AnnouncementsIf you’re on our Discord server, you’re probably already aware of this, but we’re happy to reveal a new section of The Data Dungeon, creatively dubbed the “Library”.
For the library, we’ll be making various pieces of documentation and more, easily accessible for anyone to read and search online. Right now, you can find copies of earlier DirectX and MSDN documentation available, and we’ll aim to add and expand on it over time.
You can find the new section here. We haven’t yet updated the homepage of The Data Dungeon to link to the library yet but will be doing so soon.
As usual, if you have any feedback, you can submit it in the dedicated channel in our server.

Aiming to change that, we decided to make an offer to the individual behind the channel, and after acquiring some better capture equipment and sending our Xbox off to have more RAM soldered onto the motherboard, here we are today!

ArticleHey there, Daniel here. Among other things, I help out with some of the sysadmin type stuff around here.
This article is a bit different to what we usually post - its a behind-the-scenes look at how we handle our data storage needs, ensuring our collection is backed up and nothing is ever lost or corrupted.
