BIOCROSS PUBLIC BETA!!!
-
Really the only reason I use IF statements is to check for duplicates and also to check if the table is already created when patching as to not overwrite existing data but both are important checks…
I guess Biocross may not be considered a replacement for Ioncross then, only an alternative maybe it will be better to class Biocross as a tool for larger servers with a big player base, and little servers may benefit more from using Ioncross…
Either that or I spend another year coding Biocross-Lite
-
I am a little bit confused, why sqlite would not support IF statements (http://www.sqlite.org/lang_expr.html looks pretty good, even regexp is supported, which I normally use for such stuff) and the list of unsupported features http://www.sqlite.org/omitted.html does not mention in. Anyway, it’s your project, your time and thus your decisions
-
I understand why it may be an issue for some of the smaller servers, I just hope they can see past the initial minor annoyances.
Biocross was never originally going to be a full server operator, it was going to be more about the Search and organisation feature, which is no doubt the defining feature of Biocross…
My idea is to release Biocross-Lite which is basically IFSO and it will use SQLite - hopefully the additional features in the normal version such as Player Templates, Easy MP Startup creator and the Admin Notes feature will tempt users to opt for SQL Server…
-
**Hopefully this is a fully working version, fixed several bugs, added real names to factions, added a check box to enable/disable the number prefix
-
Some people had problems with the zip file, I had compressed it using Deflate64 - the new format will now open with Windows’ built in zip viewer and extraction utility, if you were having difficulties before please try the new zip file.
Thank You

Hey rsabatino:
1. What exactly happens when you get to the test connection page
2. you didn’t have to apply ALL the patches, just the latest one (1020), perhaps I will remove the old ones to avoid confusion
3.Perhaps if you could a more detailed description or a screenshotThank you for your time
if it says test connection failed, you have input the wrong details for your SQL Server or it is setup incorrectly, check out my FLForge page for the Biocross Manual: http://forge.the-starport.net/gf/download/frsrelease/136/153/BiocrossUserManual.pdf
Another problem may be you didn’t apply Patch 1020 which is available now from the Forge page which fixes errors with SQL Server 2005
Good Luck

Released a MINI installer on forge for those who are having trouble with the .NET Framework portion of the install or those who are confident they already have the right version…

Patch 1021 will be out soon, which fixes some bugs me and Lancer Solarus have been identifying and increases compatability with his data generator…
