Thanks for the update

I was finally able to get a PC today, so things will start to pick up again on my end.

Shame about the shambles that was the UK election.

[Thogrim]

That's really good news actually. I'm trying to put some more effort into the organizational areas of the project since I'm failry useless when it comes to art at the moment.

I can't say I've paid too much attention to the UK elections, other than noting that Cameron was the favorite. I'm assuming he won? I've had enough of ridiculous politics in the US in the past few years, political burnout. The world's going to netherworld in a hand basket, heh.

By the way, would it be possible for you to install this mod for the forum? It's a recent topics mod, but right now it's above my comprehension level. It seems way more involved than the previous one, but I think we were all tired of the scrolling one. (At least Macar and I were)

Installed the mod.

No-one won the election, and hundreds of people were stopped from voting because no-one seemed to have a clue about the laws, and apparently too many people turned up to vote.

[Thogrim]

...really? That's insane. I didn't think such a thing could even happen to such a major nation. Well that really is a shambles.

Thanks a billion for the mod install, this is so much easier to work with!

Oh, and also, my old FTP info is saying invalid for the site, I'd like to upload a temporary style for the board. I'm not sure but I'm assuming something might have changed, would you PM me the info if possible?

[dja]

The new server no longer uses ftp, make sure to set your ftp client to use sftp.

...sftp? Alas, another new thing I must learn, heh. I'll google it...

[dja]

its just the same as ftp, but is secure (uses encryption), so you can continue using filezilla to upload.

Oooh, so the username and pass and host remain the same...? I want to do a few site changes and fill in some info.

[dja]

Yes, should be, if you have problem with invalid password let me know, it may not have been moved over correctly.

Hmm, yeah it's not letting me use the old user name and pass. I really wouldn't mind having a more memorable login, rather than letters/numbers, though. That way I could remember it offhand.

The great and almighty C4 version 2.0 was released. Still not usable till version 2.01 when they get physics working properly.

Nothing to see hear, move along

[Thogrim]

Surprise surprise... I think we're much better off shifting our entire focus to Unity until such a time as we can do the official game building and C4 gets their act together. Good to know, though. You'd think Physics would be a essential part of an actual version release.

[dja]

Figured I would let people know why I vanished.

The game I am working on has been announced at http://dinodini.wordpress.com/2010/08/1 ... r-manager/

It is an iPhone game with plans for an XBLA and PSN release.

I may return!
