The goalposts have been moved (removed actually) ....

New criteria:

1. TCS member registration to include SteamID.
2. Email back to member with server password and basic TCS guidelines.
3. Mass email to all registered TCS members for server password changes (Admin only).
4. Ability for member to update their email details.
5. A way to lookup a member's email address from a SteamID (Admin only).

The P2 functionality looks like a non-starter. I've checked the website and the author isn't responding to calls for 1.6 compatibility. Someone with a bit of savvy tried to tweak the existing install but, unlike WONIDs, SteamIDs are not presented to the server at time of connection.  <_<

So, dropping the P2 side of things - what's the timescales?

ok, well I can tweak the sign-up pages to take steam id instead of won ID.

The database is independant anyway, it was designed to have P2 plug into it. It will happily run as a stand alone unit.

Can someone remind me where I have to go to sign up on G-man's funky reg system?  I want to ake a peek at the wording of the email and then post some suggestions back to the forum here.

Oops, I'm a muppet, I signed up for the PCS page and input my deadmen email. Only problem is I don't get that email address set to my work. Any chance I can et my logni infor in a PM Gandy?  :huh:
Cheers, Bert

Gandalf

heh, you can go back there with the username and password you entered and change your own e-mail address.

Don't worry too much though as it's only in trial stages and the database will be scrubbed when I make changes and when it goes live.

I've got to re-install P2.  Lets hope it still works with this steamed-poop version of HL.
