Re: Quest Database (sorry about that)
You know what would be nice?
If the quest Database got fixed before the new version of ZC 2.5 is released as stable to the public. I mean, what is the point if nobody can submit their new work to it with all the new features. People will be very confused and discouraged. I think a major thing to be fixed before 2.5 is released is getting the main site working correctly again.
Anyone think I'm wrong on this?
Re: Quest Database (sorry about that)
You are 100% right. But it still doesn't mean it will happen. I am hoping some staff member will take a little bit of time to do this. :(
Re: Quest Database (sorry about that)
I've loaded up the site a few times recently, actually. Quite frankly, there are too many bugs in the system for it to be viable. Every time I try to get to a quest, be it on the site or in the admin control panel, I'm getting the text "IN_PORTAL_AREA, THIS_SCRIPT or VB_AREA must be defined to continue". Believe me, I would LOVE to start uploading quests again, but I can't do that if the system is broken.
Does anyone else get that error right now when they try to go to a quest's page in the DB? Or am I just unlucky?
Re: Quest Database (sorry about that)
yeah I get that also since today the questdatabase is totally dead:(
Re: Quest Database (sorry about that)
I am getting the same error.
Re: Quest Database (sorry about that)
Maybe War Lord's repairing it or something?
Re: Quest Database (sorry about that)
Well how's this, buy out the doman of zeldaclassic.com from whoever has the rights, and remake the entire website utilizing all quests currently in the database and all information contained theirin. Makes no sense to repair a dying entity when you can just create a new one from scratch.
Re: Quest Database (sorry about that)
You know what I think the best thing to do would be? Just make PureZC the official ZC page. Change it to zc.com with a redirect from Pure, change the graphics to reflect the new "official" nature of it, and let the site continue to run as it has (same staff and all). It's functional, it's complete, and almost everyone who knows about it uses it anyway.
Simplest answer. I'm just throwing it out there.
Re: Quest Database (sorry about that)
Well, I would not personally like that. For some reason, however many times I try to register on PureZC, I never get the confirmation e-mail. So then I would be wiped off the Zelda Classic slate. Now, if there would be a way to merge the two sites, then it would be perfect.
But anyway, it appears someone is trying to patch the QDB. I checked out my quest's page a few days ago, like maybe 2 or 3, and it worked.
To an older member: Why are there two big ZC sites, anyway? How did PureZC come into existance?
Re: Quest Database (sorry about that)
PZC came into existence because of the lack of support and work being done on the official website... or at least i think thats why.
