HLPCoin Beta Test Build
See the announcement here for more details of what this is about. Technical details only on this thread.

This is the first build showcasing the new HLPCoin system. It's mainly to test the backend, we'll be posting builds that test the new GUI later but we figured while that is being coded, there's no reason you couldn't start mining coins already. Mining is for the most part silent, so until the new GUI is in place, you can check how many coins you've mined in the mainhall.

Builds are available here. No patches for now since we'd like to bulletproof this a little more against exploits.

So run the build. Play FS2_Open or Diaspora or whatever. And at the same time earn yourselves some of the hottest new currency on the net.

Re: HLPCoin Beta Test Build
I love this community... even with its flaws, it's just awesome. An in game "store" sounds like great idea for a few mods too. Can you make this a legit feature in the future? E|:-)~

Hey!  No patch means OSX & Linux users are left out! Stop discriminating on the basis of OS choice! :hopping:

Re: HLPCoin Beta Test Build
It's a April First joke.. So there is no need to discriminate on OS basis.

You could look at it that way. Or you could look at it as us letting the Windows users have all the early issues and OSX and Linux get the later betas once the major kinks are ironed out. :D

Re: HLPCoin Beta Test Build
Let me edit that, we changed the G key to a message in the mainhall and a popup in the last build.

Re: HLPCoin Beta Test Build
Now that some of you have mined some HLPCoins, we're ready to unveil the new HLPCoin Marketplace.  This builds upon m!m's work with Chromium to directly integrate FSO builds with the HLP website.

Download
(please note that you will need to extract the entire contents of the .7z into your FreeSpace2 folder; these DLLs supercede the ones in m!m's thread and should replace any that you already have)

In these builds, the G key will no longer present a popup giving you your HLPCoin total.  It will now take you to the online HLPCoin Marketplace where you can exchange your hard-won HLPCoins for perks, rewards, and privileges!

(It's recommended to run the build in windowed mode when accessing the HLP store, as the site uses Javascript.)

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill
