I had one since 1999, but yeah, it basically was a spam archive. Took boardhost years to implement a user feature. By then I switched over to bluecrimson.com and E-Blah as the forum, which seems to be spam free so far but then again there's barely any post traffic on it.

Back to BGC, Hiryu should have something soon to test the code against. Right now he's cleaning up a ton of the graphics and working on coding the storyboard. The project post at http://www.bluecrimson.com/cgi-bin/forum/Blah.pl?m-1255233175/ has a ton of the cleaned up interfaces, and it's looking great so far.

Seems like bots got rather smart these days and now can spam almost every software. Since E-blah isn't as common, I guess this might be why it isn't as spammed, though. On yAronet I never heard of bots either, even if it has been around since 2001 and got 3 million posts total. Probably due to being proprietary software.

As for BGC, WOW nice menus and stuff, and I love the mech-style battle characters/enemies. Nice job so far!

Well my weekend push is technically over - but I think I am going to keep going >_<

Some of the basic things I changed:

1. Alot of the ingame system menus have been replaced with custom hand drawn interfaces.





2. Text based menus & stat boxes have been replaced as well.







3.Revamped the Victory! & LevelUp windows & system.





That is the outline of all the updates - detailed information can be found here:  http://www.bluecrimson.com/cgi-bin/forum/Blah.pl?m-1255233175/s-15/

Well I decided that most in-game TI-89 popup menus will be replaced by hand drawn ones. I know this will take up extra memory - but if figure if its gonna be done - make it look pretty >_<

Some more screen shot updates:

Nice :D

I like custom menus, else when games always use the default TI menus, it looks too simple and less original it seems. Sometimes they won'tfit that well either.

Well to summarize this update - ALL TI-89 popup menus have been removed & replaced with their own GUI or icon..etc.etc.
Found more bugs - fixed em. Finally I can say I am down to 2 major things I have to complete to have a working beta:

1. Enemy/Game Balancing

2. Story/Arc Game Progression

The project is still active, but work is really taking a toll on my free time.

Currently, I got open tickets with Microsoft (now going on two months for a totally random network printing issue. I think I exhausted all of their script chimps finally and are moving up to tier 3) and Sophos (roughly 1 call a week. I'm trying to get them to actually do something about their disinfection system and tighten tampering of their services) for various bugs and they are both pretty much insisting on working on these after hours, and to top it all off, we're understaffed, so it just keeps getting busier and busier.

Historically, I work on it during the Christmas break, and considering they're forcing me to take vacation before the end of the year, I'll probably get some time to piece together the parts that are pretty much done, but not complete.

AMAZING GRAPHICS :D

From the screenshots I can tell it's for the 89, but I still think it's beast anyways :D

Keep up the good work!

Darn I hope you get less busy eventually. It would be cool if this was finished :)

Good luck!
