I can't code a lick but I want to make a text based mmorpg, is there any engines out there that works and can actually go in a browser? I seen a few text engines but they were all downloads and single player -.- I wouldn't mind making the player DL it, but i really want it online..

Edit: I'm going to try to learn CSS, but It's extremely hard for me to grasp.

//My first C++ program -- this is a comment
#include <iostream> // std::cout
#include <ostream> // <<, std::end1

int main()
{

std::cout << "Hello, world!" << std::endl;

}

Is the hello world I was trying to make, but after i compiled it and turned it into a .exe, when I go to open it I just see a black box flash and then nothing comes up. What did I do wrong?

a text based MMORPG is normally called a MUD, what you are looking for is a MUD Codebase, you can find alot of them here:

and as for the problem with your code, you are going to need to either run it through the command prompt or try adding

after the line which prints hello world.

but don't trust me completely on that since i've never touched c++, opening through the command prompt should definately work though.

You didn't do anything wrong. The reason the screen closed is because it has finished executing your program and so it exits.

It's actually displaying the Hello World then closing really fast.

Your best bet is to run your program through the Command Prompt so that the window does not close after execution. To do this:

Go to start, run, type cmd

You'll then need to navigate to the location of your exe file. Once you are in the correct folder just type name.exe and it will run and display your text!
