Rage3D v5.0 - what do you want to see?

Rage3d 5.0 release date

I know one of the concerns was bandwidth usage, so I did a semi-lightweight mockup.

It's got 1.8s load time on GT Metrix with a 500KB payload - and this is without any optimizations.

Feedback please, let me know what you think :)


Also, Ichy, sne me a PM some time. My employer is opening a new data center and I can get you a good deal on VPS hosting. Just need to know what your current bandwidth and storage requirements are.

:up:

I shot him an email. Hopefully he'll reach out to you soon.
 
Wouldn't it be easier to slap Wordpress in front and forums in the back with vB?

Just create a template or buy one. Easy upgrade to something flashier and easy to maintain.

Wordpress was what was used on the last attempt, but there were a lot of issues IIRC. I wasn't involved in the development of that site, but any developer can tell you how easy it is for WP to get janky as hell.

I made that template based off of another one I found on theme forest, with some minor changes. Sure, it's lacking in the nifty assets the theme forest one has, but I did it for free :lol: It's not as fancy, but it's lightweight, works, and can be optimized.

I could easily integrate it into dotCMS, which is superior to to WP in many ways. It's not as easy to install, but it's still free and easily maintained by an individual or a team.
 
Ahhh....Wordpress. The security sieve like what Adobe flash is to web browsers.
Take it as you will but I'm yet to see a single one of our Wordpress sites hacked - the problem is with people who know nothing about security and blindly run sites with files writable by the web server, have no application firewalls and in general just drop a bunch of php files on a server and then expect to be done.

With a bit of work and suitable plugins, it's quite secure.

Don't go by me...I just read what's in the headlines. :D Your only as secure as your administrator wants it to be, assuming he's capable...:)
 
Shouldn't need to rely on plugins to make a CMS secure. To keep WP secure and avoid exploits, you have to keep it updated. What causes the most issues when updating WP? Plugins. What do you need to make WP actually work the way you want? Plugins. What causes exploits outside of WP core? Plugins. What can prevent you from upgrading WP at all? Plugins.

Mossack Fonseca. :bleh:
 
To keep WP secure and avoid exploits, you have to keep it updated.:
Actually proper permissions and application level firewalls (such as those in your MySQL/MariaDB) are even more important than just keeping it up to date - we run some sites in docker instances that are completely immutable and isolated, only the DB can be written into without baking a new instance.

Something breaks? No problem, we can restore it in a snap.

WP gets way too much flak because garbage "web developers" deploy it, have no understanding of what they're doing security wise and never maintain/update files.

Worst offenders are those that randomly download theme files from web/torrent sites and oh look, backdoors embedded in a BASE64 eval - who would've thunk.

Docker is pretty sweet, some of my co-workers use it. We're going to be using it soon for provisioning and deploying Fuel controller nodes for new clusters, still in the testing phase.

All in the name of being easy. So easy any idiot setup a disaster waiting to happen :lol:

Many platforms have a front-end that supports all manner of things.

Depending on what the plan is, cost/time/effort become considerations.

Of course, you need a plan of action with goals/targets before moving towards things like sitemap design and what not. I haven't seen anything related to that so probably best we don't have movement.

Better to maintain status quo than dive in with a half baked plan :)

Still going to mock it though :lol:

When status quo is a boat where the plug flew off years ago, you might reconsider it :bleh2:

Even a revamped front page and some content for it would do this place well.
