it isn't out yet, but there is a decent following behind it! (~10k people signed up for alpha testing alone, ~1000 people in the Discord chat)
"I think to revitalize the site, TH has to move forward with newer things." - I read that and was just nodding my head.
Maybe we could get together everyone who replies to this thread, and jump in a Discord or chat sometime and brainstorm?
It'd be interesting also to survey what people are up...
Hey guys! Some of you might have heard of Legion TD, a Wc3 map I made back in 2009. It's now the most popular map on BattleNet. It's also known as Squadron TD on Sc2.
TheHelper is where I learned how to make games and it means a lot to me that these forums are still up and running.
For the...
Got it. I'm a few hours into installation/setup, and it's going reasonably well.
Is it possible to specify an HTML page for the index.php, rather than displaying a Xenforo page?
For example, could you, in theory, make http://thehelper.net point to an HTML page without changing the URL...
Cool, I'll shoot you a message when things are slightly further along. I'm really impressed with the variety of configuration options in the Admin CP so far.
For integrating user accounts with something like Wordpress (so that people can comment on a blog using their forum account), I'm...
I bought Skyrim for $5. Never played anything like it--I've always been an online, competitive gamer. It's quite a different experience. It almost feels like how I feel when I read a really good fantasy novel in how it feels like an escape into another world. As opposed to Dota/League of Legends...
Awesome--thanks for your advice. I just purchased a license. It sounds like most of the cons had to do with switching, rather than starting from scratch as I am.
Definitely fun posting here again! TH is literally what got me into online communities and I actually lurk pretty regularly. I'll try...
Hey guys,
I'm looking into launching a forum for an upcoming game with my company.
In the past, I've had experience with vBulletin, but I noticed TheHelper switched over to Xenforo.
After reading into things, I'm heavily leaning toward Xenforo, but I'm a little hesitant since I haven't...
This is a sweet tutorial. I'm wanting to come up with a logo for my game, so it's not quite as crazy as band art, but still I think the same techniques work. Thanks dude!
Wow that really was a huge improvement.
Safe to say if the site used the old layout, I probably would have taken a look and left without a second thought of registering.
Wow, all these names ring nostalgia bells. But I can't remember for the life of me, any bit of these events. All I can remember is the Warcraft (and how awesome it was, how the WEHZ felt more responsive than a chat room). Maybe I thought everyone was just joking, or I was otherwise too naive to...
