GoUniverse (New KGS client)

[kubicle]

Hello,
As mentioned in the post below, is there a way to get a link to open a KGS game directly in GoUniverse?
I know this links are inside the client already but do they work from the outside?

Version 1.5.1

For all users of GoUniverse i've added a little surprise (it's related with "Future Go summit"). I'm not going to spoiler here, so check it by yourself and tell me what do you think about it.

It's a year later, and I just found your surprise I think it is fantastic! Any plans to add more books?

Ah, I never thought of clicking the little book icon before. Quite a nice surprise.

One comment: After a game ends, it would be nice if the chat kept functioning. As it is, I can't thank my opponent after a game, and if he or she thanks me, I don't see it.

Other than that, I do wonder if anyone still uses the java client. This one is just so much nicer.

Is there any plan to make GoUniverse HTML5-compliant, browser-independent, add-on-free, java-free, like shin.GoKGS.com ?

I will try again to study this problem. Earlier, I tried to repeat this error several times, but it never worked for me.

I had such a plan, but last year I had too little time. I hope this winter i will have more free time for further developing. Btw GOUniverse is already HTML5-compliant, browser-independent, java-free but not addon-free. The only difference btw GoU and Shin is what Shin has it's own server with runned ShinKGS on it. I was hoping that KGS will run own server for web-based clients and i wouldn't have to do it by my own, but it's seems like this aren't gonna happen.

That's nice, thanks.

Shin seems to be addon-free -- is this true ? ( maybe because it has its own server ? )

Very disappointing.

Interesting. It happens to me every time. Does it happen to others as well?

I needed help with setting it up which I emailed you the errors when I had it. I have no problem still doing it.

I know, but I'm not too familiar with this technology, and I had little time to look at it more deeply, so I could not help you

[Elom]

Just found this ( heh...).

Amazing .

I've tried to reproduce it several times, doesn't work for me. Can you describe the circumstance when this happens? Like, what was the result of the game (resign/time/fortfeit/scores), did the opponent left before you have tried to send a message, could you send a message before the end of the game, could you see the opponent messages after the end of the game, what was the type of the game (free/rated/simulation). Thank you.

If you need a web server for hosting Go Universe, I can provide it freely.
Just tell me.

I'd really appreciate it a lot if I could use GoUniverse on any device like my smartphone or tablet, too! I'd never use anything else again.

Oh, and I had that mistake in my last games, too, where after the game ends the new chat isn't displayed. Whatever you write is in the game file all right, but it is not displayed in the chat window - neither what you write yourself nor what your opponent has written. Can't say anything about chat during the game During the game it works perfectly fine, but it's something that always happens to me after the game. It would be great if that could be fixed because it looks really stupid if you simply ignore your opponent's chat... ^^;

One more edit: A warning would be nice maybe 2 minutes before you get disconnected. Is that possible?

And one last edit: A sound notification when your automatch game starts would be great, too, like in the Java client.

If you can make it work, kgs can also host it.
