Would have been nice if this was communicated better. However I’m not one to complain about a bump when in the end we got what we wanted.
It broke my heart to be locked out of my favorite classic (and favorite in general) games, and I can now sleep much more peacefully knowing that I can still walk through the hollowed remains and experience a part of the feeling of some of my most beloved memories and favorite all time experiences.
Words cannot express my gratitude. Ever since Experimental games underwent lockdown, I’ve been bombarded with help requests by hundreds of different Groups. I’m still going to release FE tech for them, but now there’s less urgency and panic in the community.
For anyone still using Roblox’s classic build tools, I have released the filtering compatible versions that I made for Super Nostalgia Zone. They are designed to be safe against practical exploits!
The original HopperBins will no longer work online, since they are 100% clientside.
This is frustrating, for some of us still. I personally don’t have the coding experience or time due to having a job and such to dedicate any significant amount of time to amending my games to FE compatible code. The game I’ve been working on tirelessly for 5 years or so now is completely broken now and I don’t have the time to re code the whole entire game from scratch. Thanks.
I am hugely thankful of you, Roblox, for deciding to make the change to this update. You have just saved Roblox’s culture by doing this, and you have made the FE process so much simpler and secure for all Roblox users.
For all of you scripters that have had their coding bugged by the FE, I apologize for the work you are going to have to put in to make your scripts FE compatible, but this change, I believe, is personally for the better. Let us hope that you will be able to fix your games with the auto-FE feature, and let us hope FE may one day be updated so that it has a smaller chance of braking code.
I really love this game, I use to play it a lot and I still play it from time to time.
Wolf, I’m not sure if you’d be up to letting people do this but maybe you could get a team together and try to have them help recode your game?
