The forums are also accessible at the old address, as it will redirect to the new address. Be sure to request a new password, or you won't be able to log in.

TKZ Down posted by Spyder on February 15th, 2007

TKZ is currently down due to some database problems. Xavier doesn't know the extent of the problems, nor does he have any idea at this time when the site will be back up, and because he's working full time now doing non-TKZ related web development, it could be some time before the site is restored. Please be patient, and try not to hit the refresh button over and over again for more than 5 minutes at a time. Hopefully things will be back to normal sooner rather than later.

Uploading games to Mystic Software posted by Spyder on May 24th, 2006

Lately we've had people trying to upload games using the Submit tool. Please do not try to upload games this way. It is only for resources listed in the "Category" drop down box. Games should always be uploaded using the instructions available on the "Hosting" page. If you can't get in touch with me on the MS forums, you can try PMing me at The TKZ. Also, if you are putting your game in your game profile on TKZ, please do not link directly to files hosted here on Mystic Software. You may link to your games page, but not to the game itself. If you try and link directly to the file, you may have your submission rejected by TKZ. If you continue to try and link directly to the file, your game may be removed from the MS server altogether.

Happy Birthday! posted by Spyder on February 20th, 2006

Hey, folks. Just wanted to thank the die hard MS-er's who still find the occasion to submit new material to the site, even through it sometimes takes us a few months to get to it. (Heh...) A quick note on RPG Code submissions. Almost everything we get is in the old TK2 format. This is fine, but TK3 is really looking polished nowadays in terms of bugs and stability, so let's start seeing some more TK3 specific programs!

RPGToolkit 3.06 Released posted by Spyder on April 5th, 2005

Source - The Toolkit Zone I am pleased to announce the arrivial of the bugfix only release, which addresses a whole array of issues in the editor and engine that have plagued users in recent versions. So what can you expect fixed in this release? You can find a complete list here. This is the first release to also be fully documented and supported by [TKZ's] brand new and extensive online help site which you can find here. A big thank you to Colin and Delano who did the all the development work this time around, they agreed to stick to the bugfix ethos from day one and produced an amazing number of fixes. Also thanks should go to Occasionally Correct for his writing skills in the new references and help files. This was the first release to publicly release periodic builds to help test the development, but in the last two or three weeks we've also had some dedicated behind-the-scenes guys using their projects to push the Toolkit to the limit and expose any problems. These guys, with thanks going to them, are; Ashe, Caliber Mengsk, Codester, Khin, oblivious_casualty, RDemusX and Serge. Some issues still remain that were far too complex and/or time consuming for this release, such as some of the Win9x problems. But the developers are already thinking ahead on how to set about fixing these in future releases - they haven't been ignored! If you encounter any problems when installing, please check out this article which has some relevant information. Well, I won't delay any further. You can get the brand new Toolkit release by clicking here.

Mystic Software website suspended. posted by Spyder on April 1st, 2005

I've got to admit, RackHost (MS' hosting provider) pulled a good one. When I first loaded up the site today (it's my homepage) and it said that the website was suspended for illegal practices, I immidiately started wondering which hosted site was hosting either porn or warez. Of course before I could come up with any names, the April Fools box came up, and I was immidiately relieved =P. Anyways, congrats to RackHost for a job well done =) Edit: Whoops! Apparently it wasn't RackHost at all! Our very own co-webmaster Matt72186 is the artist that pulled this one off. Nice job Matt =P

Mansions of the Moon posted by Spyder on March 22nd, 2005

Happy New Year everyone! 2004 sure was an interesting one, if not anything else. I'm looking forward to 2005 though. I'm sure some good things will happen to the RPG Toolkit, and in turn, the TK community as a whole. To start the year off, Cyrus Martin will finally be releasing his long awaited novel "Deceit & Conquest Vol. 1: Seor". Although a final release date has not been confirmed, Mystic Software has conducted an interview with Mr. Martin for the communities interest, and to support one of the select few that take their projects outside the walls of our little community. Please support Cyrus by visiting Tarnished Heart Films and the D&C: Seor websites, and purchasing his novel, or any of his other works. Read the interview? Bought the book? Then check out Teen Link's new game, "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire". It's in the games section.

The server transfer is finally complete, and most files and services should be working. If you have any trouble logging into your site, please post it in the forums, and we'll fix it ASAP.

Server transfer to begin soon posted by Spyder on December 10th, 2004

Our current webhost is closing it's doors, and we will begin moving MS to a new host starting Monday, the 13th of December. Please do not upload any files to your website or to Mystic Software from the time the transfer begins, until the time that we inform you that the transfer is complete. I will post on the forums, as well as the main site when I've begun the transfer. You may continue to post on the forums once the transfer begins. Once the files have been transfered, we will lock the forums so that we can transfer the databases to the new server. A URL will be posted here, as well as on the forum letting you know how to access the new site and forums while we transfer the domain names, which will be the last part of the process. For those of you with web and email accounts with MS, none of your login information should change. For the most part, I have all of your information, and hopefully won't have to ask anyone for it. All FTP logins should also remain the same. If anything changes, I will post them on this forum, as well as the home page. If you have any questions, please reply to this message, or contact me through PM or email.
