Cheating policy update

FA Striker

28 April, 2002 06:37
10 ABY
Some changes about mission skipping. From now, skipping missions is strictly forbidden, various abuses led me to this decision.

Skipping Missions

You are not allowed to skip a mission in a battle whatever the reason is. All missions of a battle must be completed. You are not to use the ingame 'skipping mission' option of X-Wing Alliance. If you encounter a battle that has a fatal bug in it that prevents you from playing the rest of the battle, you cannot edit your pilot file to skip the mission. If you encounter a fatal bug, fill out a Bug Report on the Battle Center to explain why you could not finish a mission, and save a backup of your pilot file so you can finish the battle after it has been repaired. Skipping missions may lead to have the batle removed from your combat profile.

Slight change in plans for the upcoming Imperial Storm Battles. The big contest between the Sovereign and the Battle Groups has been postponed until Wednesday, at 1800 Eastern time, as the Battle Groups have decided to take a gamble, and perform a Hit-and-Fade attack on the Sovereign itself. The Battle Groups vs. ATF contest has now ben resolved diplomatically. If you are unsure what to do, ask your Commanding Officer.

Turn 3 of Imperial Storm. The BGCOMs continue their "turf war" while the Command Staff is away. Forces from the Battlegroups have conquered a new Planet, giving them an edge on production. Elsewhere Battlegroup vessels have encountered Ships from the Sovereign Group, and seperately, the ATF. Can the Battlegroups knock the Sov out of First place? Will the ATF survive until next week? Find out on Monday April 29th. As always details are at the Official IS3 Site. If you are a stationed on the Sov, in the Battlegroups, or in the ATF, and do not know what to do, ask your Commanding Officer.

Many congratulations go out to the Wing Commander of Wing X, Colonel Mairin. who has been promoted to the coveted rank of General. Since her appointment to WC, Mairin's work has been tireless in supporting and building her Wing. Congrats Mai!

Also congrats go out to the new Wing VIII WC, Colonel Indaro Gallia. A long standing member of the Wing, I'm sure the Colonel will prove to be a fine choice for Wing Commander.

Thanks to the efforts of Primarch Koral of the BHG, the TIE Corps now has a new battles mirror. It's available as the first link when you view a battle. Also, in order to even out the downloads for all the mirrors, I'd ask that if you link to a battle for a competition, please link to the battle's page (with the download link) rather than directly to the battle's zip file itself. Thanks.

3) Some of the bigger items in the fictional HF Store have been adjusted to make them harder to aquire or have been removed.

4) I am looking into HF skins for Jedi Knight 2 so members, AGS/Staff Officers, and General Staff can be accurately represented in the game. Currently, the closest model/skin that matches the GS uniforms is the "shadow trooper" which is a far cry from your standard trooper.

The site problems

SA Astatine

12 April, 2002 23:03
10 ABY
About 12 hours ago, the server hosting the TIE Corps site experienced a hardware failure. As things in IT tend to snowball, there was an issue with the backups. Fortunately, the database is hosted on a totally seperate machine and all the files been restored. On the down side, there is an error with the code responsible for talking to the database. This code will give an error similar to this:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][Named Pipes]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
/rosters/combatratings.asp, line 83

In addition, to this, there is another main error message, which is relating to permissions being denied. I am working as fast as I can to fix these errors. If you encounter an error, do not come on IRC or email me with "it doesn't work!". This wastes my time as it could be literally hundreds of possible things making it "not work". Instead, be useful and include the following items:

  • The exact error message you got
  • The URL of the page you were accessing
  • What you were doing prior to the error coming up
This information allows me to directly target which file could be the problem (and there's thousands on here). Hopefully, I'll have the site up and running in the next few hours.

COO Competition Times

COL Brucmack

06 April, 2002 09:22
10 ABY
There was some confusion this morning over the time of the COO-run comp. The confusion is based on the fact that North America has not yet gone to Daylight Saving Time, and the rest of the world has :)

As of tomorrow, we will be on DST though, so consider all competition times on TC.org to be Eastern Daylight Time. In other words, comps are now at GMT -4. For most people, this will mean the comps are at the same time as they were prior to this week. For anyone in zones that do not switch to DST, the comps will be one hour earlier.

So, in other words, just consider the times listed in this database as being GMT -4 now :)

Internet guidelines

FA Ari

05 April, 2002 15:46
10 ABY
I have written up a list of Internet Guidelines for the entire fleet. You can always check them out at http://www.ehnet.org/guidelines.php. Sites MUST follow the rules laid out in the guidelines, and we at the Internet Office highly recommend considering the suggestions.

Rules:

  • Sites MUST have links to the EH Disclaimers (http://www.emperorshammer.org/disclaim.htm) and EH Privacy Policy (http://www.emperorshammer.org/privacy.htm) pages displayed on the main page of their site or on the navbar.
  • Sites may NOT use tsx.org as a redirection service.
  • Obviously, all sites must abide by Bylaws and AoWs.
  • Sites who do not obey these rules will not be linked to by any major EH site. Webmasters who do not comply after being asked to may be subject to Security Officer action.
  • The Internet Officer reserves the right to add rules to these at any time.

Strong Suggestions:

  • Sites with excessively long URLs should consider domain redirection provided by http://www.stardestroyer.org.
  • All sites should be compatible with the latest version of major browsers (IE 6 and Netscape 6).
  • Sites should preferably be optimized for 800x600 resolution, but if it is necessary, 1024x768 is also acceptable.
  • A good idea is to run your site through the W3C HTML Validator (http://validator.w3.org/) and CSS Validator (http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/).
  • Do not have unnecessary large images, popups, or Java applets on your page. They slow down loading time tremendously.
  • A warning about using MS Word and older versions of Frontpage to create websites: they add in large amounts of unnecessary tags, which slow down loading times.

These aren't too much to ask for I hope, but all EH sites MUST follow these rules.

More Battlestats Notes

COL Brucmack

05 April, 2002 07:41
10 ABY
This (sort of) goes along with my last note about our club's Battlestats roster...

BSC has a system that runs once per day and removes all members inactive for 100 days or more from their club rosters. The profiles remain, but they are removed from the club roster. So if you want to avoid this, do some activity on BSC before that happens, or resubmit your signup to the EH roster after being removed. Again, things like editing your profile and posting a message on BSC message boards also count towards activity there, and will reset the timer. On your player profile at BSC, you can see your last activity date as well.

Now, I have a request about new signups to the roster. Currently, I hunt for the new pilots in the TC database to see which division they should go in. It would do me a great help though if everyone could enter their ID line in the comment section of the signup. This comment is only seen by the person approving your signup, and will make sure that you aren't mistaken for someone else or (worse) not found in the TC DB. Thank you :)

Wing VI Shuts Down

FA Priyum Patel

05 April, 2002 05:12
10 ABY
Yes, those rumours are true. Yesterday, Wing VI onboard the SSSD Sovereign was officially closed down. Increasingly, the number of TIE pilots coming into the TC has declined and both myself and the SovCOM, Vice Admiral Proton, agreed that the Sovereign could no longer support so many TIE Wings. It was not an easy decision, but one we hope will strengthen the other Sov Wings. VI's former WC, Colonel Gen Es'mith, takes over the position of Wing I WC and all VI pilots have been transferred across the other Sov Wings. If anyone has a question or comment about what has happened, then please don't hesitate to email myself and the SovCOM.

The Aggressor Strike Force Squadron Competition started approx. 2.5 - 3 years ago under then AD Priyum. Its goal was to create an atmosphere for the ASF where everysingle piece of activity was graded or scored, and each and every pilot had an opportunity to gain medals for this activity. It sought to find which squadron was the best in the ASF.

Of the activities graded: MP, SP, mission creation, battle creation, fiction, medals earned, Iwats courses completed, Recruitment, Graphics, to name a few are scored. I have also included WoW standings (1st,2nd,3rd asf pilots in the WoWs). Good luck to all ASF Squadrons and Pilots in this competition.
