So, what is going on with all this software?
Can someone tell me what is going on with the BBS Restoration project? I'm trying to get my hands on TA for WG.. a legit WG license.. anything. It seems like this is the place where the licenses for most of this can be issued but there hasn't movement in ages. If there a pricelist? What is the deal?
Tele-Arena came to me in a bit of a piecemeal fashion. The author seems to have lost the source code to the original game. I have the full source code to the latest code base - he had worked to upgrade the game engine. The new engine debuted with Tele Arena II. The downside? TA II was a new world - it's smaller, and certainly the original author intended to expand it. But of course we all know what happened to the BBS world.
So, I have to try to retrofit the TA 1 world into the TA II engine. It's not exactly the same format. Complicating things is that I don't seem to have a full TA 1 final world in source format. I'm still going to work on it, but things at work for me since Fall 2006 have been ridiculously busy. That's why I haven't posted anything.
Further, I'm converting the web page to a Wiki format. I've asked a few people to provide feedback on it. The only thing holding me back from opening that side - even though it's not as complete as I'd like - is vandalism. I need to make it more secure, more moderated. There has been excessive vandalism on the Galacticomm wikipedia entry.
Behind the scenes, I've done a bit. I've found more people, found more software. I've had talks with many people interested in getting involved but all with one exception have vanished or wanted upfront cash for any efforts.
