Title: And so on and so forth
Post by: Rolken on February 17, 2007, 04:41:20 am: TSC has been somewhat less awesome than necessary of late. This isn't to say it hasn't been awesome, for such is of course observed as a Universal Truth by our own infallible documenting, but rather that there has been a gap of sorts between how awesome we -are- and how awesome we -could be-.

I intend to rectify this.

The concept of TSC4 and developmental branches or versions in general has been dissolved. All meaningful additions will be merged into the currently live code and future developments will be added as they are made. As such, improvements should be made visible much more regularly rather than arbitrarily held back and dumped once every year or two.

Most notably, administrative tools once merged back into 'TSC3' are complete. Skin creation isn't automated, and I'm not sure it ever will be; those desiring to make their own might want to check out the CSS sheet on F-Man's version of Stardust (and learn some CSS) for a starting point.

Also, Sonic the Fighters is up.

I'll be out of town for the next week, only occasionally popping in via sorrowful 56K AOL. Further bulletins as events warrant.

Thanks once again Rolken and that's good news.

Post by: Groudon on February 17, 2007, 07:49:58 pm: Makes sense, since that's what it was originally released on.

Naturally. I say Arcade/Gamecube or Arcade.

Post by: PsyBorg on February 18, 2007, 01:54:09 pm: It should be listed as Arcade, because it was originally that way.
Title: Re: And so on and so forth
Post by: KnucklesSonic8 on February 18, 2007, 02:09:19 pm: Okay, yeah, ARCADE it is, then.

Post by: magnum12 on February 22, 2007, 08:01:42 pm: I'm a little disappointed about TSC4 being cancelled. TMMC's final prototype structure was nearly finished with nearly 20 games availible from the get go. Oh well.

Post by: Shadow Jacky on February 22, 2007, 09:49:40 pm: magnum, that doesn`t mean its over. I`m still looking forward to it.

Post by: Rolken on February 23, 2007, 10:08:29 pm: None of the functionality intended for TSC4 is being aborted, it's just being brought out in a better way. The subsites are what I was referring to with the administrative tools blurb. I'm not going to throw away the work folks have put into their stuff.
