So everyone who is currently a member here probably knows about the Cimera Engine, one of the main things I'm working on here on Dystopia Productions. Since I have started back on the site I have been putting a good deal of time into getting this engine off the ground and I'm happy to announce today that I have moved a step forward in that, I've got the full AJAX/PHP MySQL integration done.
You might be asking what exactly that is, and what does it mean. Basically it's the backend scripting that controls the ability to update your profile (in the RPG of course, your character profile) in real time, without page refreshes, etc. In a few days when I finish the dialogs and all the tools I will have a demo version of the Jupiter Jazz profile part of the Chimera Engine up for everyone to play around with.
EDIT: I have started an official prgress log for the Chimera Engine, to track work I've done as well as allow myself to leave notes on things I need to work on. Also, at this point I'm going to begin the search for a few Beta Testers to help me debug the engine as it is built. I'd like to have 3-5 people I will post more on this later.
