Shining Mania – Shut down

Our affiliate Shining Mania has now been shut down by its owner Redhawk. From the site:

This is Redhawk. yes the old owner of this joint. Sadly Shining Mania has been put down. I am terribly sorry to all of those who have worked on the project. I know some of you have worked really really hard on this. I am terribly disapointed that I have to leave this great project that was started in September.

It also appears that Redhawk himself is leaving the Shining scene for good, although he does hint at a return in the future.

Good luck for the future Red!

SHF webring membership

Today I received an invitation for the Shining Force Webring from Moogie, and agreed to join up with it, considering that the site could use some additional exposure!

This joinage is, however, unfortunately the direct cause of the (rather oogly) graphic in the bottom of the left menu. Rest assured though, Moogie promised a brand spanking new icon within a few weeks, which will be much smaller and pleasing for the eye.

Until then, I guess you’ll have to bear with us ;).

P.s. do NOT use it to browse the webring yet! Because, as it is, it’s rather layout-wrecking ;).

T.R.A.P. launched!

In response to the requests of many, I hereby launch:

The TSS Resource Accumulation Project (a.k.a. TRAP)

Much like the Resources section on the old site, TRAP aims to provide as many public resources as possible. Currently I am the only participant in the project, but anyone is free to join or contribute to it.

Hopefully in due time we’ll have gathered enough resources for people to no longer worry about having to do so much work on graphics and sound ;).

Along with the Project launch, I added two releases. One of them is a small tile pack, while the other one points to a public directory where a bunch of my tracked songs are available for public usage.

There will be more to come in the near future from me, but don’t hesitate to mail me at devlyn@zonnet.nl if you want to help out!

Adding news accounts…

Hi everyone,

Ty just solved the password issues on the news posting accounts, so I can finally add in all those news posting accounts.

If you would like to be able to post your project news right on the TSS front page, be sure to leave a message on YOB or e-mail me at djgroen@science.uva.nl :)

The future of TSS.

Dev and I (and I’m the rest of you) have noticed a large decrease in the overall activity of the Shining Source scene over the last few months. Releases have been few and far between, and not a great deal of news either.

We’d like your input on a solution to the problem, so please spare us a few minutes and reply in the forum topic linked below.

“The future of TSS”

We’d love to hear any thoughts you have on this matter!
