AGI Developer Site

[Nick Sonneveld]

ok, I've asked Ian Cumming, the server admin about the site being down on Sunday:

we are currently running the server on backup hardware, which isn't
actually terribly stable. The new parts for our _real_ server are
arriving this week, so the changeover will occur during the easter break
- in which case the stability problems should be fixed.

They should start fixing up the server around the end of next week.   Which is good.

A couple of questions:

1) Does anybody have any suggestions for things to add to the site?  Should I have a few example fan games to show people what's possible with agi?

Any ideas for tutorials?  utils?  links?

2) Advertising... the plan was to entice more people to agi.. should I start pluggin now or wait until we have a nice new logic syntax first?  Does the site have enough information to help people start creating their own games?

3) Has the server problems put people off?  They should be fixed soon.

4) comments?.. anything.. I'm interested.

You could add ending screenshots from fan games like Uri Quest, F**k quest, Naturette, residence 44 quest, etc...

Yes, you could include a couple of games (along with your interpreter) so that visitors could easily try them and see what it

[Nick Sonneveld]

Robin: I think ending screenshots would be suitable for the NAGI page.  Eventually I'll merge the NAGI and AGI Dev Sites together because of space on the NAGI site.. but it's fine at the moment.

Besides... the less recognition FQuest gets.. the better

Eidolon: I glad it's easy to navigate.  I also wanted it to look "kinda" good.

I'll add some choice games then when I get back home and start writing up a memory management guide.

because of space on the NAGI site

Well if you would like I can donate some of my new server space for you to use and set up an ftp so you can upload to it. Don't worry I have plenty of space 200mb

[Nick Sonneveld]

thanks.. I'm alright really..

I was talking about the space on my dingoblue server.. I've got plenty on the new one.. that's why I was going to merge them together.

Hi!

I've finally got around to adding NAGI to the agidev site!  All pages that link to NAGI's old site will get redirected to the new one.  Nothing much has changed with NAGI's site contents except the new layout.

Which brings me to the new layout for agdev.  I haven't changed much, but I couldn't display links to all the pages on one screen without it looking messy so I split it up a bit.  If you have a look, you'll see what I mean.

I hope the new look is alright with everybody.  If something's broken.. please let me know.

Nice job Nick, I like the new look better, with AOL the links would sometimes get cought behind the agidev picture unless I made the MDI child window full screened. I like the way it looks now much better.
