Wow. - ai - 03-23-2010
So I have a time off from the Nexuiz community and all because of personal reasons. And then I hear from morfar what has been happening. Kinda like a blow below the belt.
Oh well, I don't care much about what is going on, just that things do go on. Well, I don't know what will happen to either of the games, but I'll stick through this and see what happens.
Oh btw, I am 'ai'. I couldn't use that nick as it's 3 characters minimum. It's for the better though, I go around the Interwebs with the nick Seijiro more than ai. It's only in the Nexuiz community I am known as it, now that it's gone I suppose my nick is as well (finally! xD I wanted to get rid of it).
So, here I am again! I wish you guys luck with this project. Not that you need it I think.

Welcome back Ai (har har)!
Yeah, it's a little surprising what has been happening around here, but this seemed like the best way out to ensure a deal like that doesn't happen again. Besides, it appears that the fork really has helped getting motivation for many up again, with lots of quality content being spit out all the time
. I'm hoping we can release within one month, and with the current speed it really seems like a possible thing to happen too.

Hey welcome back! Nice to have you on board here as well!
RE: Wow. - ai - 03-23-2010
Cool, I hear stuff about new player models and animations. But I suppose that's a more long term goal?
Heh, thanks Halogene.
RE: Wow. - Grasshopper - 03-23-2010

All the Nexuiz playermodels are thrown out, and replaced by the awesome new playermodels in the initial release.
Heh, thanks Halogene.
I suppose they will still use the old crappy animations, since nobody really seems to have access to motion capture...
RE: Wow. - ai - 03-23-2010
You don't need motion capture if it's me animating. ^_^ (just kidding)
But where did you guys get the player models from then and how many you got? They all got made in this short amount of time this project has been running? If so.. that's just too wicked. Nexuiz had so much trouble with that.
RE: Wow. - The mysterious Mr. 4m - 03-23-2010
i do remember occasional throw-in's from modelers and also see new models on CTF servers when i connect.
Hey ai!
i caught a cold (or the cold caught me, lol) and then learned about the news, which was a real downer, at first. It was a horrible week; family/personal issues, sick, couldn't get out, no internet.... But it was long due, somehow and everybody learned something valuable (hopefully). I got myself internet now and the community saved Nexuiz - err, i mean Xonotic.
RE: Wow. - Ang - 03-23-2010
Never known you, new to the Nexuiz community and all, but welcome back!
RE: Wow. - ai - 03-23-2010
Thank you Ang. I have a good feeling about you. xD Don't disappoint me. Lool.
Cheers mate!
@4m: Yeah been there, done that.
RE: Wow. - Roanoke - 03-23-2010
Welcome back, aI. The playermodels you're talking about have been released mostly on the nexuiz forum, but by and large ignored. Now, with a concentrated (for now) effort, people are rigging and animating models to replace the old models.
RE: Wow. - theShadow - 03-23-2010
hi AI. I miss your amusing GIF's
RE: Wow. - CuBe0wL - 03-24-2010
Welcom back ai!
Really nice to see you're back!* CuBe0wL makes great bear hug
RE: Wow. - ai - 03-24-2010
Oh my god no!! This is terrible! Maximum avatar size is 100x100! This means the DEATH of my funny gifs! I hope it can be changed in the future. This breaks my heart.
It was one of the best things with the alienTRAP forum, much freedom in that regard.
RE: Wow. - Roanoke - 03-24-2010
Yeah, the new forum isn't too popular, it seems.

This new forum? Or are you talking about another new forum?
It more looks like this forum is thriving, with hundreds of replies every day and almost all the people from the old forums coming over. That sounds pretty popular to me...
RE: Wow. - urmel - 03-25-2010
funny gifs below 100x100 are possible. I'm sure htere are.
RE: Wow. - ai - 03-25-2010
Yeah true, but they would be so small. Some gifs lose their funniness if you can't really see what's going on. I've made some gifs small before and it totally ruined the whole thing. Couldn't really see what went on, or read texts as well if there are some.
But.. I solved it for the time being having my gifs in the signature instead. -_^

WTF? Why should anyone post "oh i love this forum, its sooo full of information and helpful people" three days after it was started? It takes time to build that but in the long run the forum will be a place where to find basicly everything..
RE: Wow. - Erusavion - 03-26-2010
These forums just started... They're actually really active in my opinion. For just being open a couple of days and having hundreds of posts is pretty active. I don't understand why anyone would outright compliment a forum anyway. That just seems awkward. That's like saying "Wow, this chatroom is very nice. Lovely atmosphere."
