Job Overview -

Develop C++ bot(s) or application(s) with PHP Web page support for a
private, free game world. Would prefer coders who are intimately
familiar with Active Worlds and its functionality and limits. Will only
consider people who are EXCELLENT coders, who are eager to explore a new
3d gaming adventure and who are excited about contributing to the
creation of something/someplace cool in AW!

You'll be hired to create bot(s) that will work in conjunction with the
new version (not yet released!) active worlds SDK:
http://www.activeworlds.com/sdk/
You will also need PHP(?) and HTML/Web design skills for creating a
remotely-updated, game-related Web pages.

Important Note: Due to the gaming requirements of the bot and AWs
ever-changing functionality, the application must allow changes to be
made by non-programmers at a later date. Although the Preston is far too
limited in its uses, please reference the Preston bot for an idea of the
type of GUI that is preferred: http://www.imabot.com/preston.htm

System backbone:
Global bot management system / PHP Web Page with the ability to maintain

money, and items from other programs.

Budget:
- Negotiable! - Willing to pay a fair price for an excellent, original
application!

Wish List:
The IDEAL bot(s) will combine:
- the ease-of-use/ease of programming of the Preston Bot
http://www.imabot.com/preston.htm
- the script-handling and world monitoring capabilities of the Xelagot
http://www.imatowns.com/xelagot/
- the overall flexibility of the Magsbot
http://www.turtleflight.com/magine/mb.html

This project requires the creation of a NEW, never before shared
application. Near-clones of the above, already-existing programs will
NOT be considered!

Do you think you can create such a creature?
