BioWare Continuity Network (BCN) - Preserving the BSN

Just a small update. Sorry I've been uber busy lately as the end of term is coming up and have a lot of work coming my way.

 

I have received a few responses from authors, roughly 50/50 as others have said. Most of the responses have also given the go ahead to upload onto the Nexus under BCN terms and conditions. I will most likely do this myself when I can find the opportunity to do so. For the most part they seem to be 'experimental' or 'first-time' projects although they all work and seem pretty useful from at least a resources point of view.

 

I will put aside some time in the next couple of days to try get through a few more pages, however if there are any other more pressing things to do then I am happy to do what is needed so long as I know how :smile:

 

Glad to be part of the team and will be willing to help do whatever need be even after the apparent deadline... btw have we had 'official' confirmation that everything will actually go dark after the 25th?

Thank you sunshine! You have found authors that I could not find and that is a HUGE plus!!

 

Note for inventory: There are projects with no files but have uploaded valid files to Nexus or other verifiable websites. When you find these files go to the Complete ID Project Tab, write out the file name by author and note in the next tab (completed) "no files" and in the Note section put a link to the file. There is a tab already that shows "to do" so it is safe to say "no files" rather than "yes" or "no" to completed :smile:

BSN isn't going dark on the 25th; just the forum is. BioWare confirmed that prior to the forums going read-only.

 

Shortly after the forums went read-only BW made a change to the BSN notification message upon log in, which states they will be phasing out the site. They just give no timeline. We also have no idea how much notice they will give the community prior to its removal.

I believe we're pretty much done. I'm only coming across empty projects, now. I'll continue for a while, but I see no reason to go to the end if it's only going to be like that. We may miss a few projects that have no files, but only links to other hosts, but is it really a big deal ?

Alright. If it doesn't add too much work, think of adding the prefix "invalid" to empty projects' name, in the Complete Project ID List. That way my table is updated correctly, to only show projects that haven't been inventorized, for a last double check before calling it done.

 

I can also do it, if you send me your spreadsheet once done :smile:.

No, we should inventory the ones that are valid if their files are on Nexus or another verified website. It is only invalid when they are spam files or jpg downloads and the like :)

 

I will ahem, attempt to send you this but I need to translate it first >.> and probably clean it up... it is extremely messy lol
