Author Topic: Upload-a-Save  (Read 9641 times)

Not going to do anything with that design mockup? Aww.

added it to my bookmarks, sounds like this'll be incredibly useful.

Another suggestion, you should be able to sort the pages by name, downloads, and possibly upload date with the option of ascending or descending

7:47 AM - Megaguy: what?
7:47 AM - Masterlegodude: From Anybody's site
7:47 AM - Masterlegodude: It doesn't have an extension
7:47 AM - Masterlegodude: So it's just a file
7:48 AM - Megaguy: works for me.
7:50 AM - Masterlegodude: It says sumz and that's it, no extension
7:50 AM - Masterlegodude: It's like this for other files too
7:50 AM - Megaguy: it works for me...
7:50 AM - Megaguy: you mean in the save file as dialog?
7:51 AM - Masterlegodude: The window that pops up when you click download, yes
7:51 AM - Masterlegodude: And when it does download, it's still a file with no extension
7:51 AM - Masterlegodude: Oh, Firefox is actually saying it's a "octet/stream"
7:52 AM - Masterlegodude: What
7:52 AM - Megaguy: that doesn't regognise .bls. save it anyway and and you might need to rename the file to add the .bls
Is there a way i can fix this?

Ill make an airplane hanger for you guys and upload it maybe. Very nice website!

it has a reputation for being a rare save
Then the best thing you can do is make it public.

what browser are you using? is it a certain file or any one of them? i can't recreate this issue.

I do not like how this easily can become and pretty much already has become a dump. It's just gathered saves lying around. And worst of all.. it's awesome saves lying around in complete lack of the dignity and honor they truly should be granted. These wonderful saves will in a matter of days be just as usual as the default ones. People probably won't have any idea who even brought them to life and easily will take them for granted. I want the saves for everyone to get but, not in this way.

Anyways..:
No structure except alphabetical. I lack description, credits, brickcount, add-ons. These are crucial for a better site.

whoever uploaded Karting v2 uploaded the meh default version

this site is great, but it really does need a better format. i dont know the extent of what you can do, but sections like "most popular" or "newly uploaded" would be nice. it also seems like (what sleven was saying?) anyones mediocre WIP saves, cool but small builds, and things like sumz city are all getting mixed together.

i can definitely see people in the future interested in uploading a great build, but seeing tons of garbage all over the site could persuade them not to



BASICALLY it would be nice to discriminate the saves, maybe have an unrated section and a section with very highly rated saves. soon this will probably be full of crappy freebuilds and small WIP things, which is fine, but it would be nice to sort the stuff out a bit


(basically what sleven said) ALSO a form like brickcount, credits, and addons would be really helpful when uploading a save

these are all features that i can see being added in the future

Also each save should get it's own page with more screenies, info, required add-ons etc.

if i were you, i would take the site down until these updates are installed (if they are going to be); this site will probably become a dump if left as is

thats just me, do what you will

Also each save should get it's own page with more screenies, info, required add-ons etc.

it's no problem to clean it up later

Ya well, I was hoping for something like this: http://forum.blockland.us/index.php?topic=211093.0 to come true but this, p much, inferior service came first. I generally have bad vibes about this.
