Projects List

I may work on other dev teams and shelf some of these projects, or consider merging these projects with another project.

My projects use a php script that uses mysql with html template.
Or rather specific uses of php scripts, utilizing sql dbs with javascript for interfaces and html templating. There is some limited use of dhtml (often for FAQ other site pages) and a few uses of perl and other languages have been used, though often I have dropped them as inefficient.

Each of the following may end up with its own dev team, some soon. It depends upon the interest each generates.
NOTE IT IS LEGAL to use open source to produce a product that you can charge to install, charge to maintain, charge to sell. Not that this is my motivation, because it is not.


Projects

Surf for Traffic Type Scripts:
These maybe intradependant and are being developed together.
  • eTraffic Pro - Auto Traffic Exchange - feature rich (Late Beta++ working site with no recent bug reports)
  • eTraffic Select - Manual Traffic Exchange (Late Alpha- Early Beta)
  • eTraffic Gold - Combined Traffic Exchange -depends upon development of both of above -
  • Traffic Pro - Traffic Network that would allow multiple sites to utilize central server database to create a network of exchanges. (early Alpha) relies upon dev of some of above.
Related by not dependant scripts:
  • eLinks (alpha) a sort of link exchange that also employs sponsored links
  • eBanners (alpha) a sort of banner exchange that also employs sponsored banners
  • eDirectory (alpha) a directory system. likely to include use of code from both of the above. may expand to include search engine (pay per click?).
Commerce:
  • eStore (prebeta) compact online store which has paypal use and inventory control. simular scripts: oscommerce - requires sign up, bulky, slow. AND cubecart -requires signup, lacks features .
  • WebStore (alpha) online store with membership (members get discount), inv. control, full shopping cart, paypal ready all in compact form for small biz.
  • WebMall (alpha) may or may not be dependant upon dev of above.

eRealEstate (prebeta) - Actually dropped this back to alpha. The biggest problem was creating a search that really chose the options user selected, rather need stronger AND than the OR to get revelancy. this could actually turn out to be piecing together parts of php scripts from php.net to achieve our lofty goals. Or converting to utilizing an old open source code (I have a couple to check out).

eWebAuction (alpha) - creating a full feature auction site with full backend. Pref. in php.
we could utilize some of the several open source auction scripts that have existed and are no longer available (I have several I saved over the years) and be in beta with a release in a week or two.
There are eAuction, phpauction, webauction(php), ezauction(cgi) and others. Most have some major glitches. They all lack admin abilites especially ability to charge fees and accounting. Note that I am running a site using the phpauction2.0 (GNU) and have modified it some already.

NetMaster - Content Management script. PreAlpha = This project would be to produce something other than just another forum.

Possible ReWrites or Forked Dev Versions:

  1. Blockade Runners Ver Beta0.55 - currently based upon Blacknova Traders v0.50 with fixes for about a hundred bugs. Things to do include: creation of an ingame full featured admin interface. Creation of a scheduler to replace cron or Possible switch to game days. Create either a reincarnation of dead players or switch to game days for rebirth of player on new day. Future versions to be complete rewrites or even start anew.
  2. Saga of Dragons - creating a forked version of LotGD 0.9.7 - (a simular project- Dragon Saga? by one of BnTs Dev team - status closed - likely cuz hes back working on BnT.) - Mostly this would entail taking the abandoned project and working upon some issues or using 1 or even several forked versions to create a new version. At this time I am running 3 versions of this script and have setup/run/moded for several sites running this old script. So some of the work has been done, though admittedly the several forks are differant so meshing them may be difficult but it is very possible.
  3. "__?__" - have considered merging these two to create a more functional BnT type game. lol. hmmm.
About above forked projects
  1. Blacknova Traders 0.50 last version from 2003. Though since I started, they released a 0.50 (xxsome wordxx) that porportedly is a bug fix for over 300 bug reports = = simular projects worthy of mention include: Red Nova(multiple versions said to be glitchy, but offering variety of mods), Kabal Invasion-dropped as dev team is now back on BnT) FROM 2 of BnTs origonal devs- protonpack/twinkie (will be a conversion of the 0.50 to new scripting), . I am waiting for release of the protonpack to see if this project is still a valid for use of my time.
  2. LotGD 0.9.7 - A very fine script/game though it is a tongue in cheek tribute to LoRD a bbs game from eons ago. a version 0.9.8 was a series of pre-releases and this version was dropped when the dev team rewrote the entire script and started a new project. The new project was LoGD is now in version 1.0.5 with 2 bug fix releases scheduled before both dev leaders abandon the the new project. Since they fixed what they thought was wrong in version 0.9.7 with the completly new code, the 0.9.7 version has been removed from source forge. NOTE 0.9.7 was gpl GNU. The 1.0.x versions are basically private commercial. The new code is a resource hog.


on drawing board.
a variety of games playable through browser are on my list of future projects.
I have story lines, and some basics for several.
Some are turn based, strategy, role play, etc.
