Chris

Shane I was planning on getting a professional to do it. I have a feeling you're a bit of a newbie to IPB.... a little birdie tells me you thought it was possible to run SQL queries in the language file. roffel.

I love watching people do this, I'm interested in the videos you guys will capture so be sure to post them here if either of you get one done.

I can afford a custom skin. First I need Dennis to help me with the layout of the main site, then once that's finished I'll get a professional IPB skinner to create a skin based on the main sites layout.

Interesting conversation. Spaz I agree that you will/would be an excellent father, somewhat of a role model for others who some day want to become a father. Like myself for example, I always said I'd never have kids since I was about 12. I always expressed my opinion that it is too hard and with statistics in the UK of a massive 50% of all couples splitting up and causing kids distress, it just didn't seem the correct thing to do, as I wouln't wanna put kids (if they were young at the time) through that. That's when I realised I was always looking at the subject with a negative perspective. I never thought about if it worked out well. What if was with a women I truly loved. What if we had kids. What if it was a happy, loving relationship. I never thought about it that way. I've never been in a serious relationship myself, and at the moment I don't particularly want one. Although I do want one in the future though, perhaps when I've grown out of my computer-kid-shell, which severely inhibits my social life. Regrettably. Living with an addiction to computers is kinda lame when it comes down to social stuff. But anyway, that's all I have to say for now. Perhaps I'll say something more another time.

OMG I have no money either, weird. I'll check whats up with that. Oh and BTW you won't get any money for posting at the moment, it's not a bug it's just not implemented yet. EDIT: I checked the database and we all still have our money, but for some reason it's not being shown in the store :S

Listen up everyone! djbob2, the man who has taken over the upgrading of IBStore to work on Invision forums 2.1, has released an Alpha version of IBstore. This version is obviously VERY BUGGY. It's of course not even in Beta stage yet, let alone ready for final release. So basically the store is functional. But please go through as much as you can and try to do lots of things (if you're knowledgable try to exploit stuff) and if you find: Any errors Any bugs Any typos Report them here in this post and I'll refer them back to djbob over at Invisionize so he can fix them. Why is this important I here you ask? Well, don't ask silly questions. The sooner we get all the bugs fixed, the sooner we have a final release, and as soon as we have that I will be making us a Gangs System again! Go to the Store now.... i'll add a link in the header soon for you guys.

Been too busy. I'll update it now.

Spaz when you're viewing a topic click on Options and make sure topic view is set to Standard. I think you might have it on Outline.

Just a round-up of the past weeks news in multiplayer San Andreas. I had a rather busy week just gone so haven't been able to update much. First of all Multi Theft Auto. The team recently celebrated their 3rd birthday, not long after ours. On foot synchronisation is coming along well, they say swimming, shooting and getting in and out of cars is now all synced too. In the highly anticipated Deathmatch mode we should see a similar kind of maps system as we currently have in Race mode. A new feature to Deathmatch will be player respawning, so you no longer have to wait for everyone else to finish before you can play again. Passengers in cars will be available as it was in MTAVC. You can read in more detail about any of these improvements on the MTA Blog. There's not as much news about SA-MP but they did release some video footage of what they have so far, you can watch these over at the SA-MP website.

What topics did you allegedly bump? And I recognise your name from somwhere.... are you a modder or have you submitted POTD's?

It's ok because that site does cover its ass by saying you should remove them after 24 hours. I was going to remove it but see no point seeing as the website makes itself look legal.

Good luck with your site. Perhaps if you mentioned your budget, how much you were willing to pay people for how much they did, you may get a better response. Oh BTW, it wasn't Xenon who donated the domain, it was me really, I own it Anyway, seeing as I'm posting here I may as well do a little bit of shameless self-promotion... I can code all sorts of things in PHP. If I had time I'd update my portfolio on chrisphillips.co.uk with all the shit I'm able to do. Currently I'm juggling 3 sites though so I'm kinda busy. Let me know if you need anything done though, I'll give you a quote and timeframe for getting it done. I know that you can't get away without paying me as well since I host you so I can terminate your account at anytime hehe

In IPB you can have a primary and a secondary member group.

I don't think you have, it looks to me like you've opened that it paint and resized it and saved all the whitespace around it, it's still the same size.

Not on this particular forum if I remember correctly, it's when we had the old IPB before the hacking. Spaz and insane_pyro used to constantly spam along with PaganGuru and thisisausername. We banned paganguru and he never came back, insane pyro tried to a few times but then moved to another site's forums, thisisausername disappeared off the face of the earth one day, but Spaz kept on registering loads of accounts and trying to get back. It just shows me when people do that how much they <3 me and my site MGILB must fucking love me the amount of times he's tried to get back here

If you read the rules then how come you are still breaking them with your oversized signature? Sort it out.

You seem to in some kind of semi-dellusional state. If someone says something to you, you have to fight back? What's wrong with losing, you can't win everything. Admittedly you can't win against us [staff] but that's different. I'm pretty sure I already gave you a second warning and we banned you again but I can't remember, but anyway if you disrupt the place again you are never coming back.

Just had an email from Rockstar about a cool Liberty City Stories contest where you can win a nice lot of goodies. Here's the excerpt from that email. The contest is unfortunately only open to US residents aged 18 or older, the competition ends February 28th. Good luck everyone who is eligible to enter!

The British Broadcasting Corporation (better known as the BBC) have selected the Grand Theft Auto series to appear on their shortlist of 25 British-designed things. Grand Theft Auto is certainly my favourite, unlike Lara Croft - The world's most poorly designed videogame female protagonist, don't vote for that all-action penis magnet, God knows how she got on the shortlist, vote for GTA. Vote here by clicking the GTA option and pressing "vote" at the bottom, for GTA's page on the site go here to see what the BBC said about it. Hopefully with enough support from the fans we will make it go through to the next stage of voting. Also on a sidenote whilst the subject is British design. We should be unveiling our new layout this month. Stay tuned for more updates!

Switch I know you like the whole fantasy genre but can't you make some real life mods? I would like that if you did

Lol I never realised a store meant this much to people

Thanks, you just have to put the .bmp in the skins folder which is usually something like C:\program files\rockstar games\vice city\skins

With the mood not too pleasant at the moment, with the death of Chris Penn, the suing of Rockstar Games (again), and Take Two's plummeting share prices and resignations of employees. I thought it would be a good time to take a break from that and post about something else. It's been a good couple of months since I last added any of JVT's mods, I've been busy with other websites and projects like PS3User, but I've added all his new ones, and there's quite a lot of variations so I'll simply list them all below.

Good news everybody. IBStore has been taken over by a new coder who is upgrading it to work on IPB2.1 which is great. This also means all your stuff (items,money etc.) will be still the same as they were before the upgrade (although we are considering restarting). But it also means I won't have to do as much modifying the gangs system. So probably in a few weeks time we'll have a store back finally

BUMP. We didnt do a lot did we, hopefully during February we'll get more of this done.
