I hope yall get a chance to explore the site and see what we've got to offer; it's getting better as my php coding continues

It's looking good SW

When do you deploy again ??

RDP

Thanks RDP!
I get shipped off again on Saturday

Oh well...the sea pay and flight deck pay are helping pay off my car and hopefully should fund the next computer I buy

I'm rather disappointed that I won't see the mod database function as it should while I'm at sea, unfortunately my php guru/master still has to teach me how to use MySQL effectively but hopefully he'll have time to fine tune it for me while I'm away.

At least I'm not leaving without having put some effort towards the community though, felt pretty rotten that I even left the site as an empty shell the first time

Thank you Fubar2Niner!

Took a lot of off-duty hours to get it looking that way so I really hope it's useful to this community in the future!

For the final time this year I'm going back out to sea for 2 months; I can't say when I'll be back or where I'm going exactly, but it'll be some time in June before I return.

Til then everything is in the hands of the staff team, so if you have any questions go ahead and point them to CapZap, Koondawg, Yamato9 or Carotio. If they can't help you, they all have my email address to the ship; it'll take a little while longer to get anything squared away, but you'll be taken care of...this isn't the first time

Wish you all the best, hope to see more modders & skinners join us before I get back and I'm looking forward to seeing all the new developments around the community!

Take care!

Umm, I forgot my BTS password and, worse, I forgot what email address I used to register. When I click "send me my password" it says it has emailed me. I believe it, but none of my "current" email accounts have got an email in them.

If a BTS moderator is reading, please PM me and I'll supply a current email addy in exchange for my password!

I hate being the bearer of bad news..but... we kinda hit a lamp pole in the middle of the road, so to speak...

Most of you know we've got 192 files and 150-some-odd images in use within our forums to bring you all the great mods that we host for SH3 and SH4, well today we (I / me & Phantom) managed to bring that to a grinding halt with a few clicks of a mouse.

What happened was this, in our efforts to keep you all from having to register once more on our site to access files we decided to piggy-back off of our forums database and use the memberlist from there. In order to get the files to show up with the correct creator, the author's name needed to be the same as it was on the forums as well as the author's folder. Therein lied our problem, 95% of our authors had to have their folders changed to match their name. 3 of them needed new accounts altogether and if you got an email from me at 0130 EST you were one of them, the rest, since they were either admins or for whatever reason didn't need adjusting, weren't quite effected as badly by the FTP bug, however they were still screwed because now they need to go back and adjust the links.

So if you can understand what I'm trying to say, a simple thing such as changing a folder has rippled into a massive cluster of chaos for us. I don't have an ETA on when we expect to be back up, word has been put out to either ride this out and wait for us to do our job or go in and start adjusting links; I left that up to the developers to decide for themselves.

The good news is that none of the files were harmed when we did this, all your mods that were on here before still are and we're still taking new mods, they just might not be available as of yet.

I'll keep you posted on what's going on, it's a bit of a mess and it's time for me to go to bed so I'll see what I can clean up tomorrow.

Sorry for any inconvenience this might've caused, I can say though that it's about damn time we get these files off the forums and on to the site for you guys cause this is gonna clean everything up real nice!

I can add though that we got our login menu working on our main page, it'll disappear as soon as you log on and redirect you right to our forums for now until I get that part fixed!!!

We're actually unveiling the new version of the BtSMSD layout for the file library:

Hope you guys enjoy this, Phantom really is putting all his effort into this part and I'm eternally grateful for that!!

We really need to get beyond the Military Acronym stuff.

I've been out for over 20 years and I'm getting confused.
