I'm wanting to start a game like www.street-legends.com or a game of that type, but I'm totally confused on what languages to learn and in which order. I know the basics of HTML but thats about it.

I haven't a clue how to make the Regiser page's or Login page's or how to make it interactive for the users.

Could someone please point out what I'm supposed to learn in order to make a sucessfull mafia game.

Thanks, Dillon.

Ok all "Mafia Game" related topics should be on auto delete. Not trying to be mean, and i dont know if your the same person as before but there has been about 7 posts about making a mafia game. Its simple, first you must learn a programming language. Get good at it, and code yourself a game.

Well im not that person, but the point is I don't know which language to learn. Obviously some language's must be better than others for what I want to do..?

Hi Dillon,

Everything you need to get started with this can be found in the following thread...

Building a PHP Game - Where to get started

There I talk about what you need to get started on a game like this, what to look for and how to go about tackling your first PHP related game. I have helped create a few PHP games and do have experience in setting them up and testing. If you have further questions about game mechanics you can ask in the game programming section. If you have questions about PHP syntax, ask in our PHP forum and if you have general website display issues, ask in HTML/CSS/Javascript forum.

I hope we can help you out in the future.

Thanks!

There is a multi-part tutorial on this in the PHP Tutorials section. Here is the first part.

With that we'll close this necro'd topic.
