I really wish someone would make a new version for 3.5.4 supported and with little bugs. Not the one thats posted in the forum already but one thats released in the 3.5.4 board. I would try and do it but Im not a coder so it really sucks. Oh and real talk the blue cards are in the 2nd post of the thread. This is a great hack that should be supported. The coder who made this hasnt been online since December which is really a let down because I know alot of people on my forum and Im sure others really love this concept and the hack itself.

Someone can help me thank.

Im guessing this is not even supported anymore seeing how Darkwaltz hasnt even been on since last december. Too bad, this hack is one of the best hacks out there.

[Darkwaltz4]

ah! well my life has been just maddeningly busy, and it is poised to get worse. one of which is im being kicked out of my house by my step father :-p now... if you think about it, ill have unfettered internet access once i get my own apartment (although ill still be in debt) and provided work and school are taken care of, ill actually be able to work on stuff. as usual, no promises, and this wont be for 2 months or so, but something for you all to look forward to. i may or may not convert this to 3.5, and i have not seen the conversion which i did give my blessings to. i also might do some of my old ideas into real hacks, but its sad to see that in my absense vb itself has barely come in any new directions, lol, but i suppose its good that i have less to refresh myself with. NO PROMISES! but im still alive, and ill answer questions if i can get to a computer, but hope everyone is doing fine. again, i dont know much about the vb3.5 version, and any errors with that were not my fault (directly) lol. i did hear from cyrix and another person who was interested in converting it, that it was quite difficult, and i just hope anyone who has seen it would appreciate the difficulty of having created it in the first place, let alone conversions, or doing it over from scratch.

i dont even have a site anymore really...lol

Thanks man, works fine on my FF forums!

you appear to have pissed off your host dude

my status is still pending: my laptop is packed up right now, still looking for a comfortable place to live. how many people have the 3.5 version? i still have my unfinished upgrade to this which ironically might have actually killed a lot of these bugs before being ported, in addition to being easier to port. does anyone still run the 3.0 version? :-p im just glad my license is still active until august, lol. amazing. i figured it would be easy to make a converter script, as for writing to update the missing users its just a simple comparison script...check the user table to see if it has a triad entry, if not, add it. voila, easy. in fact the new version which i already had done many monhs ago, would have eliminated adding users entirely, as they are added to the system dynamically. (they are seamlessly added to the system upon attempting to use any part of the hack) if i get a chance to, and if i think its good enough (i didnt at the time) i might at least post the newest upgrade, but the best plan is to get back to this completely :-p and work on other top-secret projects which are halfway done as well

I am using the 3.5 version and its works fine (after a few edits). Please post the update
