I believe both Dune 2000 and Emperor used engines written by Intelligent Games out of the UK which were never used by other Westwood titles. I might be mistaken but I don't think Emperor and Generals share the same data formats so the work they're doing wouldn't be relevant to Emperor.

He comes around every so often. You can @ people now so we'll see if he still has notifications on. Paging @Edric O.

I've updated the forum software to the latest version, 4.2.1: https://invisioncommunity.com/news/invision-community-42-r1030/ If you notice anything odd let me know and I can try to fix it.

That would be me. The website hasn't been updated in some time and the forum downloads section transitioned to be the source for maps. You should be able to upload the map to this thread and then I can add it to the forum downloads section: https://forum.dune2k.com/files/category/53-the-terminal/

I've updated the forum software to the latest version. If you're curious this is all the things that have been added/changed/fixed since our last update: If you see anything broken let me know.

While the website itself isn't focused around Transport Tycoon you are free to discuss it. This is general discussion after all.

When I upgraded the forum software from 3.x to 4.x the editor changed quite a lot. But that was at least a year ago so it shouldn't have changed too much since then. Having access to the "raw" mode wouldn't be much easier because under the hood it is all HTML now and not BBCode like it used to be. I'm also not sure if I can even enable that mode for anyone but the admin account. If you want to just quote selections of a post you can highlight that text and then a "Quote this" link should appear. Does that make it easier? Also, as an aside, if you are writing and hit "Enter" that will create a new paragraph but if you hit "Shift-Enter" it will just be a line break.

Yep, I upgraded it at the same time, forgot to mention it.

@Nyerguds, I also like the power of BBCode but it seems like that option is going away more and more with each release of IP.Board. It does a lot of other things well though so I don't really plan on switching. I did just upgrade the forum software to the latest version so perhaps that has fixed some of those bugs you were experiencing. @X3M, posting has been fairly steady for the last year. Obviously nothing like it was years ago when the Dune games were more active. Here are the release notes for all the versions between what we have now and what we had before: https://invisionpower.com/release-notes/41142-r49/ https://invisionpower.com/release-notes/41132-r48/ https://invisionpower.com/release-notes/41131-r47/ https://invisionpower.com/release-notes/4113-r44/ https://invisionpower.com/release-notes/41123-r46/ https://invisionpower.com/release-notes/41122-r45/

Good to see you're still at it Stefan.

Are they maps hosted in the downloads section?

I've attached the missing map Gwizz mentions in the first post.

Okay, I've uploaded the latest version which generates the post you see above which I merged into this thread. You should also be able to upload a new version of the map or other maps in the future. btw, if anyone else wants the ability to upload maps to the download section just let me know.

For editing I made a second group that has unlimited editing which I believe is after 500 or 1000 posts. Anyone below that will have the 1 year limit. I believe there is a way to do the smiley from text... I will check the settings and get back to you because I'm pretty sure it did work at some point. It should work now, it looks like it had replace all the regular short way of typing with the longer approach of ":something:". Some of them are still that way but the more common ones should work. Right now I have in their short form.

Should be fixed now, some of the old attachments were broken when the forum was upgraded. I've been slowly fixing them as I have time.
