Progress man. Know you've had a lot going on in life and all, so glad to see you're back to it 👍

Got my netstat code working again. Just need to put it in the database and code the widget to display it. Should be doable within a few days.

Seems Steam uses the OpenID format, not Oauth2. IPB has some of the OpenID authentication protocol set up, but not fully enabled. I'm going to have to do some coding to actually get this working. May be a few weeks.

Got the files all organized. Just need to create categories here and start uploading them. Expect this within the next week or so

What clients are in development right now? Or games? Heard Poid was working on something?

Sniper - 1995 & 1996 SubSpace - 1997 to 2001 Continuum - 2001 to present People asking why I didn't choose a SubSpace related name... well, at this point we have had the Continuum Client for 6x as long as SubSpace was the PRIMARY client.

Going to work on creating a new theme for these forums, so shouldn't look so plain soon enough. THE Massively Multiplayer Online Game - Games and Clients inspired by the original MMOG test game Sniper, Circa 1995

Launch a beginners page I had created but never released A widget that shows the zones and their current populations Restore Zoner and its old comics Bring back some of the more popular pages from the old websites A Sniper 30th Anniversary/history of the game page (might reach out to some gaming websites about this anniversary too... traffic?)

Going to begin rebuilding the file repository for the game. I have quite a few files along with a huge back-up of SSDL. I will make sure to scan files before uploading them, as I know many had viruses/were viruses. Just a fault in the SSDownloads file submission system.

Wow, they don't default it to allow forum login. Turned that on now 😅

Going to see if it is possible to do this like I did the discord one. Will update if any progression is made.

Pretty straight forward as Invision has this as a default option. Hopefully no bugs.

Took some toying and tweaking as I didn't care to pay for integration applications that do WAAAY more than I needed, but got the login/register function working. Keep me updated if any issues!

Since the zone description linked to the old SubSpace.co forums, figured I'd go ahead and restore them here

I've been asked many times about restoring a central forum system for the game and its clients, so here we go?
