Ziroc, another feature that the UBB 6 has is the ability for members to choose a "genre" when they first log on. Their rank, based on number of posts, will then determine their ranking. Eg. you could choose a genre from: Fighter, Thief, or Mage, and each genre would have their own ranking. So, a Mage might have: 0-5 Neophyte 6-50 Apprentice 51-100 Diviner 101-150 Enchanter 151-200 Conjurer 201-250 Evoker 251-300 Necromancer A fighter might have: 0-5 Bum 6-50 Brawler 51-100 Swordmaster and so on. You'd need to modify the ubbmisc.cgi, ultimate.cgi, ubb_library2.pl, register_lib.pl and ubb_library2.pl files. Cool, huh! ------------------ My name is Memnoch.

Sounds good to me, I'll head over to infopop and check into some other UBB6 mods as well. (See if they updated older UBB5 mods too) (Hoping) Ziroc |

Modify both the ubbmisc.cgi and ultimate.cgi file to add a new additional profile field. I believe the stock UBB has 14 profile fields already. Have the user select which title they wish to begin at (Fighter, Mage, Thief, etc) when they register. Edit your ubb_library2.pl file to include a check based on the # of posts per level. (example) if ($thisprofile[7] > 20) { if ($CustomStatus eq "Paladin") { $ThisStatus = "Paladin Tard Beginner "; } } else { $ThisStatus = $ThisStatus; } } Something along those lines. I can try and get you the full mod code if you want it. ------------------ My name is Memnoch. And your name is...destined to be a footnote in the sands of time.

That sounds like it would be really cool, so it would be a little more personal, that having 4 different Drizzts, and elminsters
