Talk:The All-Seeing Eye

Untitled

I really think we need to implement a new cathegory "game scanners" which includes all those nifty little programs like Gamespy 3D/Arcade, Kali, QTracker, XFire, XQF and many more. This is a little too much for me as I am mostly a newby when it comes to advanced wikimagic. But if someone else starts the cathegory and puts up some templates for the upper programs then I'll put in some information. Crass Spektakel 23:50, 22 October 2006 (UTC)

I got the same idea last night (but I called this a Game server browser), so I created a category for this last night. -Kuckzul 10:04, 3 November 2006 (UTC)

lost chances behind TAS

Should we go deeper into the lost chances behind TAS? I mean absolutly everybody I know has stated that TAS was (and partially still is) years ahead in usability of its competitors. Especially in the TAS-Forums people always suspected some corporated back-stabbing or other dirty deals.

One might do that but all in all I think it is a weak objective. Though the original author and the forum admin gave some basic insight it mostly comes down to this: XFire becomes popular, Yahoo Gaming suffers, Yahoo buys TAS, Yahoo sues XFire, both settle on something and TAS dies: [1] - everything else is pure speculation. One might dig deeper but with the upper limited knowledge I doubt we can write a fair conclussion Crass Spektakel 21:43, 18 February 2007 (UTC)

There wasn't any backstabbing or anything like that. The author got burnt out working on it, so he sold it. Yahoo didn't really know what to do with it so it stagnated and then died. XFire got sued because the guys who started it used stuff they worked on while at Yahoo (a couple of patents). No backstabbing, just a lot of mis-management. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ecks (talk • contribs) 05:59, 19 February 2007 (UTC).

Eye Installer no longer installs. This is really annoying, I used TASE to find IL-2 servers - what other similar software exists? Drutt (talk) 22:04, 19 October 2008 (UTC)

Just learned about it, damn Yahoo, Burn In Hell ! now that The All-Seeing Eyes was murdered by Yahoo, remain XFire (list of supported games / nb : IL-2 has ~900 "players") and the Gamespy_arcade (not my favorite tbh, it contains adware). (ps : HLSW is not compatible with IL-2 but works for many other games)

Ho, and now you can purchase IL-2 on Steam so many people bought it (like me), still don't know how Steam handle the multiplayer EDIT : Steam don't provide a server browser, only in-game IP :/ (will edit here later for more informations, too much holiday deal games to install and play :D). --90.60.155.136 (talk) 17:06, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

Hello, I found a workaround to this: althought the installer no longer works you can simply drag/drop the TASE folder from your old computer to the new one and it will still work. (If you would like a zip of this let me know and I can send it.) I will have a look at XFire though, thank you. I wouldn't use Gamespy Arcade if they paid me to. Drutt (talk) 13:41, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

my ten cents, use QTracker. It is very close to TAS handling, slightly more overloaded but also more powerful. Too Bad its article got deleted some time ago :-( Crass Spektakel (talk) 08:24, 26 February 2009 (UTC)
