Possible hint & demo site
by Steven Jackson · in Marble Blast · 02/02/2004 (2:06 pm) · 12 replies
If all goes well, I'll be ordering a domain name and hosting this week sometime. I recently purchased Marble Blast Gold, and I'm loving it, so I've been looking around the forums lately. Apparently the demo's don't work well on other people's computers. I've not been able to test this, but my own .rec's seem to work fine. If we can manage to get these working properly, I'll be happy to host people's demos and level hints on passing gold times. I realize if the hint book gets large enough, Alex is willing to host them here on GG's Marble page, which is by all means good - he can just steal them off the site and put them on there. If we can get the demos working, hopefully this will motivate people to start making more hints for the hint book. I can't do it by myself - I suck compared to all you marble veterans :)
As for the demo making, I've managed to make them and they play back fine on my own system (Windows XP). I know no others who have MB so I haven't been able to have others test them. If there were some way to get these demos working, it'd be excellent. Comments?

@ Kostas Del: I received the e-mail, but when I attempt to download the attachment using hotmail it says it can't find the link... odd? Happen to have a website of any sort you could upload it to, or do you want to try e-mailing it again? If you've got AIM, I could take it on there, too - Gamer TazarHopefully I can get it somehow :)

Hey Bob, the website has been set up but it seems our team wants to keep it secret for a bit... once we get to the point where we can do something with it, I'll let you know :)Edit: As for the demos Kostas sent me, the first set actually worked - but the second set were all weird..

Of course I don't mind, if there's already a site out with marbleman in charge, what use is there for me making one? Only reason I was going to make one is because I didn't see any up, anyways ;)

That's OK. I was going to insert a high score section but I hadn't had the time. Thanx for the compliment! ;)
