eh? you can't use it?
I don't know how to use it.
Type in the box at the bottom and press enter to chat. Click to move. Click change avatar and choose an avatar to change your pony.
That's all.
Think you could add upside-down Derpy?

Would there be any possible way for us to add our own OCs to the game/chatroom?
Quote from: HerpyDooves on 2012 Oct 14, 21:19:18
Would there be any possible way for us to add our own OCs to the game/chatroom?
Thought about it, but I don't want to. Basically the way it is now, I just pass back and forth with the server little objects with info, look a bit like this:
{"nick": "ajf", "x": 200, "y": 600, "chat": "hello", "img": 6}Because the server can remember these little objects easily in memory, I can start and stop the server at will and nothing is lost. It doesn't consume any space. Now, I could embed in these little objects a full image... but that would take up a lot of bandwidth you see, slowing down and lagging everyone. Or, I could save them on the server, but then I'd have to delete them when someone leaves, and it's all a bit messy.
Also massive potential for abuse. So sorry, not happening.

Come on any time, if nothing's happening you can at least idle there.

It's something I want to do. Problem is for some places there is no good art I can find... I'll see what I can do about canterlot.
Thank you :P
How about this?

It's a program that you can use to let sprites of MLP:FiM characters walk around on your computer's screen and do silly things. It's pretty cute. I can't remember where I got it from, though.

Basically I needed to go via CloudFlare to keep the site up, keep it fast and reduce bandwidth bill (for the images). I forgot to push the update up to the site so that the actual connection for the chatroom bypassed it though! Sorry! D:
Works fine now :)
Got rid of sweet apple acres... sorry :<

Awww! I want it so bad! :(
Oh yeah:
- As mentioned previously, CloudFlare means this is handling load far better than before
- Yesterday, Wednesday 18th October, we had 995 visits
- We have so far had 3397 visits, with 2422 unique visitors
- We're now seeing up to 28 people in the chatroom at once! :D
And on new features:
- No more description text at the top, it's on a separate page. Also ponyplace title integrated into UI and page margins removed, now less screen space wastage
- Twilight's library added
- Did you know we have a Steam group? http://steamcommunity.com/groups/ponyplace
Also, I'll be going away until monday starting thursday night... 3 or 4 days of no moderation! I wonder what it will become! :O

Well, it means you can basically create your own rooms. They won't show up in the room list.

Yes.In pony creator , and even MLP:Online is adding him.They even have a full sprite sheet of him on their deviantart page.

HUGE UI CHANGES!
DISCORD! BIG CELESTIA! NIGHTMARE MOON! PHOTO FINISH!

Also swagtavia.
And we now have a Credits room! Accounts (well, renamed adding/removing/changing password)
And bits! Moderators can now give you them and take them away from you... and that's about it. More to come tommorow though!
Buy avatars with bits at the Boutique!
Yeah, only mane six and derpy are available by default now. But for a limited time only, you can get 3000 FREE bits in the Dungeon - enough to buy every available avatar! :D
WHOA! When I fly upside down as Derpy, I really feel derpy! lol THIS IS AMAZING!!!

Yeah, I added Sweet Apple Acres. Sure is purdy. Also, moved a lot of avatars to be sold in the relevant rooms (sweet apple acres for apple family, for example).

At the moment, there is no restriction on it, yeah. Sorry :(
I'll change that soon, I hope.
@ajf: Such is life i suppose, progression is all apart of the future! You've done an amazing job on the system, it is all very unique and i must admit quite amazing all together for that my friend i am rather impressed with it all. :P Though if a form of the name lyra does happen to appear, please inform me.. i feel odd lol

Quite a few people are making their usernames be the names of ponies from the show. People tend to do that kinda thing, which is why LoE is not gonna let people name their pony after any canon or copyrighted pony. :P
Hey, ajf, think you can add Blues Music now? We swear, he's a background pony, not a custom pony. Look here: http://mlp.wikia.com/wiki/Noteworthy
Blues Music is his fan-given name. Annoyingly enough, that wiki only tells you the Hasbro-given names of background ponies.
hey, er, maybe. Argh, I'm not sure I've actually done anything to pp for two days :/
Discordville! "Outside Library" and "Outside Sugarcube corner!", and Diamond Dogs!
Yeah. Lots of new stuff!

I just password protected a username you may like. I will pm you the username and password.
I should note that usernames are case sensitive...
BIG BIG UPDATE: HOUSES! Now you get your own private house, and you can buy one of seven beautiful backgrounds for it! :D
Plus, from now on, come on each day and you'll get a small amount of bits as a reward, since I love you all <3

There's so many avatars now I don't think you can buy them all in one go ;)
And don't be shy! Feel free to talk :)
You have a house now, that you can buy backgrounds for, btw...
Added ChocolateRain as a mod. And party's over now.
Congratulations, chocolaterain! and a shame really, no one is at the after party. O:

Some people will be annoyed, but unfortunately we've switched to a new accounts system. In the process I've discarded all old accounts, unfortunately, but I think this is for the better.

Such as myself, since now I cannot even enter the chatroom with the name The_Silent_Wolf :c Actually make that never because persona says: "There is no account under this email" when I clearly already signed up with Persona.
I created an account, and it says there's no account associated with my email address, even though I did the confirmation email.
After hearing about the new account system I ended up remaking my account for it.
You have to make a persona account then register that persona account to your email, with the activation link then log in with a nickname by pressing enter after typing the name then hit account in the upper right corner of the pony chat and register that nickname with your account.
Just hit login with persona first and you should get the option to make an account then use the steps mentioned above.
*starts buying favorite characters now* I have to look around for some of them again since old accounts were deleted.
You have to log in anonymously first, then click Account Settings and set that username to your account.
Yeah, it's a little confusing if you don't have an existing Persona account. I did clarify one of the error messages to try and help with this.
Basically, you need two things:
1) a Persona account
2) a ponyplace account
I don't cover the first. But the second you can't just get buy logging in with Persona at the login screen. Instead, you need to log in anonymously, and then go to the top-right, Account Settings, and click Create Account.
A little confusing, yeah. I think I'll need to change the text at the login screen so it's clearer.
Tab completion works properly now!
Instead of having to type someone's full name, just type the first few letters and then press tab, e.g., instead of typing out ChocolateRain, type Cho (or even C if they are the only person with that first letter) and press tab :)

I noticed lots of people have been having trouble creating accounts with the new login system, so I decided to make an image tutorial that you can link people if a verbal explanation doesn't work. Hopefully it is easy enough to follow. Here is the link.

That guide is only half done. You're supposed to log on anonymously again as the name you want to use after you have signed up for Persona, then click Account Settings again, then log in your Persona account. It will assign the name you're using to your Persona account.

No you aren't. Unless you close the tab or pop-up the first time, you should only need to log in anonymously once.

I can't remember if I closed the pop-up or not, but I had to log on anonymously again, click Account Settings, and then log on for it to associate my email with it.

Hmm. OK. I guess that happens if you create a persona account but don't finish logging in to pp, so you need to log in via persona again to make an account. (The Create Account button actually does a persona log in, and then creates a pp account)
Private messaging! Table chat layout!
Yup, PMs! :D
Use the console command
/msg, e.g.
/msg ajf Hello!Received PMs show up dark purple. :)
We also have a new chat layout! :D
I really like the PM functionality... :D Though the new chat keeps moving left and right at random. What is great though is the highlighting. :)

The moving about is annoying, but doesn't look like I can do much about it. Good you like the highlighting, though :)
I think you could fix that. Am too tired atm to think that through though. But as there is a limited length of usernames I bet one can do some good guesses for the width of the left part.
I can only set a fixed width though, not a maximum width :I
Currently there are 3 columns. The left with the timestamp is no problem. For the middle on I guess there is a upper bound on the width one could calculate or at least give a good guess for (see below). The one on the right has variable width depending on the messages. So I'd suggest having the first two columns with a fixed width and the third taking up the remaining space.
For the width of the middle column:
The longest string there would probably have a length of: username (18) + <> (2) + (mod) (5) + some spare chars as a buffer (5) = 30
I gave it a try and ended up with 245px width. As there are probably wider fonts I'd suggest 260px - 300px or something as a fixed width.
That's all well and good, but I still have to plan for a reasonable experience at an 800px width, thanks to a huge amount of Equestria Gaming Arcade traffic.
You mean a screen resolution of 800x600 or an IFrame where the site is placed in? If for the screen resolution you could reduce the font size for those as at that resolution smaller ones are still readable. This could be accomplished via e.g. media queries...

Nope, the iframe. I've asked more than once for them to resize it, I don't think they have yet.
Tried it out. There's already a problem with long messages containing wide characters in combination with a long username. You can easily get the text overflow. Perhaps a solution could be to get the width of the iframe / window, set a fixed width for the first two columns and let use the rest of the space. The last column could then be forced to break (at whitespaces or within the word if it's only one long word).
Oh yeah, quite a few things changed since I last posted here, so uh, yeah.
Just went on a 300 ponyquestions trivia spree because of Lyra_Heartstrings ovO

>.< er, that is, um, she has a great life!
Profiles! Private messaging! Friends list! Gala outfits!
Yep, big update!
- Profiles! Click on someone's name and you'll see their "profile", and be able to visit their house, send them a PM, go to the room they're in, add them as a friend...
- Friends list! You can add someone as a friend and then use the list to keep track of them. It's not reciprocal though - if you add them, you won't automatically appear on their list
- Private messaging updates! Now there's a little private message chat window that pops up, to replace the old /msg system.
- Gala outfits! Finally.
Room Thumbnails! New chat format!
Plus if a moderator kicks or bans someone, you'll see a message in the chat about it!
arrow key movement + ponyplace back up
Yes, pp is back up! The phc merger has been cancelled, sorry.
But, you can move about now with the arrow keys! Press TAB to jump to the chat box.
Avatar shrinker!
Now you can buy a magic shrinking potion from the Carousel Boutique!
Go there and buy the Avatar Shrinker for 200 bits. Then, open your Inventory (not your Avatar Inventory), and click "SHRINK AVATAR". Voila! You will become a teeny pony. If you want to go back, just click "GROW AVATAR". :)
Wow, this is awesome
ponyplace is now schnitzelVerse
ponyplace has been killed and replaced by schnitzelVerse, which is similar to ponyplace but more customisable. You can make your own rooms, wear your own avatars, etc.
http://schnitzelverse.ajf.me/
this thread is being locked now
After 8 months of being dead... ponyplace has been revived. And the awful features removed.
http://pp.ajf.me/ :D
Brilliant! :D
