Discord is pretty dead, so how about we publicize some concepts.

This is still very early, and incomplete. This image is a concept, not an actual implementation. And yes, the mistakes are intentional; placeholders.

Thoughts, anyone?
Looks nice :) I know a lot of people love this software glad to see you working on it..
Thanks for the feedback; I am happy to hear it.

I don't particularly see much compliment outside of the thread, but I'm glad the community enjoys it and hope to bring it back by the end of the month.

if you can create an application that has only one function to save a list of current dc game servers dns to text file. this would be great for community and would allow others to host dns servers in case the master dns goes down. which of course like anything online, it will eventually go offline temporarily. nothing stays online 24/7 365 days a year without having some network hiccups from time to time. you can use the resource that pcwzrd created that lists all the dns entries for each online dc game.

for that matter any1 that knows howto code pls create this application...

thank you for not abandoning your dreampi companion software.

Windows9X, happy to hear you are making good progress. If you need testers/debuggers, I am willing and able! SMiTH's recommendation sounds great, also, and I support that idea for additional features. Let me know if you'd like me to help with testing.
