The joys of hosted deployment

Tiran Kenja @ Friday, January 9th, 2009 ()

Since I don’t have my own server somewhere, I have been running stuff on Dreamhost for a while now. Most notably my LotRO site is hosted there. In fact one of the major reasons to implement it in Rails was that Dreamhost supports that and PHP, and I had gotten really tired of making stuff [...]

Updated available neighborhoods

Tiran Kenja @ Thursday, June 26th, 2008 ()

I just noticed that a new kinship just wrote their kinship hall in the text, and that the neighborhood wasn’t listed. So I took a round and found a bunch that had been added since I initially did the list. So the following has been added:

Housing Directory map – fixed

Tiran Kenja @ Thursday, May 22nd, 2008 ()

Turns out that Turbine simply changed the JavaScript they used to convert coordinates and figure out what tiles to show when. Lucky I just copied that file without modification. So I just had to replace it and it worked again.
Now settle down Turbine! It’s very annoying when you change something without us, who leeches of [...]

Housing Directory map is messed up

Tiran Kenja @ Monday, May 19th, 2008 ()

Just a small note to state that I noticed that the Hosing Directory map seems to have gone haywire. Looks like Turbine moved their map co-ordinates a bit. I’ll look into bringing my house locations into sync with it soon(tm).

Keeping up with the train – Lots of work for little features

Tiran Kenja @ Tuesday, January 22nd, 2008 ()

Ruby on Rails 2 has been out for a good month or two by now. And my hosting provider, Dreamhost, added the gems to support 2.0.2 just after New Years Eve, So obviously I had to upgrade the Laurelin Community Site.
I had been on it already before christmas. But motivation was lacking and it turned [...]

Now with maps and houses

Tiran Kenja @ Thursday, December 6th, 2007 ()

Well it’s been a while since I wrote anything here. My last post was about the initial release of the Unofficial Laurelin Community site. And look at how far it has come now.
Okay, so it is still ugly. But functionality-wise it has moved a far distance from back in July when it was just a [...]

The rise of a new site

Tiran Kenja @ Monday, July 2nd, 2007 ()

Since my time in Vanguard was very short I never really got around to play much with Ruby on Rails. I suppose I could continue to work on that project just for the hell of it. But I know myself well enough to know that for spare time projects I work better if I have [...]
