Is it possible to use the old currencies before the euro? Because some WWTBAM versions before their switching to euro used old national currencies like lira, French franc, Deutschmark, markka, tolar, peseta, escudo.

The 100+ money trees from international versions would be a great example of something a volunteer could help you with. Dunno if there is a database file with all the money trees in it, but if you put up a template, a few of us could put those together for you. One less thing for you to do.

Is it possible to use the old currencies before the euro? Because some WWTBAM versions before their switching to euro used old national currencies like lira, French franc, Deutschmark, markka, tolar, peseta, escudo. It is definitely possible to use some symbols that existed before the Euro. The only problem is that not all of the symbols appear in the FHWA Series E font (or that other one if I can locate that PM and rebuild it) which is what I'm using for the money tree. (Remember it's not ITC Conduit that appears on the Shuffle series money tree and even then, that font is still limited by what symbols are there.) That font doesn't have every single currency symbol. Example: It doesn't have the Indian Rupee which is why there is no symbol before the values listed. The 100+ money trees from international versions would be a great example of something a volunteer could help you with. Dunno if there is a database file with all the money trees in it, but if you put up a template, a few of us could put those together for you. One less thing for you to do. I'm thinking more and more about this and it would completely be possible but not sure if there is much need for it. Many of the international variants used the basic tree that the UK/US started with but with no currency. Only a few exceptions are around like again say Chile, Hindi, Japanese millionaire where the values are drastically different. (Hell I was thinking about an encyclopedia/j-archive/wiki like website for Millionaire in mind soon. That's a project for later next year.) But back to the point at hand, I can definitely look into templates soon. The 100+ money trees from international versions would be a great example of something a volunteer could help you with. Dunno if there is a database file with all the money trees in it, but if you put up a template, a few of us could put those together for you. One less thing for you to do. What is that "template" look like? No idea what the template would like right now. I'm not sure if I'm going to provide a code block template or if I'm going to use an Excel sheet and I'll insert into the Database for inclusion but I definitely have options. I'll be thinking about these over the next few days. These are some of the final things to get in before I start struggling with drawing the lozenges and/or logos.

I've been asking a lot from people in regards to the show and everyone here is a tremendous help (except for people who make posts like below). (Turns out there's a lot to the show than what's just been on air.) Nowhere unless you can find the hidden GitLab repository.

Will that be similar to the Sourceforge version of Millionaire?

On the customization of the money tree, that is.

I'll probably make some changes to the file handling to allow someone to just reuse the already sourceforge format. (Any questions imported will just be listed as "General Knowledge".)

Giant update video because holy crap I did a lot in three months:
Tl;Dr: (or TL;DW?)
- No more x15, etc. of a lifeline, it's a used or not used lifeline. - Player Database keeps info on the player and the PAF. - Ask One/Three Of Audience, Joker (Power Paplu), Cut The Question available as options. (Something isn't working... getting close to making it.) - Design of New Game Form no longer hides stuff. (Except Crystal Ball is no longer an option outside of Shuffle formats) - Blank lifelines spaces are saved. - Easier way to edit the tree that doesn't involve editing the entire tree. - Lifeline thread was only made available since I goofed with how it was to be shared. - Host Screen demo/open beta test due by early winter 2017.
