So for example after searching for all albion Q95+, 16+dps slash swords, you could download a zip file that would contain them all, then just extract in the spelcalc dir and you got em all

Yes that could be a nice feature, the Item/Quest database might not be ready for release.. I will try though

And the site will be PHP/mySQL based so the script needs to be written in PHP, CGI isn't an option in the beginning. And the only extra PHP module (other than the standard modules) is GDlib 2.0.1.

From someone who sorted out the old daocnation site, good luck

If you go ahead the one thing I'd say is to make absolutely certain that people who say they want to be involved etc now really are, and aren't likely to drop out when it actually comes to creating content. That was a huge headache.

Thanks for the good luck . And yes I'm aware that I'm highly dependent of content providers, but I have faith in the community.. and if all fails well then I tried and can move on

DAOC Nation

This was a Euro-based site that was set up on BW, I believe. If you want to get something else going you might be able to get in touch with the BW people and revive it? The servers and bandwidth are already there to be used, I guess

Looks nice . Though I allready have servers and bandwidth, and its faster for me to setup what I have now than to revive some existing site (I'd have to add lots of stuff I allready have running). Besides there might be some copyright/credit problems. The site and the underlying code I hopefully will get up and running will be under the GNU/GPL license which basicly means, free for all .

But i'll certainly look at the site to get ideas, if BW doesn't mind!

Hmmf
Seriously, if I can be of service with my mad coding skillz ( ) I'm sure I'll hear from you
