Title: Thanks, and a question for Cmptrwz
Post by: TheJamsh on October 09, 2008, 03:48:22 PM
first of all, ill skip the major sucking up and just say thanks for expanding this whole thing a bit more.

question however, whats the main purpose of the wiki? i sort of looked around it and couldn't really make out what its purpose is. Haven't logged in for a few days and missed all this cropping up...

Well, it can bring back a quantity of what the old BZU had. That's what its for.

We need fish.xsi back up first and foremost.  Does anyone have a *complete* backup (even I have a partial one, not complete though)?

If it was on BZU when I shut the rest of the site down, I still have a copy.

Fish.xsi was NOT still on BZU at that time.

Edit: oh, right, original question.....

The wiki is to build the BZU site that, well, the community wants to build. Any information, of any kind you want, basically. Modding, mods, base game info, etc. and so forth.

Plus anything wikipedia says no to in regards to BZ/BZ2.

I would say we want to give detail on what the game is, perhaps detail information on what patch revisions did to game play, objectively point out concerns caused by said patches. We might also want to provide great detail on FE, since it was a community project. Perhaps avoid going into details with specific mods but provide details on modding capability (Details on classes such as shield towers, etc). I believe CmptrWz said he could add a Mod namespace if so asked.

Some pages are missing, but this is the closest we have to anything.

The missing Turret, Walker, and Scion Morphing tutorials that were on the site are all on Greenheart's site in the tutorials section, text only, but shouldnt be too hard to get it back to match the website background, text format, and otherwise.....

Scion Morphing (http://www.bzcommand.com/forum/index.php?page=26)
Walker Setup Info (http://www.bzcommand.com/forum/index.php?page=28)
