Glad to hear you guys finally got RC2 out

[Yigal]

Good work guys
Suppose I sign up for Charter Membership .. would I get an SMF RC2 download as well?  Still supporting SMF as well.

[SoLoGHoST]

Congrats!  Well, like vbgamer45 said, "Time to Make the Donuts... errr, update my MODs!

Anxiously awaiting a public release!

Cheers

I suppose as far as the Version Check is concerned, SMF 2.0 RC1.2 will remain the official latest release until RC2 is publicly available?

Correct.

Yes, but there is a seven day delay before you can access special charter downloads, as noted on the sign-up page. This was done to cut down on fraud.

Although I don't think public RC2 will be out in a week (honestly, out of experience: not before 2 weeks, probably in a months, maybe in two ), and thus it may be worth for him to wait for 7 days, I should point out that people with 2.300 messages usually aren't frauds My eagerness to test & try SMF2 when I bought a CM back in september '07 was what led the team to lift my 7-day wait as well. I did prove in the end that I was committed. (Hopefully.) (Did I?)

So, in short: if you've been a community member for a long time, just PM one of the project managers, I think it's safe to assume they'll remove your waiting time.

Waiting over =) Congratulations!

after this release, i can use the default skin with curve but optional ?

i like more the default skin 

[Arantor]

You can still use the original RC1.2 skin (it's named as 'Core'), however Curve is default now.

It won't be that long, really. No need to be so pessimistic.

Honestly, we've had members sign up for a charter membership, download an preview version and withdraw their PayPal transaction, only to leak out the preview version on a bittorrent site. This is why we setup the seven days restriction.

Thank you SMF!

Is there an RC2 Forum online, I would like to take a look at the new Curve!

[grafitus]

Yupii!

Ok, I have just now seen it, and gotta tell ya?  I'm puzzled, trying to install mods is a 1 way street.  That is, once you download them, you get 1 option to install, right after uploading them to the server.  After that you can look at it, but you can't try to install it again.  Also, what happened to the file edits??  Is there a completely different way to make mods for RC2??  Or has the file edits (i.e. - the <operations>) been taken out?  I kinda liked that there, shame it's not there anymore.  Was very helpful in seeing where problems occurred during install

Well, hopefully this is among 1 of the annoyances that you mentioned, as it is annoying the hell out of me.

P.S. -> Love the new look

[klumy]

thanks

[Arantor]

What's the mod you're trying to install/uninstall? Likely means the uninstall block hasn't been updated.

(You can try using the Advanced option to manually override with a new version number for now)

[SoLoGHoST]

Ok, Thanks Arantor, will take a much much deeper look into it later

Bytheway, all mods I'm trying to install belong to me.  PM Attachments, Signature Image Rotator, and a new 1 I'm working on.  Uninstall blocks are all there.  So not sure what the problem is.  Just says that it is not compatible with this version of SMF, nothing else.  No coding errors, nothing!  Perhaps there is a way to turn on code edit errors.  Though, will have a deeper look into it a bit later.

Cheers

EDIT:  The code I am using to check with in the package-info.xml file is:

Code Select Expand

for="2.0 - 2.0.99"

Is this correct for SMF 2.0 RC2??

[Antechinus]

The file edits are different because of the different templates but the xml syntax is the same as it always was. I've just updated one of my mods and it works fine on Curve.

http://custom.simplemachines.org/mods/index.php?action=download;mod=1718;id=117967

Do not attempt to install that file on RC1.2. You wont like the results. The RC1.2 version of the mod is still available.

Enjoy. 

[Arantor]

Can't you bundle the different versions into a single file then?
