No Site Branding for JrNet Games Plugin 2.40

I have decided not to allow custom site branding as a feature for version 2.40 of my plugin. Instead it will be deferred to 3.00. That makes it the second feature to be deferred to the 3x series(The first feature was recursive directory checking). Here is the projected timeline of versions for the JrNet Games Plugin.

  • 2.40-Jul 29        - Major Release+Stability Release
  • 2.50-Aug 3-9     - Major Release(Beginning of switch to 3x framework)
  • 2.55-Aug 16-19 - Minor Release(Code Cleanup, last release for 2x series)
  • 3.00-Aug 24      - Major Release(Many feature additions, recursive directory support, full theming support)

New Content System for JrNet

You may have noticed that we put a limit on the frontpage articles on JrNet. That is actually a small feature of a larger update we made. We have implemented a system where content publishers can post articles on JrNet or the JrNet Blog without being on their respective sites, and instead posting articles using separate desktop applications. Content publishers can contact me to learn how to use this new system.

JrNet Games Plugin 2.40 Updates

Development of the JrNet Games Plugin has been going pretty well. We have recently updated the Java launcher part to check if the plugin is installed, and then install it for you if it is not. Now, we will be updating the main plugin to extend that feature. In 2.40 we are planning to add a new version checker, so that when you try to start a game and a new version of the plugin is available it will let you know and even upgrade automatically for you.
