PHP Visual RPG

[porto2001]

This is the problem:

i have a visualRPG application that querys a database. The information is composed by 0 and 1 and represents a image or a document(word, pdf, etc...). Then the application transforms this information into the image itself.

This is my question, and i really don't know if it's possible or not.

I want to make this a web application, searching the database is ok..no problem. The problem comes when i try to transform the information into the image, what i have is a rpg module that makes this transformation, and i really don't know how to turn arround this problem.

Thanks

Role Playing Games or RPGs are better suited to a real language or socket program, but there are some web-page based games... Most are text based like the old Multi-User Dungons.

Your best bet would be to write it in JAVA.

The particular question you asked, about building on-the-fly images based on Database query's is an intresting one. I suppose there is a add-on (like that for building PDF's on the fly)... but I can't think of one off hand. Perhaps ImageMagic???

I know "Role-Playing Game" isn't right.

I suspect VisualRPG refers to this:

Is the type of thing that you linked to... I indeed was WAY off, I suppose the gamer inside got the best of me...

I don't think I can answer your question without more information.

What kind of graphic are you producing? What kind of data is used to produce that graphic?

On what OS are you running PHP?

Visual RPG is not "Role-Playing Game", sleipnir214 is right, it refers to

http://www.asna.com.

The visualrpg application does all the work, manipulates the information given by the database. There isn't any document or image(word, excell, gif, jpeg, tiff) present in the hard drive, this documents are all in the database, they are decomposed and composed by a rpg module that transforms the image or word document, etc in 0 and 1 and vice-versa. This application is a executable file.

I take it also that VisualRPG allows you to create reports as images? And you're wanting to know how to do the same in PHP?
