I added whatever e-mails show in your SSF profile (namely your MSN as an e-mail).

That is a Java/Flash-based game.

Running it with python dirserver.py.

Not unless you install it on your own computer for offline, private, and developmental use. That's how I made the vBulletin skin for Jackpot SVS. I was not intending to use my pirated copy of vBulletin for anything other than making the forum skin. If it is installed on my computer, offline, inaccessible from anyone outside my router -- who would even know, care, or bother?

I didn't setup the Goal in Analytics correctly. We shall see for results within the next 48 hours. EDIT: That or no results since the last couple days.

I will pay $5 USD via PayPal or money order to write a very simple Linux shell script and meets the described criteria. The script will be executed through Cron scheduling every minute; the script itself should check to see if said process is running, and if not -- execute it. Simple as that. You will receive payment upon successful completion, which includes testing and examination for quality assurance (integrity, security, and free of bugs and problems). The script will be used to assist BlueT in Linux hosting (provided by L Y N X) in the Subspace realm.

I would suggest pirating IPB and installing a webserver on one of your machines and doing it offline/privately. Then, upon completion of a skin, just package up the skin itself and release it.

Ok, so they do work together? If so, then I guess that is great. However one thing that I am wondering about is the difference in physics algorithms between Continuum and Discretion. How do the two coexist in simultaneous gameplay? The reason I brought that up was because I think it would be a very bad mistake to allow Discretion zones to populate current directory servers if they are not compatible with Continuum -- thinking that they would trigger some Continuum error like.. Or something else. Plus that it would also confuse people trying to join zones that are Discretion-only and cause some chaos or whatever. If Continuum and Discretion clients can coexist and play together simultaneously, then I do not sense a problem. If the physics algorithms do not match in Discretion and Continuum, I think this can cause problems for Continuum clients: how will Continuum render a Discretion player? I think Continuum might either crash, or render players with what it knows and show them as laggers around wormholes and such, or something else. For sure, any zone that contains a wormhole that has a reversed gravity field or teleportation function, or more than 8 ships, and other similar core features -- Continuum cannot handle...unless ASSS detected who is using Continuum, Subspace, and Discretion -- and those using Continuum and Subspace could be supplied with false data (ie. If a Discretion player is in ship 9, ASSS would translate that as ship 8 to SS/Cont -- but then you might have conflict of settings, as Continuum stores arena settings in memory). However, if they cannot, then I may suggest the following for consideration: 1. Trigger a popup message like 2. Allow Continuum clients to join and spectate, but forbidden to play in a ship My brain hurts. X_x

Thank you Bak! =D Awesome job. EDIT: One concern though. If Discretion cannot be compatible with Continuum or even the old Subspace clients, I suggest that Discretion use its own directory server protocol. (Please.) If need be, I would be happy to host a Discretion directory server.

I don't know about you guys, but I don't recall Subspace having an unreliable chat when Chat Reliability is enabled... Someone told me that Continuum ignores/misses chat packets all the time.

Then your Windows/network is not configured correctly. Make sure both computers are in WORKGROUP (or the same network group).

I'm pretty sure that has absolutely nothing to do with Continuum. You might want to run an antivirus, malware and spyware scan. Just a guess.

I want it, please.

Augh, I just found ds1.hlrse.net offline, probably because ssdir went down. There's still a bug in Snrrrub's directory server where if one or more addresses for UpstreamServers is down/offline/invalid/not a directory server, the program crashes or kills itself. EDIT: Back up now. EDIT2: Ugh. Temporarily disabled UpstreamServers. still down It isn't, just checked. Try this: 1. Remove every zone from your list then click OK (go back to main Continuum menu) 2. Click on Zones and get a fresh listing from ds1.hlrse.net See that very small list? That is because those are the only zones broadcasting themselves to ds1.hlrse.net. The reason the list isn't bigger is because I have UpstreamServers disabled -- which is what copies the listings other directory servers have. It is disabled because the Win32 version of Snrrrub's directory server has a critical bug involving ZoneRefreshSeconds (how often it will check other directory servers) and UpstreamServers (list of "other directory servers") that causes the program to crash. I will be launching a flawless secondary hosted on Linux as soon as I get a Cron script worked out that would check to see if said program is running (and if not, execute it). Apparently, I am the only one with this Win32 bug (or that it is very difficult to actually repeat/test it). This Linux version will be hosted on L Y N X Linux server, so the fact that it is on someone else server and the Linux version (instead of Win32) should mean that it will work flawlessly. My hopes anyway.

Thank you for the donation Russky! I have added your name to the donor list and invited you to Google AdWords with Reports Access.

That's really cool Jab & Trained! Do you think you could recreate those original VIE animations (as GIF) where it shows every angle of the ship, one angle at a time? EDIT: Like this

Thank you very much guys! Greatly appreciated.

1997-1998, saw my cousin playing it through a free dialup ISP.

Yup. GetContinuum.com needs that Google Analytics code put immediately before

Sounds like a firewall problem or something. At least 3 of those 4 directory servers are working.
