Curious here - since the engine is written in C# and some Java ( if I read Flavien correctly )
Is it ’ possible ’ to build a bridge API ( by some talented code writer - lol ) to be able to use Open Simulator in conjunction with i-Novae engine? … in some fashion. Anyone know of it’s possible?
I don’t know about the Java part, but most of it is written in C++
IIRC, the C# part is for scripting, like for (most) games made with Unity. First time I hear about Java in the INE, though.
APIs aren’t bound to a certain programming language. Given the right api you can ‘easily’ let programs written in two different languages communicate with each other.
Unity uses C#, a bastardized version of javascript, and a bastardized version of python, and they all work together.

@LucasFIN @LucasFIN1 were you also able to get your account back?
EDIT: apperantly not because you haven’t logged in since January 2nd : (
Still logged in as LucasFIN1. I’ll try to log in again.
Edit: nope… still FIN1… Did someone get his account back?
Yeah. Keith cleared up @xamino’s account.
Also guessing @cybercritic would like to have his back too but that’s a separate issue altogether.
Yup, I got mine back. Keith simply deactivated my @xamino1 account and reactivated this one. See here.
I don’t have an issue with my account, the original was locked because of the password bug, then deleted, then I made a new one to reserve the name. Anyway all my posts are on this account, only thing that would be nice is to have my join date from the original account transferred to this one.

Hi Lucas.
Can you remove me from the list, and add user JCHD instead.
That is the account I will be using from now on, since that has dev access.
Thanks in advance!

H, Kamisama here.
I saw some Infinity news coming up recently and couldn’t believe they were releasing something that looked like a game 
I think i joined in 2009 when people were still playing the 2008 combat prototype and I used to post in the old forums for a few years, then lost interest as the project seemed to go nowhere, and forum activity was decreasing. I certainly was not “well known” or very active, I was mostly gawking at the cool ships.
I’m mostly curious about few things though : were the content of the old forums archived somewhere ? I also wondered what happened to all the ships contributed by everyone ? More importantly is inovae still putting some of those assets to use (the SFC especially were usually well made and i think i recognize some designs in the screenshots but cannot say for sure). .
It’s funny though i remember many names in that list (SPECTRE, Angrymarine, Kichae, etc.) even though I was never that much involved.
Unfortunately, the old forums were hacked and I believe all/nearly all of the content was lost. All of the current in-game assets are unique in that to avoid legal fees, iNovae simply created all new assets.
Welcome back!
Old site was hacked yes. The devs still have access to the old forums content though for internal use.
Some of the old ships have been used in either the KS trailer or the prototype. The Armormite for instance. But just very few due to the shift in quality requirement and the problematic legal situation with community built ships.
Lol, Too bad I wasn’t around for this
Not only was the old site hacked, but the source code for the engine was on that hacked server. It was probably an automated spam bot hack though, searching the Internet for well know vulnerabilities as it appears the code was not stolen. Prior to the hack the site has probably not been updated in years.
So what team color should The Old Guard subscribe to?
- RED
- GREEN
- BLUE

I just realized how sick it is that the Old Guard’s acronym is OG.
We are the OGs!
