New UGX Members

UGX has recently added two new members to the team:
HitmanVere - [UGX] Quality Assurance
JBird632 - [UGX] Documentation Writer

UGX is always growing and with the new addition of HitmanVere and myself, we would like to help the community - as well as the staff at UGX - to further improve on this amazing site. Hitman and I will be helping test Launcher as well as other applications for UGX and giving feedback on how to improve them so when they are released the community can enjoy them with no issues.

For those of you who would also like to apply for a position at UGX, you may apply for a position here: (or click on the "Careers" tab at the top)

While we are not obligated to notify you when the forum rules are updated, we have made two major changes which we want to make the community aware of. Due to recent behavior by certain members of the community we have chosen to add two rules to the forum regarding modifying other people's released maps/mods and releasing cheating tools. You can view the full rules here.

Here are the two new rules:

Quote from: Updated Forum Rules

11. Don't tweak other people's work without permission.
You may not upload a modification of another community member's work without their explicit permission. This includes making patches or updates to a map/mod, remakes, and any other act which involves uploading a modified version of something released on this website. If we receive a complaint that someone's content has been ripped off/modified without permission, the thread will be closed until the issue is resolved.

12. Don't release ways to cheat/tamper with other people's work without permission.
Tools & files used to circumvent any protected content on this site are prohibited. This includes cheat scripts, cheat engines, cheat utilities, and any other script/tool which is used to bypass cheat protection, copy protection, or beta protection for anything released on this site.

Hello UGX Community,

it has been now almost over a year since the last UGX Launcher update for Donors

.

[TL;DR version is at the bottom

]

It's time to share our plans for the upcoming months:

We will release a new UGXL version for donors around April / May.
The UGX Launcher is compared to the old one a complete overhaul.
Donors can already experience our new Homepage design. The new UI of the UGX Launcher will also have this nice blue touch.
There are too many changes to talk about them all but here is the version site of our development platform:
https://jira.ugx-mods.com/projects/UGXL/versions/10400
It's a massive changelog!

(https://jira.ugx-mods.com/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=10500&version=10400)

We also want to introduce our web frontend, UGX Play.
With UGX Play you can browse online through all maps and get a first impression of it.
Map reviews and their ratings for maps will be displayed,
as well as user rating and user installs (not available in donor release)
There are much more awesome features planned, which we introduce as we develop it further.

To help modders to submit their map to UGX Play, we will introduce the UGX MapPacker,
which will help you to pack your map properly. (including mod name check, etc.)

We are really excited about the donor release and can't wait to share what we have worked on for a while now.

TL;TR

UGX Launcher v1.0 donor release is planned in April / May to all UGX Donors.
After some more (donor) feedback, we will release the version to all users! (finally!)
We will introduce UGX Play (web fronted) to find and rate maps and the UGX MapPacker (for...
