:This is minor to us but is bound to be misleading some newbies from time to time: the read-me's Contact info lists an old board address at mukade.bungie.org. At least, that's the case for the Rooftops OTA 1.1 pack. While I'm nitpicking, why is the Feature Highlights section, which explains what OTA actually does, at the very bottom? I imagine you'd want that and the Project Info section to be right up top before the Installation Instructions. Meh. Maybe something to correct before a 1.2 release, if there ever is one. --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 19:07, 24 August 2008 (CEST) | :This is minor to us but is bound to be misleading some newbies from time to time: the read-me's Contact info lists an old board address at mukade.bungie.org.

:The readme was authored during the release of 1.1 for PC, which occurred before the forum moves. Consistently updating the readmes with new links (OCF has moved twice since and might move one more time soon) would have been crazy. I documented the conversion rules for the old forum links [[OniGalore:Community_Portal#Oni Central Forum|HERE]]. Also, as the people become more aware of OniGalore, it is natural that the accurate contact information should be provided first and foremost here on the wiki, accessible through a quick search for OTA. --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 00:53, 25 August 2008 (CEST) | |||
:New releases should of course have accurate readmes. In that sense, the inaccurate information merely means that there hasn't been any consistent work on OTA in months and years - practically since Your_Mom discontinued his porting work. And I don't know if there are committed people ready to port OTA across levels today, but the next core from me (if any) will not be 1.2 (don't we already have that one?), but 2.0 or greater, taking in account the Dev Mode features and OniSplit-powered installation. --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 00:53, 25 August 2008 (CEST) | |||
:The stuff in the readme is listed in the order which naturally occurred to me at the moment of writing: people who download the arena typically couldn't care less about who we are and what we think is cool about the Arena - they're well aware of what it is supposed to look/feel like, and they just want to get it up and running. I might be wrong, but excessive humility on the part of the modder is really the last thing I'd complain about if I was an end-user. That stuff at the bottom? it's for salesmen! --[[User:Geyser|geyser]] 00:53, 25 August 2008 (CEST) | |||
