Reversion Conclusion
By: Simplex Date: October 10, 2013, 9:33 pm
---------------------------------------------------------
Conclusion:
I'm not going to just say no, that's a dick move. I am going to
say no and here's why.
No and here's why:
The new source is unimaginably better than the last in all
aspects of the acronym RSPS, except the graphics for the 06
nostalgic-loving players. The packets, the minigames, the
skills, the base, the everything is just crazily more vesatile,
insanely more stable, remarkably more flexible and simply better
programmed when compared to the preceding base.
Reverting to the old source is a definite no. We are slowly
adding each and every piece of content the community liked from
before the overhaul to make Simplexus the same server it was
with an extraordinarily better base. The base is the heart of
the server, and the previous base was built upon disease ridden
code that would never hold over 100 players.
For people who understand things better visually, imagine this
Jenga tower as 20 players online on the old server base. It
works, but it could crash down at any time leaving the server
down and myself to clean up the problems in the base and start
rebuilding.

In order to have a stable, traffic-ready base, all of these
blocks need to be placed the correct way and in such a fashion
that can fluidly handle the traffic and one that handles all
possible bugs in the base (ex. dupes, cheat clients/botting
protocols patched, glitches that crash the server, etc), at the
base, fixed.
I may be putting my foot down, and some players may quit, but
it is for the good of the server and the good of the future of
this community. I do have a solution that I have been repeating
for the last few days. I can work on a setting that allows you
to switch between rendering the characters to 317 (low detail)
and back to 508 (HD). As for the tier of items that are in the
game, it is completely up to you guys. I will be having a poll
on this portion of the debate.
You will be choosing:
[list]
[li]The best tier of armor - Primal and lower - Nex and lower -
Godwars and lower - or - barrows and lower[/li]
[li]All content that should be added from the previous base (See
this thread
HTML http://www.simplexus.ca/suggest-updates/its-the-little-things/)[/li]
[li]Low Detail graphic return in the form of a toggle button
(yes or no)[/li]
[/list]
Thank you for your dedication and spirit towards Simplexus. I
would be overjoyed to see you all passed the date of the poll.
-Matt
PS: Sorry if a lot of this does not make sense or I carried on,
I did not edit it and I'm pretty groggy from today (sick all
day) thanks for getting this far.

Alright I understand 99% of this haha. but we weren't asking for
a reversion, or to revert, just something separate that happened
to be older than 508. i understand that it would be glitchy, and
it wouldnt hold a large playerbase, but it wouldnt have to
account for any updated, maybe just bug fixes. and there woldnt
be a need to hold any more than 50 players. 40 even.
