Umbrella Online is primarily a Resident Evil and survival horror gaming fan community. The project initially ran from 2002-2003 on vBulletin 2, and after a long hiatus have decided to revive it following the recent remakes of Resident Evil 2 and 3, as well as the upcoming releases of Resident Evil Village and a Netflix series.
Honestly there's been very little development time, but was excited to share what I have so far. Hopefully any issues are minor.. Add-on wise, I'm going for a completely opposite approach to Nerdface and am trying to keep these to a minimum.
A shout-out goes to Stylesfactory for the style (Rain), his permission for me to edit and customise it, and his awesome support in resolving a couple of issues that were identified with the base style since going live.
It's pretty difficult trying to come up with a "light" style for a survival horror themed site.. but after much grumbling and procrastinating, I think I'm getting somewhere.. The style is now selectable, but is considered a beta. It is once again based on a Stylesfactory theme (Snow).
In other news, the project recently moved host to MattW as he came strongly recommended throughout XF and I'm sick to death of having server issues. Unfortunately (in terms of maintenance), keeping the add-ons to a minimum lasted for all of about 2 weeks.. :X3:
After being in a bit of a "funk" for 12 months or so.. a refresh of Umbrella Online is currently underway
As part of the refresh, we're giving the Wiki a whole lot of love and re-imagining.
Plenty more is planned..
For a number of reasons, we've moved to being a closed and invite-only community. If you're genuinely interested in joining and participating you can DM me for an invite code.
