Wick Editor - Status Update (sorta)

Wick in its current state is, and has been, dormant, as I am sure everyone knows by now. But roughly a week ago, we three moderators (me, Jovanny, and Hamzah_Al_Ani) had a quick meeting talking about what we can do with Wick moving forward.

We haven’t started taking any action since then, all we did was bounce a couple of ideas off each other. No promises on anything, but we are hoping to get Wick Editor back on its feet at some point. (I’m being intentionally vague because even I don’t really know how this will go yet. We’re all just hoping basically.)

That’s all for now, thanks everyone for sticking around.

I obviously don’t know the plan, and I don’t know how much you can do with Wick it self, But maybe you could restructure the forums a bit to be more open for non wick content. That way developers and animators from other places could meet up in this amazing community, or return to show off there new work since they left

Happy new year from the Wick moderation team! I’ve got a small new update. (You know it’s serious when I type with proper grammar…)

Anyway, I don’t want to make any giant promises, but we have been gradually working on a fork of Wick Editor. Don’t expect any rapid changes though, since the codebase is ridiculously big and it’s basically impossible for us to read through all the code and understand absolutely everything like the back of our hand.

We do not have a releasable version of this fork, but we have made changes. And by changes, I mean basically one change, which is that HTML tab titles are now the project name instead of just “Loading…”. We’re working on it, I swear, it just takes forever to understand new code.

We are still busy people, so you can probably guess that we’re not getting anything done during most of the year. But for the time being, if you want to list some suggestions for things to add to the fork, by all means go ahead.

Again, not trying to over-promise here, but hopefully this gets you excited about what may come in the future.
