The website
Well, right now it's at http://galen.d2dc.net/twilight/ if you want to
have a look.
The structure is just about complete. I will be making a few more
changes to it, but pending a better title image and a few PHP changes
that the end user will not see, this is it. Beyond that, I'll be
putting it on the SF servers and writing a new webpulse script to use
them.
Pages are very simple to create, here's the structure of the news page:
<?php
$page = "News";
require ("include/header.php");
// place content here
require ("include/footer.php");
?>
Content for this page at the moment are a pair of titlebox() calls for
the "news" and a box() for the SF and OpenGL links at the bottom. Very
simple, the rest of the website will go very quickly. I may change the
nav color though, I don't like it being the same as the titlebox title
color. I'll toss some stub pages in the mix so we can get down to the
coding for this monster.
If you like what's there, say so. If you don't, say so. With all the
major pieces in place, this is what it's going to look like. Try it
both with ?use_css=no and ?use_css=yes - Netscape 4 will get the non-CSS
version by default because I don't know if it works sanely or not. I
need to know these things.
The code: id-source
If you've checked, the id-source directory is massively uninteresting,
really just Id's stuff sans a few files that shouldn't have been there
really. That tree is there for reference purposes only and not intended
to be messed with at all. It's just nice to have around, that's all.
The code: twilight
I'll be having the SF guys import a slightly modified tree in the next
couple of days. So far, I'm the only one who has really worked on it,
but that's not surprising since it started as a private project. IIRC,
Mercury wants to make a number of bugfix type changes to bring it up to
at least the level of other source ports.
I believe zinx said he was interested in doing autoconf/automake. We
need that ASAP, so if he gets too busy I'll probably do it.
We despirately need someone to do the win32 stuff as well. There will
be some code editing involved since there were a number of things that
were pulled out. If possible, I'd like to see LordHavoc do that since
he happens to know what exactly I ripped out as he's done similar in the
past himself.
My other project is the Cvar changes. These are highly invasive, rather
messy, and are one of those things that have to be done by the person
who is going to do them and committed when nobody else has major
outstanding changes. Fortunately, this is the only major far-reaching
change I've got in mind right now and it doesn't really affect people
working on auto* or win32.
Anything that anyone else has in mind short-term, please say so. I'd
really like to make sure there's a record here of what's going on for
posterity, if possible.
