Title:
Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 03:19:18 am: I like the new one personally but this maybe a test - that most werent meant to see or something there is alot of broken picture links and stuff - i cant belive i was the first to post something on the website changing i feel so unbelievably proud and happy - just got paid $2000 too :) this day cant get much better
Title:
Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 03:23:51 am: Ah they made the \"crystal blue released - download here link not broken anymore and made it go to the downloads page this is so exciting :D
Title:
Post by: Cybio Kingfist on December 24, 2004, 03:26:45 am: It was a sick joke.

Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 03:29:00 am: At least they are updating SOMETHING its great - on a scale of 1 - 2 (1 being boring and 2 being the greatest thing eva) i would rate this 93952879801851580 :D
Title:
Post by: Robinmagus on December 24, 2004, 03:29:18 am: well. the webpage is great but... how might i get to the downloads page?
Title:
Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 03:29:57 am: click downloads :P

EDIT: no seriously,

Title:
Post by: Robinmagus on December 24, 2004, 03:31:43 am: ya...im a moron..i ask before i look...the layout really is great by the way
Title:
Post by: Cybio Kingfist on December 24, 2004, 03:32:37 am: I stand by what I said earlier,
it won\'t be out by christmas.
You\'re getting your hopes too high.
Title:
Post by: Isolis on December 24, 2004, 03:33:25 am: is anyone gettin a hunk pof the pictur e left out in the top left cornor? i use firefox and ie and still get the same thing
Title:
Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 03:33:54 am: \"Hope is the first step on the road to disappointment\"

Give me the name of the guy who said this and ill give you 10 tria when it comes out :D

(lol 10 whole tria)
Title:
Post by: Cybio Kingfist on December 24, 2004, 03:34:35 am: When you click on the people their heads move, maybe it\'s that piece of the image missing for some reason?
Title:
Post by: Sarendara on December 24, 2004, 03:34:50 am: Looking very nice... but those eyes are scary. They move!

Anyways, it is fun to watch it being uploaded.
Title:
Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 03:34:59 am: I believe that would be the blinking dwarf? Apparantly compatible with Macromedia Flash...

I have no idea who said that.
But I set my expectations very low, that way if something goes wrong, I\'m never dissapointed.
And very often something goes wrong.

lol you are very right in saying that but however soon or late it comes out it is always good to know there will be tria to give :P
Title:
Post by: Cybio Kingfist on December 24, 2004, 03:40:13 am: I don\'t know about giving tria. I owe someone 50 tria already, but despit the conversaion rate being less than half as many trias as you had crystals, many people still have a lot to get them started.
Title:
Post by: jarlaxle5 on December 24, 2004, 03:43:58 am: I personally like this layout but there are a few errors like in the view screenshots page some of the images r cut off. Also this might have just been a load error cuz i only checked once but in some places the text overlapped, some1 else may have mentioned it but i didnt check all replies.
Title:
Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 03:46:33 am: There is on the left a part missing of the dwarfs body to view it properly you may be able to see it on the races page i think or history, government, economy sothing like that
Title:
Post by: ramlambmoo on December 24, 2004, 03:50:48 am: the dwarf takes ages to load, even with ADSL.. its annoying having a big white space in the top left hand cornor of the screen, and it loads it every time,...
Title:
Post by: Cybio Kingfist on December 24, 2004, 03:52:18 am: I have no problem with anything loading, or text overlapping, or anything like that. But there is something messed up with the screenshots.
Title:
Post by: Arimala on December 24, 2004, 03:55:21 am: Screenshots are up on the left for me now!
Title:
Post by: Dananon on December 24, 2004, 03:57:12 am: The dwarf took me less then a second to DL on a cable modem. The site looks wonderfull. Great job guys. If this much effort is put into the site, I\'d love to see what was put into CB!!
Title:
Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 03:58:17 am: The screenies are only up on certain pages for me and the dwarf has no problem loading but some links are on the wrong line. No doubt it needs a little work but i got hours and im parking myself right here ;)
Title:
Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 04:00:11 am: Ive got a question about sites... Cant you make them all offline and perfect them before bringing them up...it doesnt make alot of sense bringing it up and then tweaking it...

Wow.
That STINKS .
Title:
Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 04:08:36 am: I just thought (now thats something that doesnt happen often haha) that, contrary to peoples stereotypical views on release dates of PS updates and releases that this time THEY MAY ACUTALLY HAVE IT RIGHT DUH DUH DAAAA. As unbelievable as it sounds they would not (or hopefully wouldnt) make such a bold move as to promote the fact that \"Crystal Blue Released\" unless it actually was close to release - i think that they will release it at midnight forum time IN WHICH CASE CB IS JUST HOURS AWAY!!!!!!!! ITS POSSIBLE.

Imagine after waiting for years for a single moment which passes only once in a lifetime - something so significant that can only be compared to a perfect world...perhaps i overstep myself and have gone completely nuts and should be admitted to a phyciatric ward - but i make my decision and stand by it...CB IS ALMOST HERE! WOOHOO!
Title:
Post by: Cybio Kingfist on December 24, 2004, 04:11:49 am: Perhaps you\'ve overstepped yourself gone nuts and should just be shot.
Midnight? With time zone differences I greatly doubt it. YOu realise this is based in Italy right?
Title:
Post by: Keyaz on December 24, 2004, 04:12:49 am: :D hey guys, i guess you noticed the dwarf blinks right?

well click on the kran and menki!!!! lol

EDIT: 100th post yeay me :rolleyes:
Title:
Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 04:14:37 am: hmm you make a good point...say anyone have a gun and some uh...bullets or shells...maybe a mortar...god knows i probably made a fool of myself...but hey thats a great job i could have in the CB community lol... the Jester of Yliakum - very nice ring to it :D

Title:
Post by: Cybio Kingfist on December 24, 2004, 04:25:52 am: I still say it won\'t be released on christmas.
I\'m going to laugh if it doesn\'t and you are all dissapointed.

Post by: Cybio Kingfist on December 24, 2004, 04:30:08 am: Unless it comes down your chimney in a santa suit and cooks itself in your fireplace,
it does.

Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 04:31:28 am: I thought the turkey tasted funny last year ;(

Post by: Keyaz on December 24, 2004, 04:33:43 am: nice, arent you the positive thinker cybio
Title:
Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 04:35:15 am: Cooking itself is one thing but wouldnt it be great if it could marinate itself too :D :D

The santa suit has grease packets that burst in the fire.
Self basting self cooking santa turkey.

Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 04:38:00 am: LOL i gotta get me one of those :) Great for work functions or special occassions
Title:
Post by: Isolis on December 24, 2004, 04:52:44 am: I like the new site, if u didnt notice u click on the kran and it moves. I cant wait for cb .. man im happy right now so friggin happy ill jump on my bed!
Title:
Post by: Kwip on December 24, 2004, 05:12:29 am: Did anyone notice exactly when the site changed? I have been on and off all day and just noticed it so it must have happened in the last few hours.

Scrolling down I notice that the site will need a little more work. But do you think that is what I am worried about though what do ya thing? Of course not, this tease is just plain cruel if the game is not released in the next few hours. I cried out in exclamation when I started to load the site and saw the download CB pic.

But I had my doubts after I glanced at the news and saw that the latest news was from the 20th saying to re-migrate. Then as I went to the download site, noooo! :( But it got me all excited, just as when the MB server went offline. Now I will be up all night refreshing the main PS site to see if it is out :(
Title:
Post by: swift on December 24, 2004, 05:13:54 am: Anybody noticed that if you click the Kran he starts talking?

And the dwarf blinks
Title:
Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 05:18:16 am: I was the first one to see the site - it changed *roughly* (give or take one or two minutes) at 18:09 forum time. And yes the blinking dwarf and talking kran are very cool 8)
Title:
Post by: Cybio Kingfist on December 24, 2004, 06:05:25 am: How do you know you were the first to see it change? You were the first to post it but it\'s impossible to prove you were the first to see it.
Title:
Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 06:11:02 am: I agree i cant prove it and wont stake my name to it (as well as being selfish and arrogant and ignorant of others that is also really...um crap) - ill be satisfied to say i was one of the first of the dedicated Planeshift fans to see it although the simple changing of a site is insignificant (although exciting) compared to the purpose of which it represents, which is in this case, Crystal Blue.

I dont think I\'ve said this yet...Merry Christmas :D
Title:
Post by: Cybio Kingfist on December 24, 2004, 06:23:37 am: Mmyes. A merry christamas indeed. And a happy new humbug.

It will be more merry when CB is out.
Title:
Post by: Fallen Angel on December 24, 2004, 06:47:27 am: Definately.
Title:
Post by: Tidan on December 24, 2004, 07:24:21 am: I found when looking through the websites links that some pages load in the older layout while others open up in the new one. Has anyone eles encountered this problem?
Title:
Post by: Nardia on December 24, 2004, 07:25:21 am: yeah i get that to dont worry i think they just havent updated it all yet
Title:
Post by: Icebreaker on December 24, 2004, 07:29:01 am: It\'s cached, hit your browser\'s reload button.

Edit: well everything except the Player Guide pages.

Do you have flash installed?
That thing isnt a picture but a flash aplication, that animates..

(Download macromaedia flash here:
http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/download.cgi?P1_Prod_Version=ShockwaveFlash )
Title:
Post by: Isolis on December 24, 2004, 11:59:14 am: I restarted my computer cuz last thing i could do , and it worked i could see the site, thanks anyway for your help toad, Taldor .

~spelling edit~
Title:
Post by: kronon on December 24, 2004, 12:03:10 pm: Although I think the site looks realy great I have the urge to state that some people don\'t have flash and will get a disfunctional site.
Maybe There could be and option to have a \"html only\" content?

P.S. I have flash, but I remember the time when I used browser that didn\'t have flash or weren\'t fast enough to support it corrrectly(laggy pages).
Title:
Post by: goroff on December 24, 2004, 12:52:54 pm: nice page but ... as said before

please get the layout working for firefox ;-)

(yes i got shockwave installed. the animation is displayed above the place it should be)
Title:
Post by: scion on December 24, 2004, 12:55:09 pm: well i dont know if its just me but flash content on websites seems to load faster with firefox than IE
Title:
Post by: Watcher on December 24, 2004, 12:58:01 pm: To honour the creation of the new website I have got a new sig, I call it Dwarf Eyes.

yeah beacuse IE is utterly useless, everything loads faster in firefox.

thats weird, i use firefox and runs fine on mine... however i noticed if you change the quality from high to medium it is out of place.. but only but 1 or 2 pixels.
