SP3 Content Creation
Hi Everyone, As things draw nearer to the release of SP3 I thought it worth mentioning again our preferred ranges for custom KUIDs. I have copied and pasted Drucifer's latest post from the beta forum which is an update of my earlier post in this forum. If possible we would ask that as content creators you try to use these guidelines when possible. Whilst their use is not mandatory the new (SP3) Download Station web systems assume (In the absence of any information to the contrary) that you have used these guidelines and will file and label content accordingly. A more detailed post on how this will work will follow early next week and there will be a post later today giving an overview of how our support systems will be upgraded over the coming week. KUID Syntax: kuid <KUID:xxxxx:yyyyyy>
The xxxxx is your KUID Content Creator indentifier.
The yyyyy is the KUID Object identifier. Never repeat this identifier. Please use the following guideline for the object identifier characters. At present, only numerical characters can be use. Do not start an identifier with a zero. 1 to 9999 Locomotives (We would suggest using the locomotives road number if possible)
10000-14999 Passenger cars

Well The way i see it, I would say yes to allow for the large number of objects that will be available in 2 to 3 to 4 years time etc And allow for easier 'House keepin' of filesCatchya's(This poll and my views are strictly a product of my own mind and are in no way connected with Auran)
