Zelda Universe - The Next Version - What do you want to see?

This is what's said on the "main site" (well really, it's the default page):

UPDATE FRIDAY, JANUARY 7th, 2005:
Unfortunately, due to a lot of unexpected problems, we have been forced to push back the release of the site with at least a couple of days. We simply haven't had enough time to re-add all the content into the new system, but basicly that is the only thing that remains, and we will be working non-stop on this until we are ready to release the new version to the public.

As of right now, the coming Sunday looks like the most likely release date. We will keep you informed.

And Lars just informed us on how the process is going. I say take as long as you need. When it's ready, someone will notify us. I'll be surprized (in a good way) to see it up tonight. But later on in the week will do fine for me also.

I didn't see it, but maybe I'm just stupid. I don't really visit the main page very often anyways. . .

The main site only says that they are experience some delays and that it will take longer than expected. The site also says that sunday would be a good bet but as you can see its monday and still no site.

Cool. I can't wait to see it. It sounds like it will be really good and efficient.

Just so everyone knows, its working on a eventual process. If you clikc on fan art on ZU, it takes you to the fan art in the new site. So, its all going to be peice by peice, revealing as it goes, although a lot will be all at once. Or so I've heard. But I am 100% sure about FAn Art being reset in the New version.

U can look at allready someone the things on ZU like the pictures will take u to the new version but it will be changed when It lanches

it's been delayed, but when it launches, I'm pretty sure it will be worth it. I just hope that it still has dark colors. My big brother doesn't want me contrasting with bright colors too much, since I'm the only one in our family that doesn't need glasses (even though my visions 30/20 now). I just hope that we don't get any more Zelda Haters.

*hah*
*urp*
*gets sick at the thought, literally*

Latest News:

Okay, I have set the launch date to FRIDAY 14th - That's one week delayed from the original plan.

We could _PROBABLY_ launch Wednesday, or at least Thursday, but I want to make sure that everything is up and running smoothly when we launch, therefore an extra day of testing will be only good.

And for those of you who wants to follow the development : http://www.zeldauniverse.net/index.php is the Beta Area, and we will keep you updated on the progress there!

Lars... Did you ever get the beta screenshot link that I've sent to you through msn?

GRR!

*dies from anticipation*

Uh, take your time. But I'm really excited to see it. I have 'feelings' about it.

i just want to be able to go on zeldauniverse.net w/o problems and only bein allowed to go into forums

the longer delayed the better we know its gonna be better

The longer delayed the better? Gah. I hope it's not delayed any longer... because that would mean we ran into some problem with the system, and need to fix it. I, for one, don't want to have to deal with a complication.

But rest assured, we will be launching on the 14th no matter what.

Yup; The major part of the content is already in place, all the kinks (as far as we know, anyways) with the scripting have been worked out, and the design part has been ready for at least a month already.

With that said - There is NOTHING that will prevent us from launching on the 14th.

..
....

I just know I shouldn't have said that. Never a good idea to mess with Murphy.

But the 14th it is!

Now probably probably said this earlier on in this thread (but I'm too lazy to check hehe....) but I was wondering....is the Chat Room going to improve? Possibly making it even easier to get into it (I've tried, never could).

Thanks,
-BGS

The Chat Room won't be changed in any significant way - It's actually quite simple to access; either through the Java client on the site (which might or might not work, all depending on your browser settings), or using a third party client (which instructions are already up there on the page for how to achieve).

the Java client dosnt work but theres another site I go to with the same like chat room and the Java client works.. o.o

Ah thanks for telling me. As for the whole Java Client thing....I think it's just me. I use the Java client way, however what I see is a white box on the window that sorta resembles something you'd see at AIM. After that, I'm lost. I don't know how to go into a chatroom, etc. I'm a complete newbie when it comes to the Chat Room.

Haha... don't I know that ^^;;. I wonder if you read my thread, Lars >.>...

Yeah, Don't mess with that guy. He's scary O_o... Though, with the release now set to friday I can get the walkthrough done for sure by then, which is good .

The Java client works fine for me, both in FireFox and IE, so. yeah.

And good GC, I hope you get it done!
