With release 0.04 I hope to have registering bugs and some security bugs fixed. I will also add chatting and the image loading page which will make the game faster for you all. The server will find the use of a new database table(hope you guys have autopurge ability for your database if not I will include a webpage the admin can goto to purge the db.)
Welcome back my people. ROE has reached the fabled 0.03 phase. In this update I made several fixes and changed it all completly to php. It even logs on to something setting things up. I will update more often now. I'll release what i plan for the next release in a day or two. I wont let you guys down as much as last time. Ive learned quite alot and hopefully this project will teach me more then I ever have before.
At the news forum at http://www.riseofevil.com/forum/ is where I am currently posting news so that people dont think the project isnt being developed lol.
I hate to mention it because its real mean doing so. I have managed to track down and kill exactly 93% of the bugs but one is really tricky. I can only fix it by switching to v0.03 so.... I am now instead of making the game all asp I'll port it to php while fixing bugs along the way using the same concept and drop v0.02 completly. This is good mainly because php is more widely accepted and finding php/mysql hosts is very easy. I will also (once I set it all up) be able to give a serverside install package -- using a php page. The next version does not have a set time to come out as every time I set a time it always freaking gets delayed but I promise a less buggy version then the current one most definatly. And the graphics will not go down hill either in fact my artists are working full time to bring me the best they can.
The bug free version of v0.02 , 0.021, will be released this thursday. It will take slightly longer then normal because most of my programmers are on vacation because of 4th of july. I am fixing bugs real fast even with that and I might even make the version available on wendsday if I try hard enough. I encourage everyone to download the first version v0.01 until we can get v0.021 out. I have gotten emails from people who found the bugs and I have thanked them all for the help they have given. I would say their names here but they said they didnt want credit for some reason. confuzzled me anyways.
It seems that V0.02 was full of big bugs that will take a while to fix and I believe I should fix them in asp before porting it to php. It would save lots of time.
The next release will be released in a few days time and will not as was expected have any new theme or update to it. It is only me porting it from asp/ms access to php/mysql. This will allow for more fuller capabilities for the game. As a smaller note www.riseofevil.com is being switched to a diferent server and this is why you are not able to view it currently It should be back up in a day or two.
Yes I got it out before the day was over. It includes everything the origional had only this one has a read me to set it all up. New additions to this release contain, Chat, Logging In, Registering, New Databases.
Rise of Evil now has a new site on the web!
http://www.riseofevil.com Its the projects new site and will continue to be it for the remainder of the games life.
It seems that I feel like putting the webpage up as I finish the pages. I only have 3 up so far but I will inform people when I get the rest up.
The site for Rise of Evil will officially be up by thursday afternoon at 9:00 pm. The next release of the game is schedueled for release the date following and will include logging in, registering, and chat. Other features will be included but dont expect too much other then these as alot of these updates take a bit to get done.
This new release contains a few files but doesnt really do anything it just shows where we are in development and what we truely have complete at this time.
The project is finally going. It has taken a while to get up and running though. Hopefully soon I will be able to get the testserver up and running :)
