Originally posted by Xkeeper We can avoid the issue of FTP access for a looong long time, and possibly altogether, very easily.

I appoint you official ROM hacking wikie expert, and no, you don't get paid . Hit me up on AIM or IRC sometime if you're interested in helping, or even if you're not. |

*Reads first posts* I may join too (if that's ok), since I have a Mega Man 2 hack which will be released soon, and I need a place to put it, these archives are the perfect place. As some of you know, I have my own pages at Geocities (http://www.geocities.com/durfarc), but since that page always runs out of bandwith, the download can't only be stored there... |

I'm pretty sure that all of the ideas are possible. Geez... Can't wait to see this done! This will be the greatest thing in the Rom Hacking history ever! Gimme a task already! |

Ok. first of all, I will start making a site layout as soon as possible. And also, I have my own Cpanel. I would be GLAD to host this site for you guys. here is the info on what my cpanel has. Account Info Subdomains - 1 / unlimited Parked Domains - 0 / 10 Addon Domains - 0 / 10 MySQL Databases - 4 / unlimited Postgresql Databases - 0 / unlimited Disk usage - 38.72 Megabytes SQL Disk usage - 5.38 Megabytes Disk space available - Unlimited Megabytes Bandwidth usage (current month) - 602.28 Megabytes Email Accounts - 0 / unlimited Email Forwarders - 2 Autoresponders - 0 Mailing Lists - 0 / unlimited Email filters - 0 Ftp Accounts - 0 / unlimited General server information Operating system - Linux Service Status - Click to View Kernel version - 2.4.20-31.9bigmem Machine Type - i686 Apache version - 1.3.33 (Unix) PERL version - 5.8.1 Path to PERL - /usr/bin/perl Path to sendmail - /usr/sbin/sendmail Installed Perl Modules - Click to View PHP version - 4.3.9 MySQL version - 4.0.20-standard cPanel Build - 9.9.8-CURRENT 44 Theme - cPanel X v2.5.0 Documentation - Click to View cPanel Pro - 1.0 (RC1) So If you guys can use my cpanel and want to, just let me know. I want to help in any way I can. And btw, I got it for free, so you guys don't have to pay or anything. We'd still need to get a domain name though, I can't provide that.. I checked on the Cpanel main site, and apparantly Cpanels are quite expensive. I was REALLY lucky..I've had it for more than a year, and i would have had to pay like....over 1000 bucks...thank god.

yes. I know about .tk. But I don't really like it, it puts the domain name on every link on ur site, even affiliates. I don't know if all domains are like that, or if there is a way to block that though, but I am sure others here would know. | |||

If you're talking about the page title, it can be bypassed by adding target="_top" to the links. |

well, i can say without almost 100% certainty that this website should be placed on a more prominent, and paid for, hosting service. If this expense must come out of my own pocket, then it must. But i feel strongly on this. The issue of domain is just something to keep in mind, we still have a lot of planning and work to do before we really need to act on it. Originally posted by danOriginally posted by Gavin yah, i feel you. we have a lot of structual planning to do on a whole, and the wiki is just one piece of the puzzel.

I'm willing to help out with this kind of stuff. PHP coding, database modeling (contrary to most people even having done development on this very board, I'm educated in the subject and got the highest grade in that class), temporary hosting of the project; database account, ftp account, website. (Per "romhack.wootest.net" or something similar until we get a 'real' host.) I think this project should also have a centralized game documentation part. As in collaborative documentation of level formats, tile formats, asm code, etc. Just clarification of a part that I -really- think should be in there. I also think that we stages to roll out features in should be laid out. First basic user code, then basic hack code, then teams, then more advanced hack code, then documentation, etc. |

Alright, lemme go ahead and clarify something real fast. As long as I am the main coder (which I probably will be for a while here), I am not looking for help. I am looking for suggestions on things to put in. I've just been thinking about this a lot and I was beginning to kinda dislike having asked for help and such like this, given the fact we don't currently need it and it'd very likely slow me down more than help... |

okk. Than just say it. Here i'll HELP you do it. " Don't ask to help, we don't want your help. We have everything under control. We made this thread just to let you know what we are doing. We dont want you guys to help us so that it might be better than possible." So you're basically saying you want to do all the work. I mean, based on your site, no offense, but I bet some people can make a much better layout then that. I am not trying to start a fight or argument or anything...But if people want to help you, you should accept it. Maybe the results will be better. |

...nice idea. Very nice idea. If this is done, this will be one of the many improvments in the rom hacking community. It will be even helpful with the "I can help you with..." thing. That will helps a whole lot for people to pinpoint users that will help with specific stuff that that person needs. This would be nice to see working. Really nice and incredible idea. |

ok. Like I said, I don't want to start an argument or anything. It's my opinion. And whatever, if you want to do it all on your own, then so be it. Good luck. I still give 100% support. | |||

I disagree. Assembling a small panel of PHP and SQL experts to review and complete the project seems the most efficient way to achieve our desired results. Placing a large project in the hands of a single person is only inviting slower and possibly less professional developement. 2 heads are better than 1, and 3 or 4 aren't bad either. Also this project is all about serving the community, and as such, it would be fitting if it was built by the community. Originally posted by Jesper Jesper that's fantastic, thanks for your interest in the project . And yes, i completely agree with the centralized game hacking resources. When this idea was first concieved, i believe that the hacking resource was in fact the backbone of the proposed site, i just went off on a small tangent about the emphasis on the 'community' portion, heh. About feature developement: thanks, i think you can offer the exact kind of experience we will need: someone who knows the in's and out's of working on a (as it seems to me) large project like this. I would like to get a discussion going, probably on IRC or whatever other popular chating medium the base coding/managing team uses, sometime soon as i believe this subject lays right in the thick of what we need to plan out to get this moving. |
