Hello furcadians! :3

Just letting everyone know that there is an alternative to all the mainstream proxies; Kapow! Proxy
I've been working hard on it since early april, and think its time to try and get people to use it.

Also, I need help finding all the bugs in it. So if you see any, please don't hesitate to whisper me!
I'll probably be adding a list of known bugs on the site some time soon.

http://www.kapow.ca.kz/


I would rather not post my email here, but if you would like to contact me outside of fucadia, send me a PM.

Wonderful creation. I have switched over to this now. Yey!

If you need suggestions on new things to add, I suggest a text filter, so if I were to say something like omgfilter1, it would make me say something different. (if that made sense)

Also, I think that the console shouldn't disconnect you from Furc if you hit the [X].

Ooh, thats a good idea. I'll add that to my to-do list! :3
And yeah, the console disconnection thing is something I need to think about. Its because the console is the main part of the program, and when it is closed, the whole program closes. I'll probably solve this when I change the proxy around to support multiple alts per instance

Adding some screenshots to the site might help too.

I really like your movement comments. How do you change to specific wings without using a proxy? (I don't like to cycle through my wings.)

There are a few spelling errors. Let me know if you're interested, and I will spell check for you.

BUGS

1. %autoclone does not seem to work when others speak. It works when I speak, but it puts "myspeech'>" in front of my name. Also, it changes my Vest color to red in my specitag.
2. When I use %clone, I see a Gryffe or kiwi specitag, but everyone else sees the correct specitag. Also, it changes my Vest color to red in my specitag.

GENERAL INTERFACE SUGGESTIONS

1. Don't auto-close console, or make it close to the system tray.
2. Whisper center for whispers, with a tab for each player who whispers you.
3. Separate window for Beekin chat channels.
4. Dream locator.
5. %log displays an ongoing log that is constantly up-to-date (similar to Mreow! Proxy's %console)
6. Add sound triggers for whispers and certain text displayed in the client window. (For example, if the word "cookie" appears on the screen, it would play a sound on my hard drive.)
7. %winamp displays current Winamp song. (Just once, the way Mreow! Proxy worked.)

CLONING SUGGESTIONS

1. Add %clone name to clone specific players whose colors are in your cache.
2. Add cloning options that allow you to apply colors, species, and/or gender. (Currently, you automatically apply everything.)

There are individual buttons for wings after the updates, so I would assume individual commands also. The different buttons are just hidden by default. To see them open the default skin in the skin editor and look through the list of buttons for Buttons.BatWings or something like that and change it to visible.

Yeah, I'll probably be writing some help documentation on the site soon.


And wow Kamose.. Thats a lot of suggestions!

BUGS:
1. Autoclone only works for silver sponsors. Also, that feature was updated today. make sure you have the latest version (If you do, I'll look into fixing it)
2. Aware of that one as well, but I'm not quite sure how to fix it yet. Its on my to-do list

GENERAL INTERFACE SUGGESTIONS:
1. You can change that in the options. I'm planning on adding a system tray icon, though.
2. On my to-do list already
3. Would be on my to-do list, but I'm not a beekin, so I have no way of getting the packets from beekin chats.
4. On my to-do list already
5. Thats a good idea, I'll add that to my list
6. On my to-do list already
7. Adding that tonight

CLONING SUGGESTIONS:
1. On my to-do list already
2. Another good idea, I'll see if I can work on that one


As I assume you were, I was a fan of Mreow proxy. Thats why I made this one, and thats also why most of the things you suggested were already on my list.

Said list should be posted somewhere online so people can view it, shouldn't it?

I went to download it and it wouldnt work Im really sad now...

I am a Silver Sponsor, and I have the latest version. It seems to work when I speak but not when anyone else speaks.

Hmm, thats odd.. Alright, I'll look into it

Edit: Ah yes, I see what you mean.. It was working right before I released it today, I dunno whats wrong.
I'll work on it tonight, hopefully have it fixed by tomorrow.

Second edit: Oh and about my spelling errors, which ones do you mean? Spell checking would be nice

Thanks! That makes things so much easier.

Thanks! These are exactly the commands I was looking for. (I tried typing "wings" in the specific wing commands, but that does not work.) I have added these commands to my List of Commands.

An important feature (that Mreow proxy had and I'm a HUUGE fan of) is a seperate whisper window that popped up when someone whispered you. Also, I really liked the tabbed whisper that Mreow had. Whatever happened to Mreow proxy anyway? IS it going to be updated or is it perminately down now?

I dont remember who I heard it from, but I think rey is just waiting for them to do the new colour format. =\

Here's a suggestion I just thought of! Today when I logged on using Kapow!, it seems to only let me log one alt on. When an alt is logged on, the 'connect' just goes grey and dosen't let you.
That'd be a good feature to add, if it's not already on your to do list.

I tried Kapow. It's brilliant!

One suggestion I have is probably trying to get it to where you don't have to change the port to 55300? I enjoyed the proxy, but after every time I logged off after 5am FST I had to change the port back to 55300 before being able to log on using the proxy, I switched back to DP just because it's easier to log on with. I also had trouble when I'd go to the main maps, it wouldn't load them. I could see the dreams, but no furres or sometimes I could see the furres and a few dreams, but not all and I could never see myself. I always had to join the bots or use dream links to go to the dreams I usually haunt.

Uhh... What? You seem to be using an old version..
Cause manual proxy editing hasn't been needed for a while. o_O;

My Kapow! Proxy exploded. x.x; I try to log on, and sometimes it won't work, or I don't see people, or dream names won't appear. Please tell me it's just me and it can be fixed. I can't stand Dog Proxy and I can't get Furnarchy to work. x.x;
