Hardly. Garry's Mod is the only thing any real profit has been made from, and that's released by Team Garry, not Facepunch Studios. AFAIK the only thing released by Facepunch Studios has been Facewound, and that's free.

But you do know that Garry has founded Facepunch Studios as a company together with Gwilty and they're searching for office space at the moment, right?
Will the Facepunch OS be able to be a live cd also? Would be nice if this was included

No, I hadn't heard that. Must have happened when I was gone?
Will be available as a live CD.
And im not too fussed about using the FP logo, if anything i would avoid it. Just because this distro is being developed by community members, doesnt mean we need to use the forum logo.

We could try and ask garry? I'd expect he'd like it, so long as it looked quite professional. I sure would anyway.
I honestly don't give a shit about the Facepunch logo being in it, but I just don't like the way the eyes look.

Garry hates Linux with a passion.

But I don't think he ever gave a shit about some "official" Facepunch *something*

Well look. Nobody will stop you from presenting us a usable improved version. So far it seems like i'm the only one actually doing something whole for the graphics. At the moment i can't really do a lot since i'm busy with school, my PS is still borked and i'm involved in important projects.
I never said the previous submission wasn't usable or improved. My [i]only[/i] complaint is the way the eyes look. They look almost italicized. I want [b]X[/b], not [i]X[/i].
Purged inactive members from the dev list.
@ButtsexV2 - could you give us a mock up example? Everything is open to critisism and development.
Well, i do agree on the italic thing. Kinda looks too 90s. But then again it would look worse when all straight.
Can you guys fix the 2038 bug? make it 64bit maybe?

Already fixed on 64bit systems.

Wait is this project still alive?
I've missed out big time

Anyway, if this project still needs a website, I'd be willing to provide some webspace along with a subdomain.
Can't host iso's though, only have a 10GB/month transfer limit on my website.
So. How much has this gone forward since the last time I asked?

When did you last check? This is your first post in this thread as far as i can tell.
In general, not very far. Couple of bugs fixed, working on the installer and disk image now.
I'd be surprised if Birkett didn't have his own server, but if you need webspace I'll happily provide the use of my server.

Check OP, we have 4 mirrors at the moment. But a 5th one's cool.
Will be looking into adding a few more mirrors before releasing the first build.
And yes, i have. Just a crap upload speed =/
I just bought a website.
Host provides unlimited sub-domains, ftp accounts, space and bandwidth.
So I am very happy to be a 6th Mirror. :smile:

You serious? Also, we'll need PHP and Mysql probably.
[QUOTE=Tu154M;18403161]You serious? Also, we'll need PHP and Mysql probably.[/QUOTE]
Yes (if you mean the hosting). And more stuff that I'm not quite able to understand and use (programming languages Perl and Ruby, etc). I do indeed have MySQL and php.
Downloading it now... first two mirrors are dead though...
There's no such thing as unlimited storage and bandwidth, you WILL hit a limit sometime. You probably have a shit slow connection or your provider will try kicking you off if you overuse it.
Those offers aren't good for download sites, trust me.
Funny thing is Dr. Taxi, their ToS makes it seem like a really crappy service, although their support answer a lot of questions and reveal just how wonderful it really is. And since its OpenSource and not copyrighted material I can host it fine.
[quote=Quotes from Host]
While it may sound unrealistic - it's true. With {snip} you receive unlimited disk space and bandwidth - we guarantee it.
Our internet service provider is giving us dedicated and unmetered 100 mpbs line on each server, so we can offer unlimited bandwidth for you too! Please also note that all files you make available for download must be legal and you must have full permission to distribute them.
... all the files you store on your account must be legal.[/quote]
Believe me now?

Is there any specific reason you're disclosing your wonder-host's name? Also, unlimited space is simply not possible.

1. So I'm not considered advertising in anyway, although PM me if you want to know it.
2. They get space [b]real[/b] cheap.

And go back on-topic please. :3:
My dedi has a full LAMP set up installed, it should work fine though I won't make any guarentees for my handy work. It's hosted with Racksrv so it should be fast enough for your needs!
As for the mirror, definitely shouldn't be any problem to provide. I'm presuming I can just wget it to my server from an existing mirror and give a link to the file?
