Post: #1 Posted: March 25, 2007, 4:37 AM Post subject: Join Gekko N'Sider! |
|
|
We are officially opening Gekko N'Sider!
Gekko N'Sider is located in our forums and will show you the latest development from the Gekko team on a weekly basis. Tons of screenshots and videos will be posted for your eyes only. To become an N'Sider member, we ask a donation of 7 USD (via PayPal) for a lifetime subscription which will mainly go into helping ShizZy buy a new development PC. (He's looking into getting a dual core/64bit PC to be able to make Gekko utilize those technologies)
We ask that everything located in that section stays in there and does not find its way all over the internet. We expect you to respect the authors hard work. If we find that some members do not respect these wishes, we will remove their permissions to view the N'Sider section.
Here are the steps to suscribe to N'Sider :
- Create an account at our forums or login to an existing account
- Go to the usergroups page located in the bar at the top
- Select Gekko N'Sider and click View Information
- Click on Subscribe to this group
- Click on the big Suscribe button and fill in the PayPal information
- Once the payment is completed, you will automatically be able to access the N'Sider sections (located under General Discussion)
You can alternatively follow this link if you're already a member.
We hope to see you in N'Sider. Your input is always welcomed and the authors are actively posting in those sections to reply to your questions.

There are still going to be screenshots for non subscribers.
N'Sider is just offering a lot more preliminary information, screenshots, answers to technical questions, etc. |

Yes, I'm pretty sure there would be 32-bit and 64-bit builds of Gekko. Dual core support can be coded to be set as options. (Example, PCSX2 has an option you can turn on or off for dual core computers.)
Forcing people to have a 64-bit OS just to use Gekko would be unfair. |

I think this is going a bit too far...I mean I like the project and everything but spending money for some screenshots so it will take even longer to release gekko because shizzy needs dual core eh?why not release a 32 bit gekko at first  |

No... As stated before, this is to give extra support toward the team, and to help Shizzy acquire a PC that he could use to develop a 64-bit, dual core version of Gekko. |

Yes, nobody is forcing anybody to do anything. Everything can't always be for free. We simply use this opportunity to offer extra benefits for those who support us most. _________________ [ShizZy]

| I have no problem giving shizzy a few bucks for his hard work, don't think of it as money for a few screen shots.... think of it as money for the finished product when it's ready. |
