ExeBB

[ShadowUK]

I was thinking, looking at some forum software like vBulletin, phpBB, myBB, SMF and Invision Power Board, It hit me that all of them require PHP and a webserver and for vBulletin and Invision Power Board, a license.

Then it hit me, Why not use the power of AutoPlay Media Studio to create an EXE forum that gets data from a single SQL database maybe?

here's how it can go.

• ??? - Someone who can build the database
• ??? - Links the Database to the program and User Registration + Login
• ShadowUK - Graphics, MySQL Database Hosting, Publisher
• ??? - Reply, Quote Features
• ??? - Moderation Features and User Titles

With AMS 7.0 we can use the SQLite plugin to do this, Anyone willing to help me with this project, contact me on one of the following options.

PS: I'm doing a little more than it says here, I'm the project leader and I'm determined to get this on the road and if we're lucky and we get a team we can get this project finished.

can do it all

First of all i want to say its all possible and ive done this very simply. now im creating an online multiplayer game and it uses the login and account management system that ive build earlier for my first simple forum. i think i might recreate that forum someday and then ill release the source code of it.
if you start with it. please pm me and i will help you with developing. :yes :lol

Edit: just read the second part of the post of you and im in to develop it with you. please pm me if you are interested

I'm the project leader

I hate it when somebody says that


SQLlite? uhhmmm nope. use MySQL. With SqlLite you cqnt achive this

I know that i have to use MySQL instead of SQLite, my bad. Bit tired atm, anyway I'm 'leading' the project because I link everything together, for example I have to send the project files to members and keep everything in order and do work myself when noone else is online or they're all busy doing things for it i'll be working on artwork and coding, etc.

Why hating it when somebody sais that he's the leader? what if its true? hehe

[FoxLeader]

Well, I'm way to busy ATM (I'm working on a JavaScript + XHTML + PHP and other languages Web OS, and I have studies^^) but I totally support you. It's a nice and interesting idea so even if I can't work on this with you, I'll be avaible for some testing if needed.

Intresting project idea, but i dont really have the time to donate to this project right now, altho i'll give whatever support i can :yes

c'mon, think "out of the box", if coding a custom server to host the BB it can run on whatever database system you want, even a ini file system, csv or whatever you want

IMO it isent a ExeBB if it needs external server support, if its just running of a sql server like any other BB i ask...... whats the point ?

IMO a ExeBB that is self contained and hosts its own files is a worthwhile project, perfect for clans and other closed communities, and its not to much work to code a custom server for this kind of thing.

just my 2 pence

[sim]

U know this project should be restarted lol :P

God when we talked about these projects i never thought they would take a impact like this, shadow get online all the time again lol we came up with some made ideas and then you made me cry making them real lol.

I still have my first try at something like this. I remeber you showing me this and just stoping lol.

Well i hope to see this alive again good luck with it and i think your new lua option might help you here also

It is not a good idea. What's so hard to install PHP, or shell out $9 a month for a host? It's not that expensive. You want to implement a web server in AMS, but you forget that you are stretching AMS too much - it can not ever match the performance of even lighthttpd, since it has a lot of overhead. Lua's interpreter is **** slow, it won't be able to handle more than 30-40 concurrent users.

Where did I say I was implementing a web server in AMS..?

This is a good idea in theory but even I know it won't really work without a lot of effort especially because the intention of the project was not to have to use PHP/MySQL.

[LucasTheDuck]

you don't need a webserver... you only need genrate a pages and show in any navigator object, whn I finish Cef project you can done directly on it, but now you can store page skeltons and functions to complete them, and show it in web object.

For desktop apps i think that could be great change the forum functions for real-time talking and tools to share easily files and other things that could be very hard on website
