News / Welcome to 2015
« Last post by Ingar on 2015-01-01 15:47:28 »Another year has come and gone, best wishes for 2015 from Project::OSiRiON!
No New Year's resolutions this year, since we tend to forget about those somewhere in the first
weeks of january. In 2015, we just do stuff!

News / Website overhaul
« Last post by Ingar on 2014-08-27 22:25:15 »After improving the website layout, I dug into the Simple Machines Forum database and conjured up a simple managment system for the website front page: the news section will be generated from the new forum News board. Beyond that, it is just a normal forum board, where members can reply as usual.
The Documentation section of the website still uses the old layout. This is intentional, as explained in the wiki overhaul post.
The advantages of this new system are obvious, the disadvantage is we lose a number of news items that didn't have a corresponding forum post.

News / Wiki overhaul
« Last post by Ingar on 2014-08-25 21:07:04 »Yesterday, I nuked the wiki database and restored (most of) the articles from backup. This takes care of the remaining spam and reduces the database size considerably. As a bonus, I did some updates to the website layout and the various themes (forum, tracker, wiki). Wiki account creation has been disabled, if you're interested in editing, contact the development team, and they will create an account for you.
The next step is to merge all the game-related information from the website's Documentation section into the wiki,
and replace it with a simple About section. While this is mostly a technical issue, a documention cleanup has been long overdue. Maintaining three sets of documentation (source tree, website and wiki) is too much of a hassle. The wiki should be the master source for documentation and the source tree itself should only contain a README and INSTALL instructions. The website should only offer information about the project itself and link to the approriate wiki articles.

News / Wiki theme restored
« Last post by Ingar on 2013-12-26 18:21:53 »In today's Defence against the Dark Arts class we study the science of Necromancy. Armed with arcane powers such as HTML, PHP and CSS I completed my first attempt at resurrecting the wiki theme. While not perfect, it is almost usable, and sets out to surpass its previous incarnation.
2013-12-27 Update
I've corrected a number of annoyances and made the skin the default.

- Impulse particles on Dagon ships are too large, one ship turned into green goo. (Lava_Croft)
- Fix aspect on the loading screen image. (Lava_Croft)
- I had a client segfault while playing with give ship/give weapon and having the inventory window open. (Ingar)
- A lot of ships still need collision model, weapon slots and engine specs updates.
