We are currently upgrading the forums style theme to reflect the newer sites :)
So don't be alarmed if something goes funky.

Also, clear the boards cache and shift+f5 the page to get the changes... If you see no difference then clear the browser cache :)

It would be great if you could implement a responsive theme, so we can browse stuff also in the bathroom. :D

So, with the release of v1.0 (hopefully on Steam!?) new users are going to come along (I'm pretty new myself).

The documentation page is very sparse at this point... which begs the question: What is the *best* path for new users at this point?

And by this I mean, what specific manual pages to read, what videos to watch (making sure to avoid obsolete information), etc.

Thanks!

The documentation is currently been rewritten, with all of the updates and changes quite a lot of it has to be changed.

StarFire is currently rewriting it so maybe she could enlighten you a bit more on the subject

Hi Ryder, I am currently revamping the documentation, each day new content is being added.

To help you getting started I will compile a page of Gen2/V1.0 relevant videos these should help you get the ball rolling. ;)

Sad news today, on 29th march, the person we were caring for sadly passed away. We were caring for them 24/7 for 11 month which is why the development of skyline took a break.

Once we have dealt and come to terms with the emotional and physical damage and have took adequate amount of time to heal, we will be jumping back at the engine to make it a current commercial product. So please bear with us and hopefully before you know it, skyline development will be back in action.

Thanks for your patience and not long until skyline comes back from hiatus...
