Webdesign Marlex AAC

[Feloth]

Greetings,
I am soon releasing my very own AAC system. I recon it should be complete within August sometime. It will be working for TFS 0.3.x and there will be a Lite version for TFS 0.2.x
I have attached a screenshot of the login page which is all I am going to reveal for now. This is just to give you an idea of how we see the system. We are focusing on keeping server's as "mystique" as possible. So there will not be any Official templates which looks like RL Tibia and ect.

But I am now asking the community of Otland of what they wish to see in a AAC system? What is it that you wish right now?

Features:
- Powerful Admin panel, Say goodbye to old fashion config files.
- Powerful Multilanguage system which is already included.
- All of the Official templates are good looking and not junk.
- Better security then most of the AAC's out there.
- It features AJAX/Javascript to make sure every information is up to date.
- A very advanced forum where your Tutors may report posts and and Gamemasters may give other users warning directly from the website.
- Powerful Addon administration, no more need to edit files. All Addons made by official releasers will be in Addon packs so all you have to do is install it using the Admin panel.
And alot more...

Features added 16.08.09:
###############
- Addon system, people that will make addons will be able to just add it into a seperate folder. The system will then check if the addon has been installed and it will use those files instead of the standard ones. Meaning if you want to make a addon that say "Hello" on the login page. All you do is add a folder in "Addons" folder with your addon name and then just add the file login.php to it. Then the system will use that file as login instead of the standard one. If you then decide to uninstall it, the system will use the standard login file instead.
###############
- Themes section, it will be easy to make templates for people. You do not need to know any PHP as you can just type in %servername% in the .tmpl file and it will show the server name already configured in the database. We will also make a tutorial for all the current functions.
###############
- Admin panel, you will have your very own admin panel in the back of the site. So if your website is www.domain.com your admin panel will be accessable by www.domain.com/admin/ and you may login with your Gamemaster account.
###############
- Login site, you may be able to turn on/off the login site as you wish. The login site will be more secure and will not show alot on information about your OT. If you turn it off people may see highscores and such just as any other AAC system. But all themes will support the login function.
###############

Credits will have to go to Gesior and Talaturen as I am using their systems as basic and completly rewriting it. Say goodbye to old fashion tables and bad codings.

The remaining language files will be released later on so people may translate. Translators get their name in the copyright and credits.

Marlex AAC is now the project's decided name.

Sounds great. What I wish to see is that it should be very easy to change layout or make my own. Maybe like 10 layouts included

Btw, great project.

Yes, actually I am doing it so you will be able to install themes and your users may choose themselfs. If you do not want them to choose you can turn it off in the Administration panel

Like most forums have these days!
Thanks for the suggestion!

It looks very nice but also similar to World of Warcraft login page.

I was going to develop acc maker as well but I think my company will be in development of Web based game fully in Ajax.

Yes, it's inspired by World of Warcraft. It's actually cool you saw it due to the fact that I used Warhammer Online images and not World of Warcraft images.

You have a designer's eye, I have also seen your work for other AAC's so I will make sure to give you a sneak preview of themes files when the time closes up.

This ACC will be the best. It's programmed by very skilled programmers, and tested by great testers

I'm looking forward to try it too!

Tell us something more about the languages used.

Are you gonna use POT or own functions or classes?

Will that be OOP?

What library are you going to use for Ajax scripts?

I can give you my idea that I was going to use on my acc maker, make a events folder and in this events folder make other folders called such as: onBeforeHeaders or, onPageLoad and thing like this, people will make there PHP files and those files will be automically included at the right point, so the hole folder will be scanned by PHP and for each will be included.


So that would be good for example if someone wants to make fast redirect so he puts events onHeaders and add header with location.

Same thing with modules, for example character signature, so you make folder modules and put signature script there, the modules have access to all functions and classes also variables, and the script would be fired at the right point.

Is Multilanguage system using GeoIP Location?

 

[Feloth]

Is Multilanguage system using GeoIP Location?

No, this multilanguage system is based upon people choosing their own language. A GeoIP system would slower the system down and we want to make it as fast as possible.

However, your choice is saved in sessions aswell as cookies so it will remember your choice! =)

I hope you do a good job ^^
