News

Viper_KillerGuy coded the comment watch and we implemented it to the system. You can start watching comments in certain news, player gallery pictures or identities. When more places for comments are coded they will be added to this watch.

The comment watch is automatically enabled for your own Identity and Gallery pictures (you can disable them). The comment watch is managed through links under Functions in the right column in certain pages.

Examples:

• News: Golden Apple Awards pages
• Identity of Abula
• Picture of Abula

Receiving a comment makes a drop-down-menu box visible in Panel in the left column (the place where you see your nickname in yellow).

Please share your thoughts, report bugs and start writing comments to people :).

I've uploaded the new IRC page. Lots of new text, logs, stats and pictures there.

We also need some help to get more truthful statistics.

With a great help of SveinR I've created the GAA pages, at last. You find them under Community. Special thanks to skint0r for offering web space for FEM05 videos (there's one from the GAA05 gala). As usually please report all errors and improvement suggestions.

Three new World Records

WR table

Although we are not calling it kuski gallery anymore. Just generic Players.

All the old accounts with comments and default pictures are converted so go ahead to edit them or even add new ones.

Main links:

• Players
• Update/register your identity

Some good shortcuts to know (try them): your nick in the left column (yellow), Panel link in the left column.

New features:

• Nicer URLs, for example http://paprika.moposite.com/player/Abula/gallery
• Better picture management
• More sorting ways
• New items in the Identity page
• Faster usage
• Better layout
• Password reset

Upcoming features:

• Player search
• Comment watch
• Old nicknames
• Relations
• Teams
• Nations
• Cities

There are many errors left. At least people have weird cities, ages, birth dates and stories. We will try to fix most of them later but you could try to fix yours. And request your friends to fix theirs as well.

We have also added Argentina as new country and removed Miranda. Anything else needed?

Please report bugs, ask questions and suggest improvement here in comments or in Mopolauta feedback forum.

milagros released a new Elma patch, Elma Online beta, about a month ago. It was patched to the Very final 1.2 which was released on Moposite a few days ago.

By using the Elma Online beta you can multiplay over internet. It might be a bit laggy but at least axxu and rawl managed to drive two WRs by using it. It's recommended to use Skype, Teamtalk or something similar to get communicating easier.

There really is no place for EOL on Paprika yet and I move hosting it further to future.

After two years and 2000 hours (ok, I didn't count) and here we are. Paprika is up and running. Some people have known about it, some might have guessed something's going on, others might have not.

Paprika is the code name for the latest version of Moposite, its coding was started in the summer of 2004, while Abula was still in the army. At the moment, Paprika isn't even near to being complete, but we were still able to publish it now (user managing is working quite well and the basic structure to build on is there). This news will only cover a few of the more important things and the full, more detailed, list will be published at a later time.

• Elasto Mania 1.2 is released
• News section is totally renewed, it's much easier to use for news writers but it also supports comments, categories, filters and priorities - which will be explained thoroughly later on
• Panel: log in by using your Kuski gallery account information, you can edit some settings; if you have forgotten your password you must wait a bit; we will start the user managing in a few days time
• New main page for first-time visitors (it's only shown for visitors who are not logged in so click Remember me if you want to enter the News page directly instead of Main page when surfing to Moposite)
• Knowledge is a new main section, quite alot new material there
• Information section is fully updated
• The layout is tweaked and links are a bit more clever - eventhough they might be a bit confusing at first
• Administration has been made better and easier

For the time being, there aren't too many obvious changes around here, if you compare it to the two years it's taken us to get to this point. That's because we had to design and code the basics very carefully to make developing of the site easier in the future. New sections and features will be introduced as they are completed. The next major change will be to give a facelift to Kuski gallery and other community pages. That will include a much nicer user managing both for admins and visitors.

Bug reports are more than welcome.

People who have been or still are a part of this project:
Abula and Viper_KillerGuy - both have put alot of time and effort into the coding and obviously Abula being the leader of the whole project; Sathy - the editor, feedback; Zebra - Designing section; BarTek - Welcome pictures; skint0r - code support, feedback; SveinR, px, Tisk and Luther some minor tasks.

Drop a comment (right-bottom corner) or keep on discussing on Mopolauta.

Hibernatus has coded a brand new Elasto Mania 1.2 unofficial version offering many new features.. wait! That was three years ago! Yes, we are very well aware of that and as a main central of Elasto Mania community we should have released the new patch alot earlier. Our sincerest apologies for the delay.

However, we would like to come clear the actual reasons for the delay. The most important reason was that as we have high standards, we must carefully evaluate all the new patches to see whether or not they should be published - which basicly means checking for bugs and so on, because we don't want to confuse people with first a release and th en a bug fix right after. Of course there are many sound arguments against this reasoning, and we might eventually change our standards. One other important reason for the delay was the famous editor bug in the Final version. We wanted to have a solution for that and apparently Hibernatus fixed it for us after we requested it. This happened about one year ago. Also, we had planned on releasing the 1.2 at the same time with Paprika and I thought it wouldn't take more than a month or something. But as it turns out, it took alot longer than that! But anyway, here we have it.

This Very final 1.2 should be totally bug free, no known bugs involved:

• XP lag bug is fixed
• Across levels work in total time counter (they were problematic for example in Hoyla Mission total time calculating)
• The editor bug is fixed

A brief summary of the new things in Elma 1.2 compared to 1.11a:

• New options such as screen resolution, zoom, centered camera, replay saving reminder and possibility to edit locked levels
• Lev-Packs
• Advanced fast search in menus
• Merging replays
• Alovolt, brake alias and esc alias keys
• VCR-style controls when watching replays

A detailed list can be read on the Elma12.txt and some other information on the Elasto Mania information page.
