If you have any PHP/MySQL knowledge, as well as some of the promi games, please contact me! I am looking for coders for my promi game WWII: Battle for Europe (New name)

We will be working off the Baxx Code (hopefully) and I need help. Contact me at the following:
AIM: stupidness52489
MSN: yellow_eyes52489@hotmail.com
G-mail: yelloweyes@gmail.com (E-mail only)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Bad way to ask, mate. ;)
I'd say that pretty much sums up your effort - under-thought. Start out with any codebase rather than the BAXX codebase that is up on Retto's site. Apart from being almost a year old and not fixing many bugs, it is rife with bugs and security holes. Rethink your plan - BAXX frankly sucks.

I will say that BAXX features are certainly nice, and I really don't know about the code, but Josh's doings... well, you play RWL, don't you?
Back. I think.

How, exactly, do you define 'feature'? Then list all that is new and/or what you like, in BAXX. Count, rinse, repeat.

Well, the new races are a good idea, minus the Marten and the Stoat.
HPR is a feature, but also really messes up those who industry.
etc.
Everything has a plus and a minus.
I just happen to HPR. Almost. Still need land if I'm to compete.
Back. I think.

Hmm, well, sorry to bump an old topic, but I just started getting into it again, and I've made a list of stuff that will be put into the game. But when you said that (quote) Beatles, I thought about what code I should work off of? Any suggestions. I was thinking about using this one, but I don't really want to use something that just started.

And also anywhere I can go to get some help?

You could try the original Promisance code from QMT. Though I don't really like it either. Frankly Beatles game has the best of any I've yet encountered.

As to your game, I thought it was back up already...

Well, I'll talk to Beatles sometime about this, I guess. It is back up, but I have a whole bunch of ideas for an expansion called Battle for Europe. It should be pretty sweet. Ask Veranor...he helped with some(most) of the ideas.

Well, all you have to do is download the source and install the SQL, really. I mean, beyond configuring config.php. I can help you with it if you like.

Well, Beatles, I can take care of that, I might ask for you're help on what certain files do and such. Thanks for the help w/ this, and the help you will most likely give me. :P

By all means make a topic if you wish. I'd just like it if you linked back to us on your main page. Thanks!

Ok, thanks mate. I will do that. I'll add a link to you guys. Do you just want a text link, or any like, little picture button that you want on it?

Whatever. Picture's obviously easier to spot, but might interfere with your main page design.
