HELP! Nightwulf site down

[Briznock]

Ahh, okay.  I didn't realize that.  Reading back through I see now.  If there is a way to just get the ROM editor stuff, let me know.  Until then, I'll wait for an update to the editor.

Thanks

Wait, people are still using that piece of shit?

I'm flattered, it worked well enough but as Gantry notes behind the scenes its not my cleanest work. Perl is an acquired taste to begin with.

Would love to rewrite from scratch into something more modern but really don't have the time or frankly a lot of interest in starting over. Happy to answer questions and/or provide information for anyone interested in doing so. Or maybe if I become independently wealthy and suddenly find myself with a lot of free time I'd give it a go.

Will also ping Gantry, if I can bandaid the old version to keep it running happy to do so.

Is there anyway for me to run this program locally on my own computer to edit the teams and lineups?  I'm thinking of finally recording/streaming the Heaven vs Hell "Not of this World Series"

I was supposed to work on getting wulfie access to the server, but forgot.  Bump this shit if I don't have an update by the end of this weekend.

Yes and no, I've never been a programmer of desktop apps / executables. Well maybe some silly VB stuff when I was a teen. So this doesn't exist as a "program" one would just install and run, the web browser provides the UI, several Perl scripts provide the backend, and CGI is the "glue" between them.

In theory I guess if you locally installed a web server and perl, configured CGI, used a browser to access your local web server, sure probably. But guessing that's more trouble than anyone would want to put into this, particularly CGI since I think its disabled by default and generally fallen out of favor because it can be a security vulnerability if used improperly.

I've got VMs for days to screw with and setup to edit up a new ROM.  Just let me know what I'd need to do to get it working.  Wanting to tinker with some things and test.  Gotta update the rosters for Heaven and Hell too.  Debating on making a version of the ROM where all the dead RBIers are also buffed but still on their regular teams.

I honestly had no idea people were using it regularly, that said unless nightwulf (who barely is active anymore) wants to put in the effort to get it working it's probably not coming back. 

I use the site pretty religiously. I have about a hundred ROMs that I've created for all seasons of MLB ("The Heritage Collection").

I've started reverse-engineering the ROM in-case I have to free-hand update the game.

I gave nightwulf access before, not sure if he had a chance to start looking.  Of course I moved the server now so I'll have to give him all new access when he's ready.
