I finished what I wanted. Just need McSic to add a small piece for me so I can add the relevant code.
do u guys have a set date? (if its in the thread i cba to go through all the messages)
Most likely gonna be here beginning to mid July.
Spent a little bit of time finishing up some code so old replays will work in V8. I just need to make a few UI adjustments for McSic and Dave sometime later this week and then add a small portion of code to make an option functional. Most of the stuff left on the client is random stuff like that, nothing major, small tweaks at this point that ive put off since we are still waiting on some other parts for V8.
The forum is finished. (aside from some minor fixes that I may have to do later on)
Real talk:
Will V8 actually have an updated resolution on the UI, lobby, loading screen and such (QoL update) or will it stay like it always have been?
Finished the rest of the ui code that I didn't want to do. Will work on the last part of ui tomorrow that I actually want to do.
Hmm maybe make a players wars and do a cash prize in the players wars like think about it in cws a group will ddos the other group but if u do a random queue no ddos's will happen
Remember the last time FG tried giving you greedy people money?
Yeah some people ended up going without internet for quite a while. Including some staff members at the time I was still around. With some of those people being DDoSed on the spot.
This is likely a no.
Although finding DDoSers would put the GMs to work *cough*.
Also Dave I'm waiting for my GM status back. I'll give you a deadline of June 6th.
Worked with McSic today on some more things, he made something nice for you guys.
Also a lot of progress is being made on the fgunz.net website, it will have nice features that some of you will like.
I just finished up all the rest of the code on the gunz client I was working on. Next step is the rebalancing when McSic and Dave are ready.
I have a small teaser for you. (not final stats)

I also have a small teaser for the forum addicted people.
Here's a picture of the new forum profile page (which is slightly copied of different forum software).
Compare it to the design of the current theme at this page and see the difference.

A long awaited feature will also be on the new fgunz.net website; delete in-active clans.
The requirement is that all characters of the clan must have a last login time of more than 90 days ago.
Working hard on new soundtrack. Hoping to complete as much tracks as possible alongside with semester finals.
This won't stop me... I'm a strong soldier lol :4
So looking forward to those!
And now I wait. Uh trying to think what else I'm allowed to share. Maybe you can ask some questions instead.
Planning on modifying quest spawns to avoid the so called "boss riding"?
Add a point system for quest ranking? Like survival mode has.
If bored feel free to look at https://freestylersworld.com/showthr...1-Parkour-mode (edit: the arrow I described can be used from quest, when you clear quest for a new stage an arrow appears to lead you to the portal)
When V8 come out I'm celebrate with a case of V8 splash
You can add Scrider making a comeback to the list of V8 stuff. https://freestylersworld.com/showthr...l=1#post985824

Here something that I might implement that will probably excite streamers:
People will be able to apply for a streamer kind of rank. When they get accepted, a button will appear on their account page at fgunz.net which they can click in order for their Twitch stream to appear on the homepage at fgunz.net.
Once they are live and are streaming FGunZ, they will earn a certain amount of event points per hour (with a maximum of say 3-4 hours per day).
Two things ;
Will chat in replays make a comeback?
And will the ability to control replays (play, stop and so on) be аdded?
I would love to have chat back but, looking at how replays work the file just contains information about which data to display, and you cant really stop recordings just like u cant stop real time fighting in place whenever you want. Unless they turn recordings into actual screen captures which would take a ****ton more memory and lower quality
if you guys ever want v8 released, no stuff like fast-forward,rewind,etc wont be in v8, that's a huge undertaking.
Been a year of disappointment on weapon balance.
What ever happened with this thread? https://freestylersworld.com/showthr...alanced-server
When i was staff i was pushing for a major rebalance that would bring back such things and get rid of the more useless weapons and wanted them to dedicate at least 2 weeks to it, although with all the changes it deserves up to a month if necessary. It's anyone's guess now though. Will just have to wait and find out.
This was the original idea at least. Although it didnt receive much response. https://freestylersworld.com/showthr...alance-Details
I'm optimistic. They allowed some changes i recommended that will make every stat on a gun meaningful again.
If the streaming deal is going to just get event points then I would rather see the event shop get an overhaul. Event items in FG always meant "obnoxiously colorful neon" and came off as totally unprofessional looking, so why would people want them? We can already use activity points to get event points so I dont think its much of a promotional booster. People will stream FG if they want to stream FG, and they wont if they dont want to.
Ontopic; is v8 going to continue the trend of neon color rave rainbows or are we going to get something more with some style?
Accepted? Good to hear, there should be set rules for this acceptance because otherwise anyone will become a "streamer" just to be given this ranking.
Such things as;
Good stream quality.
Consistent stream/play time.
A non-advertising stream. (Meaning the stream channel linked to their rank isn't used to play other GunZ servers)
Yep appoint an MOD. For that.
"Just do it"... it's not that easy. There has to be someone who wants to apply for it who has decent skills and can create custom items/textures.
gogo stephan!
i thought hellsniper could also make items? ive seen some people mentioning him and ive also seen some weapons by him ingame...
It seems to be interesting Kappa
You can find it on your account page on here. Currently at a 1:1.5 ratio so you require an even number of event points to convert since FGcoins cant be given in halves. (Example: 2 EP = 3 FGcoins)
any updates
*Cricket noises*
OnTopic: Can we get some proper 128x128 .png emblems, the tiny blurry ones are pretty old hat. And what happened to the transparency of .pngs in old emblems that worked a year ago? I was pretty salty when I found some old transparent emblems for clans no longer worked and just looked like ass with nasty forced conversion to .jpg why would you remove variety like this.
If you're referring to the 128x emblems if it's possible or not, I speak from experience that I made the clan page display 256x emblems, you just need to change the max size of the emblem in the xml via moving things around. And of course change the file uploading changes to reflect on the new max size.
I did that for Hymn's long dead server back in 2000s. 256x is pretty massive, so 128x is a nice medium so we dont have to see upscaled and nasty looking emblems but make sure to change the xml file or it won't do much good and if you dont, it will still upscale or downscale on the clan page.
Spoiler!
For some reason I believe we had 150x150, might be wrong here.
Also game room as in the stage room (where you select the map, players and such), if so it is pretty easy to add a shop button in there.
Just wondering with what the "completely different take on clan wars" is, cause I am all ears for that.
There were no updates from my end for a few weeks because I was on a vacation.
I'll be back in a few days to make some progress on the website again.
We're getting close, but still have to wait on a couple of people to finish their work before we can go into the testing phase.
the forum better be good
And my infractions better be gone
I just hopped online and noticed the CQ strat where people just hang on the wall, will V8 have a change where you can no longer hang on walls in QC or Quest to make it slightly harder to finish both?
FG might have 150x (havent measured it) but the file upload only supports 64x so everything is blurry and shitty when upscaled. If you're going to do any upscaling or downscaling make sure its an even ratio or it will look like ass, which is why I suggested 128x being double the size but still an even ratio. I know that from many years of working in photoshop.
The completely different take on clan wars was that we revolved things around entire factions so you would choose your side and have battles between warring factions and the total of everyone in that faction would be measured against everyone in the other faction. It's basically the same as MMOs do race wars, it was a lot of fun and very different for GunZ to have it. It also meant that we removed the limitation of a clan (which was now a faction) being full.
Spoiler!
v8 is half-life 3 for gunz
v8 for 2020 im sure
woahyahaha
