Re: Tech Annihilation Crashing everyday I beg for somebody to help :<

Oh that's fun. Have you tried wiping Spring's cache? Dunno if that'll do anything :-)
The OS gives no error log either?

Re: New game Colony Siege - Spring Similarities

Oh interesting. Looks like they have a few new/evolved game ideas.
Not built on the Spring engine – unfortunately – it requires DX11.

If anyone checks it out, let us know what it's like!

Re: compat mode 104

I have a fork of 104 XXXX that seems to run ok on Mac, (it can run BAR even!) only definite issue is that infotextures (LOS view, elevation map, etc) are borked (On Mac). Ivand tested it for me on Windows once and the infotextures worked there so it would probably work on other legacy machines. I ha...

Re: More "BA" questions, split from The end of the maintenance branch

So far nobody got give reasons why old versions need to be banned … Just some vague "We need to move forward." The reasons for the restrictions have been detailed in full by the people who made the decision. The intended effect was not to remove BA (or other games) from the server but to ...

Re: Splitting Ares's lies from: The end of the maintenance branch

The story about "toxic players" that the BA10 told is bullshit. If the problem was only with a few toxic trolls, as they say, why did they leave BA broken like that? They made it unplayable for everyone because of a few trolls? 1. BA 10 wasn’t received well by a certain few because of a s...

Re: Autohosts operating non-downloadable engines

They're not test versions. Not exactly. Some of them are quite stable. That makes no sense. Do you mean "stable" as in "does not crash much"? I mean stable release as in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle#Stable_release Stable as in "We could have rel...

I first responded to your criticisms, then addressed the restrictions. It was on topic.

There's one thing you never responded to – my ask for you to offer what services you think you can provide to contribute. We'll use anything we can get.

Re: Autohosts operating non-downloadable engines

They're not test versions. Not exactly. Some of them are quite stable. Over time Maintenance branch has built up quite a large array of features not supported on 104.0. A few of us think we should have released more stable versions, but in lieu of that happening, all we can do is notify host owners ...

Re: please allow all spring versions without restrictions

Just want to check that you're aware that 104.0 is already an outdated version, over the last few years games running on 104.0 + have moved to following more bleeding-edge versions released from the "maintenance" branch. The currently played version is 104.0.1-1553-XXXXX for BAR, Other gam...

I'll say this once more. saturnV, Ares, as long as you continue this crusade, you're part of the problem. If you want to be part of the solution, just ask. There are plenty of people trying to solve things who will help you get started. I'm first in line, and I'm currently working on a handful of th...

Re: Splitting Ares's lies from: The end of the maintenance branch

@Ares:
Stop complaining. Do what you can to make things better. Once people see you as an ally, they'll start listening to you. As long as you make yourself the enemy, they want.

Re: Splitting Ares's lies from: The end of the maintenance branch

Ok, look, we know the situation's a mess. Everyone feels justified in their own stance. And if someone wants to ban someone from the server they own, for whatever stupid reason, why not? Sure, it may be bad for them. So can we stop these petty arguments, and focus on what we want. Because we literal...

Re: Impossible to LOGIN

Enough blathering, there is no major issue here e.g. in the last 24h, 20 accounts were created, 19 successfully verified, the remaining 1 seems to have used a fake email address. On uberserver side: I'll look at bug reports via github when they have proper logfiles etc attached, but I'm not offerin...

Overriding Spring widget API

Hey so BA have started removing things from the default included widgets (advanced player list no longer shows anyone's faction, for example) to the point of including an "anonymous" game mode, which in theory prevents anyone from knowing who anyone else is (intended for FFA). And this got...

Re: Failed to extact engine - mirrors down

Balanced Annihilation split a number of months ago, and unfortunately the unmaintained fork is the one that was left on the Spring server. It uses an outdated nightly build of the engine, which is no longer available. Instructions for the currently maintained fork are located somewhere here https://...

Yeah, I wish the technical discussions would happen here. Real time chat is awesome for certain things but for organising information? Nah.
