    Update

    1. New Resource Category Created: Cities XXL "The XLEX" with all the necessary subcategories for mods. A new field will allow the modder to list search tags (used by Cities XXL) for searching for the item in the Cities XXL menus.

    2. The Current XLEX is now renamed: CitiesXL (circa 2009 - 2014). All these mods will remain backward compatible with at least Cities XL 2012 and Platinum.

    3. On February the Top Menu Item "XLEX" will be pointed to the new Cities XXL Resource Panel

    Update

    1. XLNation Logo updated to reflect both Cities XL but also Cities: Skylines

    Our computers are large. We play many games. XLNation is expanding to support Cities: Skylines. There is room for both. Each approaches Cities Building from a different perspective. Many of us will play both. For realism and design we have Cities XXL, for Simulation there is Cities: Skylines.

    I hope the community can expand and embrace diversity in City Builders and not endlessly drop into fanboy fanaticism.

    Here are some of the other options considered

    Im fine with what im seeing right now but if i should vote thats going to be for banner no. 4.

    On another note, I like the direction we're going forward to right now. Expanding to other city building games is a great idea! XLN shall now strive to become the best community out there for city building games but we shall all remember our roots as a community dedicated to CXL, a community that made the game better and better to the point that the original game was nothing compared to the modified one. :)

    I think the idea is great but I wouldn't change it until Skylines has been released. Skylines looks good but so did the latest Simcity and we know how that turned out.

    Update

    1. The Shoutbox (TaigaChat) Bugfixes and Additions
    • Added live message edits (other users will now see edits without having to refresh)
    • Added live message deletions (deleted messages will now disappear for other users without them having to refresh) - this also applies to the /prune command
    • Improved performance of client-side message rendering (less stutters as messages appear), particularly when speed mode is enabled.
    • Added option (default off) to display the number of users in chat in a bubble above the navtab.
    • Fixed MOTD changes not being applied until a message was posted or the page was refreshed
    • Improved responsiveness of all shoutbox views
    • Improved layout of message input and toolbar (input box now fills all width and spacing between it and the toolbar is constant at all non-mobile window sizes)
    • Improved support for non-standard sidebar widths
    • Added support for 12 hour clock time display (only if selected in the default language) with speed mode enabled and absolute time selected
    • Archive thread now displays usernames using the [USER] bbcode tag rather than a direct link to their profile, enabling the use of the member card.
    • Fixed unreliable ‘members in chat’ updating with speed mode disabled
    • Fixed certain scenario where widgets titles would link to the homepage rather than the full shoutbox page
    • Refactored, cleaned and namespaced all Javascript code
    • Fixed ‘bbcode toolbar’ option

    Media Gallery Updated to version 1.04

    This release improves performance in various areas, especially for larger galleries, by adding indexes to various tables.


    Simplified Chinese Language Added

    中文說明:

    1) 此繁體中文版本大約完成了 85-95% 的翻譯。儘管不是全部,已經足夠讓ㄧ般論壇用戶使用順暢。沒翻譯的部份大多是給管理員的後端操作界面。

    any fix yet for uploading patch files with FireFox? seems when I browse to find the patch file it will not recognise patch files. Not sure if this is just a security issue with Firefox or the upload feature. I find Google Chrome browser works fine. so im thinking it's more of a browser issue!
