Re: Tech Council
 

Good idea, I was going to have this sort of divide as well http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif

Just waiting on Richard to reply to my e-mail inquiries about hosting here.

I *could* host it in the uploaded files section but it would be nicer to have a proper site http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif

Re: Tech Council
 

I'd like to be part of this. It's just too much work for one person to re-implement everything.

Perhaps the council could divide up the mod files. The owner of a file could have final say in what mods go into that file. Where there are different opinions, there can be more than one owner / Version of a file. Council votes could really come down to "which Version am I going to support in my mod file".

For example, if we have two competing vehiclesizes.txt files, the owner of Components.txt can support one, both, or none of them.

This creates a cooperative forum that recognizes the reality that no person can really force anyone else to do anything. Everyone's ideas, good and bad are welcome, just roll up your sleeves and start modding. The best Versions of each file will automatically be incorporated into a larger whole.

Re: Tech Council
 

Agreed.
We just need somewhere to host it now http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif
If Richard replies with a negative, I wonder if Hadrian would mind hosting us at SpaceEmpires.org

Re: Tech Council
 

This will probally be much better than the HB "Universal Tech Council", which I was a part of (it never was finished). I would like to help, how can I (or just can I)?

I never knew HB had a tech council though...
what was it for?
what were it's aims?
and who was in it?

Re: Tech Council

Re: Tech Council
 

Dravis : That's what I was thinking.
We could possibly host the site there and store the MODs in ShrapnelGames' uploads...
would be a bit of a pain though.

Still no word from Richard so I'm sending another e-mail to him.

Re: Tech Council
 

Ok, have e-mailed and ICQd him http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/images/icons/icon7.gif
now for the wait http://www.shrapnelgames.com/ubb/ima...ons/icon10.gif

Re: Tech Council
 

Richard's horrible with getting back to people, isn't he! lol

Re: Tech Council
 

Will the site fit in under 1 meg? I don't think so because the site will have to have the MOD available for download. Unless you find another place for the MOD.
