Well, as you have probably heard by now, we've gotten the AotC TC mod to join up with OJP.

In other news, my new T.A.B. (Tactical Attack Bot) Bot just had it's first successful running today. It only has only order implimented at the moment and it's pretty primative, but it's already able to successfully find and take the shortest route around maps.

OK guys, I'm fooling with the site again. I bought a book on PHP so I would know what's going on with the fusionnews/poll. I should have something to show for it soon. Razor, you said something about OJP maybe being hosted by AOTC: TC - is that still going to be the case?

Doubtful, the main AotC is going off on some image-studios thingy instead of what we originally discussed, so, we're staying with our own hosting until AotC settles down.

OK, I've finished it all except for a few things that need to be tweaked. I'll upload it in the morning to let you guys see how it is.



EDIT: Uploaded. The news script is not working right now, I'm going to look into it today. Use IE to look at the distro section. I'm going to have to rewrite the script there in javascript for it to work in Netscape.

EDIT 2: FusionNews works now, just got to edit the templates to match the site's color scheme. Persons who need access to the news script PM me with your username & temp password so I can get you in.

Ok dokie. Since we now have a lovely working website, I'm going to be encouraging people to post the news on the website, and then post here stating that a news item on the site has been added. This way, both people that regularly check the forums or the website will see what's going on.

Anyway, the point is, there's new news on the website.

OJP Basic beta 3 for v0.0.5 is out. (personal.palouse.com/razorace/ojp_basic_005b3.zip) The only change is the addition of partial seige support for the TAB Bots. Right now, there's only support for the Korriban map.

It's a pretty impressive difference from the default support, so I suggest you check it out if you like siege.

cool stuff (icons are good). Where do I dump my icon file for use on the site?

However, please pull the lastest file off the our site ftp. It's not an alpha or beta so it shouldn't be distroed directly from our site.

Thanks for the support Buffy.

The reason I never post to the file servers is that it's a fairly large hassle to do so. I've asked for assistance with posting files and doing the nessicary documentation, but that support never seems to materialize.

Plus, I'm a freakin' perfectionist so I never feel that things are "good enough" for formal releases.

The website is acting a bit wonky so I'll post my news here.

The lastest news is that I've successfully intergrated the desire to pick up weapons and ammo into the TABBots. This does seem to make a forseeable difference in their abilities in FFA games.

The question is what I should do next. I'm thinking that I should give the SP navigation code another shot. I've come up with an idea that will make it much easier to intergrate into the MP. If you have some feedback about what you want me to work on next, please start a new thread on the subject.

Razor..site's updated with the latest beta on the distro page, the issues you were having with FN hopefully resolved, the two dead site buttons removed, the D/L links fixed, my e-mail visible, and everyone is pleased.

Flying bots would be sweet.



Edit:

You know what is irritating? Forgetting my password for FusionNews. I was trying to test whether it works or not, but I'm at a loss to remember what my password was... You should be able to reset it for me though, being an all-powerful admin admin and all. :D

Great to see you're still working on things, Razor. I may yet submit some skins someday. Ultimately, I'd like to create a JO addon. At one time I had everything working except the AI paths and a few script errors. I had a multiskin Kyle to select and the original UI in. If you're ever interested, let me know and we might find someone to re-path the levels.

That would rock. I'm currently trying a different approach to the SP AI navigation system but it's taking a while to get the code into a state where I can run both c and C++ code in the .dlls.

Right now I'm performing an experiment on the OJP Beta server. I'm basically attempting to convert the traditionally C based .dll code to be C++ based. The primarily reason for this is so that I can port the SP navigation code, which is in C++ into MP.

So far, I've been able to compile the C++ version of the code using g++ and have it successfully run on linux. g++ throws a lot more warnings than gcc or VS.net but I'll resolve all of them eventually.

That's all for now,
Razor Ace

Today I rewrote a bit of the teambalancing code to, hopefully, fix some issues we've been having with the team balancer freaking out a bit at times. The new system should be more intelligent in terms of choosing a player to switch teams when balancing.

I've reached a milestone in the porting of the SP Nav code, basically all the code definitions are now correct. In layman terms, I've properly defined the code that I need to use, now I just need to fill out the code.
