| | Hi there, now ive read many posts on people asking for help on how to make a text based game, i'd like to make one myself and I know some PHP and MySQL to go for it.
Ok that out of the way, the programming languages going to be used for it will be PHP and MySQL (if you've not already guessed that)
I'm just looking for some help and stuff like that to get me on my way, im a complete beginner to this whole text based game stuff, sooo any help would be appreciated thanks!
PS: dont say go to MCCodes or anything, that website is just a bunch of kiddies making some buggy codes

Yeah, i've seen this before but had a bit of trouble with the getting your codes part, everyone seems to be saying that MCCodes are a load of rubbish, does anyone know where i can get any others? i've searched for hours on end and just thought about giving up but then was reminded how much work ive done researching already, sooo...anyone know anything?

You can increase your PHP, mysql and alot of more programming language knowledge through one of these sites: http://www.tizag.com/phpT/syntax.php <--basic http://www.w3schools.com/PHP/php_ajax_intro.asp <-- better than the previous one Also if you want to make a game you have to know how to design it, http://www.maketemplate.com/ <-- generates CSS files and you can understand what each code does by changing them, also you can just input colors and fontsizes and generate what you want. As for helping you in your game if you can offer a general idea on what your game will be,example turn based, war game, strategy game... maybe i can help

Shall we connect to a website and do it online, or is it a software you download from the master site ? Can you please give us the corresponding URL ? Yordan

Renaissance Kingdoms
A fun RPG based in the Renaissance era. (0) Recently I've started playing a game called Renaissance Kingdoms, which is a MMORPG based in the

take jobs, such as working in the mines, and eventually get some sort of field. It's certainly
not a high paced game, as you only get one "action a day (e.g. you can't work in the mines and
work at the Church within the same day) but as you get more well known you can get involved in
politics (Become your towns mayor, or join your County's Council), become a robb....

Mush And Mux's
Discussion about the Topic (0) I have discovered that some of the best text based RPG games out there, are server called MUSH's
or MUX's. Now most people don't know about MUSH or MUX, so let me explain it a little. MUSH
stands for Multi User Shared Hallucination. All MUSH's are based on a coded server, usually
using the C/C++ family of coding. Some more modern servers are built from Python and Perl although
there are very few. A MUSH is connected to using a client, or Telnet(not recommended). Once the
server is up and running, you then build within the actual server and build your gam....
