you obviously don't know what's been going on these last few years.
If i were you, i would delete this post and run away before it's too late. save yourself.
-
what do u mean whats been going on? and run away?
hay i play fs2 mulitplayer.. the thousands of u on this HLP dont even fly.. so what u talkin about!?
-
Uh....fs2 won't die as long as people don't think it's dying.
It just strikes me as people being pessimistic when they start making threads about its death...
in short: *puts a bullet in Charismatic's head*

I see you've finally come over from VWBB...
In my opinion, FS is hardly going/dying away. Last gasps? More like alive and kicking. The flurry of activity continues at a healthy pace, although this does not mean there should not be more .
However, if you are convinced of what you say, then perhaps a good place to start would be to learn how to FRED and to then start FREDding. We can always use more missions around here.
Indeed, you seem like a PXO kind of person. You may wish to concentrate on multiplayer missions. If you are ambitious enough, perhaps a multiplayer campaign.
There is no real point starting threads like this. I say to you: go forth and add to the glory of Freespace! Linger not over doomsday predictions!
Oh, and since nobody seems to have done it yet...
:welcome:
-
Charismatic, you just ruined any chance of earning respect here. Never sho your face around here again until you get your story straight.
-
ummm, lliving large, please don't scare away the new guy. this is supposed to be a friendly community.
-
u guys dont like me after 1 post?
ive only seen fs2 mulit and it seemed 2 be dying ... so thats y i thought what i thought.
also squad war didnt validate no more or update anything.. and pxo dont have a email and they dont fix things fast. thats y i thought it was dying.
my opinion has changed.
and guys Plz be nice, im not trying 2 be mean or anything, and i dont want any enemys..
and btw, i love fs2 so dont think im trying 2 kil it myself, actually this was an attempt 2 save it. but its not dying so il just not worry about fs2 dyin no more.

We don't use PXO anymore, it's obsolete. We are focusing on FSNetD and Squadwar++. These will replace PXO and Squadwar. Bobboau already has a working prototype per se of FSNetD.
-
whats squadwar++? and FSNetD?
never herd of these..
any info would be Great .. and il go bring the news back 2 FS2 Mulit.. and my Squad.. The Evil Ones, the EVO.. that FS2 mulit aint dying.
our hopes wil go up after all >)
hmm, darn, that just cost me a job.oh well.
Spike
-
Truthfully, LLivingLarge, we don't have FSNetD and SquadWar++ just yet. We are all anticipating there arrival in the near future, but until then, it doesn't hurt to have PXO around.
Indeed, it would help if more of us went online on PXO more frequently.

Firstly, all your questions can be answered if you search the forums... But since I'm a nice guy, I'll save ya a little trouble. FSNetD is what we intend to replace PXO with. FSNetD does exist, while at the same time, SquadWar++ is just an idea.
-
If you're going to be mr. big shot, you might as well tell him about the SCP..
-
That'll take at least an hour by myself... I'll let everyone pitch in for that...
-
well about hte squadwar++, its an idea. well, id like 2 be one of the main ppl leading bringing that idea in2 reality.. but i dont have much time, i can only get online during weekends.. and when weekends are up, im on as much as i can.. practically all day.. Anyways.. id Really beable 2 help during sumer vaca.. i am on my comp flying or whatever 24\7 cauz i like fs so much, im on all day and most of night >) im serious..
anywyas.. yes id like 2 help in what ways i can now.. but Next weekend il work on learning how 2 fred
until then.. i may not get these posts read that quickly.. but il try.
Spike
-
the SCP? what? lol
-
Your name fits you well... But I still think you need to understand just how big the SCP really is. We like enthusiastic people and all, but you should realize that the only way you can get far in HLP, is by keeping a constant dedication to your work.
-

O_o Tell me you did not just say that...
-
Hey! Charismatic will learn in time. He's come at a very busy moment. Is it all that surprising that he doesn't know about EVERYTHING?
When I first got here, I had no idea what the FSSCP was all about, or that it even existed. Later when I did, I thought it was mostly useless. Only now am I beginning to appreciate its potencial.
If I went through that, then maybe Charismatic will too. Hopefully, he will have a less painful time integrating. Until then, CUT HIM SOME SLACK.
-
ah.. well what if i did? >) (didnt mean sarcasm)
-
and u said constand dedication 2 my work.. well sorry 2 break the news 2 u but i have no work.
not even a job in life >)
hehe. i only Lead my squadren.. lots of work i put in that anyways.
-
It's nothing personal to Charismatic, but I fear this will become a daily question once the influx of ignorant n00bs come pouring in.
-
*stares blankly at thread*
I'd explain everything, but it's almost 3:00 in the morning here.
-
You have a point indeed, LLivingLarge. :nod:
There must be a better way of guiding new people to the information they require. Say, isn't there a thread going on about this topic in the SCP forum? Maybe something will come out of that...
Until then, we all have to pitch in and help. Sorry about my capslocks. No insult was meant by it.
-
What will hit us the hardest are the n00bs who will either be completely pessimistic saying, "WTF are you wasting your time on a dead game for?" and the ever annoying "KNOW IT ALL" n00b.
Listen, I enjoy answering questions not found by a simple search, heck, I'm not a coder, but I still like to hear ideas even if they make no sense... But this forum needs to adopt more of a self-help system.
-
*points to the Hilights*
Go.

thread's name sound familiar
http://www.hard-light.net/vwbb/showthread.php?threadid=9528
okay play nicely here and Freespace comminity not gonna die:)
-
SnakeE goes and look around looking for action space sims that can fulfill need of adrenaline.........
SnakeE sees nothing in his ACTUAL game collection that meets the required entertainment needs.......
SnakeE takes Freespace ;) and realizes that multiplayer or singleplayer it still is the best game of it's nature so far... runs it and forgets about this thread for a couple of hours!!!
Death of Freespace Multi or single??
*****sigh*****
-
People keep saying that FS2 is dying but as long as more people are joining than leaving I don't see it myself.
-
ok, Charismatic, if you want to help, you could beta test for FW (SW++). we are currently on a slight hiatus, but you could help out and beta test. here is the link
http://nodewar.penguinbomb.com/fleetwars/
the leading roles are somewhat filled now, and since there isn't that much of a staff to begin with, 2 leaders is enough.
also, please, please, please, try to improve your spelling a bit. i know i am not perfect either, but i see you are a native speaker. i am not. i know it's not a perfect excuse, but really, at least look over your posts before you click "submit".
also, replacing you with u and other things like that are not always apreciated. it is nice if you need to chat in a mission, when time is limited, but on a forum, you have all the time in the day to look over your post, so it is not needed.

No idea why but the worst spelling and grammer tends to come from people for who English is a native language (especially from the US).
When foreigners do join they tend to improve very quickly (compare Free Terran now with how unintelligable he was when he first joined and you can see a huge improvement).
-
indeed, even if i compare my own english to my first posts here i see a major improvement. not only here, but also in school. i think a lot of foreigners use the web to practice their english, while the native speakers only use it as a way to entertain themselves, and don't pay attention to their english.
-
Wow, i'd never have thought to see him here :eek2:

i can say ony one
FS 2 MULTI IS NOT DEATH !!!!
I'm playing almoast evry day on PXO i i see there meany peapole.
First roud of Teamwars is all moast finish, second stats on January 2004.
U want flight on it cheek this http://www.teamwars.com/
And don't tell me that fs 2 multi is death:mad2:
-
FS2 multi is dead.
I intensively played there so I know what i'm talking about.
I mean, who's gonna want to play on PXO anymore? It's down quite a lot, theres almost nobody there anymore, Squadwar wont work anymore, the chatserver is spammed by bots and other people, in fact it's broken.
I can't wait for FS2open to go multi though ;)

Simple when you think of it..... native English speakers take their ability to write in it for granted, so don't really think much about what they write. Likewise we can use phonetics like 'u' for 'you' and soforth more naturally, because we're used to hearing it Though, to be honest, i find 'textspeak' the most singularly fexking annoying thing on the planet, because it's so bloody lazy....
So, er, what kasperl said then :)
-
...
Hopefully that doesn't apply to me. I've been trying to improve my speach... and err... text.
-
You know you love grammar. :)
-
I know my speech is crap, but at least theres less typoes in my comments than usual. I think, anyway.
-
I was refering to Charismatic.
-
I suppose we have fleet wars too look forward to and at the same time as the fleetwars testing was going on SCC(or someone else?) had a fs tournament so in short freespace is not dead just a tad weaker
-
Why don't we see if we can get the SCP dudes to design a PXO-like server program and see if they can find someone who has a lot of bandwith to run it? Or at least a redirecting service to list games on.
-
That's what they are trying to do right now, actually.

do you even check the SCP forum?
it is already made, it is just waiting for a good server, at least AFAIK.
-
no, its not done kasperl. It still lacks IRC chat implementation AFAIK. The only thing that is done and works is the stat-tracking service.
-
Well, I played against Kazan with it...briefly... It was at an advanced level when we did, and that was long ago...
-
yes, but did you have an IRC chat implemented? I guess not.
Inq has told me that there lies the current problem. Nobody of the staff seems to have enough knowledge on IRC and c++ as to implement it into FS2 again. :(
-
Oh, no, but I never deemed it that important... :nervous:
-
It is. :)
-
PXO is not dead, it's on a long forgotten but very fragile respirator.
SquadWar is in a sense, brain dead and in a hospice...
-
LightSpeed,
'Inq has told me that there lies the current problem. Nobody of the staff seems to have enough knowledge on IRC and c++ as to implement it into FS2 again. '
i think one of my pilots is working on learning the 'C++' and has been; im going to ask him about that when i see him, and well see what we can find.. if hes of any use to you guys.
btw i hope you (everyone) are appreciating my spelling\grammer now or whatever the f'k you asked me to do before.
Captain Spike OUT!

Why do you call yourself Charismatic? Yet end every sentence with "Spike" or "Captain Spike"?

No, I need a custom title! :D
Oh. My. God. This thread is retarded, lol!
-
now that the thread has been reduced to a !!!!1111oneoneone contest, lets just lock it and end the stupidity.
-
The Mustang texxies will take some time. Theyre in progress though. Oh, and the !!!!111oenoneone is rather funny because if you actually read the gibberish some of those people type you'll notice they really drop in those "1"s.
-
Hm, my mistake. I must've missed the server part.
...If you're going to add IRC implementation, use Espernet. =P I love that network. o.O
-
Not directed at anyone in particular: if you have no more constructive things to say, please leave this thread and say no more. Guys, a welcome is not something you say, it's something you do. So let's do it.
Welcome to HLP, Charismatic. It's true that you've come at an incredibly busy time. Stick with it and after a while the picture will become clear to you, if it hasn't already, of what the face of FreeSpace is like right now.
:welcome:
-
If there will be an IRC server it will be hosted on the same net as the stats server is, probably.
