BlackFire 2.0 Pre-release

This is the first official BlackFire 2.0 Pre-Release. It is still pre-alpha and there are some things missing that you can find in Blackfire 1.6, however basic functionality like chatting and detecting games is there for 100% .

This is amazing. It's crashed on me once but I love the way the interface is beginning to look. Good work! It's really nice. :)

@but2002 could you send me the crash report? its very likely that I fixed the crash by now ( made a stupid mistake somewhere in the Xfire library ).

Still here

There haven't been any updates on BlackFire lately, this news post will explain why.

I started BlackFire way back in the day when I was 16 years old, I just came from the web development scene and did not know a lot about application development. Because of this, the some parts of BlackFire 1.6 are still messy.

I decided to clean up this mess, by re-thinking every core component of BlackFire and build a new house for it, BlackFire 2.0. Currently BlackFire 2.0 has not even reached the Alpha stage yet, but will do that soon.

BlackFire2.0 teaser


So, what is new in BlackFire2.0? Not that much actually, most things will just be refined and improved, while others will be left out completely. Some features in BlackFire1.6 are just completely useless and will therefore be removed. On release it will not feature ingame, however if the people that currently are having issues with ingame will contact me, I will try to develop a new and hopefully much more stable version of ingame. I currently do not see why I would continue supporting ingame in the client if it is so unstable.

BlackFire2 will also come with a system to fund further development of the project. Now before you get scared or want to write an angry comment, it is NOT a banner ad. Every 1 out of 4 links in BlackFire that are clickable will be supported by an ad; in other words, when you click on it you will go to a page that will redirect you to the actual link within 10 seconds. This also has a max of 3 per runtime, so it will not be annoying for you, the end user, at all. I am still not very sure about this system and that is why I am looking for people that want to give it a shot, giving me feedback on how annoying it actually is.

I hope this will sum up for a bit what I have been working on for the last couple of weeks, if you want to respond feel free to comment down below or send me an email at jabwdr@gmail.com. You can always get a hold of me through xfire, my username is jabwd.

cheers

True genius is not measured in how much we learn, but how much we dont learn. Being able to build, invent and inspire others without so much as pick up a book.... That is true genius, That is Steve Jobs

Downgrading your iDevice to iOS 4 from 5

1) Turn off your device

2) Launch iTunes

3) Connect your iDevice ( keep it turned off )

4) Hold the power and home button for 10 seconds

5) Release the power button, keep holding the home button

6) Release the home button when iTunes says "iPhone/iPod/iPad detected in recovery mode"

7) Press restore

8) Grab a cookie, because you're done.


-- Notes --
You cannot downgrade if your iDevice gives you the "connect to itunes" icon when you turn it on.
You cannot downgrade with Xcode.

Showing friend nicknames

It can happen that you have "show usernames" on by default if you install version 1.5 ( latest )

To see the nicknames of your friends again, go to the view menu and click on "show nicknames".
If you do not see a change immediately then scroll for a bit, and you will see magic happen.

A taste of Mac OS X Lion and BlackFire

I have spent quite some time developing 1.5, the next major release of BlackFire.
So I thought I'd share a new thing I have been working on:



There are still a lot of work I have to do before I see this version as ready, chatrooms are currently almost unusable and there is no way of changing the chat style yet.

The interface cleanups I wanted to do are almost finished and the new games list is awesome!

cheers.

John
Cool. Can you also make it so that we can change the colors for each thing, too?
jabwd
@John Yeah I could, but I am not going to do that now, there are really other more important things at the moment.
Chasingu
Your not going to have to have Lion to use this though right? Snow Leopard will work just fine right?
iafyourself
Hey man The new chat looks awsum. Really looking forward to 1.5 because the bug with 1.4 is I cant talk in-game. Please e-mail me when it is finished at joachim.julian123@gmail.com Thanks
jabwd
No this isn't Lion only, it still works with Leopard and Snow Leopard. This version will be released as soon as enough people have tested it.
iafyourself
Hey man Can you make the new 1.5 be able to take snapshots and record gameplay? thx

Yo, mijn xfire lijst namen komen alleen te zien met de mensen hun xfire login, niet hun nickname hoe verander ik dit?
BlackFire's active users

You can view a list of the 200 most recent logons here: user list

Keep in mind that it will grow very fast, as the tracking just started a few minutes ago.


You're usernames are stored in the database in such a way that no one will ever be able to find out what it was, so your privacy is not violated with this "tracking" at all.
