Matrix / Talonsoft CS / Conflict and status

[Copper]

As far as I know Jason has replied and fixed talonsoft/matrix compatibility issues, I do believe the solution is the Talonsoft user has to begin the scenario.

In regards to sorting thru the DB for scenarios to play, matrix scenarios are hopefully going to be designated by a comment in their description box. this remains to be seen as effective or bust.
As we know PB1 Scenarios are marked with a **, this works fine so far I am assuming. so perhaps the matrix ones can also be adopted to the ** listing as the PB scenarios are all included in matrix version anyways.

Who did you write to concerning your questions and suggestions? I try to reply to everyone who writes me since I am currently the only senior staff person residing at the club for the time being. Jim is in Iraq, Paul has went AWOL, I might not get back to you for a few days but I do try.

No separate ladder is in the foreseeable future, matrix is a continuance of TS, albeit a supported version as well. I understand financial issues being a stumbling block, but that is no reason to feel like a second hander here, we all are the same group, just some of us have a newer version to tinker with.
The only thing that is required of TS users is a bit more time to review their scenarios choices in the DB, prior to a game session, to ensure it's a TS version.

the custodians inputting scenario data is simply a safe guard until we can sort out the DB in the near future. it is a mess right now with multiples and duplicates everywhere. Our priority however is getting the membership DB sorted properly it is in worse shape due tho the forums having a separate DB and users from 1 are not sharing the same ID numbers from the other. thus when a user is booted from bootcamp for not playing, his forum ID remains unless we go and manually remove it, certainly a headache when time is of essence.

the scenario adding is still open to all it's just caution is advised to NOT make a matrix listing OR use the sub game listings,simply use EF2 WF or RS and this makes things far more easier to sort later when we have the time to revamp the area.
