The biggest Dark Forces site just got even bigger...
Posted by Fenwar on Tuesday, December 11, 2001 - 14:20 (EST)

Yes, the new webspace has been purchased!

The DF-21 Demos have moved out of their shed into a new, permanent home at http://df-21.org/demos/...!

You'll notice variou..s other bits of the site moving to this new location, usual DF-21 schedules applying.


Where Were You When...?
Posted by Fenwar on Wednesday, December 12, 2001 - 17:18 (EST)

The lengthy DF-21 News Archive has now been broken down by month, as it was a bit big. If you fancy a stroll down memory lane, head for /news.


FTP Archives On The Move...
Posted by Fenwar on Monday, December 17, 2001 - 14:29 (EST)

All the components, patches etc. have now moved! The paths and filenames remain identical; the only difference is .org instead of .net. All the links in the Files section should be updated; let me know if you spot any that aren't.

The missions will probably move next weekend.

NB: if you've got a DF site that links directly to any files, you'll need to update your links as soon as possible, or they'll become broken.


Hall of Fame Poll - Round 6
Posted by Fenwar on Saturday, December 22, 2001 - 8:11 (EST)

Not content with scaring you all witless ;) , JorBo has also chosen this moment to unleash round 6 of the Hall of Fame vote on you all...

The levels this time are:

  • Beyond Glory 2: In Dying Light
  • The Dark Tide II: Nightfall
  • Discovery at Ironfort
  • Operation Archangel 2: The Dungeons of Gammora


Voting will close on 2nd January. So, what are you waiting for? VOTE NOW!


New Patch & Updated FME Pack
Posted by Fenwar on Sunday, December 23, 2001 - 6:30 (EST)

Casey "xwing_original" Neumiller has uploaded a Blaster Bolt Patch which makes the original a little prettier (Files/Misc).

Chris "Dreamland" Landrum has updated Pic the FraMEs 4 to include a swoop bike without the exhaust jets (Files/FME).


FTP Moving (Almost) Complete
Posted by Fenwar on Wednesday, December 26, 2001 - 21:51 (EST)

The missions are now all over at df-21.org, and hopefully, all the links should point there too. If anything doesn't work, mail me straight away!

The missions won't be deleted from this server until January, but if you're linking to them, please change your links now.


Review Site Opens!
Posted by Fenwar on Friday, December 28, 2001 - 19:12 (EST)

A new section of DF-21 dedicated to level reviews can now be found at reviews.df-21.org!

The new Level Reviews forum will be the focus of activity for expanding this section. If you've written any reviews you'd like to see hosted here, mail me for more info.


As you may have noticed, for ease of linking, all sections on DF-21.org now have their own subdomain- for example, demos.df-21.org. (See the df-21.org index page for more).


New Chatrooms!
Posted by Fenwar on Saturday, December 29, 2001 - 15:51 (EST)

We now have our very own chatrooms at chat.df-21.org

You'll need to register, but then you can visit one of three chatrooms- General (for anything), FreeForAll (the AHHH! Chatroom) and Technical (for DF and general technical discussions).

You can also create your own rooms, and there are a gazillion other features I'll leave it to you to discover.

Enjoy!
