A new resource for b-max(2/4) lovers
Currently I'm working on two dedicated 'b-max' websites. This means: one for the b-max2 and one for the b-max4.
This means: a dedicated source for both cars on both seperate websites. I know there is PetitRC and I love PetitRC, but it's a bit static. There isn't much going on to interact with other b-max people. Yeah, we have Oople (and even PetitRC forums) for that... But not everyone is on Oople or speaks English. I'm looking into this, so a couple of highlights I'm thinking of implementing: * Setups [upload/download/'share'] & ratings * Show your b-max * Where to get Yokomo stuff * Where to get upgrades * Tips&tricks (there are a lot of things happening) * Mobile first, so optimized for your tablet/mobile when you are at the track Yes. I won't be building a forum as it would be a duplicate of all those other forums. I prefer Oople. My profession is to build software, so I'm looking forward to put a alpha version online soon. Any one interested or maybe some tips/features wanted? Thanks |
Whoop whoop!!! Can't wait!
|
I'm currently building this (from scratch). Will provide some screenshots soon. :thumbsup:
|
Just did some work. It's all running with a database and stuff.
Layout isn't done yet, but i'm already done with a base layout: http://bmax2.eu/img/2014-08-14--1408...x849_scrot.png It's all responsive. All setups will be converted to png and are downloadable (if available) as PDF. More soon, as I quit developing for tonight. :lol: |
Any news yet?
|
Not much. Did some more development work last week. Will put a béta online soon. I will continue development tonight.
First version won't include several 'user' features like : uploading your own setup, reviewing and sharing. This will be included in further releases. Once online, I plan to do a weekly release schedule. So every week new features. |
Release is near. Just finishing up some things.
See some progress in the setup list and details: http://bmax2.eu/img/bmax2eu.v0101.png http://bmax2.eu/img/bmax2eu.v0102.png If all goes allright, I will post some new stuff tomorrow.:thumbsup: Oh to clarify: the website is fully database powered.. no more html hacking and manual updating. List in screenshots is incomplete, it's test data. |
Looks cool. Can't wait to try it.
I take it initially you will maintain the setup sheet list until you get the submission engine working? |
Look good!
I wish I could have done the same thing but ... each one is job and skills |

I'm currently adding a shop list - so people can see where to buy the great car :thumbsup:. I've had no contact with shops (I need their permission first, i guess) yet, but will do once online. I will post some updates tonight, it's getting close. I hope lots of people will use it. Maybe, if possible, I'll post a test (for stable) link as well, just so you all can try it out. Oh, everything is free of charge of course, I don't want people to pay, this hobby is more than expensive enough :P @Arn0, thanks. I should thank you as well, I know it takes a lot of work to maintain a website. But I would like to involve the drivers to upload and talk about their own setups (and more). |
Great setup link looking forward to using it
|
Keep up the good Work!

Two more. A better idea for you guys. I like a clean layout, don't like all kinds of flashing stuff :p
The car in the header is mine, but in the future there will be more cars.. so if you have nice pictures.. please let me know :) I'm working on to make it a bit more "Yokomo style" http://bmax2.eu/img/bmax2eu.v0103.png http://bmax2.eu/img/bmax2eu.v0104.png |
Just finished up the setup submit form. Have to tweak the submit process a bit this week and I'll probably put it online then.

Just in case your (local) track doesn't exists, you can add on submit:
http://bmax2.eu/img/bmax2eu.v0106.png And able to select on adding. Submitting now works. I expect to release next weekend :thumbsup: http://bmax2.eu/img/bmax2eu.v0107.png |
I totally forgot to implement 'Track Conditions'. This has been done now. The only thing is that I'm not happy with the form. It's too busy. :mad: Will have to sort that out.
http://bmax2.eu/img/bmax2eu.v0108.png Adding goes smooth. Easy user experience. List also has been updated a bit. Still have to find a decent way to display track conditions. http://bmax2.eu/img/bmax2eu.v0109.png Any likes so far? |
Looks good so far. I guess you can't get a feel for it from screen shots, until you actually use the site. looking forward to using it.
Not sure how relevant/useful the slider for traction % is? e.g define 45% traction? |
Slider is more to specify the traction level. Imo it's better than low/medium/high grip. Since "75% grip" is between medium/high.. Maybe I'll refactor that functionality in the future.
If all goes well, first version goes online on Sunday. Maybe Saturday if I'm lucky :p |
Just put a test version online for some people. When more testing is done (and I'll release some bug fixes) I'll push the site to bmax2.eu. If all goes well, should be friday :D
|
Sorry for the delay on pushing code to bmax2 as I had some other stuff to do. If all goes well I'll launch the first version of the website this Wednesday.
I'm working on some small bugs now - then will test - and will release. Hope you are all looking forward to it. First version will be a bit bare, but functionality will be added throughout time.:lol: |
