0.13, no more mods on the forum ?

Post by binbinhfr »

I just see the new changes in mod's forum presentation :
so no more postings of 0.13 mods in the forum ?
Modders are supposed to post and discuss about their mods only on the portal ?

The change is quite abrupt.
The interface is not very convenient for the moment to post a complex description with embedded pictures.

Please check my try in https://mods.factorio.com/mods/binbinhf ... iveRunning

I would say keep the mods on the forum, but additionally require mod portal links so that people can auto update and stuff like that.

Also, another "Outdated" subforum like the <=0.11.xx subforum for 0.12.xx would be nice to sort out on the forum the updated mods from the not updated ones.

Well for the moment, if you look closer, there is no more place to post a 0.13 mod in the forum... You can just continue the discussion on 0.12 or 0.11 mods...

And in the mod portal, discussions do not have the flexibility of the forum : it does not seem that you can receive notifications, or basic user can upload images to illustrate a bug, etc...

edit : Images uploaded in the gallery seems truncated. How can we post them in full size ?

I think it's to fast going from perfectly working forum to mod portal who still needs allot work
I think it would be best to make temporary 0.13 forum and then mod portal is a bit more polished just lock or even delete 0.13 forum because it will not be necessary anymore
