1. Restored Forum Backup - William - 24-06-2019
The forum has suffered something bad and unfixable so had to revert back to a previous update, only the latest posts are gone and the history on the board remains.
Signatures, posting, topics etc all works now.

I love that most of the boards have the last post from about 2013 :lol:
Re: 1. Restored Forum Backup - William - 24-06-2019
Yeah, Im not very good at remembering to make backups
And this old forum has a tendency to keep crashing every year or so xD But I will try to make sure more backups are made ^^ Especially now since Ive began working on Mirage again:viewtopic.php?f=222&t=13586

Are there problems with login? I keep getting logged out.
Cool to see all of the old posts! Pretty cringe worthy on my part, but I do remember having a lot of fun learning about programming and stuff!
(Also, are we allowed onto the Discord?)
Re: 1. Restored Forum Backup - William - 24-06-2019
It's the same for everybody, the forum does not remember logins, so you always have to relogin back. Have not looked for a solution to this but maybe I should.
The discord should be up and running, does it not allow you to login?

Clicking "remember me" seems to have worked. No problems with login now.
I've tried discord a couple of times, accepted the invite, I'll be able to send a message, but next time I load up the app, the server is no longer available and I have to reclick the link.
Wasn't sure if it was technical difficulties somewhere, or y'all just really didn't want me, lol.

I added a new URL now:

Maybe the old one was a temporary invite. Please let me know if you still have the same issue.
Re: 1. Restored Forum Backup - Pbcrazy - 24-06-2019
Looks like that did it! Woohoo.
I have such strong feelings of nostalgia with this place... Also makes me feel a bit old.
Re: 1. Restored Forum Backup - William - 24-06-2019
Hehe, same here. I never thought I would work in VB6 ever again. But I started again with my game, I thought why not when I still think its fun and it works on all windows versions.
Re: 1. Restored Forum Backup - Pbcrazy - 24-06-2019
I hadn't messed with it any more, I'd just assumed that it wouldn't work. Have you had any issues getting it to run, either the IDE or the produced programs?
Re: 1. Restored Forum Backup - William - 24-06-2019
Nope no issues, Microsoft did good with the compatability. I just installed vb6 on my win10 computer and started working
I also installed it on my server computer win7 and it worked as well.
Re: 1. Restored Forum Backup - Pbcrazy - 24-06-2019
Well, now this is very tempting, for old times sake...
Re: 1. Restored Forum Backup - William - 24-06-2019
Do it
Would love to have someone to post with here and share work
Re: 1. Restored Forum Backup - Pbcrazy - 24-06-2019
Oh no, I think I just threw away my hard copy of VB6 when I moved a year ago. O.o I'll have to look when I get home today.
Re: 1. Restored Forum Backup - William - 24-06-2019
I have you covered on that
