The server that hosts BitWorld (and a number of other projects) is currently experiencing some problems, but should be back in the not too distant future.

Sjakie, you should really start hanging out in #amigaexotic

might be a dumb question, but, just, what is "demobas" ?
Is there an URL somewhere ?

It's 'Amiga Demobase' actually

Have a look here : http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=44444

I did and the question remains : what is demobas ?
A database, ok, what format, how is it fed, why Kestra must be online, etc. I don't plan to download a 136Mb archive just to know what it is

Just curious is all. Won't bother you with that.

Hi Asle,

Demobase Amiga uses the Gamebase frontend to play Amiga Demos!
Its about 4gb and contains about 18000 entries of which Approx
6000 demos are playable(seeable).

So just see it as a HUGE database to see Amiga demos.

I am still working on it and there will be Some WIP info on it very soon.

@TCD,

I have tried to use the Irc Link from the dutch servers,not working here,cannot connect to server,errr

Regards

Will check it later mate

Never tried to get on IRCnet yet, but guess it isn't that hard. Which IRC client do you use? If you use FireFox you could use Chatzilla.

sjakie43 · 02 June 2010, 22:04

Hi TCD,

I am using Mirc atm...not familiar with it tho

Bitworld is back btw !

And Bitworld is OFFLINE again....

Back now, but there may well will be more downtime. Our external HD has been causing problems and I need it replaced (or at least the cabling/enclosure). (And the failure last week was another problem).

sjakie43 · 08 June 2010, 22:07

Thanx for the info Buzz.

I hope there will be no more probs for you after that...

I really depend on Bitworld for Demobase Amiga you know

Regards Sjakie43

That's where I have a problem.

Hi

First, sorry to raise this this late.
Ok, how do you use Bitworld ? I'm asking because I spend quite some time on Kestra, by renaming, updating, changing things, etc. (and I'm far from alone doing this). I don't see where you can be accurate.
