EDIT 12/27/15: SWITCHED TO v83. We were doing pre-dev testing for LeaderMS, and we realized that the source is complete troll. If anyone is interested, please post below.

EDIT 12/25/15: I DO NOT NEED DEVELOPERS ANYMORE.

Hello again. I am now looking for Pre-Development testers. We are going to be using a publicly released v62 source, but before we go into development, we must know the features of the source. We must know what is not GMS-Like and what is broken. We also need to test out rates to figure the best possible combination. I will be looking to pick GMs from the Pre-Development and/or later test pools, so if you would like to be a GM, know that you have to stick around for a bit. We are going to try to test almost every aspect of the server, kind of like real game play, but initially with higher rates to quicken the process. Then, after that we will test the rates to pick the best one for a hard-core, yet fun server. The more the merrier. We will pick out a maximum of 20 Pre-Dev testers, but I doubt that anyone is going to want to volunteer much.

After we Pre-Development test, we will go ahead and 'clean' the public source we have to restore it to GMS-Like and to fix any original GMS-Like features that we feel needs absolute fixing. After this, we will go into developing custom features.

After essential custom features have been coded, pre-dev testers and other new testers will be called back for private alpha testing. When we pass, we will open for public beta testing.

Long story short:
1. Pre-Development testing - testing public source as it is & testing again after essential GMS-like features have been fixed.

2. Alpha Testing - testing custom features that will be coded

3. Public Beta Testing - will be the time when we recruit GMs and launch for public beta test.

Hello. I am looking for one or two developers who is experienced in Java and Javascript.

I will be developing as well. We will communicate via skype.

Requirements: Honest, professional, has previous experience, and is cooperative.

Previous Experience:

Skype: (If preferred, can pm me skype after posting app here.)

Please do not pm me applications. Post it in the thread.

So, I had the idea of making a v62 hard-core custom server. I came out with the same idea as v83. I was able to get around 14 people playing at all times during the course of 2 weeks or so for public beta testing. It needed some work so we went into reconstructing, but never had the opportunity to tweak it all. I am looking for some devoted developers who are willing to work with me.

I have experience in private servers, and have been relatively successful before. Back in 2010, when MoograMS was still around, I was the owner of KineticStory v83. I remember being rank 5 or 6 on gtop100. This is the screen shot I have of the mid progress:



I believe the highest I hit was 98 players if I remember correctly. The server was alive for around 2 and a half months if I remember correctly. I personally killed the server after the server became too hard to manage as that was my first ever decent sized server. This time around, I am planning on working on the server for a long time and keeping it up as long as I can.



The website part is already finished with a private log in screen. Here is the screen shot of what the cms looks like after logging in.



It wasn't very grand yet, but here is also a screen shot of MapleWars v83's FM:


I value economy very much and would like to have a balanced and on-going economy.

If you think that you would be up for it, please let me know. I will give you more details one-on-one via skype.

Additional details about me & the server:
Experience in Java, Javascript, MySQL, C, C++, Html, Graphics design, Website design & General Server management

I am a female computer science major.

I own a dedicated server and host at home.

I would be interested in the testing phases but just know I'm very busy on and off over the next week, what with the New Year.

My timezone is Central Standard and I'll PM you my Skype if you want it.
