OTfans Version 5 is Here
posted by DeathfireD Category: (Web Sites)
Friday OTfan's launched their 5th redesign of the forum. This update not only gives the site a much needed face lift but it also puts the home page to good use by publishing popular tutorials.
Here's a quote from GriZzm0 Link here.
Today we've launched OTFans version 5. This version update includes vBulletin 4 with a lot of new features and a new theme. Sadly we lost parts of the update in a hard drive crash and had to rush it. But don't worry, we'll tweak the site from time to time until we are there.
The homepage is currently a bit empty but will be filled up with tutorials and articles. If a tutorial in the tutorial section is good enough it will get promoted to an article and posted on the front page. Blogs will also be enabled for server owners or perhaps even everybody in the near future.
The hosted forums tab will be back soon enough and perhaps even the wiki in the future, but not right now.
We hope you like the new theme. If not, give us feedback on how to improve it.
Kind regards, the OTFans.net Staff.

posted by DeathfireD Category: (Clients)
The YATC team has released version 0.3.2 of YATC. This version brings many changes, the most notable being the new light system that Adelae contributed. Khaos confesses in his thread he's been lazy these past 8 months but thanks to the motivation and hard work from nfries88, Ormin, Kilouco, FightingElf, Thomac and especially Adelae this version was released.

Tibia 6.4 Old School Server
posted by DeathfireD Category: (Distros)
Jopirop has embarked on a retro journey to creation a 6.4 Tibia server from scratch. Yes you heard me right, 6.4 from scratch. So far he's got the basic functionality done (ie. logging in, chatting, fighting monsters) and has released a video of his progress (see thread link). You can find his original thread located here http://otfans.net/showthread.php?t=162717 .
For those of you that remember using Tibia's 6.4 client this will surly bring back some fond yet disturbing memory's. For those that haven't used 6.4, well I'm sure it will give you a glimpse into Tibia's past.
Freeing Tibia! Call to all spriters!

For years we've had OTServ, which has become a suitable free software replacement for the official Tibia servers.
Now YATC has also become a suitable free software replacement for the official Tibia client.
Now, all that we need to be able to make a completely free software Tibia is probably the most important part - graphics!

OTserv News Server Upgrade Complete
posted by DeathfireD Category: (Web Sites)
It's been 2 weeks since I tweeted that the site would be down due to upgrades but it wasn't till today that I actually got to make the server live haha. In any case OTserv News and all sites hosted on ordway.ath.cx are rocking out on a much faster server then the one I've been using since 1999. With that said the site should load much faster. Expect to see some more news being posted, possibly some site changes, and maybe even some new features.
