    Developing alone

    I develop alone, but I guess alone is a relative term.  Once you get going you will have plenty of users, mods, artists to bounce ideas off of.  I never had other game owners to help me figure things out, aside from reading VP dev forums, so I just used my knowledge from corporate IT work, and A...

    Hosting Providers

    I also have to say good things about Liquid Web.  I was with my previous host for almost 10 years, and in that time the company got sold a lot and their support went downhill to the point I could no longer stay with them. For point of reference, my server holds 3 games.  1 dead, and 2 with...

    Hello,   I'm in need of some lore to be written for some of the site events on my Game. I will need to hire a writer for this and was wondering what the current per word rate is for an experienced writer?  I have never hired one, so I have no idea what the current market rate is. Thanks.

    Multiple Accounts? Allowed/Disallowed?

    This will always be a problem and there aren't many good solutions. On  my games we have a function to compare IP addresses and emails to determine if accounts are related. If they are related, they are forbidden from certain actions, such as creating new accounts if they are over the limit...

    Stripe.com

    Just wondering if anyone has used Stripe.com as a payment system? I'm considering it for a project but have no experience with it.  Preliminary research of this site looks very promising. One of the things that interest me is that it accepts Apple Pay and Android Pay.  My users are always...

    GDPR Compliance

    Thank you for your clarifications!  The above quote is my main concern at this point. My games have numerous social interactive features....forums, chats, game mail, comments, etc where users may reveal any of this new vague PII data.  But we do not request it and store it for any reason.  So...

    Preferred Programming IDE/Editor

    I use Eclipse IDE. It's what I used at work for java development. So I just kept using it for web development as they have a version geared towards php.

    Non-game Related Code Question

    You dont need anything special to do that. Stylized divs with css can create those boxes. And you can insert an image wherever you need to.   Making the lines (with added text from db) might be a little awkward, but not hard. Here is a link that tells you how to make your css printable...

    Google Cloud

    I decided against it. Further research disappointed me. It is pretty much self managed, without any tools. They dont offer whm/cpanel, you have to install that yourself and pay for your own licenses (no thanks) And they dont offer tech support unless you pay for it separately. And the least...

    Does anyone have experience hosting with google cloud? I would love to hear thoughts on that. (I hear it is less expensive than dedicated servers)

    Joining Tables (SQL)

    Is it giving you any kind of error? Because if you have fields with the same name in multiple tables, and select * from those tables there may be a conflict.

    Joining Tables (SQL)

    Yes, you can join multiple tables. Typically you would include fields from those tables in your select and then use those fields in your order by. (If I am understanding what you are trying to do) Selecting * is not recommended.

    Looking For Item Artist

    Hello, I'm looking for a item artist for my existing site.  My current artist has a broken tablet, and I'm not sure if/when it will be fixed.  So I'm not sure if this is short term or long term work. Anyways, I'm looking for an artist who can do cell shaded style that matches this: If you...
