Soldat Mappers League - Bring in the Guests

[SoulSnipa]

New News of April 01, 2007

Ok I've added those CAPTCHA images or whatever they are called to allow guests to once again post comments on maps and on the shoutbox without registering.  Although I never thought that registering took that long anyway...but some people would rather not I guess.


New News of January 22, 2007

Well I happened to notice how much spam this page has gotten. I got bored today and decided to fix a few things. Not too many noticable changes but hopefully the spam and changes in map information should come to a halt (hopefully). On that note, members look toward the new poll, I need your input if I should delete all the maps on this page with incorrect information. If I get a decent amount of votes for yes, that means those who want to keep their maps, makes sure to update at least the map name. I also changed it so guests can no longer comment on different maps (its really not that hard to sign up). I could be a little rusty so if something doesnt work right make sure to give me a shout. Thanks, and a big shout to those who still use the page. Thanks for the support!

I've also gone through and deleted most, if not all, of the texas hold em, free porn, etc. spam comments.

New News of July 07, 2006:

Just wondering if there was anyone out there willing to provide some simple webpage support, such as:

Fixing PHP Errors
Fixing Opera/Firefox Layout Bugs
Running Map Contests
Adding a Few Features
General Webpage management

Anyone interested let me know, I just dont have the time anymore to committ myself to SML any longer.

Just post in SML forums and/or shoutbox and we shall chat. Thanks for any help.

Although I've lost just about all my interest in further development, SML is back up for the communities use.  I will edit the forum post **** however, eventually so you can use SML for your advantage.

New News of March 19, 2006:
After finally conquering the layout differences...(almost perfect) I have made some more layout preferences and more updates to SML page.  There is also a more in depth file manager where you can delete and manage your own files, with a cap space.  The layout preferences, however not done yet allows you to enter a few hex codes and the entire page changes. Right now its almost finished and you can see it here:

Just scroll down to layout preferences and change the background color to a hex of your choice without the '#' at the beginning.

New News of February 24, 2006:

The webpage has come a long way as many of you know since I first updated this.  All the uploaders work, however I forgot about making a universal uploader.  Ill start working on that .

My main concern is showing you my new layout feature which you can change just about every part of the layout based on where the sidebars "windows" are placed. It works best in IE, however I havent started to work on it in firefox.









Basically you need to create an account, go to the Edit profile page. Then you can use the "windows" buttons to customize your layout.  Your closed windows appear at the bottom, while minimized will keep the window in place but it will not load the content.  This will make the webpage load faster for those who do not want to load bmp overviews of random maps and grafix.

New layout and functions in this new version of SML webpage. Its back!


http://sml.u13.net

Of course I need to do the basics so some of the sites doesnt have the features I want yet. But be patient. Soon the site will be fully functional once more.

Uploaders are now built for efficiency.  Remember filling out 20 million things, now im reducing it to a lot less.

Universal Uploader: (pending)

Scenery/Texture Uploader: http://sml.u13.net/index.php?p=graphics


File Uploader: http://sml.u13.net/index.php?p=files

I was just browsing the SML site for the first time in a while, and holy crap it just has so much functionality to it.  You've really come a long way and I must say that this is probably the most underestimated and underappreciated/underused soldat related site on the web.  I strongly encourage all soldat players, server owners, and especially map owners to go check it out and participate.

any way nice site it realy has its stuff for maps and rating system and opther stuff

hope mine could be like your in near future

[CardBoardWarrior]

So is this basically a site where mappers can upload entire map packs/everything needed and others can go and download 'em? Sounds nice.

What do you mean about crashes?

[FliesLikeABrick]

if you're talking about the server being offline, that is my fault (same as the soldat forums when they go down)

[jrgp]

I used to use this servace ALOT but since the server started going down I started using my file server and imageshack.

But if flies sais sml will be more reliable this time I guess I can start using t again.

[SoulSnipa]

[Doc]

new news

[FliesLikeABrick]

If you're active again, I really think you should take some time to make SML work in other browsers as well as you've made it work in IE.  I have logs to show that more than half of the community uses firefox, about 15% uses opera, and about 36% or less uses IE.

your latest map was even named rce_firefox

What kind of spam were you talking about, member spam or spambots trolling the site?  If the latter, I've got some techniques for blocking it that don't require CAPTCHAs or human-only questions.  That is what I use on u13.net for the shoutbox and on here for registrations

[SoulSnipa]

I'm not necessarily active but i did want to get rid of the SPAM-Bots. I no longer use IE myself, I now use Opera, and the site looks about 95% just as good as it did in IE.

Date Posted: January 22, 2007, 06:58:25 PMOk site is now updated once again. BUMP for news.
