Looking for one Dev for Upcoming Interlude Mid


Faith

Question

Well this section seems to be pretty slow these days. There are a couple "real" OFF devs that are roaming around MXC I know none of interested to join a serious project?

 

Updated:

The project is evolving, growing, and changing really fast right now and I do not have time to keep updating this especially with such a lack of interest by those few devs I was hoping I might get a reply from. If something changes and you guys decide you would like to help feel free to PM me or have a look at my sig.

I think instead of "Dev" he means script guy, to work with plain text files.

Why do you say that?

Cause there is a realy big difference between a scripter that works with AI and the .txt files inside Script folder and T-SQL (this last one not allways known by all), and a skilled developer, with RCE and C++ knowledge that can do anything with the files, and understands the whole framework. Of course if you bought the files and extender from Vanganth or from Dear Fr3ddy, you don't need a "Developer" but a scripter, cause all other stuff is done with the money you spent.

 

Of course beware, there are also people that are just good in copy and paste, and they don't have any idea about AI or scripts. Also there are people that try to appear to be a developer or scripter and don't have any idea, or scripters trying to appear to be developers, i know this sounds crazy and weird but it happens and realy often.

I know the difference :P While right now most of the work is scripting/sql in the near future there are more plans that would involve actual assembly work if all goes well. This is why I would rather have a real Dev join us now  that can do both rather than have a scripter now and than try and find a Dev in a few months time.

 

Thanks for the heads up :) I am aware of most of the "copy&paste devs" running around on mxc and won't have anything to do with them.

    • From my personal experiences 🙂   Few months ago I decided to create my own Essence project. Project needs website, and I do not specialize in frontend development (t.y. i can make web work, but it won't be pretty for eye). So I search and find a guy in Discord, which claims he can make me a good looking HTML website for 30 EUR, prove some screenshots from his previous work. I agree. 1 week later, I get my HTML website, make few changes to contents, update URLs and upload it to FTP. Site looks good, I am happy that this headache is no more.   Few months passes. I randomly crawl through other Essence server websites scouting for good ideas for my own project. Suddenly one of russians project website opens and.. it's the same website as one I have 😉 perfectly absolutely same layout, colours, etc etc etc. I contact my guy to ask what the hell, to get blocked 😉  So I find a weekend worth of my time. Find HTML5 boilerplate generator and ask it to include Bootstrap 5 and some other stuff. Open Bootstrap documentation, drink two energy drinks on instant and start working my backend-inspired HTML black magic... Once I found suiting firefly effect for header, result looked oikay for me: Absolutely no magic or beauty here, but: * Unique (and probably nobody cares to rip it) * Done for free in ~10 hours by non-frontend dev * Most modern browsers friendly * Completely static content, loads instantly. No PHP at all * Sidebar statuses (online, pvp, pk) are pulled from account manager REST API endpoint and is cached for 5 minutes. Account manager runs separately from website frontend and has access to server DB. Where could/will it get better? * Code in Vue instead of HTML - time concerns only, but Vue is superior compared to HTML/PHP for supporting desktop/mobile, easing development by miles. Need to learn how to use it properly. * Way to manage content from backend - in my instance I think account manager is not really meant for that. Vue can help here too - there are components for content building. * Currently default Bootstrap components are used. Would be nice to have custom and more vibrant buttons. Guess what, Vue can help here too.   tl;dr don't buy 30EUR website, it will be ripped or shit. you better make your own website. Be curious. I am backend developer, I obviously have general idea how frontend works. But imho everyone who can make L2 server by editing NPC HTMLs, also can make their own simple website. ChatGPT and other AIs are your friends. Bootstrap. jQuery documentations are your friends. And when you feel good and comfortable with HTML, if you like, you can continue learning Vue, or going backend. Now, as for the top sites. You really need to invest money to make new project work. I mean really, really much money. For this concept to work, top website itself must get visited. But if you can sort that your top site would be popular amongst players, then it's a really very simple concept, as far as current 2004-ish sites goes. I think simple, working concept of this, maybe without proper frontend, but with implemented backend logics (add/edit/disable server, sort by votes count (top list), vote for server with verification, callback to server endpoint - all of that can be done using Symfony in mostly 5 days, with lots of breaks for coffee and a smoke 😉. Experienced mid frontend dev would make a Vue/React frontend for it in another 5 days. it's really really simple concept 🙂
