Bright Game Panel / Blog: Recent posts

Hello everybody ! :)

First of all, I want to simply apologize. I apologize for being away the last 3 months. I'm aware that people have a lot of questions for me... I will try to answer some of them here in this blog article

So, why are you not here when you are required, Warhawk3407 ?

Well... The main answer is simple : I don't have the time to do everything I want ! I'm studying at the University of Caen in France, in "Networking and Telecommunications" (second year). I have approximately 36 hours of courses per week from Monday to Friday. Then, add 1h30 per day for the transport. When I'm back, I have to study and do my homework (like a good boy), relax, eat, sleep, rave... So, when I come back to home after my courses, I'm not very enjoyed by the idea of programming large pieces of code for BGPanel. I prefer to watch the last episode of the Walking Dead, Person of Interest or Game of Thrones... I hope you will understand this. I think I don't have to highlight the fact that I have continuous exams, throughout the year and I have to prepare them. Of course, I get time to see my friends, to party, or simply to relax my eyes (otherwise I should be dead ).
Along to this, at school, we have to think, plan, create and test our "final project of studies".

To put in a nutshell, we have to build a large "enterprise grade" network in order to connect multiples sites (in different towns) to each of them. We have to offer services such as VOIP calls, emails, etc. Each people of the class is attributed a task from the specifications given by our teachers. Of course we have a management team, that have to coordinate our mates in order to meet all the requirements of the specifications.

My teachers decided that I should run the project as the "Project Leader".

This project is dispatched on the whole school year. We have milestones to reach each months. As the leader, I have to coordinate the different services inside the project, help my mates on a technical aspect as well as write reports, Gantt charts...

Actually, the last free minutes I could get are swallowed by my school project.

So yes, my main problem is the time. It is hard for me to do everything in 24H with a reasonable amount of time reserved for sleeping. Bgpanel was the first impacted by this...

What about BGPanel V2 ?

Hello everybody,

Behind those words picked from the "Command & Conquer" video game (youtube), I want to say that from now, and for as long as possible, I'm back into into the adventure of Bright Game Panel !

First, I apologize for this very long vacation from the BGPanel network and development. Linking social life, studies, computing, gaming and personal projects like BGPanel was very difficult for me the last months. That's why I decided to have a break on BGPanel and gaming. However, I remember that I said a friend (yes it is you super_g2 ) that I will never give up this project until this one will be finished.

A few days ago, I received a mail from Paypal, notifying me that I have just received a Donation of an amount of 100€ by Jean-Claude Dubois (much thanks ). When I read the mail, I realised that I created something cool and useful not only for me, but for a lot of people over the world. I had a brain wave : I waited too much for the time, now I will catch him directly in order to work on Bright Game Panel !

You, users, keep supporting me by feedbacks, donations or directly via Twitter. Developers, save my time by giving me some useful piece of code ! Just pick a task from the BTS or develop something you like, your own bright idea for BGPanel !

Once more, please, forgive me for not spending as much time as I should on this project.

Thank you everybody for keeping an interest in BGPanel.

Best Regards,
Nikita Rousseau, a.k.a Warhawk3407 ... read more

Hello everybody ;)

So after weeks of non-progress regarding bright game panel, I would like first say that I'm sorry for so much delays about the development. I passed my exams at the end of June, then I took some holidays near sea and finally, I had a medical operation. To be honest, time went out.

However, I'm now free to work on my little baby called Bright Game Panel . This is the time for me to go back into Bright Game Panel business

I'm surprised to see more and more people connected with me about BGPanel, I will very pleased to work with you guys, to make this project more and more awesome !

For the following days, here are my plans :
- FlySpray BTS of the project
- Push on Github the last changes
- Implement User Requests and Locale Files
- Implement Game Installer (Warhawk3407)
- Much more...

Please stay tuned ! More news in the next days :-P ... read more

After some users has experienced errors with SSH, I decided to create a tool in order to help users to identify where the error come from.

If you have go the famous error "Connection Error\! Unable to connect to box with SSH.", this is for you \!

I hope it will help understanding what is the cause of your error, is it a wrong de-cyphered password, an error while cyphering password or an "Empty" passphrase... Etc.
