Xyclaeth and Ensiform I got some business ideas I Will discuss with you in private (Free-wise)

On IRC

Things that could be considered major that will probably get done at some point that I can think of:

 

(In no specific order)

• Fix/clean/gut the sound system to split it off to base / OpenAL (use alsoft + EFX)
• Persistent console history for clients
• HTTP/FTP download redirection (using cURL) in the client engine.  URL to use set on server
• IPv6 support
• Rend2
• Shared Renderers
• VOIP support (from ioq3? network compatibility issues somewhat?)  -- Long ways out

Any other things we want to do like re-factoring and splitting stuff off into static libraries to be more shared is too behind the scenes where users aren't going to care so much in terms of bumping big version numbers.

Major versions should be kept for major changes like the ones posted above.

.1 decimals for smaller bugfixes

.01 decimals for bugfixes affecting the bugfixes above

etc?

As I alluded to in a status update, Raven's master server came back online briefly and it's now running on the Microsoft Azure cloud platform. Seeing as the IP address was only flipped over recently, I'm guessing they're actively experimenting with bringing the implementation over to today's standards of scalability and stability.

 

It will be up soon, and I don't think it'll fall back down so easily in the future.

This sounds right!!

One thing to note is that.......... never-mind, not bothered to say in-case its misinterpreted by morons who took it down in the first place

FFA because thats how you replicate star wars

Haven't you heard the word?? All Jedi take 3 hours to become Jedi grand masters hahahaa

Whatever happens I am in 2 minds about interviewing slider.

Better judgement says no, but if we are filling interviews.....

Would love an interview with someone in the game dev world and how you would get thier opinion on JKA, if they had one that is! Like devs or others who help into other kinds of games or something?

Dope other than the game server, what else would you need out of the VPS??

If you need someone who you want to setup the server with JA++ and openjk for you, I can help with a good provider I know and have been using for some time!

Where would you like the server/vps located?

Replacing the jamp.exe

Renaming existing one to jamp.exe.old and grabbing openjkx86 and renaming to jamp.exe should work because UU just looks for an exe in default location, worked with me when I tried it many moons ago!

Up the shut fuck to this Circa wtf??

Pick ubuntu

Does it take a lot of effort for these kind of OS's are does it require active developers?

Dont be tempted to turn off UAC just to play this game, as there are ways around it!

Compatibility mode to Win 7, plus run as administrator, should do it most of the time!!! (Or Openjk )

 

 

1. I think I heard about it on JKHub for the first time. 

2. It wasn't difficult at tall. Copying the necessary files then modify a bat file to run the game with OpenJK and the desired modification.

3. I think in my clan there are people who are using OpenJK but I'm not sure if they are on JKHub or not.

4. To be honest nothing. I'm satisfied with this 'version' of JKA. 

 

Mog PM me for assistance been running into windows 8 issues since 2 weeks ago, anything in the way I can help, post here so I can assist and ofc WB!

Muchos appreciated Xyca, please post here if possible when you have done so

Morabis did this require any additional dependencies as well as SDL?

TPM because of that Darth Maul and that green saber not used by Yoda, stupid JediKnight racism that green people c an only use green sabers xD

This release definitely ushered in a new age

I am one for Open-Source community efforts, especially for things like this as it does drive it forward and often add a new dimension to applications that were considered "fruitless".

I would like to personally Thank OpenJK and the people who work hard at it. Their efforts do not go to waste and I bet if there was a stat that could track number of people running OpenJK and users who play JKA, it would have definitely increased!!!

Muchos Gracios from me and EFF!

It's an issue of manpower & the fact I'm sick of the engine after working hard on every part of the large project. I still think converting DF2 Mod to an MP mod would be best.

 

As for me, I'm going to stick to smaller projects from now on. I'm currently working on this: http://jkhub.org/topic/3920-terminator-apocalypse If anyone would like to help out, PM me.

This looks nice, and a smaller project that would revitialise your spirits!!

That model of Arnie looks awesome!!!

@@Vulcan Interested?

A shame to hear this DT85, I was keeping up with your progress here with what you were doing, its sad to see how it could turn out like this!

As Moondog says, you can take away with it skill that can be used and adopted elsewhere on the net!!

This community does have a skewed ratio of programmers/modders to users, which can discourage developers from continuing work like this (I am a user as well, so I am part of the problem)

How about taking on something that can take your mind off of it DT85? Like another kind of modding/programing!

It was only relevant if you were already a Google+ user. If you weren't, and had no desire to be, then it was a horrible way to "market" the service. Nobody likes being forced to do anything.

 

@@ent it's not removed yet. Probably not for a few weeks or months actually.

I was then i stopped because Social networks are a giant waste of life!

I liked it tbh but well when it can't compete what can you do!!!!

Dusty that is right re OEM version!

64bit will make use of more than 4GB RAM, and its encouraged to have to cater for upgrades to hardware upgrades (easier to do on their own, rather than new machine)

Im not sure if Windows 7 is an investment anymore, but with this Start menu coming to 8.1, maybe an investment can be made to 8.1 which makes more sense!

@@eezstreet You finally levelled up from One Word Suggestion!!! Congrats!!!

@@Barricade24 Well done man!
