Private Is v26 still appreciated?

[Jam32]

Just a question of curiosity

Is the beautiful v26 and such versions of that era still appreciated or is it a somewhat poor market?

I dont see many hotels if any these days running older versions, they all seem to be the same old poop!!

Ive spent a while thinking at having a dabble once more in the retro scene, bring back the old school, not for money but for a good trip down memory lane :

Honestly I don't really see anyone appreciating the greatness of the glorious v26. I would love to see something unique in the v26 area since there was so much you could do with so much ease back then. :

Your problem is you have the same old emulator, which is Holograph and it's alright, but not quite there. Plus users don't want to install Shockwave. They might get confused and think you're trying to install a virus on their computer lol.

I did quickly knock up a little fuckabout server, was awesome to see the hand again!!
However I was soon reminded of the hassle and bugs involved lol

Maybe its time to move on and have a dabble at r63b!

Wish we would be able to obtain all the packets. I'd totally write an server. With all I mean really all and not the ones to make the basic functions to work.

Darn ccts.

Hablog Emulator (v28 or v35 i think) was the most stable and had games and stuff coded (BB/WS/SS was almost finished). I'll see if I can dig out my old hard drive from back then and speak to Hebbo (if hes still around, idk) about giving it out.

Well I just want to have it all so everything will be implemented the proper way. I've seen a lot of emulators using packets for the wrong intentions even though the outcomes are the same.

I would love to build a v26 emulator, but since the community is just focussing on getting the newest versions I'm not starting a development. I think the developers and old school people here would love to see a fully working v26 emulator, but most of the regular users, who are here to find retros or download releases, have never experienced the old habbo retro scene, because they are around 13/14 years old.

@Roper found anything yet?

I personally appreciate all versions of Habbo, although each revision/version has their flaws when you look back onto it.. I just wish that there was more interest in all versions and aspects of Habbo; just seems asif everyone's loosing interest.

I suppose people are loosing interest mainly because of the downhill fall of Habbo itself, I mean i wouldnt of played current day habbo as a kid, its completely poop.

Everything has been made overly complicated.

Furniture used to be simple and straight forward. Now they are full of texture and details which doesn't give the same feeling as the old furniture used to do when you saw them for the first time.

A few months ago I've saw an Habbo v26 with about 15 users onlines. I almost cried. Yes, you still can do a appreciated v26, but you gotta add features to it, a few commands, even newer furnis.

You must be registered to see links

- That's the stable build (sadly cant find the source anymore) but yeah it's the V26 one

 

[The General]

Will download when I get home, is it written in C#? If so it can be decompiled.

I don't think so, it's also flatfile
I'll look for the source anyhow.

 

[The General]

Ah it's visual basic or something along those lines, not C#.

Bummer.

Hablog was one of the more "completed" variants of the v26 version, but sadly as you know its in Visual Basic.

You can feel free to browse through my old released sources which were your more "above" average v26 emulators it contained Pet Stats etc. Also Chris aka Cecer1 did work on Battleball filling (Create a solid square in Battleball and it would fill it in etc.) that was the only missing feature to Battleball I believe alongside with Powerups (Maybe?) So if you snoop around you should be able to create something decent.

I would definitely play a v26 hotel for the nostalgia.

I LOVE v26. (think I love even more because I never made it work)
Loved spend a few hours playing Habbok.
The problem with me today is that I can't stand Habbo anymore. Not even the versions I love.
All left is the memory of the great times I had.
