A GAME PLAYER WEB PLUGIN!!!!! EXCELENT IDEA, AIN'T IT!? What?!?!

I'm thinking like some xml and embeding, and you could preveiw the game right in your browser... for saving... idk... cookies or something? good idea, no?

It's a fairly reasonable idea, and it has infact been suggested before I'm not sure if it ever happened though.

The approach GMArcade used does work, and there are a few OHR games in their list. The catch is that you have to allow Java to run freely on that site, which is not too great from a security point of view.

Teeemcee is planning a FreeBasic-to-C++ translator, which will give us a lot more portability than we have now. We have talked about trying to use Adobe Flex to translate the C++ translation into a Flash version, but that is a lot of translation, so that option should only currently be considered a Pie-In-The-Sky idea, not a real plan.

Bah! Game Maker Arcade indeed.
I hated that system, it was tedious and, for me, buggy.
And it requires a brand new plugin that you have to download and I hate it when that happens, I much prefer downloading the actual games.

If the OHRRPGCE ever gets a ton of traffic in the future it might be helpful so that people can quickly root out the good games from the bad, but isn't that what reviews are for? Go write some reviews!

well if the c++ thing works out, my school might have flex... and I might be able to figger it out...

Online games...that'd be fun. Just what my website needs...a good RPG! >_< All we need then is networking capabilities / multiplayer.

If the development team could create a webApp whereby it calls the .rpg it'd still be a great idea and I don't think it would require too much coding, after all if you've all ready compiled the game... (do we have the capability to make standalone executables?)

That is how to make a plugin framework for C++
tl;dr

Flash is the past, HTML5 is the future, as you will agree after seeing Quake II ported to HTML5+WebGL!

Flash is also not very cross compatible. (Tediously annoying). Yet I'm not sure it's the way of the future. After all, few products that have come out of w3c actually gain enough momentum before they're taking over by a better product.

I'm honestly surprised Google hasn't taken more of an interest in this product. Even if one of their developers started it off.

One to watch I suppose but I have my doubts.

Safari is supported as well. As usual, Firefox is lagging behind Webkit: it apparently supports everything required in theory, but its support is currently too buggy.

There is no public server to play it because you need to run a modified dedicated Quake 2 server which streams all the data files to your browser, a bit bandwidth intensive.

Anyhow, I was never really interested in Flash to begin with, but I am interested in Javascript :)

...javascript What?!?!

*RUN*

Tis what I normally do when I encounter that particular language. They tried to introduce it to me while learning about web development. Only thing was, every browser (then) turned it off by default. >_< Even then Mozilla labelled it as a security issue.

Awesome idea. How can I help? I suck at programming. Big grin

Or what we could do is have a section in the games page that says "download demo" and we all just make a demo version of the game that downloads in a couple seconds.

THE EASY WAY!!! Ha ha ha!
