To-do list for the site
Bumped again for my own purposes: there’s a few things left undone here.
[image:98:r:s=0:l=x]
This is mostly for my benefit, O Reader, as my memory is not what it once was (not that it was ever amounted to much to begin with) and a list of bases to cover will be highly beneficial at this stage of Aiera’s re-development. A lot of the projects have advanced in their development arcs since the last update to the site, and I need to update the site files to reflect that.
So, at a glance, here’s what needs to get done:
Finish restoring old file categories and content– DONE!Update the files for Akalabeth Mobile– DONE!Update files for Lazarus to v1.2. See if it’s possible to upload the mod in one chunk instead of 7 RAR segments– DONE!Get local copies of Milestone 1 and Milestone 2 of Archon online– DONE!Nodling Dragon’s website seems to have a number of useful downloads and utilities; get these onto Aiera if they are not already– DONE!ZIO Interactive’s UW1 for PocketPC seems to have a downloadable demo now; get this– FALSE ALARM!Make sure the latest version of Exult is available for download– DONE!Check to make sure that I have the latest downloadable files for UW2 Revival on the site– DONE!Get the Eriadain files back online– DONE!Make sure I have the latest files for LOW– DONE!Make sure I have the latest files for SI French– DONE!Get the latest downloads for Pentagram, especially now that they have a Mac OS X Universal binary– DONE!Get the latest Project Britannia files– DONE!Make sure I have the latest version of EUO– DONE!Arx Fatalis seems to have a fair bit of downloadable media; see about getting hold of this– DONE!Get the latest version of U6O– DONE!Make sure I have the latest version of U4 Multiplayer– DONE!
That ought to keep my busy until the end of the week.
As I said, this is mostly for my benefit. However, O Reader, you are certainly welcome to look over the above list and take notice of anything in it which strikes you as being “news”; perhaps you, like myself, haven’t got the latest version of something yet. You can still make use of the old version of the site to find links to projects if they haven’t yet been ported to this new version of the site…go and do a little exploring!
Update: I thought of more to do:
Investigate the various Ultima Online mods and remakes (Legacy, Iris, etc.)– DONE!- Check out the UO for NWN module
Investigate the Lands of Ultima hak paks on the NWVault– NOT WORTH THE EFFORT!- Investigate the UO Britannia map module on the NWVault
These are somewhat longer-term goals, and the immediate goals of getting Aiera back up to the level of its previous iteration remains the priority. But I think it would be neat to expand the site a bit, and these seem good avenues to approach to do that with.
Upper-date:
Download Dark Core “offline” versions.– DONE!Update IRE files (Sourceforge seems to be having issues at the moment) to version 0.93– DONE!Get Nazghul 0.5.5 and Haxima’s latest files– DONE!BGKeyring for Exult– DONE!Enhanced Graphics Mod for Lazarus– DONE!Looking Up camera Mod for Lazarus– DONE!Grail Quest’s Mods for Lazarus– DONE!Bugfix & Mod collection for Lazarus– DONE!- Get newest Dransik installers
- Check all links!
- Check for updates to the utilities!
Identify dead projects– DONE!- Add Lost Sosaria again
Do you plan to upload mods such as BGKeyring and SIFixes for Exult or Enhanced Graphics Mod, Looking Up camera Mod, Grail Quest’s Mods and
Bugfix & Mod collection for Lazarus?
SI Fixes is already on the site.
Some of the others are not, and yes, I will be adding them as well. Thanks for the small list of stuff; I see I have work to do!
Thankie a lot for putting back the Eriadain files online ! I’ve been looking for them after a crash. I felt back like toying with them again.
No problem, Moa.
I’ve tested the files and have local backups, so if anything doesn’t work for you let me know and I’ll re-upload.
Also, apologies if downloads from the site are slow; I’m still uploading lots of files, so this should be expected to cause some lag.
Great. In this “Internet time” it’s important to keep all goodies safe. I have several Ultima webpage bookmarks in my firefox that no longer leads nowhere, since the websites are dead like Origin Museum and Ultima RPGDot. Actually I always download and put the stuff to safe in my external HDD since Ultima fans are getting fewer and fewer everyday.
Great job, keep it up mate.
Dino and I might benefit from a glance at your archives, Ergon. I’m sure it contains some gems.
And in turn, thank you.
Here’s filelist of all my Ultima stuff. I have no problem of sharing all of it, it’s just that I got very slow upload (1M) and there is 1,5GB stuff there. Though 1GB of them is videos; RG interviews, Origin ads, Ultima intro videos etc.
