Hello people.

 

I am doing something like marketing research.

I am experienced web developer and designer and I am wondering if people would buy my L2JCMS* (which is not coded yet, just want to see what people are thinking about the idea).

* The name will be different. I heard there is a CMS called like that.

 

The CMS will have many options and I will make the admin panel super user friendly (something like Wordpress if you have used it).

 

You will be able to:

- add new pages

- new links to the menu(s)

- show server statistics

- upload server patches for downloading

- upload players screenshots into a gallery

- append YouTube videos

- change website templates (themes)

- it may have nWatch integrated in order to show more live info from the server

- you will be able to include php files in certain places in the website, just in case you need it

- the website login can be attached to server login or can be separate login

- server registration can be done through the CMS if your server doesn't use autocreation

 

and more things which I have to think for.

 

The CMS will be plugin based and the main functionality will be just the mandatory one. Extra functionality will be done with plugins.

 

What I want from you?

* Suggest more things to add / remove

* Suggest a price for this CMS

* Tell me if it sounds good enough for you to buy it (I'm not asking you to tell me if you will buy it, just if you think it's good enough for you)

 

A note about the price. Please don't suggest prices like 30-60 euro. I am working as web developer since 2006 and I value my work. I work with real prices.

Price must be in rage of 60e because it is CMS and you want to sell many copies of it and have license for 1 domain only!

 

If you want to make CMS look at StressWeb cheap to buy but only 1 license for 1 domain and you can not transfer licence!

I got the idea, but don't tell me there aren't gonna be people sending the CMS all over the place. Few people will buy it and then what can I do to protect my rights?

 

Also don't forget coding such a complicated CMS is not an easy task.

It will take a month or even more (if I don't have a lot of free time).

 

I had two servers and I made the websites for them. These two websites are like the CMS I am talking about, but I will have to start from 0, because I have ideas to improve it.

 

PS: Please answer to the questions I've asked.

License only for 1 domain :) This is how you can protect it!

You can also add some protection like StressWeb where you can see who is using your software and on what domain!

 

I still think for good CMS price can not be high!

You want many ppl to buy at and can also sell Templates/Custom Mods to earn more money with it!

 

Most CMS make money from mods and templates!

 

Like in gaming industry companies like Sony when they sell gaming console they dont really make money,they make money when selling games for console :)

If you want to make decent money make it for OFF files not L2J as the serious servers that are willing to spend a bit of money usually run OFF.

This is a good logic.

To bad I didn't have any touch to L2OFF, but I'm sure it's not that different. I have to use different type of database (MSSQL), but this is not a problem either.

 

So far I don't see any point to code the CMS since nobody likes the idea.

No point to waste that much time in a product which is not gonna sell and pay back.

now think how many ppl use L2OFF and how many use L2J

if you can spend money you will never buy CMS but will order custom website for yourself with all scripts included!

    • Hello everyone  How are you all doing? I'd like to share with the community an open-source project I've been working on intensely: the **L2 Phantom AI Manager**. Tired of those static bots that just stand still in the city or sink into the map because of Geodata? Me too! That's why I developed a modular Phantom system with real Artificial Intelligence, initially designed for **L2J Mobius Essence (RoseVain)**, but which can be adapted to other chronicles. Main Features Modular architecture: the system is split into focused files such as PhantomAI, PhantomEngine, PhantomFactory, PhantomEquipment, PhantomHuntingSpots, PhantomGeo, PhantomMenu, and more. Automatic creation: create 10 or 50 phantoms from the menu or commands. XML persistence: automatically created phantoms are saved into PhantomPlayers.xml, so they keep loading after server restarts. Batch startup: .pstart and Start 10 load only 10 phantoms at a time. Batch disconnect: disconnect 10 active phantoms without shutting down the whole system. Origin towns: new phantoms spawn using PlayerTemplate.getCreationPoint(), respecting race and class. Geodata-safe spawning: spawn points use NPC-like coordinate validation to avoid under-map or floating characters. Real datapack spots: reads data/stats/npcs and data/spawns to build level-based hunting locations. Bad target filtering: ignores Training Dummy, tutorial objects, chests, and fake farm targets. Smart relocation: if a phantom cannot find useful mobs, it relocates to another spot for its level. Level goals: phantoms receive leveling goals, return to town, recover resources, and go back to farming. Mage MP rest mode: mages rest until MP is recovered; in PvP they try to escape when out of mana. Skills and buffs: phantoms try to use offensive skills and self buffs such as Might, Shield, Focus, Haste, Empower, Acumen, Wind Walk, Chant, Song, and Dance. Varied gear packs: gear packs by grade for mages and fighters, with multiple variants to avoid visual clones. Automatic shots: randomized Soulshot and Spiritshot restocking by class and grade. Inventory cleanup: unnecessary items are removed automatically while preserving Adena, shots, and equipped gear. PvP and PK behavior: some phantoms are aggressive, may become PK, and attacked phantoms try to defend themselves. Optional AI chat: optional Google Gemini integration for short social replies. TXT logs: the menu displays log state and can enable/disable logging. GM Menu Use .pmenu to open the control panel. Current options: Start 10 Disconnect 10 Create 10 Create 50 Reload XML Stop All Enable Log / Disable Log The menu also shows: active phantom count; XML ID count; current TXT log state. Commands .pmenu - opens the control panel. .pstart - starts 10 phantoms from XML. .pstop - removes all active phantoms. .pstop10 - disconnects 10 active phantoms. .pload - reloads PhantomPlayers.xml. .pcreate 10 - creates, starts, and saves 10 phantoms to XML. .pcreate 50 - creates, starts, and saves 50 phantoms to XML. .pm Name Message - sends a private message to a phantom. .pdebug - toggles TXT logging. Logs Logs are created in the GameServer log/ folder: log/PhantomManager.txt - global historical log. log/PhantomManager-yyyyMMdd-HHmmss.txt - separate log for each session. Useful logged events include: new level goals; travel to hunting spots; town rest; mob attacks; PvP defense; shot restocking; inventory cleanup; AI exceptions with stacktrace. Main Files PhantomManager.java - commands, logs, and bootstrap. PhantomEngine.java - start, stop, spawn, respawn, batches, and AI loop. PhantomAI.java - farm, PvP, PK, rest, targeting, and movement decisions. PhantomConfig.java - routes, gear, shots, and XML persistence. PhantomFactory.java - automatic character creation. PhantomEquipment.java - buffs, progression, shots, and inventory cleanup. PhantomHuntingSpots.java - real datapack NPC/spawn loader. PhantomGeo.java - geodata-safe coordinate handling. PhantomState.java - temporary phantom memory. PhantomMenu.java - GM HTML panel. PhantomBypass.java - menu button handling. PhantomChat.java - messages and optional Gemini integration. Copy custom/PhantomManager into: dist/game/data/scripts/custom/PhantomManager/ Place PhantomPlayers.xml in: game/config/Custom/PhantomPlayers.xml Compile scripts or restart the GameServer. Use .pmenu to create, start, and manage phantoms. https://github.com/miacodeweb/L2-Phantom-AI
