Site Updates

[Marv]

ORP isn't the same as before. That's why we set up a forum that's really similar to the one we all knew well. It's also become the new home of RVGL.

We decided it's time to provide a new place to talk about Re-Volt and its development. While the Discord server has become the main center of activity with over 300 logged-in users, there is a need for a place to talk about more serious topics. Conversations in forums generally have a higher quality since more thought is put into the posts.
The pace is also completely different. It's nearly impossible to keep up with all the things that are happening on Discord. On Forums, however, you have the option to log in once a month and catch up by reading through the list of unread topics.

Another change introduced at the same time: The entire re-volt.io site now supports https. That means that data transfers between you and the website are encrypted, so you can feel a lot safer now!

Ah, good!

There was a problem with the mail server so some Emails couln't be delivered. If you signed up during that period and didn't receive a mail, try logging in anyway. I enabled your accounts manually.

Hello
You put Rotor in the Prugs class instead of Semi-Pros

Hello
You put Rotor in the Prugs class instead of Semi-Pros

Rotor has been ranked as a Prug since it's not competitive enough to be ranked as a semi-pro in online races.

Site Updates for today:

I decided to post about site updates again. I'll try to limit myself to one post per day. That means I'll be updating this post later on as I have some plans with the online packs. For now, this is what happened during the last few days:

Distribute:
The clockwork pack has been added to the distribute system. You can now install it with the Linux updater (install_rvgl.py add io_clockworks) or simply download it from the site.

Same applies to the Extra Music (io_music).

The bonus tracks have been merged with the main track pack (io_tracks).

Rotor is in Prug class Online and Semi Pro if you play solo ...

I added some GDrive mirrors for the game files and the soundtrack:

Black-ReVolt,
I/O classes are for ONLINE, not for offline sorting and racing in the first place.

[Marv]

I updated the background, the logo and link colors.
Also, the downloads page has been condensed.

I re-enabled the feed again. Let me know if it breaks anything. I also updated grav!

https://pad.re-volt.io has been up and running for a while now. It enables you to work on text documents with many people at once. Try it out!

[Marv]

I updated the events page to resemble a table that's easier to read: https://re-volt.io/online/events

The events archive is going to come back soon, too.

You might have noticed the new header on the forum. You can get the source here: https://gitlab.com/re-volt/rvio/rvio-header/

I'm planning to add the header to other sub-pages as well, like the Blender and RVGL documentation.

Please tell me if you think that other links should be added.

Sites where the header appears so far:

- https://yethiel.gitlab.io/RVDocs/
- https://forum.re-volt.io

Header looks really nice. Only link I can think of adding is the content packs one since that one is another major i/o project but other than that I believe you got them all
