Author Topic: JVS Elevators Released? Questions being asked.  (Read 4411 times)

Conspiracy:
I recently read on another thread that a very mysterious thing has happened. It seems Trader is almost finished with the JVS elevator but has not released it to the public.

I was just on Bushido's server and I saw a weird glassish thing that went up and down. I asked him if it was JVS elevators and he said yes. I asked if it had been released and he said "Not for you."
Not sure what's going on...

If it has been finished as it would seem, why has hasn't it been released to the public? Will it ever? These questions are being asked forum wide. Discuss.

not JVS elevator. Thats just another elevator. Try riding up the elevator, and you'll find what trader wants fixed.

In V10 Slicksilver555 had a lovey Elevator. I tried it and it is like a glass like object that you are talking about, It went up and down laggy-ish but it was very cool. I think there should be other elevators that should be released until that bug gets fix'd for Trader.

I have made some elevators but they're ass compared to what I know JVS will be. I believe those were mine on Bushi's server too - them being JVS elevators is a bit of a joke between all the people who have them.

There'll be a stufffest again when this thread draws more attention; I'd advise you to lock it before that happens.

Yeah, I remember being on somebodys server who had an elevator-like thing. It was cool, but didn't work all that great.

nix, clock and i (and... maybe slicksilver) use clock's elevators

FACT: The best add-ons (almost) never get released.

Conspiracy?...
Yeah, I was wondering why Trader would've made elevators private. That doesn't seem like Trader at all. I rode up the elevator once but it seemed to work just fine. I think it was a little buggy coming to a stop, though.
Either way Trader needs to finish elevators, we got Doors pack 2, after all.

FACT: The best add-ons (almost) never get released.

I released Doors.

Seriously, people.  There's something that you really need to understand.  While I still have the code I used for my stuffty Elevators in v8, I'm not using it for a new Elevators project.  I have already planned a much better way of implementing Elevator functionality.  There is an issue with the engine that runs Blockland that prevents me from doing it this way and, until Badspot can take the time to fix it, I'm not working on them.

How many lines of code are in my new Elevators project?  0.

Maybe I should zip up an Add-On that does nothing and name it JVS_Elevators.zip.  Maybe then you people would shut up.  From now on, until I tell you I'm working on it, the Elevators Add-On is on hiatus.

I spoke to Trader like a few months ago, and he said he hasn't even started yet.

And Darren.

lol zip "it" up and upload it on rtb.

people would rate it up before even trying it. and it would be a raging "successful" mod anyways lol

it's also on Nixills server...

When I saw it at Bushido's server, the problem was more so going down then going up. Players would fall through the elevator if they were trying to go down more then one floor. (Usually over 3-5 floors, actually.)
