SkylineGTRFreak Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Making the countdown as "Time of arrival" would've been more fitting Just kidding, nice job indeed. Looking forward to further improvements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
locolow2011 Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 @Jake I'm guessing the video dude doesn't know you made the page so he's speculating about trevor flying to LS from Liberty City, he thinks rockstar made the page or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhillBellic Posted May 12, 2013 Share Posted May 12, 2013 Very good effort there, bookmarked... I wonder if the flight crew will have to sedate Trevor because of his 'unique' personality LOL. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakee. Posted May 13, 2013 Author Share Posted May 13, 2013 @Skyline thanks! @locolow Ahh, I see.. thanks @PhillBellic wouldn't surprise me... Thanks! So I have a question, when you hide the information to the minimal look, would you like to control the slideshow? (i.e setting an amount of time before each image swaps), or would you just like a "Next Image" button? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maglev Posted May 14, 2013 Share Posted May 14, 2013 Good job! Could you make an option to make the background black? White is so bright at night! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jakee. Posted May 14, 2013 Author Share Posted May 14, 2013 Good job! Could you make an option to make the background black? White is so bright at night! Hey, Which background are you relating too? The background **should** be screenshots from the game. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mário César Baldessar Moro Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 The countdown is wrong. There are 125 days left not 132. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodrich266 Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 Very nice work! I remember seeing Niko's ticket of Air Sol in the background of the GTA IV 100% club (or somewhere nearby) in the R* Social Club webpage I remember it said Mr Niko Bellic and had San Andreas as a destination. I wonder if it was subtly placed there as a hint of where then next GTA game was going to take place... Anyways, nice work and ideas, keep it up!

Jakee. Posted May 15, 2013 Author Share Posted May 15, 2013 @Mario : Please note the countdown is powered by javascript, therefore running from your PC Clock, it is more than likely you having an incorrect date on your PC. http://puu.sh/2U2lr.jpg @PhatteeButtz : Thanks! @rodrich266 : That is where I got the idea from, the Social club!

Jakee. Posted May 16, 2013 Author Share Posted May 16, 2013 @Mario In an upcoming update that should be released tonight, I have added options available for the user. It is possible to add the feature of being able to change the format of the date. @GrandTheftFan Thank you! @ugotsmoked Haha, cheers! @oblivionsnake I decided a little easter egg to this forum would be suitable since it became such a huge piece of hype haha, the memories!

Jakee. Posted May 16, 2013 Author Share Posted May 16, 2013 An Update! Been working on an update for the countdown alongside doing my college coursework, have got a fair bit done in the amount of time! Anyway, was unable to really keep this update back any longer as it has the slideshow functionality that a lot of people have requested. So, with this it allows you to set an interval from a pre-defined list of intervals that I believe people would like, you can suggest possible intervals and I would be more than happy to add them. Secondly, you can also include the official artworks into the rotation, this is randomly generated so there will be a mix between artwork and screenshots if this is selected. Rotation will be stopped when you open the ticket view again, you can also stop rotation all together within the options menu. All options are stored within cookies, can be easily edited if you are not happy with the interval as I have simply stored it in plaintext anyway. You can change your options using this link: www.gtav.pw/#options or you can click the "Options" item from the menu. I have also added some shortcuts, for example you can visit the site and have everything automatically hidden using: www.gtav.pw/#hide, already shown above for the options page and finally for the changelog you can use the following link: www.gtav.pw/#changelog I have also made some tweaks so the site looks a bit nicer in IE8+. So yeah, quite a big update on my part (also cleaned a lot of the code up) and not so much on your end, but the slideshow feature is finally part of the countdown! One thing I will be doing is pre-loading the image in the slideshow a few seconds before the interval to prevent the ugly loading look. Anyway, enough babbling, here are some links!

Jakee. Posted May 17, 2013 Author Share Posted May 17, 2013 - Added a new option to randomise data when you enable it in options menu - Added the ability to change the background on demand without having to refresh the page What is next? ------------- - Contact form - Dynamic Signatures They should be ready within a week or two, and then it will be pretty much complete. Just then need to code in the ticket ripping apart on the day and it will be complete!
