The Server never crashed. We just ran out of Bandwith.

The Paymethod is not choosed yet, because it will need lots of Organisation and we have to look first how the Preset System will worked, cause that is not done yet. So please dont ask how to pay, its not decidet yet.
For the safety of the Prests, no, if someone stole your Texrures, we only can tell them to not use them, but other than that, we cant do anything about it.
Well, you all know now Server Prests are expensive for the Server. But you would pay just arround 3 - 4 Bucks.
Presetfiles will be able to get saved from stealing Textures.
Paymentsystem and Preset System for the Server is not been decidet / done.
So for now, the Thread gets closed until we have further Information. Please dont open new Threads regarding the Presetsystem and/or payment of them, nor how the Files will been saved. Those Threads will get locked.

« on: January 11, 2011, 11:04:06 am »i was just poking around (nice site C:), and saw this thread, and well, I want to make a suggestion that could solve the preset problems of taking up server space, and users being able to see other's presets.
Since FH uses ogre, you could use Flash in conjunction with Hikari library to render the textures onto each character. With this method, you can have the user upload their textures onto some image hosting site or somewhere on the internet, and feed the image URLs into the game, where the user's client, on request, will download the textures from the urls provided. It's the method I use for my own game. That way, you don't have presets eating away at server space, and presets are visible to everyone. I have code and an example (again, my game xD) that shows that this method actually works. c: I don't know if using Flash is exactly uhh... memory efficient, but it might be worth a shot.
I hope my explanation wasn't too confusing :'D
But those Pictures then are in the Folders of Cache, means everyone could theoretically get the Textures and use them as own. Plus you cant use own Material Files which would mean no Transparent Textures, no Moving Textures and so on :/ And that also means one Texture is shown on both sides on the Preset, so the character cant have a different Marking on the right site of the Body than on the left. This is what Kov wants to avoid, to smite Users possibilities in being creative.
And i dun want to Imagine what the Internet-Connection says when the Screeen is full of Presets where the Comp first needs to download them. Not everyones Computer is strong or has a fast connection o____o

« on: January 10, 2011, 08:55:01 pm »Well the person(s) who told me such KNOW my character well and she can NOT anywhere NEAR be created within the character creator. Also I know a preset when I see one vs character creator characters.
Nala told me to code my preset a special way and well. It worked for me apparently. So whether or not it was a glitch or freak luck I don't know.
But whatever. Nothing can be done I guess. At least we can have presets.
Pardon my rudeness.

Nah, its okay. I would prefer free Prests too, but its simply not possible without paying much more money to the Server.

Presets are Characters with custom textures. Like those:
FeralHeart wount cost money to play.

The Presets are in first place ment to be shared under each other. It was wanted that users create own Downloads of their Presets so others can decide if they want to see them or not.

Presets are not ingame to show them off, they are in first place for you own fun and artistic creations. To share them with friends is also just an Option, a Privilege. They are not ment to be basicly visible to everyone, due to the first edited Post in that Thread, you can read why.
@ Juvi
Kov decidet to only provide 10 Presets, since he didnt wanted to give the Game with lots of empty Folders. I have mentioned to him 30, but he didnt wanted that.
@ Moonshade
Only if you want your own Preset to be on the Server, that costs. You dont have to pay to see other ones Presets.

Holy.. i needet to edit my Post, we already have 4500+ Users, x,x
And yes, you have 10 Presetfolders to fill, but they are secondary for your own personal use. At the Beginning, Kov even didnt wanted to make Presets possible. I am happy to have that Option anways. I will only send my Friends the Files, because they are the only ones i play with, lol.
