Happy New Year everyone.
After a week of work I completed a new method for querying the Swat 3 game server and I think in most ways it is a vast improvement over the old method. When we moved to the new webhost I ran into a big problem considering the new host didn't allow tcp/ip communication. I assume the server's firewall is the issue. I had to get creative due to this limitation so I created a new application that runs on the same computer as the Swat 3 server. It only sends an update once every ten minutes for now but once I get an idea of the impact on the website I may change the update time.
Next thing on my agenda is to spend time making a webpage to explain the whole NeuWon/Swat 3 situation. I need to explain the whole process for getting your Swat 3 to work with NeuWon so people can play online like the old days. I need to make is easier for people to understand since the NeuWon website is confusing as hell (and buggy).
After that I need to get back to local testing of the beta release of the Last Resort mod that I published on Christmas day. I have not received any feedback from the public on the beta and I can understand why. I basically disappeared for more than 6 months and many people gave up visiting this website. Most people just want the final release I suspect.
