    Internet Explorer 8

    Yes, I'm aware the Beta is out to the public. Yes I'm aware that the main page (http://www.burningstormstudios.com/) does not look correct in either the 'Quirks mode (IE5)' or 'Standards mode (IE8)'. I'll look into it later... PS...IE SUCKS!!! Get Firefox or something else..!

    March 7, 2008 - DX8 Conversion Update

    Well I've been told that while I have to break up the tilesets used by this game into much smaller individual textures for DX8, so I went ahead and did that. I've also been told that having 266 different textures in 266 different files is not the best way to load the textures but to load them...

    March 1 Weekend Update

    For the past...whatever...years, this project has used DirectX7 for the graphics engine. For a long time I have been hoping to upgrade to a newer version of DX and finally decided to begin the conversion. Considering I haven't found a good free DX9 wrapper for visual basic and have no desire to...

    User registration

    Good news. All mail functions are now working properly again! Registration now requires authentication again. If you ever have problems receiving your activation e-mail, please reply here as a guest with your account name and I will look into it.

    User registration

    Well, it wasn't an error on my part or an error caused by the hacker. The webhost is having problems with the mail function of php. So, e-mails just totally don't work right now..Great! Another reason for me to hate this host.

    GUI Screens

    This is kind of an old topic (back from the old forums), but while working on the client I noticed how crappy the GUI looks without an image at all (forgot to copy it over to my thumbdrive) so I went looking for it on my HDD and couldn't find it. I ended up finding copies in my photobucket...

    User registration

    I have removed e-mail authentication for new user registrations temporarily. I was aware that the e-mails were not being sent out since they were first broken (immediately after being hacked), but completely forgot to fix it for registration on the forums. All users awaiting activation have...

    Forum/Site Problems

    It appears this has been resolved so I took off the global announcement status..

    Forum Updates

    OK, well I've added and readded this stupid mod many times since we started this board because it always seems to get removed on every update. But I never did do this any of the previous times, because it was too much of a hassle. The "mark topics as read/view unread posts" is now added again...

    Thoughts on Development

    Haha, actually, I spent the entire day on Saturday working to get the client up to date. So now the client nearly matches the demo entirely. Of course, I didn't bother to update some of the other things that were incomplete from the demo, but otherwise it's nearly back up to date.

    Thoughts on Development

    Yes you are, anyone can still post ideas and we will still take them into consideration. They'll just be at the very bottom of the todo list. (One day I'm actually going to make one of these)

    Thoughts on Development

    Well, I'm really slow as is when it comes to working on this project, but when new concepts come my way or changes to core functionality, I tend to break down on programming and just think about ways to accomplish the task best, usually ending in me creating a whole new program to test my...

    Yes, we were hacked

    There has still been no posts since everything was fixed. So I have no idea one way or another whether people are still having troubles with logins. So I have enabled guest access on the announcement forum. Please reply to this topic with your username if you are still having problems logging...

    Yes, we were hacked

    This post is to officially state that the forum subdomain does now work properly again. I will be sending a mass e-mail to all members shortly with links to this topic and the basic gist of all the events the past few weeks.

    Yes, we were hacked

    OK, for whatever reason, after the hack, the forum no longer likes our subdomain. So until I know whats wrong, simply update your bookmarks to point to this location: <a class="postlink" href="http://www.burningstormstudios.com/forum/">http://www.burningstormstudios.com/forum/</a> instead of...

    Yes, we were hacked

    OK, everything is all fixed now I think. Did the new forum skin always have the font colors off to the right side? I don't remember. I have turned off the override again for the forum skins. You can use whatever skin you want, but the default will be the new skin.

    Yes, we were hacked

    I was wondering if that was just me or not. I'm going to fully reupload the forum files and see if that fixes it. So if the server is not responding or you get errors for the next few hours thats what is going on.

    Yes, we were hacked

    In case you are completely unaware, our site was in fact hacked. If you haven't checked the main page of the website in the past few days, I made a post there stating the fact as well as cleaned it up a bit. Honestly, I am not completely positive how they got in. I do know that if they do it...

    No progress right now.

    OK, I am extremely lazy, so in an effor to get me to actually do something, I've decided to sort through my many backups and sources to determine which is the most recent and either delete or move all the others into a different folder. So if you want to help encourage me, pester me through...
