Hi all,

If you guys wondered how some people were able to play games, like you couldn't since the client isn't available. I think this one deserves a thread in forums because a guy messaged me how I was able to play a game. I made this thread because I feel like we do want to let everyone know 2016 is being developed and we are doing a bit of testing before its release. I'll make sure to explain why and when it's going to release right now.

Finobe.net has released 2016 client to testers only, as it's in closed beta. There are still few things that didn't get added or has lack of functionality support. That includes creating places, datastore, functionality, friends, etc etc. Testers can't create places as unfortunately they have to request a game and share the place file in Finobe's Quality Assurance Team Discord Server. Just a note though: 2012 is like 85% percent done, and unfortunately it is not shared to testers as it's not complete. We spoke with client developers and the expected release for 2012 is probably late Summer. The 2012 development will begin in July.

We will be giving out Dius/R$ to someone if you can find missing pages such as settings, game properties, etc to us. If you do happen to have a old machine that you used to browse OG Finobe back then, it would be greatly appreciated as we do need a web cache since there's no media of game properties and settings as unfortunately it's lost media. They're really important to us, because without them, we can't know what Finobe had back then, and no we do not have the original Finobe's source code.

If you can find it, then thumbnails and some stuff would be definitely possible to make.

In case if you guys wanted to know how many are there in QA Team Server, and if you wanted to be part of QA. well, you'll have to meet some requirements in order to be invited for testing:

  • Be active. This is not really required, as most people don't go to forums often. However, If you don't have an OG Finobe Account then it is definitely required.
  • Your account must be at least 4 months old.
  • Have an account in OG Finobe. This is recommended, as we do need people who had experience with Finobe.com. However, It is not really required for someone who doesn't have a finobe.com account.

There are currently 31 active testers and 4 admins in Finobe's QA server. We do plan to grow and get more testers as we do need to do a stress test on gameservers, test functionalities, etc. If you do happen to have a good history of qa experience, then DM us on Discord or here.

TL;DR Here's a client showcase. It's being worked on and still unfinished. We do plan to release in mid Summer. https://files.catbox.moe/w4tp88.mp4

About game properties and settings page:

I did not reinstall, nor changed browsers ever since I installed Windows back in 2019 and I used to make games in the original Finobe, so it is possible that I have the web cache of what you guys desire right now.

Don't raise your hopes up though, because:

  1. My PC isn't available right now and I do not even know when I will get it back
  2. I am not allowed to use Discord (for now, I hope)
  3. I visited Finobe a few times after the install

Therefore, I cannot promise because it is unlikely to happen.

As notaku said: Yes, but you will need to setup the protocol yourself. Since Wine won't handle it automatically.
