There will be soon.

Hi guys, just a little status update for you. Looking through my PMs, it looks like I've let a lot of requests fall by the wayside. This is because support for this thread, my other threads and my other web work is continually getting more demanding.

Over the course of this week, I'm going to be going through my PMs thoroughly to make sure I address any questions I may have overlooked. As a result of this, I'm going to ask that any future requests, questions or comments be made through my two respective threads, unless we're dealing with some private information. As it stands, I've just let things get out of hand, and I find I'm forgetting PMs much more easily then I used to. The linear nature of a thread, though, is much harder to ignore or forget, and way easier to search.

This will make it easier for me to keep track of things, and I'll be able to put things on a rough, but clearer schedule then I had before. In short, this will make support better. I appreciate your patience and will get back to you soon.

You might want to add words like "no support via pm or email" to your signature and the first post of your threads. I have seen other mod authors doing this. I think it will help reducing your pm amount.

Jedi, is 2.5 RC1 stable enougth for production site? I plan to recheck my definitions & add new ones for 2.5. But still don't know, does it worth to upgrade right now.

I would, I just like to use my sig for other things and change it often.

I've not gotten to do a real good test of 2.5, but I've seen it on a few live sites. There appears to be a few small bugs with some definitions. But I haven't yet determined if that the definitions interaction with 2.5 or 2.5 itself. It's up to you really, if you want the resizing option and some of the new features.

im running 2.5 on our live site with no problems aside from the amazon link problem. its fantastic aside from that

Great work! Just one question though. I'm using VB 3.8 RC1, and the IGN definition is causing an error. Any suggestions for a fix?

Digital Jedi: wouldn't be easier and less time consuming for you to stick to only one version (usually latest) ? I mean, it must be a killer job to go back to 2.x then 2.5 and so on. I think we could manage to love one version only, one big definition file, easier to track bugs... Just my 50 cents :)

I thought this was fixed in RC1, but what you can try to do is go into the definition for IGN and see if there are any single quotes. Escape each single quote by adding a backslash in front of each one, like so: \'

I've not had a chance to check to be sure, but that's likely the problem.


Easier for me, maybe. But it would leave a lot of users out in the cold. While the old definitions will work on RC1, these definitions will not display properly on anything but RC1. And the whole point of doing definitions for RC1 is so you can use RC1's new area controls. But if I drop the old defs for the BETA version's defs, I'll be leaving a lot of folks out in the cold who aren't ready to use the new version yet, or who've been receiving errors with them.

The hardest part is over now that I've gone through the main list. The only thing I need to do now is when I make a set of definitions, to import the new set to my demo board and export them again with the $ameinfo variables instead of the usual height and width parameters. An extra step, but not an egregious one.

does this allow you to upload .avi files or .mov files on forum for other to see
