For some reason I have the Songbird Twitter set as the main site that is my bad.

Iron Soldier 3 order page is up. 5 dollars off the price if you order before January 22. This is going to be an important date because it is going to tell Songbird how many people are serious about getting this game. If anything this is a going to be a major collectors item 20 years from now for sure as it is now you cannot go wrong ordering Iron Soldier 3 for NUON here:

You beat me to it! :) Thank you so much to all the NUON fans who have rallied behind this release; glad it can get a proper reprint after all these years.

Email sent to all users who ever posted in this forum.

You are getting this email because you have posted in the NUON Dome forum at some point in the past and since we were the official NUON forum for a time you are one of the few, the proud, the people that know about NUON. If you know about NUON, then you have to know about Iron Soldier 3 which is one of the best games for the NUON and it is finally getting an official release all these years later at the crazy price of 54.99 if you order before Jan 22, 2021 and 59.99 after that until March 2012.

This is going to be a very limited Re-release so if you want one you need to get your order in at the following link before March 2021. Like I said limited release. The fact that this title has ever been Re-released is a miracle.

https://songbird-productions.com/product/is3-nuon/

The NUON platform is one of the most obscure retro games systems out there and Iron Soldier 3 is the most rare commercial game for it. Even if you do not ever want to play Iron Soldier 3 you should buy this game and put it next to the NUON you have in your closet so your kids can have this part of history :) Even if it is next to the Demo Only copy you got from the forum :) This is like when you could order Battlesphere for the Atari Jaguar at the Atari forum for a hundred bucks.

Thanks to Carl at Songbird Productions for making this possible.

If you are someone who has some history with the NUON, maybe an unreleased game or prototype, ex employee, know an ex employee, please consider checking in at the NUON Dome Forums and saying Hi and sharing your story! People are out there who really want to hear anything they can about the NUON and are trying to recover any of the lost history. It has been a long time and we would LOVE to see you again!

Apparently this email list is not that good as a good portion of the emails bounced back probably based on the age of the email addresses.

    How can you tell the difference between real traffic and indexing or AI generation bots?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    The bots will show up as users online in the forum software but they do not show up in my stats tracking. I am sure there are bots in the stats but the way alot of the bots treat the site do not show up on the stats
  • The Helper The Helper:
    New recipe is Shipwreck Dinner - https://www.thehelper.net/threads/recipe-shipwreck-dinner.193511/
  • Varine Varine:
    I want to build a filtration system for my 3d printer, and that shit is so much more complicated than I thought it would be
  • Varine Varine:
    Apparently ABS emits styrene particulates which can be like .2 micrometers, which idk if the VOC detectors I have can even catch that
  • Varine Varine:
    Anyway I need to get some of those sensors and two air pressure sensors installed before an after the filters, which I need to figure out how to calculate the necessary pressure for and I have yet to find anything that tells me how to actually do that, just the cfm ratings
  • Varine Varine:
    And then I have to set up an arduino board to read those sensors, which I also don't know very much about but I have a whole bunch of crash course things for that
  • Varine Varine:
    These sensors are also a lot more than I thought they would be. Like 5 to 10 each, idk why but I assumed they would be like 2 dollars
  • Varine Varine:
    Another issue I'm learning is that a lot of the air quality sensors don't work at very high ambient temperatures. I'm planning on heating this enclosure to like 60C or so, and that's the upper limit of their functionality
  • Varine Varine:
    Although I don't know if I need to actually actively heat it or just let the plate and hotend bring the ambient temp to whatever it will, but even then I need to figure out an exfiltration for hot air. I think I kind of know what to do but it's still fucking confusing
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Maybe you could find some of that information from AC tech - like how they detect freon and such
  • Varine Varine:
    That's mostly what I've been looking at
  • Varine Varine:
    I don't think I'm dealing with quite the same pressures though, at the very least its a significantly smaller system. For the time being I'm just going to put together a quick scrubby box though and hope it works good enough to not make my house toxic
  • Varine Varine:
    I mean I don't use this enough to pose any significant danger I don't think, but I would still rather not be throwing styrene all over the air

    I bitch about Xenforo sometimes but it really is full featured you just have to really know what you are doing to get the most out of it.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It is just not easy to fix styles and customize but it definitely can be done
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
