So yes, it's done!
What this does is access the ROM remotely. When you open a file, it gets downloaded from the server. When you save it, it gets uploaded and saved to the ROM in the server. Also no two people can edit the same file at once. So no collaborative level editing (for now). If you try to do it you'll get the "File is already being edited" error. So yeah. Go download b368 and connect it to nsmbhd.net port 7373, and help beta-test it! When this is stable enough, we could use it for organizing stuff in the Community Remix. If we do, I'll add username/password authentication based on NSMBHD accounts and only whitelist trusted people.  Known issues: - It's a bit slow. - Error handling sucks: if you lose connection everything goes boom. Server source code is here, in case someone's interested: (It's Java) https://github.com/Dirbaio/jnds |

Doesn't actually do anything.

I'd say this is worthy of a news post. Garmichael's contest has been at the top for far too long.

Yeah, nice idea.
I'll put it when it's more beta-tested and stable

Also one simple question: if this is going to be used for the community remix, are backups being made periodically? Otherwise, it would be extremely simple for someone to show up and just wreck the ROM.

Dang, this is awesome! I tested it a bit and it seemed to work fine. Opening files is slow, but saving them seemed to be pretty fast. It would be useful if the server could somehow store a full patch too. I used the built in patch generator, but it was painfully slow. If the server could cache a patch for the ROM too, that would be quite helpful. If you still need more ideas, a revision history could be nice. If you set it up to use NSMBHD user accounts, it could show who edited what file and at what time. |

The patch exporter could be optimized a lot if I make the server send only the hashes of the files. I could also make a script that allows to download a patch directly...
And yeah the revision thing is a nice idea. Not sure how easy will it be to do though. |

So can we download the ROM in the server to test?
