    Should I add more games to the arcade? At some stage I'm going to look at importing the games from the old forum, but if you have any suggestions for games that can be added please visit http://www.ibparcade.com/ as that is where all the games come from that can be installed.
  2. I’m not sure about that. Considering the fact that even though I pre-registered his account, I only sent him his password this morning. I’m sure he’ll be on in when he picks up the email.
  3. Washing machines live longer with CALGON!

    Oh, it's still a year away, maybe longer. Unless of course we upgrade to a pre release version of Invision

    That's on the todo list, but don't expect it for quite some time. @ iProton - I decided not to install a rep mod, as the next version of Invision (which is in development now)will have rep built in.

    What's the point in that? It's either this skin or the default skin, and the default skin still has all the Invision branding on it.

    Forum Feedback?

    I’m always interested in getting feedback from members on the site/forum, and any suggestions for improvements. Since the new forum is now finished, what are your thoughts/first impressions? Do you see any areas that can be changed/improved? The website is currently being reworked and we hope to be able to re-launch it soon, however for the meantime, until the site is complete, a redirect will remain in place.
  11. OR keep the VC version for people with lower spec systems. SA is sucks when it comes to BTTF.
  12. Advanced Subs (IFT Investors) would get the models in a pre-release beta of 0.2f.
  13. What DK said. It will not be available to anyone until then.
  14. The models will be released in the next version of the mod, not before, sorry folks

  18. After a week of hard work, we are pleased to welcome you to the brand new Back To The Future: Hill Valley forums. We’ll get the bad news out of the way now, unfortunately we could not convert the database from the old forum to the new version of Invision Power Board, meaning we had to start from scratch, hence you will need to re-register your account. We do however want to stress that this move was the right decision to make, with the old forum (Invision 1.3.1) being last officially updated in 2004, and with supportability under MySQL5 and PHP5 patchy at best, it was in everyone’s best interests to switch to a more up-to-date version of the forum software. Here is the list of current modules that have been installed on the forum: IP Gallery IP Downloads IP Arcade IP Tracker - Bug reporting tool IP Shoutbox Ability to post Video Tags the same was as Image tags Group Title Permissions* Auto Warn Level Reduce v1.0.0 Dead Topic Protection 1.0.0 Pips & Team Icons v1.1* iFont (this has limitations however, not all colours are working at the moment)* Member Group Colour 2.1.2 (shows group member colour in topic view and profile)* Signature Permissions (allows us to disable a members signature)* * Feature does not apply to standard members/may only be available to admins/mods Member rankings are back, as before, they are based on a users post count, levels are below: 0 - Physicist 20 - Junior Time Traveler 50 - Quantum Physicist 88 - Time Traveler 100 - Docs Assistant 500 - Einstein 1000 - Jennifer Parker 1500 - Verne Brown 2000 - Jules Brown 2500 - Clara Brown 3000 - Marty McFly 5000 - Emmett "Doc" Brown We are also now pleased to offer subscription packages which will enable you to enhance your forum experience, more information on these packages can be found on the following link: http://www.bttfhillvalley.co.uk/forum/inde...view=getnewpost Example of using the new video tag code: Simply enter the link to the video you want to post using the [video][/video] tags For example, entering [video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AQyBpYd_8Zw[/video] would produce what is shown below. ">" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" wmode="transparent" width="425" height="350" />
  19. We are pleased to now be able to offer a subscription package to our members, we currently have a subscription package which will enable to you to gain access to extra forum features, and will give you access to competitions and pre-release betas of the next version of the mod. A run down of features in the package can be found below: IFT Investor: $3.75 Monthly * Can edit own topics title and description * Icon and/or coloured name * Can edit own member title * Can lock own topics * Group name: Advanced Subscriber * Private chat forum * Post Wrapper – Ability to set your preferred font/colour/size which is stored by the board * Can remove 'Edited By' line * Can PM Multiple recipients * Increased PM Storage - 500 messages * Bypass flood control * Regular competitions with varying prizes * Arcade - Unlimited games * Can change own display name For added convenience the package has the option of paying on a monthly or annual basis. It is important that we point out that this package is not mandatory, the standard member package, is, and always will be free of charge. This package is being offered as a way for members to enhance their forum experience, as well as helping contribute to the ongoing costs of running the site. A final thought to consider is that most/all of the features that are being offered in the package, have not been available to members under the old forum. Thanks for your understanding and support. The BTTF HV Team.
