Soul Gateway - Another Stage of History
Upcoming Soulcalibur IV CaS site/guide

Posted Image

This is an upcoming sneak peak at the new Soul Calibur IV CaS site, called Soul Gateway - Another Stage of History (title remains tentative). Basically the site will continue BaneWolf's Soul Calibur III CaS Guide's legacy to exclusively cover Soul Calibur IV's CaS, the same great way BaneWolf's covered Soul Calibur III's CaS.

Soul Gateway - Another Stage of History will not only feature what BaneWolf's currently offers, but also a slew of ultra spiffy new features, sections, and enhancements. Some of these are:

New features:
  • CaS rating system (viewers can directly rate every CaS on the site and view their current overall rating)
  • Infinite user commenting on the site for every CaS
  • Masterlist link on CaS page if author has one on the forums
  • Personal author comments/notes for each CaS (optional by author)
  • PSN/Live ID displayed for author (optional by author)
  • New site Shoutbox quickly accessible on every page
  • Site searching
  • Navigational site map
  • Instant access to chatroom on the forums
New sections:

  • Standard character customizations
Enhancements:
  • CaS screenshots will shift to genuine high definition, with full resolution sizes at 1280 x 720 and up to 1920 × 1080 each individual shot. In addition, there will no longer be any jumbling or collage screenshots, as seen in BWSCIIICG.
  • CaS battle presentation videos will return in high definition as with screenshots and be greatly enhanced. CaS video streaming will be hosted on a server with less ads or intrusions.
  • Cameos now organized alphabetically by clickable origins, and updates for them will be readily shown with red asterisks.
  • Separate link section featuring SCIV CaS sites as well as general SC sites. Site banners and a affiliate system will also be available.
Green items: Requested by members/visitors.



When will Soul Gateway - Another Stage of History be launched?
At the moment it is undecided and uncertain when the site will be launched for public access; however, the site will without a doubt be launched before the end of September. There's a required time frame from when SCIV releases to launching the site that includes mandatory tasks such as unlocking most/all CaS parts and creation + additions of CaSs for the site.

When will you be taking SCIV CaS submissions?
Likely by the time most or all CaS parts have been unlocked for the mode and the forums revamped for a SCIV submissions section. There will definitely be a wide announcement on the forums and through e-mail when SCIV submissions becomes available.

Should I start working on my forums points to prepare for the SCIV site?
You should continue to build your post and point totals on the forums, but we are expecting to reset point totals accumulated through the forums thus far in order to start fresh for SCIV.

Points build so far can still be used to submit SCIII submissions for BaneWolf's site, but they will most likely not be used for the SCIV site.

We've been really thinking of giving members the first SCIV CaS submission free, so you can maybe expect no work required other than forums registration to get your first CaS up on the site.

Can I see a full preview of the site as it stands?
No. The site's layout and pages is still massively under construction, so don't expect a full preview until much after in the month.

What will happen to BaneWolf's Soul Calibur III CaS Guide when Soul Gateway - Another Stage of History is out?
Nothing. Once Soul Gateway is out BaneWolf's and its entire contents will be preserved for people who wish to use its resources for SCIII CaS. For great convenience, you will be allowed to instantly switch back and forth between BaneWolf's and Soul Gateway as you please.



Got any comments, suggestions, anything you want added to the site?
Please post a reply in this thread!!

Great job C.T it looks to be super promising! I especially love the CaS rating system and commenting, it'll almost make the CaS ratings on the forums worthless. ^_^

I need a heart that carries on through the pain
When the walls start collapsing again
Give me a soul that never ceases to follow
Despite the infection within

I personally thought these were going to be the best new features, thanks to implementation and usage of PHP on my host.

The layout isn't final so I might alter it slightly or change it entirely, one reason I'm not presenting a full browseable preview of the site. The layout looks much better in full size, so don't be too swift to judge the appearance. :)

Resetting current point totals makes everything fresh for SCIV and will open equal opportunities to new members in addition to current members. If you don't want to lose them, jot your current amount down before I reset the points so that you'll have a nice reference to it somewhere.

Reference as in just something you can look back upon and be proud of. I doubt they'll actually have any play for SCIV submissions concerning my current plans.

MMM looks awesome. Guess I should wait till SCIV comes out cause I don't think I can accumilate enough points in a month to submit much SCIII characters and the fact that you are resetting points.
