Please contact fansites@reakktor.com if:

wouldn't it be a good idea to include the font aswell?

Okay sorry for the double post ;) but on Most MMO sites ive seen e.g

Lineage II and Final Fantasy Online, they both have details of each class, for example human, Ogre etc.

Now looking through the Fansite Kit ive seen a 'classes' set of images.. Why not encorperate this into a page featuring details of each class:

Monk
Private Eye
Tank
Spy

Focusing on the images supplied in the Fansite kit.. I think this will add to versatility to the site.. Also making it 'newbie' friendly.

Sorry for the 'OT'
But what ya think?

You are both right. :)

We'll give the fansite kit a version number and will update it from time to time.

heh, judging from fonts in game, it's better for everyone to NOT include any fonts : D

They don't need to include the fonts anyway, they're easily findable in your neocron2\fonts folder. :p

Just a quick aside ...

Fansite List (http://cp.neocron.com/23/Fan%20Sites) page is a tad b0rked currently - no links/URLs, just names.

The banners work as links, though I do agree the names need to work as well.

Hrmm - I don't see the banners.

Just non-hyperlinked plaintext, and no images.

e.g.

News Sites


NeocronNetwork

Language: German


Neoterm

Language: English

Edit : Never mind - it seems to be a local browser issue - it works from a plain vanilla IE install on another machine

But are these the fonts used in the in game artwork (i.e.faction logos?)

Actually, you're right, those aren't in there. Valid point in that case.

Is the fansite listings not being updated anymore?

I also originally sent an email nearly 2 weeks ago now to ask for our banner to be added, then again on the 4th just incase they didn't get the first one :p. Still no changes though? :confused:

The list has been updated, but due to a small ftp access problem, the banners haven't been updated yet.

Aside from "updating" banners, how about getting banners to work at all? I'm using Firefox 1.0 and no banners display at all. I checked the html code looks ok other than the / after the border tag. However trying to load the .jpg's themselves showing nothing. Theres an image there but its just blank ;\

Wouldn't matter much if there were text links to go along with them.

............. :wtf: only getting on for 30 days.. last time i recall the time it takes to upload such a small image file is like 5 seconds..

FN m8,i think we should give up.. maybe we could print it out and stick it on the monitor O_o

Oh come on. It's only been 46 days! You know how long it takes to upload 4k these days.

Hey Nid, can you use that ban hammer of yours to beat the hell out of whoever it is that can't seem to take 33 seconds out of their day to upload a f*#&king file? :mad: You do see how insanely riduculous this is getting, right KK? 4 kilobytes. 4 freaking kilobytes... o_O

@ Odin: "Hectic". I can understand that getting the fansite updates delayed by a few days, maybe even a week. Hell, that happens here at my job. But it's been 6 weeks. And this isn't something that just has 'been forgotten' because we've been reminding and posting and PESTERING over and over and over again the entire time. I was dabbling in starting a NC2 Webring typed community to promote NC2 on the web - but there is NO ambition to do that, let alone update nc.syn when the *simplest* of requests can't be fulfilled in almost two months. I'm not asking for NPC Playershops and Item Tracking here :rolleyes:

Ascension

There is no Info on the FTP access... they just cant be arsed basiclly.. sadly FN left the community and fortited his forum account...

just another primes example of KK's in-ability to finish anything..

BUMPETY BUMP! UPLOAD THE FUCKING BANNER ALREADY! 3 months down and its still the default! :mad: stop taking the piss already!

It would be nice to have the fansite listings updated especialy with changes to the new banners and corrections in regards to languages e.g. www.techhaven.org (http://www.techhaven.org) being english but as one of the new admins at nc.syn as FN left i guess i should have a go at complaining aswell, question is though are there problems with the web team at KK as it would seem all aspects of the neocron.com website are falling behind.

Nidhogg i guess this is another one for you to peek into with your new title :)

Hey, bumping is bad, but in this case I'll let you off. I knew there was something else I needed to add to my to-do list and this was it. In the scheme of things I'd probably not get as worked up over this one as one or two other things but I don't see any reason why it can't be finished off.

Let me see what I can do.

/edit - actually, I'll see if I can get development control over the fansite page. It probably fits more into my job description now.
