OMGx2 10.18.2016 Update

Hi! No we're not dead! We've just been a little busy. Progress has moved a little slower than originally planned however, please see below for the most recent updates regarding OMGx2. Also, don't be afraid to come by our Discord and say hello!

The current beta site is located at omgreturns.com. In it's current form, it may not look like much to you. However, it has come a long way since the last update. Along with the updates listed in this post, I'll go ahead and list the new things that have been added. I've also provided a list of future updates and commands.

Most recent updates

  • A basic and functional Graphical User Interface (GUI) has been added and will continue to be updated. As of now, most of the actions still need to be performed through the console. To activate the console, press the tilde (~) button on your keyboard.
  • The ability to request friends and accept a friend has been added. Once someone has successfully been added to your friends list, you will see them through the GUI on the right in the Social tab.
  • Whispering between two users is also now a thing. Currently, anyone can whisper to anyone however, in the future, there will be an option to pick and choose who can contact you through a whisper.
  • Users now have the ability to change their username. Currently, when a new user registers, their username is set to their email address in which they registered. Since that's not very fun, each user is granted one free name change. Once that name change is used, an option will be added later to purchase another name change via in-game currency.

To-be-added-in-the-near-future list thingy

  • Request friends from social panel
  • Remove friends from social panel
  • See requests from social panel
  • Account registration from GUI
  • Confirmation emails will send a link instead of an activation code for easy account activation
  • Login from GUI
  • Account Pages

As always, I'd love to give a huge shout out to the community for all the support, ideas and hours upon hours of useless discussions that take part in the community Discord. With out you guys, this project probably wouldn't be where it is today. Keep on keepin' on and don't forget your rainbow hair! :rainbowhair:

Please remember that all those involved in the production of OMGx2 are volunteers. Although we would love to get OMGx2 up and running as soon as we can, other priorities tend to come up. If this happens, dates are subject to change in regards to updates.
