Welcome! I’ve been researching unreleased NUON games since July 31, 2022 and would like to share everything I learn with the community. Untold NUON Tales is a series of stories that aim to archive the history VM Labs’ NUON DVD/Multimedia/gaming platform. The NUON platform was not around for long, causing many planned games accessories to be cancelled. So what happened to them? I started this research to find out. Sit back and relax as we travel through time and unravel the history of the NUON behind the scenes. Stories will include dialogue with developers, internet research, and recovered artifacts (when possible). Due to the nature of this research, stories won’t be released on a consistent schedule. I want these stories to be as complete as possible when I release them. This forum thread will be used to post updates and will have links to each story so they can all be accessed from one place.

Thank you all for your time and I hope everyone here will enjoy reading Untold NUON Tales, history as it has never been told before!

My apologies. A reminder that the release of my stories will be inconsistent as mentioned in the original post of this thread. That being said, I mentioned a couple times somewhere else a couple months ago that I had around four projects that were far along. Two of those have had to be put on hold a few times for different reasons. It's unfortunate, but I want these stories to be complete when I release them. In the mean time, my research has been progressing and I have been meeting new people for other stories. Once I'm able to confirm which story will be the next one in the series, I'll be sure to give an update in this thread.
 
I am not giving anything away but there is great stuff going to come out with this. V-SNES is a real thorough guy!

I hope that K3V will seriously consider adding this content to the actual NUON-Dome site.
 
This thread is long overdue for an update. To start, it’s unfortunate that I was unable to release more stories after the initial two this year. Writing stories that I could consider complete has been quite a challenge for a number of reasons. Even though it has been a while since I last released a story, I can assure you all that my research has been very productive. Throughout this year, I have continued to hone my research skills, continuing to learn what does and doesn’t work, as well as discover new research techniques altogether. In addition, I have been working on quite a few stories and have made a ton of new connections this year. I do have a couple stories that should be coming out very soon. Once I confirm a couple things, I’ll be sure to update this thread with their release dates. Aside from these two, I have a number of stories that are far along but are still missing crucial information and therefore require further investigation. Furthermore, I have made 60+ word documents which contain at minimum preliminary research covering every cancelled game and alleged NUON developers. They include both internet research and contact info for anyone potentially tied to said NUON development. As such, I have built a solid foundation to build on and things should move a lot quicker next year. Overall, I am more excited than anyone to share these stories and will continue to do the best I can to make them happen. Thank you everyone for your patience and support. See you all in the New Year!
 
Thanks for keeping at it V-SNES. While I don't have the research skills you clearly do, I have a passion for reading and watching projects created by passionate researchers/historians like yourself! I look forward to seeing what you come up with.
 
I am looking forward to what is coming up. I know V-SNES has been busy interviewing alot of people and doing a huge amount of stuff behind the scenes in the NUON community. By contacting all these old NUON people that gets them back engaged and I know for a fact that the NUON is like a virus permeating lots of companies where they are closet NUON owners :) It is all going to come together and this Untold NUON Tales stuff that V-SNES has coming is just going to be what we need to get our NUON emulation! :) Go V-SNES!

    I don't think he ever figured out how to do the calamari in a pan though, like idk how to do that either. He was afraid of the at home deep fryers though and it's like yeah, that's fair, I am too
  • Varine Varine:
    He was just such a sweet old man, we had two servers pregnant and they held a baby shower together, he was soooooo fucking excited to get to see a baby. Unfortunately he died a month or so before they were born
  • The Helper The Helper:
    So I decided to Google some people that I had not seen or heard from in a while and sure enough one of my old best friends, we had a falling out years ago but whatever, find out he died of Pancreatic Cancer in January. I have also lost a few of my closer acquaintances from growing up the last year. Getting old - people die - I kinda thought it was going to be this way a few years ago....

    Forum running super slow again
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Not really clear from the stats as to what is causing the slowness.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    We get a lot of guest traffic so it may just be the load is getting too high and not from any particular source.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Looks like the server is maxed out on CPU.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Oh it looks like a lot of the traffic is Silkroad Forums. That domain isn't protected by Cloudflare.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    But the old Silkroad site is still on its own server. I just had a test site set up on this server for it.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    I just disabled that test site. Let's see if that helps the load.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Looks much better already.
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I had actually forgot about the Silkroad site. I had asked
  • The Helper The Helper:
    SD Ryoko about it and he said the couple of people left on there really like it, that was a few years ago, maybe I should check back
  • jonas jonas:
    I guess when you're getting old, and the last day of soup season draws near, you start wondering
  • jonas jonas:
    will I make it to the start of the next season? or was this the last time I'll ever have my favorite dish?
  • The Helper The Helper:
    I am doing my first Vibe Coding project. In installed the environment and tools according to instructions but it is all chat doing this for me at my direction. It is fun really and holy shit I might finish in 2 hours what it would have taken a day to in my Access and this would be an electron app complete new
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Good stuff.
  • Ghan Ghan:
    Just make sure it is secure. :)
     +1
  • The Helper The Helper:
    It will only be on internal network
  • jonas jonas:
    Man the AI is good about gaslighting about security though. I've had several times where I pointed out security problems and it tried to convince me that with a tiny tweak it suddenly becomes secure
  • jonas jonas:
    Like using a distrobox as a "secure" container, and when I point out that's not secure at all, it claimed that specifying home will make it secure
  • The Helper The Helper:
    Yeah I finished the app today and it is bad ass. Like ChatGPT codes way better and faster than me that is for sure. The app is unsecure AF though and I would never put it anywhere it was obvious. I did not even show it today, the boss never made it in, but I showed the office and they liked it and frankly, I do software for a living and I am qualified to judge this kind of stuff and... Holy Shit this is a game changer. It took me around 4 hours to finish the app from design to end and that is much faster than I could have done it in the outdated MS Access the thing it replaced was in. Good Stuff! Had tons of fun doing it too! Work has not been fun in a while - today was fun!

  • The Helper The Helper:
    And really, I did not do it, chat wrote all the code I just pasted it in, tested it, acted like Chats eyes on it and just learned. I learned VS Code, how to use the Terminal and a bunch of Powershell and Command stuff, I used Git for the first time and learned how to save, search, start my server, stop it, run the tests, do some debugging - all the freaking fun stuff - chat wrote all the code

  • The Helper The Helper:
    I think the key was the 40 minutes of that 4 hours that went into the design of it. The thing was fully specced out before we started and the only reason it took so long was I had never done any of it and had to get used to the navigation and workflow.

  • The Helper The Helper:
    React, JS and AG Grid are the tools that I know i used along with git. I learned alot but it will be a minute before I fully understand everything I am doing in these environments because I am really just following instructions.
