And I mean the kawoosh and the event horizon. No gray or fuzzy :D So can we have the preloader too? :3 Edit: No I never got the "beta" gates, so I don't have the preloader >:O Zachary Carter on "ASN 2.0" http://www.alpha-fox.com/community/topic.php?id=270#post-1203 Tue, 05 Oct 2010 15:22:52 +0000 Zachary Carter 1203@http://www.alpha-fox.com/community/ Hey everybody! I realize that I've been MIA for the past, well, while. I'm loaded up with classes at uni and that is causing me to have a lack of time to maintain the network. However, I wanted to give you an update as to where I currently am with the network. 1) ASN 2.0 is essentially completed. It needs to be tested, and have any new features we may have come up with recently added in... but it does work. 2) The new website will be based on Drupal. I'm sick of maintaining my own CMS and dealing with its buggyness. If anyone else has a suggestion for an easy to integrate CMS, please let me know! 3) The name2key / key2name has been discontinued due to people spamming it and killing our servers. We have no plans for this service to return. 4) The forum will be going away and replaced with a simple blog, unless there is great opposition to this. 5) We will be utilizing a third party support system for support (see: Zendesk, etc) instead of our current support system (IRC, forums, support ticket, it doesn't work well together) 6) Terminals are a thing of the past, and we will no longer have any AFVI services due to HTTP-IN. 7) The gate network will be greatly simplified, and an API will be created to let people create their own gates. Things such as the "User Gate Profile" (list of gates in your profile "Web" tab) will be removed as they are not worth maintaining. ------- Hopefully winter break will allow for more work on this, and you guys will see a upgraded network coming your way! For now, enjoy the network and let me know of any pressing issues. Zach Ice Brodie on "Adding a glyph for "Stargate: Equestria"" http://www.alpha-fox.com/community/topic.php?id=274#post-1232 Tue, 13 Mar 2012 03:56:01 +0000 Ice Brodie 1232@http://www.alpha-fox.com/community/ Between Bronies becoming a fairly popular internet subculture, and there being an actual fanfic for MLP and Stargate SG-1, I would like to request that the Equestria PoO be added to the PoO selection. For pic: <a href="http://illogicallabs.com/images/sgequestria.png" rel="nofollow">http://illogicallabs.com/images/sgequestria.png</a> For the Fanfic: <a href="http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/05/story-stargate-equestria.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.equestriadaily.com/2011/05/story-stargate-equestria.html</a> I for one found the fanfic to be a good read, the SG-1 characters are as true to form as possible given what they're working with (small talking pastel equines). I blame Stargate: Equestria for why I'm into MLP, I'm actually not alone. I'm including it here to show what this is all about.

Orientation and SIM TP points etc .. I was "/d random"gly tonight and in the 6 I did .. I never once landed at the gate ... on 4 I had to use Phoenix Area search to find the gate and on the other 2 I just gave up after either landing in abandoned land and face landing in the dirt or just not finding a gate .. .... Do we still report "out of spec gates" ?? and what's the rules could not find them on the site Ivy Sunkiller on "So how can you actually get a gate now?" http://www.alpha-fox.com/community/topic.php?id=271#post-1210 Mon, 24 Jan 2011 14:59:00 +0000 Ivy Sunkiller 1210@http://www.alpha-fox.com/community/ Hey there! I'm kind of new, Ash has sent me the package and I've been working out with it quite nicely, made my own DHD already and what not, but that's not the topic :). Since I got the gate I've been viral advertising it to folks, and this brings me to a problem - the release package is practically not obtainable atm: 1) The '<a href="http://www.alpha-fox.com/asn/get/">Get</a>' page here - it didn't work for me, neither did it work for anyone else I know (character not found on grid). 2) Subnova Citadel in world - I assume the sim closed? Not the first one, not the last one :). 3) SL Exchange - got closed, the gate is not on the new Marketplace (this would be the easiest and most effective way to propagate them?) 4) Apez.biz - that site seems to have issues of their own and registering there is next to impossible. All in all, you really can't get a gate unless someone sends you one (like I've got it). Ivy Sunkiller on "Because a picture is worth 1000 words: send images over stargate chatter via SVP" http://www.alpha-fox.com/community/topic.php?id=272#post-1215 Fri, 28 Jan 2011 00:45:50 +0000 Ivy Sunkiller 1215@http://www.alpha-fox.com/community/ If anyone came up, developed, and released something similar before, shoot me. Otherwise, I claim this to be named Sunkiller Visual Protocol! <a href="https://marketplace.secondlife.com/p/SVP-Standalone-Display-for-ASN/1875897">Prototype, full-perm, freebie device</a> (yes, that's Cerberus logo there, that's what I use on my chevrons in my little ME cross-over, I'll put something else there once I've more time). The idea is simple: Send 4:3 (for convenience) image UUID over chatter after establishing wormhole with the name of "_SVP_" (so it gets ignored by "radio" like the SGC chatter), example: send chatter|_SVP_|459b9ff3-ad0f-0160-2bc1-f323840ba606|1 Obviously, reading is same way: chatter|_SVP_|<texture UUID> Grab a texture, slam it on a prim. I've it working in my WIP DHD (dial Blackbird) and there is a very basic screen at friends place (dial Extropia Beta), both sending and receiving, should you need a test.

One of my gates, of the Pegasus type, had its shield raised when I logged on today. It definitely wasn't me who raised it, because it was used today (not be me).

If we try to look at the Stargate network knew in the show, when they dial to a busy gate the stargate stop dialing like it actually does and that's all, the already done wormhole stay connected. To apply the actual problem to real life, imagine : You are calling your cousin by phone, but the line seems to be busy, you don't close their call, you just hear that annoying sound and they continue to speak withotu you and without knowing that you tried to dial. The stuff to try to fix or change is the cut power when the busy gate got a dial attemp from an other gate.

For example: If the owner selects not to allow the stargate to dial a Mature sim, it neither dials a mature sim, nor an adult content sim. Thanks again for reading this guys.
