We can ask for the database but i doubt it is going to happen If anybody wants to start manually migrating the forum let me know and i will do an install on my server and start handing out admin rights to those who volunteer (DO NOT VOLUNTEER UNLESS YOU UNDERSTAND THE NEAR INSURMOUNTABLE TASK AHEAD)

i am with you NAS. as i said i have a huge OSM/HOM collection that i´ve downloaded the past years and i would really like to share that to the other users. 🙂
DigitalWhiteByte ·
I would like to do, what software to use to ensure that waste really everything, including every osm, the wiki, then clone the whole site?
there will be a notice on the actual closing date of the site?

Hopefully it´s after they add VST 2.4 support... that should give us some time... 😈

Dont worry about that for now I will host a synthmaker section with sub forums at Tooshka
We set up Tooshka to give devs who had no web site a web site without having to use ad driven or other crappy web space The forum has never really gone live, but i will update it in the next few days with the relevant sections
I need to ask Oddson and Trog if they would be mods over there too
It must be understood though that this new forum/hangout will be as much about helping people move on, if that be to FS or SE or C++ or whatever, the idea i have right now is along side all the usual sub forums we would have a transition category, that would be for discussing porting to other apps and so on (Lets not forget here that SM is now DEAD, eventually a Windows update will come out and break the current version)
http://www.tooshka.com/
My main worry right now is getting the wealth of info here over to there (Back up apps are crap for forums, as i think people are starting to realise) when i said i was a big task i really wasn't kidding, 90% will have to be done manually 🙁
Nu Audio Science ·
On a secondary note, i never got round to telling you guys about Tooshka hehehe As you can see from TaylorFX site Tooshka lets devs who don't have/cant afford a web site have a web site with zero adds and no upload download restriction
So this is probably the ideal place to have the forum and if anybody needs a site for there plugins bam, all in the same place 😉

Good point. I just unchecked "auto update at startup" :P We will fight!

That's cool dude, I think it is time for me to move on anyway, I'm not into creating a clone of this place to be honest (Not even sure that is entirely legal and not something i want to mess with) Some of the oldschool guys i have chatted to are just moving on too and not that interested in moving elsewhere So i am going to wish you guys all the best in the future and i hope things pan out for you 😉
You can always contact us at Tooshka if you ever need webspace for your plugins without any ads or restrictions 😉

Are these things even indexed?
Nu Audio Science ·
Any site can be indexed, it is up to the dev to do that
As to the migration to Tooshka, doesn't look like it is going to happen, i haven't had any good feelings off any of the guys i Pmed (Not about the users, or the forum or the idea) people just want to move on and have little to do with SM anymore and i must say i think i am feeling the same way myself right now, so good luck guys and all the best 😉
MegaHurtz ·
No i mean did google even crawl these? Not out of disrespect or something, just that i have never seen a free host without restrictions. Way to good to be true if it is. Al the others are restricted as you might agree.
Nu Audio Science ·
Nope not too good to be true. Just something we decided to do. Dunno maybe we are stupid or something for doing it. Who knows haha

In fact id like to commend you on that for shure. Now im stuipid for being stuck on an annual fee 😀 With a hosting provider that cant get its own ssl certificate fixed.

They dont want the disgruntled user base of the original forum to hurt sales of DSProbotics. and frankly, the bugs relate to audio workstation use of the product. its a brill program it just fails to meet DAW standards smoothly except for little synths. i condone with the poor admins, but deleting 5 years of hints and tips from programmer to programmer is not care for your users.
They should accept that their product for some reason causes frustration in its users and liase with troggy to make it run smoothly in a DAW.
in the event that *someone* could copy all of the */forum/*, perhaps it would be good to archive it in this txt format. the entire forum could then fit on 100 megs. ill see with the admins about that */forum/* and will get back to you 😉 . . .

The whole shebang. Gone just like that. All it says is <please wait>, and nothing happens. Any help would be considered hot. I have SynthMaker installed on my work as well. Should I copy the modules from there?

IF outsim send me the complete backup and the database of the [old link] phpbb forum, i can: - Migrate the entire forum, incl. files, inside my (kunena based, joomla) Website www.synthmakers.net - Remove any "hot topic" unwanted from outsim - Continues to offer a free forum/website/wiki/download DB
Let me know if you read admin, in any case i will contact you directly.
Nu Audio Science ·
Again. somebody else pandering to these idiots "Will remove hot topics" Seriously guys, get over this rubbish, take the info that has already been downloaded and run with it, screw outsim, they screwed you

You're rigth. But i prefer to have a cleaned phpbb DB than nothing. 🙁

You will have nothing. This whole thing has been done to move the users here over to fs forum. One would assume this is being done to boost the visual value of that community with an eye to grab capital from investors or to bump the value of the company pre sale.
Either way outsim will do nothing to help its users continue elsewhere, that much is very clear
but hey im just an outsim shill apparently so ignore me lol
