Dark_Mag, your way of writing HTML code is pretty outdated. I would recommend you to search for a HTML tutorial which follows the HTML 4.01 specifications (published in 1999).
  • former Manasource Programmer
  • former TMW Pixel artist
  • NOT a game master

Please do not send me any inquiries regarding player accounts on TMW.


You might have heard a certain rumor about me. This rumor is completely false. You might also have heard the other rumor about me. This rumor is 100% accurate.

Hmm,

Maybe Dark_Mag didn't want to get through the whole validation process for a simple proposal?

I prefer his existing website: http://tmw.cetki.com/4144/

BTW, why does his patch not get mainline If it is so popular with the noobs?

I guess you are trolling, but I am quite sure there are some people who are asking themself this question seriously.

1. The Manasource projects goal is to create a client which can be used on many different game world. A lot of features of the 4144 client are highly specific to TMW.
2. The modifications are targeted at advanced players. A lot of changes make the client very hard to understand for new players. Take the abbreviated button texts in the main bar, for example. Would you understand what button does what when you never played TMW before? And what exactly does "D3D73NI" in the status bar mean? The TMW client should be accessible to new players.
3. Some features are just gimmicks which are funny when only you have them but nonsensical when everyone has them, like the crazy walk feature.
4. Some features in the 4144 client look good from the outside, but the implementation "under the hood" could be done in a much better way to ensure long-term flexibility and maintainability.

Don't get me wrong. Not everything is bad with this patch. There are still a lot of interesting features. We already took some of them as inspiration for the mainline client. You should also know that 4144 (aka "{41444d494e}") is a frequent visitor of our development IRC channel and is working together with us at the mainline client.

In my opinion the 4144 client is an experimental client where a lot of stuff can be tried without having to take care about the long-term consequences for the main code base. And like everytime when you are experimenting there are experiments with good results, with bad results or with results which are neither good nor bad but still interesting. But in the end you can learn from every experiment, regardless of the outcome.

Well since I never played his patch my question was serious, but even If I was trolling I guess I was successful cause you answered ;)

So his patch is something like an ados patch. (kudos to those who still know what that means :P )

If you're going to use a screen shot on that abomination of a website, you might want a mock-up that demonstrates feature set
