Im drunk and on a manic phase so why not.
It aint much but its already april and only two pages sigh.

Welcome back, stay a while.

There are always developments of every sort going on around here, you just dont hear them.

And sadly godde left s44, but we still got lots of good players left so give it a shot sometime.l

Oh wow iv been useful for a change.
I really love this, nice work.
This should help fight off the discord/slack demons.

Very nice, i havent tried it yet but i sure have to, i need to play this way more. I dont think i could have said what thinksome did any better, listen to him, hes a wise man. Good work of him too, so we have a chance of it actually being played. I hope one day the cursed gets the attention it deser...

I dont think beyond improving the wiki a whole lot can be done to make spring easier usable without significant effort. Another problem that is a major downfall from my view is still the lack of a central repository for standalone gadgets/widgets and other assets. In many ways accessability and shar...

This arguement is as old as it is dumb. Do you think players have so bad short-term memory that they see a video of Spring1944, and when they have installed springlobby they have already forgotten the game's name? Im sure they have enough of a memory to make a distinction between a ww2 game and a g...

I dont approve of forbs move, but i must say he has a point. While it would be nice if we could use springlobby for communication its must be said it is in many ways inferior to discord and slack. Lack of voice chat and image/file shareing is rather a downside in many ways. Maybe in the future we co...

AAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH RUN!!!!!

Nice work, i really gotta try it sometime.

The way Evo is distributed is probably the best way to go. Not to be rude, but you dont exactly have the playercount to back up that statement. And from what i understand swl is set up by default to only show evo. Now i dont know you did to have it that way, im not in favor of swl itself doing that...

Picasso never overthinks.

Thats just wishful thinking in experience.

I dont see the point in promoting the engine at this time and the general public. As it has been often said, we should promote games and not the engine, while it would be beneficial we share certain channels media and such sort, the main weight will lie on the game devs. A major downside is the lobb...

Me, thinksome and abma chatted on occasion about the possibility of expanding spring to be a steam like foss platform, we concluded its certainly possible. While it is not impossible it is not an easy task for sure either. There are two main issues from my point of view that would need to be address...

Whats so happy about them?

One can get loads of music under CC-BY-NC from http://www.ektoplazm.com/
Most of it is probably not very fitting for most games, but there are some good tunes there for sure if you dig deep enough and one can also remix those themselfs if need be.

Sorry for late reply.

Have a look at this viewtopic.php?f=13&t=35373, i think it should be self explaining pretty much.

I hope this will help you.

I really think the direct control mode is a severly underrated potential feature, the ability to control your unit like that is really cool and many new gameplay features could be made. Though i think it would be ideal if it would be rewritten in such a way that it allows for regular control in addi...

Awesome, i was looking forward to this for a while. Altough was a tad dissapointed, i expected some cool temple of nod style superweapon structure for the imperials. But this brought me on a interesting idea, how about a chronosphere style teleportation ability? It is after all in the story line so ...
