| Posted : Saturday, 24 August 2002 - 18:28 looking good...
(will come back and edit in more when I have seen more) ferion is a P2P game, well you need a key to play it. again ferion is not just text baised. more like 2D. a 2D game the is a good game, SPACE; space.coldfirestudios.com/
Infantry was good till it went to P2P. 3D, real time game.
I click on neveron and go through the whole process to get to the site. I get to the neveron home page on a diferent screen, so I hit the back button on the directory and it just reloads the neveron main page. Last Edited : Saturday, 24 August 2002 - 18:43 | Dahvood Joined 6/07/2002 Posts : 80

forums are acting up a bit though ----
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e14'
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'PostID', table 'GamesOnline.dbo.mb_Posts'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
/gon/forums/post.asp, line 78

tried posting in the announcements under the "Welcome to GamesOnline.Net !!" topic
the number of replies in the thread still incremented, and it says i was the last poster, but there is only your post in the thread
looking good though | | Requiem [R]Joined 3/02/2000 Posts : 4882
| Posted : Saturday, 24 August 2002 - 21:11 thanks guys. I've fixed the forum and new-game bugs, so you can now post in the forums and add new games and modify your submitted ones.
so is Ferion 2D or just static images? and do u purchase the game or pay an ongoing subscription?
i've also fixed the game opening thing.
so, how do we get ppl to use it? | | Requiem [R]Joined 3/02/2000 Posts : 4882
| Posted : Saturday, 24 August 2002 - 22:22 hmm. i'm not too happy with the site design of it though.
i'm thinking of using the WarOnline (frames) design but with a white background. what do you think?
anyone have any better ideas for a sight design for it? Last Edited : Saturday, 24 August 2002 - 22:27 | dudley Joined 12/07/2002 Posts : 348
| Posted : Sunday, 25 August 2002 - 22:24 get people to use it... hmmm... and de-throne the mighty MPOGD... not an easy task, to be sure... understanding google PROPERLY is a good place to start tho... a mate once told me of an entirely plausible way of making a site, and getting it ranked very high in the google search, within a matter of days / weeks... it was largely over my head, but he really knew his stuff...
the design does need to change, no doubt... making it look like waronline is a fine idea tho, IMHO... white backgrounds just dont turn on most hardcore netheads - the kinda people u are most likely to be dealing with... | | dby Joined 30/03/2002 Posts : 1441
| Posted : Monday, 26 August 2002 - 07:59 I kinda like the layout, nice and basic. Easy to understand. Maybe needs a bit of colour? And maybe dark background? It's kinda gray and pale now, and I think dudley might have a point about the background. :\ | | CTDXXX Joined 19/11/2001 Posts : 5842
| Posted : Monday, 26 August 2002 - 13:24 Well, I like the black already here, white never really worked for me
Of course, you might not want it looking TOTALLY like this site :-) | | savetuba Joined 5/11/2001 Posts : 1379
| Posted : Monday, 26 August 2002 - 13:28 Ferion is static. pay to play is very different. you can play the game without buying anything. or you can buy a KEY that unlocks the upper lvls of the tech tree. A KEY is a 1 time only buy. good for 1 acount only. | | Genghis Bob Joined 11/11/2001 Posts : 875
| Posted : Monday, 26 August 2002 - 15:45 Yeah you don't want it to look exactly like this site, but a darker shade for a background would be better (as dby and dudley suggested). Perhaps a dark crimson, or dark green? I don't know, play around and see what looks best in your eyes but is not like this site or white (though I guess you already said you didn't like white), then I'm sure you'll hear what we think :-D | | CTDXXX Joined 19/11/2001 Posts : 5842
| Posted : Monday, 26 August 2002 - 16:26 There is one case for making both sites identical - making a running theme. But Req has his own tastes, so only he knows what he has planned... | | Requiem [R]Joined 3/02/2000 Posts : 4882
| Posted : Tuesday, 27 August 2002 - 03:29 Update Complete!
Its now got a completely new look. What do you think?
I've also added Cheats and Hints/Tips to the games. | | dby Joined 30/03/2002 Posts : 1441
| Posted : Tuesday, 27 August 2002 - 08:26 wooh! nice! | | dudley Joined 12/07/2002 Posts : 348
| Posted : Wednesday, 28 August 2002 - 13:10 hey, req has posted in the past few days... but only here... seems he has been busy with 'other projects'... u know how a young child feels when he gets a new sibling? i think waronline is feeling neglected req, it needs you... its needs a strong father figure in its life right about now.. its teething req... it needs you... lol
and your site does look nicer than it used to... its good now... i will always prefer a blacker background, but i understand that u dont want the sites to look too similar... ... | | Requiem [R]Joined 3/02/2000 Posts : 4882
| Posted : Wednesday, 28 August 2002 - 13:41 well, i've actually been trying to resolve these server issues lately.
i finished gamesonline a few days ago. it just needs more games, and ppl to use it.
and there are new things coming to waronline. just takes a bit of work to get it happening, which makes doing updates and forum stuff a bit harder |
