Good for everyone!

There are news about the project update, or even the project continues to walk? always saw new posts in niotso the facebook page but this means stopped before. Thank you!

Sigh.
Yes, project is still active.

It takes time to restore the whole Game + Server !

Nobody is currently working on the game who knows anything about the simulation code or wants to. I might return to working on it eventually.

No project is not active.
just kidding

http://forum.afr0games.com/index.php?forums/releases.5/ <- Check here for updates, announcements, etc.
As you can tell, the team is still posting (not just in this forum alone!)

https://github.com/Afr0/Project-Dollhouse/commits/master <- You can still see the latest fixes and additions by looking here, and when they were made, which is pretty often.

Yes.

That's not technically true, I'd love to work on the simulation code, but can't because I'm the only one with networking experience working!

I still have to finish learning C# before I even touch learning XNA/Monogame. Better safe then sorry.

 

[Afr0]

I don't know what you're still learning, but honestly, whatever you haven't learned yet you can most likely pick up while learning Monogame. If you know these concepts you should be (more than) good to go:

- Classes (public and private members)
- Inheritance (protected members, virtual methods)
- Loops
- If and switch (conditional branching)
- Arrays
- Reading and writing to and from files

Well, the book covers those including methods, recursion, creating/using objects, exception handling, string/text processing, defining classes, dictionaries, hash tables, data structures and algorithms. In that order. Right now I'm on Numeral Systems. I'd feel more comfortable getting my hands dirty in Monogame after I finished the chapter about objects.
