Here's the progress:

Soldered on all the rows to the diodes. The first and last diode was wrapped an entire lap around the cable, the middle ones were simply folded over the cable before solder was added. I did find an easier and faster way of cutting off the plastic cover from the cable, where I cut off a longer piece of cable than I need, then strip a sizeable length. Next I solder it on, strip a piece of plastic further up and push it down along the cable until it's a good length between the diodes. If it's too long, I strip some more of the plastic coating and push it back up. If it's too short I strip some more and push down. The end result isn't perfect but it's faster and better than not doing it. I also soldered on the collumns (white). They were wrapped around each switch leg for stability and safety.



I cut a 14 cable flat (grey) cable to length, removed 2 cables from it then split it in half for 2 6-cable flat cables. I removed some plastic and pushed each individual cable through the pin holes on the microcontroller making sure the plastic butted up against the PCB so each cable was insulated from each other. Soldered them on. I did the same thing with 5 cables (red). I put the microcontroller in it's place. Added electrical tape to make sure there's no accidental shorts.


Each cable from the flat cable was then pulled into and shortened to a decent length to connect to it's corresponding collumn. They were then soldered on by stripping a bit off of them, folding the cable into a hook and melting the solder that was already there and pushing it in. The red cables were then soldered onto the rows in the same way, making sure it's after the diode.


The keyboard was then flipped, had the bottom properly attached and keycaps attached to the keyswitches.


I then spent atleast 2 hours trying to find out what port on the microcontroller corresponded to the "pins" on the Keyboard Firmware Builder. I finally found the official information pdf for it. It's the "ports" category, and you ignore the letter "P".

Next up is the firmware, and I'm also waiting for a micro-usb male to usb-c female converter that I will use. I have a micr-usb cable that works, but it's removable but not really attachable since you currently have to unscrew the entire keyboard to re-attach the cable. I will open one of the usb converter and hopefully it'll be easy to extend it longer, so I can glue it into it's place in the case and have it permanently connected.

Speaking of glue, I regret having the holes for the key switches cut in the shape I did. I should have gone with straight squares instead. The odd shape cutout is apparently so you can open the switch even if it's soldered in place. Unfortunately that makes it less stable since it's not in contact with as much as it could have been. I need to glue the keyswitches in place so I can remove the key caps without risking breaking the keyboard by pulling out the key switches.

I also got my Swedish SDA set today. It's exactly the same kit as the blank set but with text. This means that it's very easy to mix and match between the keycaps. I also saw realized I could use the numpad numbers instead of the normal numbers. The numpad numbers are significantly cleaner looking, so that will be sick.

I originally designed the biggest keys to be 2u keycaps, but later changed it to 1,75u since it looked like a more common keycap size. The kits came with 4 2u and 1 1,75u each. And the text 1,75u one is the Caps Lock key. So I get to chose between having the correct size but it saying Caps Lock as my spacebar key or being slightly smaller but blank.

I will try out to put on the alpha-numerics later and hope that it looks good, with all the other keys blank.

I also fucked up some of the keyswitches with the soldering iron. Who could have guessed a metal-melting hot piece of steel would be hot enough to melt thin plastic keyswitch cases? Now some of the keyswitches don't go all the way down. Oops. Lets hope that they're still functional atleast, and that I don't have to remove them and add in new ones.

That's all for now, cheers.

Looks more ergonomic. Like a MS natural keyboard.

I hate that I can't just buy a mechanical + natural keyboard [that's not like weird].


The MS natural keyboard has 2 mayor ergonomic design features, and otherwise remains mostly normal. Center split angle and Tenting. I was looking at the Matias Ergo Pro

which does mostly the same thing, but since it's in 2 parts it also allows you to chose the angle yourself, and if you want tenting or not. You can also use negative tilt instead if you want, which also saves on your wrists.

The UHK does the same thing (it can also be connected and simply be a 60% keyboard):


And if you want ortholinear or columnally staggered look up the Ergo-dox.

Also, the Alice keyboard layout is just sex, but it's unfortunately not one of those things you can just buy.

Progress has been made.

Switches have been chosen (Zealios v2) and inserted:


Diodes have been looped and cut (not my photo):


Diodes have been placed in place and soldered on:




Next up is cutting, peeling and soldering on the rows, then the same thing with the collumns. I still don't know how to attach the micro controller to the aluminium plates without having problems with it shorting out. I also realized that I could buy (or make?) a short male micro-usb to female usb-c cable and have that permanently attached to the micro controller. That would make the keyboard USB-C and also make the keyboard more resistant to breaking since the usb port on the micro controller is the most common thing to break.

That's it for this update. Cheers

The plates have arrived!



The switches clicked right in and were removed just like on my keyboards that have hotswappable switches, so the sizing ended up being perfect. Not that that's surprising, since I ordered from a website that has been connected up directly with the tools I used.

The price ended up not being bad at all. Turns out it was shipped from Greece, which being in the EU means that the VAT was paid even though they didn't show it. There was also no import cost other than the shipping cost. So that's cool.

I copied the 10º angle of the sections from the Atreus since I wasn't sure what angle I would like. The previous version's angle was just guessed based on me holding up my arms to my monitor. That version also had the sections further apart. Now that the plates have arrived I noticed that to have my arms straight onto the sections I can't use my arm rests, but instead need to have my arms fall to my sides. I'm not sure if I will end up prefering this or the having the angle increased to 20-30.

I also got some more switches because I'm mad:



The pink and translucent switches are Everglide Sakura Pink and the black and Yellow are Gateron Yellow Switches. They're both linear switches because I was very hyped for that after typing for a while on Kailh BOX Red. I bought Kailh BOX Black a long time ago, (as I'm fairly certain I wrote about here, and the black being too heavy for me but the red feeling great I wondered what linear switch I could buy that was the lightest. Turns out that's Everglide Sakura Pink, with an actuation force of 35g. The Gateron Yellows I bought because a Mechanical Keyboard Youtuber I watch said they're his favourite so I'm looking forward to testing them.

Short review of the Everglide Pink:
They're very light. In fact, they're the only keyswitches I've ever tried that I've accidentally triggered keys just by resting my fingers on the keys. Mainly it's the F key because of it being the left hand homing key. I also have a fairly large problem of double-tapping the keys where I try to gently press the key once to not bottom out but it triggers twice. Another problem is that it feels like the actuation point is on different heights on different keys. This probably has more to do with different strenght in my fingers. As I try to avoid bottoming out I have to press very gently with my index and long fingers but when I press as hard as I think I should with my pinkie finger it ends up not being quite far enough to trigger the key. Also, the actuation point is in my personal opinion too far down. If you're the kind of person who wants really light hairtrigger style switches you probably also want them to trigger quickly, right? And lastly, because of how light the keyswitches are you can feel the actuation point. I'm not quite sure of the construction of them, but just before the actuation point the key gets "stuck" and requires a percentally stronger push to actually trigger. This review ended up being pretty long, huh?

I got some switch lube which apparently can help with spring ping, which might end up saving the Halo Trues I bought. Unfortunately I still haven't recieved the Switch opener I ordered. Keyswitches can be opened using a screwdriver and some violence, but I'm too scared to do that.

As I will be soldering on the keyswitches I can't decide on switches to use. I was fairly certain that the best option would be the Zealios V2 and some linear switches for modifier keys. I think I might end up just using the Zealios on every key since I'm not sure which keys will end up being modifers. I do want to try lubing them though.

I moved the keys around on my Planck and placed Shift and Backspace on the closest keys to the spacebar making them both thumbkeys and easier to access (especially when typing using actual touch typing). I will probably end up doing the same on the Poliboard. I also realized first today that since the keyboard doesn't have any extra keys other than not having a 2 unit spacebar (and a number row) that it ends up being very close to the Planck. In fact, it's the same number of keys as the 1u only version of the Preonic. So that's cool, I guess?

Candykeys, the store I bought most of my stuff from has restocked their Novelkeys + Kailh Cream switches. These are made of the plastic POM and some other materials so it's self lubricating. I really like this idea, and it's been getting top reviews and so ended up running out of stock everywhere for like a year. I'm planning on buying a pack of these when Candykeys restock another thing that I'm waiting on for a different keyboard I'm interested in.

That's all for now, cheers.

My finalized design.


I ended up not using my Adobe Illustrator designed file but instead spent a lot more time designing the keyboard using the Keyboard Layout Editor, then making the plate with Swillkb's Plate and Case Builder. Unfortunately Keyboard Layout Editor not very good at doing columnar staggering (it groups things horizontally). Here's my code if you want to try it out:

code
[{r:10,rx:1,y:-0.1,x:3},"3"],
[{y:-0.75,x:4},"4"],
[{y:-1,x:2},"2"],
[{y:-0.75},"esc","1"],
[{y:-0.9,x:5},"5"],
[{y:-0.6,x:3},"E"],
[{y:-0.75,x:2},"W",{x:1},"R"],
[{y:-0.75,f:5},"<i class='kb kb-Tab-1'></i>",{f:3},"Q"],
[{y:-0.9,x:5},"T"],
[{y:-0.6,x:3},"D"],
[{y:-0.75,x:2},"S",{x:1,n:true},"F"],
[{y:-0.75,f:5},"∅",{f:3},"A"],
[{y:-0.9,x:5},"G"],
[{y:-0.6,x:3},"C"],
[{y:-0.75,x:2},"X",{x:1},"V"],
[{y:-0.75},"shift","Z"],
[{y:-0.9,x:5},"B"],
[{y:-0.6,x:3},"raise"],
[{y:-0.75,x:2},"alt"],
[{y:-0.75},"ctrl",{f:5},"<i class='kb kb-logo-windows-8'></i>"],
[{y:0.6,x:5,h:1.25},"<i class='mss mss-Unicode-DeleteRight-Big-2'></i>"],
[{r:45,rx:4.05,ry:4,y:0.2,x:1.1,a:7,f:3,w:1.75},""],
[{r:-45,rx:11.05,x:-3,a:4,w:1.75},"⌈STAND⌋"],
[{r:-10,rx:8,ry:1.135,y:-0.205,x:2},"8"],
[{y:-0.75,x:1},"7",{x:1},"9"],
[{y:-0.75,x:4},"0",{f:5},"<i class='mss mss-Unicode-BackSpace-DeleteLeft-Big-2'></i>"],
[{y:-0.9,f:3},"6"],
[{y:-0.6,x:2},"I"],
[{y:-0.75,x:1},"U",{x:1},"O"],
[{y:-0.75,x:4},"P","Å"],
[{y:-0.9},"Y"],
[{y:-0.6,x:2},"K"],
[{y:-0.75,x:1,n:true},"J",{x:1},"L"],
[{y:-0.75,x:4},"Ö","Ä"],
[{y:-0.9},"H"],
[{y:-0.6,x:2},","],
[{y:-0.75,x:1},"M",{x:1},"."],
[{y:-0.75,x:4},"-","?"],
[{y:-0.9},"N"],
[{y:-0.6,x:2},"lower"],
[{y:-0.75,x:3,f:5},"∇"],
[{y:-0.75,x:4},""",{f:3},"enter"],
[{y:0.6,f:5,h:1.25},"<i class='mss mss-Unicode-BackSpace-DeleteLeft-Big-2'></i>"]


And here's the code from before the columnal stagger:
code
[{r:10,rx:1,y:-0.1,a:7},"","","","","",""],
["","","","","",""],
["","","","",{n:true},"",""],
["","","","","",""],
["","","",""],
[{y:1,x:5,h:1.25},""],
[{r:45,rx:4.05,ry:4,y:-0.1,x:1,w:2},""],

[{r:-45,rx:10.85,y:-0.1,x:-3,w:2},""],
[{r:-10,rx:8,ry:1.135,y:-0.205},"","","","","",""],
["","","","","",""],
["",{n:true},"","","","",""],
["","","","","",""],
[{x:2},"","","",""],
[{y:1,h:1.25},""]

Much cleaner code since it's not having issues grouping the keys. This version doesn't have any text added to the keys, but still, that's not difficult to add, just a bit of effort.

Swillkb's Plate Builder also misses a feature (and a weird bug) that I assumed that it had, which I found out by trying to make it work for very long. The bug is that it doesn't always position the holes correctly. If you look at the KLE version I posted you'll see that the Space and STAND keys are actually positioned slightly differently. This is because I noticed that for some reason it moved the space key up slightly for some reason in SP&CB. It did it so much it would genuinely have made the keyboard jam up by putting 2 keycaps inside each other.
The missing feature is that the builder has a system for writing instructions so the keyboard plate has a different design than the default rectangle using add and cut commands to add and remove material. This works well enough, the problem is that it doesn't seem able to cut into the material rectangle automatically designed. Since I wanted to remove quite a bit of material around my keys that's annoying. This is weird though, since in the documentation for the builder it makes an example where it does exactly this. I'm not sure if it's just my keyboard bugging this out too, but I wouldn't be surprised.




This is the aluminium plate I just ordered from an international lasercutting service. I also ordered the bottom plate, which is the same thing but without the holes for the key switches. I ended up ordering from this website instead of from the Swedish or Danish websites I found. The Swedish one doesn't cut aluminium, so I'd have to get an acrylic top plate, which means that the switches wouldn't click into place and would probably have to be glued in. It would also be less durable. The Danish website was extremely expensive (200eur for one plate compared to Lasergist's 170 for both). I will end up having to pay again for the plates though as it was bought without VAT and without import costs, but it will still end up being 60%-ish of the cost. And somehow also cheaper shipping?

This is what the wiring matrix will end up looking like:


Because of the stagger, angling of the keys and 4 strangely positioned keys Keyboard Firmware Builder ended up making a big mess with how many rows and collumns and how they should be ordered. Since the keyboard essentially just is two 5*6 blocks of keys, with 2 keys on each side moved slightly, the wiring should be very easy.

I was also complaining how there wasn't a keyboard that had all the features that I wanted, turns out I was wrong. There's a keyboard called the ErgoDash (pictured below) that does what I want, with some extra features that I don't mind. The place you buy the PCBs for it from also sells assembly service so you don't have to build it yourself. I looked into buying a kit, but it's more complicated than I can handle, having not built a keyboard previously, and the assembly service was fairly expensive, but I am thinking about maybe buying it some other time.

The Ergodash:


The ErgoDash can also be build with several different layout. Check out the various layouts on it's Github Page.

I recieved my delayed parcel with blank dsa keycaps, switches and microcontrollers. In the parcel there was only one kind of switch, one was missing, and there was an extra microcontroller for some reason. I contacted their customer service and was told the Kailh BOX Jade were delayed for some reason, and that they would come later, and that I could keep the microcontroller for free. Huh.

So, here's my short review of the Zealios V2 62g:
They're the most tactile keyswitches I've ever felt, and the bump is immediate. On the Kailh BOX White there is quite a bit of travel before you hit the bump. Same thing with the Cherry MX Blue. The 62g is the lightest version, and reading that they were 62g I was honestly a bit scared to pick them up since I significantly prefere light switches, but they are great. The Zealios V2 are also available with 67 and 78 grams of resistance, but I'm not sure if that is actuation or bottom out force. On the 62g ones that's the same thing, the bump is so strong that it's basically impossible to avoid bottoming out on them, but the bottom out is very gentle, almost as if they've softened the keys somehow. More likely the way you type on them, where they resist your push until they give in makes your fingers move down a set distance that happens to be just above the bottom. I really like them, and will probably use them instead of the Kailh BOX Red, but I plan on swapping in the BOX Reds for the modifier keys and use the tactile Zealios for the other keys.

I also found a Swedish store that sold a full Swedish SDA or XDA keycap set (both of which are uni-height), allowing for free movement and positioning of the keys. This is great and I'll probably end up buying it.

I also ordered a key switch opener and some switch lube and hopefully that's enought to fix the spring ping on the Halo Trues that I bought, but it'll be fun to try out otherwise too.

o hello man :) i didnt expect your answer..im glad you are here, big respect for what you did with these maps
..
so how it seems (by your words also) with bots, its really different thing...for me its weird (cuz they use also info_player_deathmatch and player_start...) need to test with my friends

just to let you know, i also decompiled your awp_snowsk to see how is it done (we use that map on our server, it works fine, except first round...sometimes bugged => giving awp to some knife-team (but after 1. round, everything is good)) saying it, cuz i guess decompiling is not 100% legal, how i undestand in my little experience at mapping...
but unfortunately, that 'new'' map goes with the same method as previously one...so wasnt that worth decompiling :D

i will make like a turorial with images on this forum (new thread), for like 5-6 days..or when i catch free time, cuz of studies...and we will see if we can accomplish something better heh

*we play on our server "awp_skok" i guess its yours, but someone changed the name...maybe some serbian cuz skok has a meaning to our language..dunno

The campaign is single player, but there is a two player co-op "story"-mode thing. You play it with 1 of 6 different characters that modify their race, adds powerful spells and has unlockable progress stuff. 3 of these 6 characters are free to play, if you just install SC2. Perhaps one person has to own the game though, not sure.
I bought sc2 LOTV to see how the story ends, anybody else buy it?

Also coop mode is probably the only thing that will motivate me to play more than 30 minutes without feeling like I'm total shit at the game.

A lot of my dreams lately have just been super incoherent, to the point where I can barely even remember them because there's nothing to organize them, so I'll submit the dream I had last night because it actually had a story.

I had a dream that I was working out of my house as a freelance movie reviewer. The trouble with this is that the studios would send me promotional materials all the time for their movies and each one of the movies was absolutely terrible. At the beginning of the dream, I was waking up to find a small animatronic doll having wandered into my room and begun staring at me as part of the promotional material for a movie that was a blatant Child's Play rip-off. I ignored it, thinking to myself, "okay, this doesn't work anymore because everyone acknowledges now that dolls are creepy and to be avoided. Video games, movies, TV series, everyone has exploited the evil doll thing now. It's no longer scary!"

With that I went downstairs and turned on a pre-screening copy of another horror movie called Magic Poncho (yes, that was the name of it). The plot of it was that this woman owned a cursed poncho (it was actually more of a bathrobe, but that's how stupid this movie was) and whenever she put it on, everyone around her would immediately start to have blank emotional expressions and then she'd experience a weird adrenaline surge and black out after a short period of time, not remembering anything, but waking up wearing the poncho and covered in spatters of blood and mud. I watched this for a while until I just started screaming at the TV, "STOP PUTTING ON THE PONCHO! YOU KNOW YOU'RE BLACKING OUT! YOU DON'T EVEN NEED THE PONCHO! IT'S INDOORS AND YOU ARE STILL WEARING THE PONCHO! WHAT THE HELL?" at which point my rage woke me up.

I still fucking hate that poncho.

I do definitely like having a large variety of cards, so hopefully our stock will keep growing over time.

The most important thing is for people to test their cards here:
http://superjer.com/forum/sah/test10.php

Just give your cards a whirl. If they don't knock your socks off, tinker with them or try something else. Testing also makes it pretty obvious when the grammar isn't quite working out.

New rules!

Recently, Nezumi and I removed about half of the black cards because they just don't play well.

Here's how we are deciding what makes a good black card from now on:

  • Black cards should be specific. We already have enough "_: High five bro!" cards.
  • Black cards should be about a particular thing, situation, or relation.
  • Black cards should imply a unique interpretation of the blank(s).
  • Two-fers and Three-fers should imply a unique relation between the blanks.
  • But sometimes a black card is just inexplicably good.
  • Black cards should be tested at: here


White cards should almost always be a noun (with an article if applicable), or a present continuous verb.

Examples:
  • a real butt-toucher (singular)
  • ropes (plural, so no article required)
  • the little lies we tell (plural, with optional article)
  • birth meat (uncountable, no article)
  • hibernating with friends (present continuous verb)


There is a lot of leeway for white cards. In general, a white card that breaks grammatically but is funny can still be accepted. A black card almost certainly has to be grammatically correct.




Black Cards:
He died as he lived, eating butter on _____.
_____, that's what the world needs right now.
the riddle says that the treasure is buried under _____.

White cards:
Luigi's blood-stained overalls
the last thing you'd expect
the 13th circle of Hell
living dolls from "its a small world"
a malfunctioning portal gun

Here's a little thing I wrote about a nightmare that I couldn't get out of my head. I made it a wile ago but forgot about it until now. Enjoy, or don't.

Nathan Jenkins
2 – 25 – 15
That Nightmare
How bad are your nightmares? What are they about? Gore, isolation, small places, monsters… there are many horrifying categories. Well I’ll bet you they’re not like this. If you aren’t good with gory thoughts then for the love of god don’t read this. Got it? Good. Then let’s begin. Yesterday night I had nightmare, but this was like nothing like I had seen or even thought up before. It looked like I was watching through a medium quality cam - quarter. It took place in a school, but it was not mine. I remember four scenes, one person in each. All of them were kids about 13 -15. They were wearing blue school uniforms. I will now tell you how it started. Earlier that day I had watched a popular youtuber talk about how people that knew who he was walked up to him and talked to him and gave him presents and letters. He talked about how he was honored to receive that kind of treatment. Well, I dreamed about that video and then stopped seeing it. If I saw anything at all after the video cut out I don’t remember it. But I do remember a girl starting to talk, like she was narrating a letter to that person. She talked about how much she liked to watch him on YouTube for a while. It was actually kind of touching. And then everything went wrong.
The girl’s voice doubled like two or three people reading from the same script. I started seeing empty classrooms through that cam – quarter view I was talking about. At first I felt suspicion and confusion about what I was seeing as the “screen” flipped through cameras in different classrooms, and then I felt undeniable, crippling fear for no reason. Then I saw her. The “screen” flipped to a camera in a classroom with no people in it, except for a single girl writing on a piece of paper. I immediately assumed this was the girl writing the letter and I was hearing her say it in her head as she wrote it. The voices were still talking. Then a long hanging light directly above her head silently came off its wires and started floating down very, very slowly even though it was still turned on. I didn’t hear it unbolt, but I noticed it alright, and so did the girl. As soon as she somehow realized the light was moving the voices stopped immediately and the girl looked up in surprise. The light just floated there as she examined it. Even though it was at least a yard and a half above her she slowly reached up towards it. She didn’t reach it of course but her hand just hung there for a few moments as if she was reaching out to a lover, wanting them to hold her hand in theirs. Suddenly the light shot down so fast I didn’t see it until it landed on her head so hard it broke the chair and her body fell to the ground. The light smashed strait though the desk and hit her body. I heard the crack of bones and looked at her head, wondering why she was just laying there. I didn’t see any blood on the ground, so it didn’t smash her brain. I then realized that the impact must have snapped her neck and had killed her instantly. As whatever was controlling the light continued to attempt to crush her body more and I assumed to draw blood, the “screen” switched to a different camera, as if bored with the carnage.
The camera I was now looking out of was in another empty classroom, but was in a different place, somewhere in the front of the room, possibly behind the teacher’s desk. I had no idea if this was at a different time or just after I watched the first horrifying event. Before I had a chance to think about what I had just witnessed, a boy in the hall outside the room walked by the open door, completely unaware of what was about to happen. I was still feeling more scared than I had felt in the entirety of the nearly fifteen years of my life. Everything was completely silent, even the boy’s footsteps. At least that is until the head of a small lamp flew across the room quite fast and relocated the boy’s brain and skull. There was a lot less blood on the wall than I would expect. The boy was, of course, completely limp and had a blood splattered hole in his head. As I watched these events I wasn’t even thinking anything, just watching, unable to do anything, I couldn’t even blink. I wondered if I even had a body. These thoughts didn’t help with the fear. All of this crossed my mind in a few milliseconds as the “screen” switched to a different camera.
The camera I was now looking out of was in a classroom similar to the first. It was in relatively in the same position but looking in a different direction: straight ahead to the front of the room. It was also empty until a person walked in (I couldn’t tell if it was a boy or a girl) and strolled to the front of the classroom behind the teacher’s desk. The “screen” flipped to a closer camera to get a better look at them as something small flew towards them and hit them in the back of the knee. They fell to a quick kneel in shock and pain and confusion just before the teacher’s desk flew at them with no warning, slammed into them and pressed them to the wall rather hard, keeping them pinned down. They suddenly let out a high-pitched scream of what I now assume to be either pain or fear. They sat there for a full second screaming until the head of the projector camera shot at bullet speed at the kid’s head and suddenly replaced what used to be their brain. They went limp, letting their head lay in a mixture of blood and brain. The “screen” didn’t switch but looked at this scene for a few moments, as if whoever was controlling it was contemplating something over this image, but then brushed it off and switched to the next camera.
Now I must warn you that this one is the worst. It’s the most brutal thing I’ve ever born witness to. I advise that you skip this paragraph, even if you aren’t bothered by this kind of stuff. But that’s up to you. If you wish to continue reading then brace yourself. This scene looked just like the first one I saw but was slightly closer to the desk that the first girl would have been in. but it was a different girl this time. I believe she had two ponytails on the back corners of her head and appeared slightly younger than the first girl. She didn’t seem to be doing anything, just sitting there. I waited filled with more fear than ever, like I subconsciously knew what would happen. I sat there feeling the suspense, longing to just get it over with, but what I had guessed was far from what I was about to see. I didn’t have to wait long. Her head and shoulders slammed down on the top of the desk with a loud BLAM and I heard her cry of surprise. Whatever was holding her proceeded to push down on her so hard the desk cracked in half and she landed on the ground face down. She shrieked as it picked her up, turned her around and threw her back down again so she was face up and I could see her face. It showed nothing but fear. Then the most brutal thing I’ve ever seen took place right in front of me. She started screaming so I assumed that the unknown force was crushing her, but it was much more than that. She screamed louder and more intensely as her body started to shrink a little bit, and then her innards suddenly became her outards as everything from her neck down started to empty onto the floor through her sides and stomach. This continued until her body looked like a deflated balloon. This force, this thing wasn’t doing anything to her head, somehow keeping her alive so she would continue to scream in pain and beg for her life. “HELP ME!!!” *CRUNCH* “PLEASE, NO…STOP!!!” *SPLAT*. My view faded out of the static and blur of the camera and made it look like I was seeing it with my own eyes. The thing that was doing this stopped and waited a few seconds as tears streamed down her face while she lay in a big puddle of blood, organs and shattered fragments of bone. I forced myself to look at her face and saw hopelessness. She had given up hope of getting out alive, now she just wanted it to end, and the force obliged with one last, brutal, horrifying act. Then it hit me. This thing’s goal wasn’t to kill her. It wanted to make her suffer. That’s why it seemed unsatisfied with the earlier fatalities, why it was keeping her alive. The pieces of her broken desk suddenly shattered into tiny shards – each about the size of my pinky and ring finger side – by – side – and started to float around her. They all slowly pointed toward her and shot into her deflated body. She screamed the most painful scream I have ever heard, and I had no idea how she was still alive but it clearly wasn’t an accident. The shards of sharp wood and metal filled up her body again by forcing themselves through what was left of her skin. This removed the last of her torso’s flesh and left nothing but bare muscle, bones, and holes. She screamed and screamed and screamed in pain and horror. I got a close up of her face when her eyes shot as open as they could go and she let out one last scream as (I suspected) the shards started to slide up her neck and towards her skull; but they were slow, as if enjoying every moment of it. Finally, a small piece of consciousness slipped into my brain and I wanted to help her. I was just about to do something – ANYTHING at all, weather it was move or shriek or look away, I was going to do something. And then everything went black.
For a millisecond it was total darkness, and then, in simple white text, a single word appeared: THYE’S. It flashed for a split second and then my eyes snapped open. I sat there for a few seconds, unable to move. My brain didn’t do anything for a short time, I wasn’t even thinking, just staring at the roof. And then I sat up and slammed my fist on the light switch. I looked around franticly for any floating objects, still disoriented by the pure fear that filled every atom of DNA in my body. I checked the clock; three or four in the morning. After that I had to force myself to stay awake, no matter how tired I was. I really don’t know if those images will ever leave my thoughts for good. Those screams, those terrified faces. It won’t seem as bad when I write this, but you didn’t see what I saw. You didn’t hear what I heard. But there are still mysteries about this nightmare. What does THYE’S mean? Is THYE a person? Probably that invisible thing that killed those kids. I don’t know for sure, but I do know this… I’m totally messed up in the head. No sane human has that in their brain. But at least I feel pity for those children. They didn’t even see it coming. Pray that you never learn what lies in the darkest corners of your mind, because I didn’t write three pages of gore for fun. I really had this nightmare and I feel like it means something, but that’s for another time. Now it’s time for me to go try again to get some sleep. I hope that you got something out of this unless it was pleasure, because if that’s the case then you need to see someone. I would like to thank you for taking the time off your hands to read this. Sweet dreams.

I made a clip brush around it and set its zhlt flags to opaque (the one that blocks light) so it can cast a shadow. I noticed that when I use vluzacn's zhlt, the model will look dark if the brush above has an opaque texture instead of a transparent (talking about the net).

The thing is, I wanna have the transparent brush cast its shadows and shit AND make the model look dark. I tried messing with the render modes but nuttin changed :(
User
SO I'm using Vluzacn's ZHLT tools coz it makes lighting look better and also adds some shadows with transparent textures. The thing is, I want a model to look dark but I don't know how to do it. With the default compiler I could do it but with the new one it looks bright.

The best cure for ___ is a large ___.

Am I doing it right?


Not quite. Most of the white cards are in the form article-noun like "A thing" and it doesn't make sense to say "a large a thing."

Sometimes the white cards are plural, like "snakes" but it still doesn't work to say "a large snakes."

The white cards are either nouns, with optional articles and adjectives, or they are present continuous verbs, like "jumping up and down" or "finding out my first husband was still alive."

Every once in a while we'll accept one that doesn't fit in these categories b/c it just happens to work in a lot of black cards. But that is rare.

So! I had a dream last night where Nez, atojamz, and myself were at someone's house late at night when we decided rather abruptly that the most important thing we needed to be doing at that moment was to be getting burgers at Dick's. But as it was a dream, nothing is easily or readily accomplished.

First, we exited the house, and were immediately in a city with a lot of brick corridors and alleyways. There were chain-link fences surrounding the perimeter and even covering some spaces where there were already walls, as well as blocking off patchy spots thirty feet in the air (though still connected to a base). Worse, it wasn't a matter of walking down one street or another to get there, but there were gates built into the fences that were covered in chains and locks and only opened in one direction. Nez and AJ were trying to figure out whether we should go north through a waterway or south and around while I was trying to locate some wire-cutters with red plastic handles that I ultimately did nothing with and left jammed in a fence. Fortunately for us, as we decided to go the south route and use Nez's car, there were a bunch of people returning from the south after going clubbing or some such thing and we were able to sneak through some of the gates going the wrong way.

Of course, as we got to the car, the problems only increased. I was riding shotgun, AJ was in the back, and Nez was driving, but Nez also immediately got on the freeway going south which was wholly unnecessary. We soon realized that the problems stemmed from the fact that almost as soon as we got in the car and began driving, Nez started falling asleep. AJ and I were both yelling at him out of frustration with how irresponsible he was, less than the idea that any of us were in some real danger. We kept yelling at him and he kept falling asleep. Neither AJ nor I grabbed at the wheel Meanwhile, the freeway we were traveling on had several built-in gaps and jumps and we kept on rocketing off one after the other and landing on the other side, though it was becoming increasingly apparent that this sort of driving was not safe. Finally, on one of the last jumps, we went up and directly to the right. We did not go forward. The car did not turn. It just moved along its axis, to the right. We came crashing down into the courtyard of a mall with no significant damage to ourselves, the vehicle, or the surroundings. AJ and I decided this was as good a place as any to begin looking for snacks, but Nez was more worried about the pet rabbit he had been keeping in the car and possibly endangered, so AJ and I both immediately declared him to be stupid.

The end. Or the end of the relevant part of the dream.

Hammer shouldn't let you do it. When you delete the last brush in an entity, it should also delete the entity, but sometimes a ghost is left behind. It sounds like you did the right thing which was to just delete the empty entity.

Additionally, the compilers should probably just ignore an empty entity anyways, but, well, this is what we have to deal with. Have fun!

Hello folksers!

I am cvrrently trying to remake ovr website exotworking.com and I want to redvce it to a single page that contains all content in a side menv and in the main part, some kind of news feed.

I thovght that I'd jvst vse good old frames like this:



BVT! Tvrns ovt that frames don't really work anymore on modern browsers (or at least I didn't make it to get the scrolling to work. The scrollbars jvst never appeared, no matter what I did...) Bvt apparently, websites nowadays seem to vse some kind of new thing that works jvst as frames.

Do yov gvys know anything that yov can vse "jvst like frames"? The most important thing is that it allows scrolling and linkage between the "frames".

I don't know the answers. All I would do is guess and check until it works. But it's your map, so you do it!

There should be options in the entity for "reverse direction", "x axis" and "y axis". Try changing those to get it to do what you want.

Ok, Now I have another thing: In wally program, I want to create wad file that contains my texture:
1/ I have 2 photos. One of them, when I do 'paste as new' and write name of texture, the photo comes without colors or very ugly. Solution?
2/ the second photo it pastes normally, but when I add the wad file to hammer and add the texture and export and enter cs to play the map, the loading blocks at 'starting local game server'. Solution plz?

If haven't already, you should make an object like that into an entity.

Select the whole thing, Ctrl+T, and choose func_wall.

Anyone watched Attack On Titan? I keep hearing about it.

I've been watching it weekly and the corroborating with the manga (which is worse and doesn't develop as naturally somehow!). The show... the characters are a liiiittle flat at the moment, but the plotting and intensity are high-end and characters die constantly. There also have been a few occasions so far where I've thought the show was about to do some standard anime development thing only to throw everyone into the thick of it again. So I approve thus far, some six episodes in.

We have a few black cards that are total trainwrecks right now and I'll admit, some of that is my fault. I should have been testing things better from the get-go. I think that

could be fixed by changing it to

but I don't know if that would make it funny. I think it would just get it to make more natural a phrasing.

What apout them? Well, your point about chips being sometimes fries and sometimes chips is valid, w/r/t pairing with fish, but a lot of cultures have the notion of battering something and then frying it. The English may have more fun with it (there was a place I used to go to in New York called A Salt and Battery!), it's not really a phenomenon unique to them, they just had the resources (plentiful whitefish) to do right by it. And while I like a good finch and chips now and then, I don't feel like I crave it terribly often. Likewise, it's entirely dependent on fish and batter quality and people don't tend to do it up with seasoning, so it feels like it's something with only moderate expectations.

Full English Breakfast on the other hand is just a combination of so many other delightful things and without it we'd be eating croissants and drinking coffee like a bunch of a effete Frenchmen. I'll admit that it seems likely that other cuisines existed who did up their eggs or their sausages or whatnot as such, but there are definitely some categorically unique English-y things about it and the combination and timing of the meal seem novel.

Sometimes you go to lunch and everything goes wrong... hilariously wrong. Lunch today took a good 90 minutes and I laughed for about 45 of those.

We went to the new XO Chinese restaurant in Bellevue.

We were promptly seated in one of the private rooms, and that was the last thing that went right.

The menu was enormous, with at least 100 dishes. After a very long time, a waitress came and asked if we were ready. We were. But she didn't think so because we hadn't filled out the score-card indicating what we wanted. She said we had to fill it out and she'd be back. We never saw her again.

We filled it out almost immediately, but there was nowhere to put drinks.

Eventually a waiter showed up and snatched the score card. We had to beg him to slow down and let us order drinks. We asked for a couple of sodas and an Oolong tea and waters.

The onion-curry-pancake appetizer thing arrived and was delicious. But the appetizer plates and chopsticks were dirty and greasy. Like really greasy.

The sodas came out fine, plus a big pot of tea and FOUR teacups. They said it was jasmine but it tasted like Oolong. Weird. But no waters.

We asked for the waters again, and as long as most everyone was apparently having tea now, two more teacups. We got the SOME of the waters much later but never the teacups.

The manager poked his head in and informed me they were out of the noodles 'n' black bean sauce I ordered. This was annoying because we were forced to inscribe the order on the scorecard, without talking to the waitress. Ordering normally this would have been avoided. So I ordered the "Portuguese Squid Nightmare with Cheese" (as I'll call it) instead, because it was the only other thing I remembered from the menu.

The entrées came out one by one veeeerry slowly, and from different servers every time. The first victim got short ribs. They were supposed to be in a garlic sauce but they were in a honey sauce instead. They were extremely tough and difficult to eat. Victim 1 spent the rest of the meal picking the meagerest bits of protein off the bones.

The second victim got uncooked sliced potatoes with just a smack of pork lost inside. I don't know what it was called but we named it "Ham in a Haystack" since the pork part was needle-sized. It was almost inedible.

Victims 3, 4, and 5 all got Mongolian Beef. The server was extremely confused about who it was going to, and there was tons of unnecessary shuffling plates back and forth, and trying to hand a Mongbeef to someone who already had a Mongbeef. It was like Scooby-Doo.

The Mongbeef was the standard fare, and fortunately big enough to share with victims 1 and 2, who would have gone hungry otherwise.

Victim 4 asked for a side of rice. They asked if we were going to share. We asked how big the rice bowl was. They indicated "small." So 4 and 5 said they wanted one rice bowl each.

Then the weirdest server showed up with my "Portuguese Squid Nightmare with Cheese." Everyone had food but me, but he couldn't figure out who it was for. I just looked at him in disbelief before indicating it was mine. He then LEANED ALL THE WAY OVER victim 2, practically resting his chest on the "Ham in a Haystack" to hand me the Nightmare. There was AT LEAST 5 feet of clearance behind victim 2. He could have easily walked around. It was ultra bizarre. I couldn't stop laughing.

Then a waiter brought out ONE tiny bowl of rice and FIVE EMPTY BOWLS with soup spoons. I don't know what we were expected to do with those. I used one of the bowls to try the Oolong-jasmine tea.

The "Portuguese Squid Nightmare with Cheese" was actually pretty good and full of squid and cheese.

Epilogue:

Victim 2 took the haystack potatoes home, to finish cooking them for breakfast tomorrow.

I've been listening to Soul Coughing's "Michael Jackson" again and it has reminded me of one of my favorite lines in the whole thing... "Michael Jackson is lost in a sea of BIG PEOPLE."

I'm not quite awake enough to know how to make that grammatically work as a white card, "being lost in a sea of BIG PEOPLE" doesn't quite work, "a sea of BIG PEOPLE" doesn't convey that lost feeling, "losing yourself in a sea of BIG PEOPLE" also conveys something different...

The school district had to pay a lot of hush money to parents after the "_" incident in the science lab.

This one can take the definite article before the quotes, but unfortunately cards like 'a thing' sound weird with the 'a' left on. Still good though.
"The school district had to pay a lot of hush money to parents after the "specimens" incident in the science lab."

Sometimes the quotes seem like they're probably pointless:
"The school district had to pay a lot of hush money to parents after the "struggling with a police officer" incident in the science lab."

Maybe tag articles on white cards, and then have a 'ditch the articles' flag on black cards?

If man is a conflict of interest, then the devil is a quandary and God is the scary door.
If man is that urpy feeling like when you eat too much, then the devil is blocking the exit and God is a flood of emotions.
If man is a silly goose, then the devil is Satan's mother and God is a do-gooder.
If man is my latest perversion, then the devil is a feminine penis and God is the last thing I said.

TBH the philosophical cards kinda bug me. Some, like "There is no greater solitude than _ unless it is that of a tiger in the jungle." can be fun because they make silly nonsense, but I think we have just way too many of them.

I think the problem is that a lot of cards like "I ask that you judge me by _ I have made." simply lack a certain critical specificality.

The "no greater solitude" card is taken from Le Samouraï and appears on the screen as supposedly a quote from Bushido, though the quote itself is just bullshit the director made up, which is probably my favorite thing about the card.

We can possibly gain some context from not turning certain things into blanks, like that card that ended in "or fruit", the trouble is that they get really awkward to read back particularly when you're laughing from how the blank has played out. Maybe the solution is just to switch the position of the two, keeping the fruit but ending on the blank.

But yes, more cards that have a context.

Okay, I have gotten my compile time down with 50% on this map I'm making by me removing the solids that I left in the air with "NULL" on them(Great thing).

To the questions:
ALLOCBLOCK? What do I do to remove the % of usage on it? Honestly, everyone that has written an answer is telling me it could be:

WAD SIZE - I've only been using the huge wads because I wanted to have everything I could ever need ready for me. This problem will be removed for my next attempt to compile this map.
Scaling of the textures that I've used in my map, I will be honest and say alot of the 256x256 are maybe 0,5-0,3 of their original scale. Even tho me personaly I think it should just have an effect on light/bounce.

Amount of Entities? As in the picture I have right here:
you can clearly see my entity use is not that great.
BUT! I have binded plenty of solids into one func_illusionary - could this cause bugs? It shouldn't right? They are spread out on the map it's not just one big piece of solids.

Are there any commands to be able to get the AllocBlock to get more space?

CLIP brush usage? I always put it around my map because I think it's simple and very easy to block players from going wherever they are not allowed to.

Will I need another program like QuArK to be able to remove this problem?

Final question - for now: How do I get to these places? Like for example:
Warning: Ambiguous leafnode content ( EMPTY and SOLID ) at
---> (-2474,-3964,-16 )(-2467,-3963,24) <--- How do I get to these coordinates? Honestly theres just no way of finding out where the heck that is on my map?

---> in hull 0 of model 84 <-- Where the hell is my model 84 and how do I get to it aswell?

I prefer to think of Guu as a capricious trickster god. There's never even the slightest explanation as to what she is, but it all makes a lot more sense that way. Anyway, things get really serious sometimes in Jungle Guu, which I think helps balance out the extreme absurdity of every single thing that happens while Guu is around. There's a lot more going on in the show than "People dicking around in the Jungle", it just takes a while for it to start happening.

Stuff like how Weda seems like a totally shiftless, drunken fool of a mother for the comedic aspect of it causing problems for Hare. And then you find out WHY she's an alcoholic, and you're like... this isn't funny anmyore...

Kuroshitsuji is definitely one where the comedy aspect has no traditional straight man; it's really all about the interactions amongst the characters, which makes the eventual payoff that much better, realizing that the characters themselves aren't totally incompetent, they're just bad at their present occupations.

When I'm complaining about straight men in comedy anime, I don't mean to convey that they're universally a bad thing. In FLCL, Naoto is absolutely a straight man, but that has bearing in his character; he's in that awkward part of the teenage years where he's overly concerned about what people think of him, and he thinks that he knows everything about how the worlds works and how people should behave. It's an aspect of his personality, but it isn't the only aspect. I actually think Naoto is one of the most complex characters I've seen in a show given that a) the show is serious and not really serious and b) they rendered him better in six episodes than most shows develop characters in thirteen or twenty-six episodes. It's baffling really. Even his contradictions make sense given what context you have of him.

It's similar in Bakemonogatari. Araragi is the straight man, definitely, but in his case it also makes sense, given that he's the responsible, self-sacrificing, partially immortal one, AND it's tempered by him constantly doing whatever shady perverted thing he can get away with. He enforces some rules and stretches others because he can. He's also dealing with a wide and varied cast of characters, most of which also have moments where they have to be the serious one in their conversations with him (Shinobu, Senjougahara, Hachikuji, and Hanekawa all play that role at various points).

Watching Jungle Guu, at least through the first couple of episodes, Hare's defining characteristic is that he doesn't get Guu and what she's doing usually upsets him while the rest of the cast remains mostly oblivious. There's neither explanation nor variation, so Hare is just there to spell out everything that the audience is already seeing and knows. The reason the show still seems worth watching to me is that everything else that's happening around them, the things inside Guu, the weird shit in the jungle that's maybe a plant and maybe and animal but who knows, that's all still interesting even if the core interactions are predictable.

I'm not really interested in comedy. I mostly watch it because there's not much else. Two of my favourite anime are Phantom Requiem for the Phantom and Kuroshitsuji(Black Butler). Phantom didn't have barely any jokes at all, until later when a new character was introduced. That character is fucking amazing.

Kuroshitsuji's "comedy" comes from having terrible characters interract. There's some actually funny stuff in there, but when a serious anime goes "Lets put our main male character in a dress and try to make him seduce a guy" it's not really a positive thing.

I guess if you don't like it, you don't like it. I still think it's pure magic, though. Especially when Weda beats up those bank robbers... still makes my heart skip a beat.

No, I like it, enough to keep watching, I just think that the straight man trope is starting to bore me. It was the same thing when I was watching Cromartie High School and there was all that background commentary on whether or not anyone was going to point out that Mechazawa is a robot.

Aw man I was totally going to recommend the hell out of Bakemonogatari, seeing as how the initial run of this thread was before I became a Nisio Isin fanboy, but you're already watching them it seems. And you've hit up Katanagatari and I haven't watched enough of Medaka Box to formulate an opinion, though I hear that its "high school, slice-of-life" facade blows up later and it becomes a completely different show. Which seems like something Nisio Isin would do, I just don't have the patience to get to that point, or haven't yet

If you get into Durarara!!! and like the style then you should also hit up Ryohogo Narita's other adapted series, Baccano! The plot is that a few hundred years back someone on a ship sailing for the New World made a deal with the devil (or something that says it was the devil) and subsequently unlocked a formula for immortality. Crazy shit ensues and moving up to the modern era, more people become immortal, on purpose or on accident, and some of those are probably are too irresponsible to be immortal. Most of the characters are crazy at any rate and the Rail Tracer might be one of the most sociopathic (though entertaining) characters I've seen.

Its flaws: Like Durarara!!!, they opted for a limited-run adaptation of what was still an ongoing light novel series, so unlike Bakemonogatari, they had to tie shit up without resolving much of anything between the characters (there's just an arc or two) and who knows if they'll ever finish the damn thing.

The other flaw: it's jumpy. As in it spends a lot of time bouncing around between time periods and locations and while I appreciate the experiment, its purpose is obscured by its excesses.

aaronjer, upon realizing he's in a dream, finds the nearest pretty young thing and puts it to her. i, upon realizing i's in a dream, promptly do something to kill myself. i usually wake up. usually.

i haven't been posting anything recently because i have been dreaming somewhat ordinarily and mostly of people that i know which makes the context hard to relay.

I had a dream last night. In it, I was a mob hitman. I was a cold-blooded killer in a highly organized mafia that had a firm grip on the city I lived in. The mafia was notoriously more powerful than the police, did not hesitate to kill anyone who crossed them... and were strangely honest, fair and straightforward about it. Essentially there were three fatally important rules: You don't rat out the mob, you don't steal from the mob, and you don't attack anyone in the mob.

I had many homicidal encounters, one notable one in which I was only supposed to shoot one woman for informing the police about our activities. I almost couldn't believe it when I was told about it, as she had supposedly called the cops after seeing a few mobsters get rough with a businessman that wasn't paying his protection money. She practically commit suicide by ratting us out, and for something the police probably wouldn't even act on!

Once at her house, I got in quick and I shot her in the back. She never saw it coming, all was well... until her husband came home right as I was leaving. Upon seeing my car in the driveway, a dead-giveaway mobster town car, he already knew his wife was dead, and he was frantically calling the police. I was all, "Ah, come on! Whaddya gotta call the cops for, that's what did your wife in! Now I gotta shoot you too! I can't believe how stupid that was! I'm standing right here! With a gun!"

So I did kill him, although it was really more of a suicide. He was, however, coming home from the grocery store, and his daughter had been collecting comestibles from their SUV. Unfortunately for both of us, she decided to steal my car while I was busy phoning my bosses about things getting more complicated. I had left the car running with the keys in the ignition for a quick get away, but it had backfired on me fiercely. Since I had the dad's keys, I jumped in the SUV to chase her down and get back my boss's car. I knew there was barely any gas in my car, because I had been stupid and forgot to fill it up, so it was only a couple of miles before I caught up to her frantically trying to refuel at a gas station. Strictly following the rules would mean I'd have to shoot her too, since she stole the car, even though she had heard me yelling that all her dad had to do was 'nothing' if he didn't want to get shot. So I started yelling at her that all she had to do was 'nothing' if she didn't want to get shot, but I also wasn't quite cold-blooded enough to shoot a kid without hesitation.

I started telling her that I was going to try to get special dispensation from the bosses to let her off the hook, when, unfortunately for all three of us, two cops came to a stop at the gas station in their cruiser. The girl, obviously in a panic, got their attention whether she wanted to or not, and I had to quickly react and shoot both of the officers as well, as this wasn't going to go down any other way that didn't get me killed or imprisoned. At this point there was enough evidence splattered around the place from all four of us bleeding for various reasons that I decided I needed to do a quick clean-up job. Luckily, someone always kept a quantity of plastic explosives in the trunk of the car, so I decided to blow up the entire gas station... I didn't actually check to see if there was an attendant present, so I may have unintentionally killed even one more person. The girl, after both trying to run away and also use her phone (like seriously, why does everyone keep giving me reasons to shoot them!?) had annoyed me enough that I decided to replace the explosives in the trunk with her sans electronic communication devices. I drove away and set off the bomb, turning the whole scene into a crater, and the bodies of the officers into seared particulates.

The headquarters was a very lavish office building with heavily armed and well dressed guards standing in plain view of the woebegone police. I dragged the now exhausted, timid, and thankfully compliant girl up to see the most important wiseguy I could find. The don was out, but the consigliere was in, and that was good enough for me. I told him how crazy the simple whack job got, and how the girl only 'temporarily' borrowed my ride, so maybe I could just... not shoot her... if that would be okay? After silently staring at me during my long tale of adventure he suddenly looked very pleased. He told me he was surprised that I took initiative all the times I should, and that I came to him about the girl. I didn't even need to beg, he demanded I let the girl go immediately. According to him, icing a kid is bad for the public image, and not worth the minuscule chance she'd get us all pinched.

At this point I had time to think about what had happened, and I realized I'd unnecessarily blown up the girl's parent's SUV along with the gas station. It was almost brand new, and I didn't want nobody calling me cheap or irresponsible, so I gave her thirty large as the approximate value of the vehicle. Mind you, in my head this was just being an honest man, and the 'recently having killed her parents' didn't even factor into it. I told the girl she better suppress her family gene for committing suicide on the mob, and also told her if she wanted to come looking for vengeance it would be nice if she waited a few years until she was an adult, so that when I whacked her it wouldn't make me look like a son of a bitch.

Later on, I had a very interesting, if not incredibly frustrating conversation with a couple wiseguys. The mob suspected an associate of being up to something, we didn't know what, but we were looking into it. The twit had been sweating and twitching like crazy the last time a capo started talking to him, and he seemed like he was trying to avoid us altogether. So the three of us had a few words with him at his place of residence. We told him to stay home, not let anybody in, and not touch the phone. It was part keeping him from going on the lam while we checked out what he'd been up to, and part to see if he'd make a run for it, giving us no reason to doubt his ambiguous treachery.

We holed up in the attic of the house across the street with a high-tech x-ray scope sniper rifle, so we could shoot him as soon as he did what we expected him to, or we got called about him being a rat... or a thief... or whatever the hell he did. Now, these two jokers were made men, they had nothing to worry about. Even if they screwed the gig up they'd get a slap on the wrist a worst... but I wasn't made yet, even as hard as I was trying, so I had a vested interest in not cocking anything up. Seeing as these two had only begrudgingly agreed to be part of something as lowly as keeping an eye on possible rat, they weren't taking it very seriously. While we should have been quiet and attentive, we instead had an incredibly insipid conversation, it went something like this:

Me: "Alright, alright, so Vinnie, you're here to shoot the rifle, and I'm here to keep an eye out for trouble, but what's he doin' here?"

Vincent: "I'm not Vinnie you goof, dats Vinnie."

Me: "You're messing with me, the boss called you Vinnie not twenty minutes ago."

Vinnie: "Nah, we call me Vinnie, we call him Vincent."

Me: "Wait, you're both Vinnie?"

Vincent: "You got it all wrong, he's Vinnie, I'm Vincent.

Me: (Pointing at Vincent) But the boss called you Vinnie, I did not get you two confused. (pointing at Vinnie) You weren't even there!"

Vincent: "Yeah, so what?"

Me: "So what? So you're Vinnie too!"

Vincent: "What, you mean I shoulda corrected the boss? Forget about it!"

Me: "Well why's he gotta send both of you on the same job? Two guys he calls Vinnie? It's like a liability or somethin', gonna get the wires crossed!"

Vinnie: "The boss didn't send me, he doesn't even know I'm here."

Me: (exasperated) "Well then let's get back on track, whaddya doin' here, Vinnie?"

Vincent: "He owed me a favor, this rat could take hours to do somethin' stupid, and given the experience so far, I'd probably end up shooting myself before I shot him if I had to shoot the shit with your stupid ass the whole time."

Me: "Hey, if I knew this gig was a plus one I woulda brought a date, not some fat asshole, nothin' personal Vinnie."

Vinnie: "Hey! You want me to whack you or somethin'?"

Vincent: "C'mon Vinnie, you are a fat asshole, give the kid a break."

Vinnie: "Ah, forget about it!"

Me: "Hey, not to dampen this mood we got goin', but I've seen our rat walk by the window like half a dozen times while you been lookin' back at me. You gonna actually keep an eye on him or should I hold the rifle?"

Vincent: "Nobody touches this beauty but me. Not yet, I haven't even given her a name yet, and she's still a virgin!"

Me: "Alright, I won't touch your lady-friend, just keep your eyes on her or she's gonna get jealous."

Vinnie: (suddenly and very disbelieving) "I wasn't payin' attention, did you say Theresa's a virgin?"

Vincent: "Nah, the rifle not my girl."

Vinnie: "Ah, I was gonna ask you why she was wailing like banshee if you weren't, you know..."

Vincent: "Shut the hell up, Vinnie."

Vinnie: "Yeah, yeah."

Me: "Come on, you were lookin' through that scope for a total of six and a half seconds before you turned around and started jabbering to Vinnie again."

Vincent: (turning back to look through the scope) "Sorry, mom."

Me: "He get away yet?"

Vincent: "Nah, he's still scurrying about like a rat in a maze. I wish he'd sit still so I could shoot him more easy. Wait, you think he knows I'm up here, that we're gonna find somethin' out?"

Vinnie: "He'd have to be a real top-notch goof not to think we're watchin' his stupid ass."

Me: "Which makes him nervous, he's just nervous, a nervous guy is gonna pace whether or not he's a canary. Just keep an eye on him or he'll fly away!"

Vincent: "Whatever."

A minute goes by with Vincent actually watching the rat.

Vinnie: "I'm glad I had two cups a coffee before you picked me up."

Vincent: "Tell me about it, I'd fall right out the window if I'd skipped my fix."

Vincent has turned around again, I am glaring rancorously to no effect.

Vinnie: "Nothin' wakes you up like a black cuppa joe."

Vincent: "Black? Whaddya wanna knock yourself back out? You gotta make it smooth and sweet, somethin' to relax the hangover."

Vinnie: "Aw, come on, that's a woman's drink, don't tell me you drink it like that."

Vincent: "With two creams and two sugars or I'll go wild."

Vinnie: "You ain't kiddin'! I can hardly believe it, you iced more marks than I can count to and you drink it like that?"

Vincent: "Whassat gotta do with it? You're the nut job, drinkin' that swill, why dontcha just chew on the beans at that rate?

Vinnie: "Rather that then grow a pair of tits drinkin' what you drink."

Vincent: "You see, he's right, you are a fat asshole!"

Vinnie: "Well, maybe your new boyfriend can take you on a date when you've dolled yourself up with your lady drink."

Vincent: "You got bigger tits than Theresa, Vinnie, you're the one drinking the wrong kinda joe."

I cut Vinnie off before he can retort.

Me: "Oh my god, stop talking about tits or coffee or whatever and watch the fucking rat."

Vincent: "Hey, this is deep, we gotta figure this out."

Me: "We're gonna be deep underground if you let him get away."

Vinnie: "Nah, just you, we're made, we'll just say you messed it up."

Me: "Oh, that's just great, why don't you just shoot me now?!"

Vinnie: "I'm pullin' your leg! We wouldn't do that. Probably. Besides, he's not goin' nowhere, he's too busy stomping a track into his kitchen floor."

Me: "That'll be great comfort when the boss has my thumbs broken."

Vincent: "Stop changing the subject, new guy, you gotta break the tie."

Vinnie: "Yeah, it's gotta be black, right?"

Me: "Man I hardly even drink coffee, I don't fuckin' know."

Vinnie & Vincent: "What?!"

Vinnie: "This guy doesn't drink coffee? Where'd you find this asshole, Vinnie?!"

Vincent: "I-"

Me: "HEY! You just called him Vinnie! I knew it!"

Vinnie: "Wha- no I- you had me confused, you don't drink coffee, the hell is wrong with you?!"

Me: "It's just a drink, don't get so worked up about it."

Vinnie: "Ah, forget about it!"

Vincent: "Yeah, we'll have to ask the don, he'll set it straight, whaddya care what this cugine thinks, anyway?"

Vinnie: "Alright, alright, but I got another question."

Me: "I'm sure you do, Vincent, the rat, the rifle, at least pretend you give a shit!"

Vincent: (Turning back around to check on the rat again) "Ah, he's still there."

Me: "You sure?"

Vincent: "No, where the hell did he go?"

Me: "What?!"

Vincent: "Haha, gotcha!"

Vinnie and Vincent have a good long guffaw.

Me: "Remind me to knock out a few of your teeth when they confirm me, wiseguy."

Vincent: "You're welcome to try, if you want a free trip to the hospital."

Vinnie: "Damn it, I said I had another question, I'm gonna forget it!"

Vincent: "Alright, what?"

Vinnie: "So, you gotta think about this. But if you had to pick one, and one to be gone foreva, coffee or tea?"

Vincent: "What kind of a stupid ass ques-"

Vinnie: "No, no, no! You gotta look at the big picture, I ain't talkin' about you and me, I'm talkin' about the whole world."

Vincent: "That's still a stupid ass question, Vinnie, Tea can take a hike, everybody drinks coffee every day!"

Vinnie: "Sure, sure, here in America, but I said the whole world, Vince, you gotta really think about it!"

Vincent: "Alright, I thought about it, and you're an idiot."

Vinnie: "You know how many people need tea like we need coffee! Fuckin' China and the Brits, that's gotta be half the world!"

Vincent: "China and England aren't half the world, Vinnie.

Vinnie: "I was givin' an example or somethin', gimmie a break. But you gotta admit, those Brits would be jumpin' off Big Ben by the millions if they lose their tea. S'why I'm sayin' you gotta really think about."

Vincent: "Where do you come up with this shit? Alright, new guy, coffee is more important than tea. Vinnie's an idiot, right?

Me: "Look, I told you I don't even drink coffee."

Vincent whips around, rifle and all.

Vincent: "You're siding with this son of a bitch?!"

Me: "Whoa! I'm not siding with nobody, I just don't give a shit, Vince, point that thing somewhere else!"

Vincent: "Nah, I'm just messin' with you again!"

Vinnie and Vincent have another hearty guffaw.

Me: "For the love of baby Jesus, could you quit yappin' and keep an eye on the rat for more than ten seconds?!"

Vincent: "Nah, it doesn't matta."

Me: "What?"

Vincent: "The boss texted me five minutes ago, he's no rat, he's just nervous."

Me: "Then what have we been doin' here?!"

Vincent: "Talkin' about coffee and tits and shit, whaddya think?"

Vinnie: "Yeah, we gotta figure this stuff out, it can't be all about whackin' a rat."

Me: "Can I go back to having a shootout with the cops? At least then I knew what the hell was going on."

Vinnie: "You had a shootout with the cops?"

Vincent: "And he blew up a gas station."

Vinnie: "That was you?!"

Me: "Yeah, no big deal, there was blood, bullets and bodies everywhere, I didn't have time to clean it the slow way, so I just made a crater out of it.

Vinnie: "Damn it, I stop at that place for coffee! Why you gotta mess things up? I oughta pop you one!"

Me: "You're not serious."

Vincent: "He's catching on, Vinnie, I think we need a new mark."

Me: "Hey, don't get me wrong, you had me those other times, most people can't pull one over on me like that."

Vincent: "I think we just got a compliment from Mr. by-the-books here, look out the window, are pigs flyin'?

Vinnie: "Nah, just canaries."

Me: "Oh, shut up."

That's not a thing you ever do. You draw ten cards and then put them in the three empty slots at the top depending if it's a pick 1, 2 or 3.

When you're the czar you wait for everyone to play, or take too long, and then hit the call it button and choose a winner.

The scoreboard on the right indicates how many cards each player currently has in play, so you know when to call it.

Awarded points can be spent on the daily designated victuals, confections and provisions, assuming the stock has not been depleted by previous players.

The world is enough to hold me to the ground, but only by my own allowance, as I am not beholden to gravity and atmosphere.

You can trade with humans for whips, you can request them specifically from the diplomat. If you don't have a human diplomat showing up with caravans, that is a bug, and you should use the dfhack command "fixmerchants" so you have one.

Also, my current fortress is built into a completely flat cliff face that is FORTY FIVE blocks tall. I can't wait to start dumping goblins off the top. Also, I had a cyclops attack me right while a massive forest fire had accidentally started... stupid fire imps. He managed to blunder his way into my fortress, screaming in pain and with every part of his body melting. It collapsed onto a cage trap and was captured. While still on fire I had it brought to my drowning chamber, where I put it out, but not out of it's misery. It is now my prisoner, that I occasionally bash with light-weight minecarts for the lulz. One thing should be made perfectly clear. HE HAS NO SKIN. It all melted off in the fire. He is in constant severe agony, and I will never let him die.

A general update into the affairs of Skintomb:

* There was an ambush, though not much to the ambush. In my experience an ambush consists of at least two squads of goblins, but this time there was only one and it consisted of four lashers and a swordsgoblin. It was over pretty quick, but I was disappointed because the lashers were carrying silver scourges whereas silver whips are where it's at. I have to continue to postpone training my lashers or pikedwarves due to lack of supplies. [You can't build those two weapons natively, only steal from corpses]
* Two new artifacts, or maybe three? Two dwarves flipped out and made wood earrings. Now I make them make bolts fast. I also got an artifact level left leather yak glove. Just the left glove. That means archer armor, I guess. And a high master armorer moved in so things are looking up there.
* Current military of legends: 6 axes, 6 spears, 5 hammers [HAMMER], 6 swords, 4 maces. The marksdwarves are all between five and ten and suck. One of the speardwarves is now described as "basically unbreakable", which I've never seen before. And good thing too, because she's susceptible to disease.
* I have native gold now, which means I have all the relevant ores and minerals to do as I fucking please. Incidentally, before I set off to do anything in the fortress I made a copy of it, mostly because it was called SkinTomb, so if ever anyone wants a fortress that seems to have every type of metal and a whole lot of cocaine, I could post it somewhere.

Overlapping brushes are not a problem unless you are building the map by hand. I'm not sure the boxing you are talking about... there is supposed to be an outside area, if that's it.
Overlapping brushes, with textures on the same planes, sometimes results in a "shimmering" effect when observed in game as both textures try to render.


This definitely should not be possible unless one or both belong to an entity.

Thothie said:
It also sometimes results in compiler issues. When the compiler does discard one face or the other, it tends to do so in random fashion, making the texture consistency a bit odd.


I agree, but insofar as the generator put them both there, it doesn't really have a preference either. If a human is making it, he/she does.

Thothie said:
The sides of the map being open tends to result in mobs wandering off the cliff edges, and all winding up outside. Easily resolved with a func_monsterclip of course, just seems a bit odd.


Hmmm I didn't think of that. The outside area is a recent addition (relatively) just to see what would happen. And to make things less claustrophobic.

Thothie said:
By "boxing", what I mean is the map appears to have the all too common newbie mapper mistake of being placed inside a giant box to prevent leaks. Now, given the way the map is setup, I'm fairly certain it wouldn't require this to avoid leaks (at least if not for the open sides), it's just the thought I had when first seeing it. This is, again, just odd, and not an actual problem, unlike the overlaps.


OK, that makes sense.

Definitely agree. It would be much better to have as many different algorithms included as possible.

Black bronze processes postponed, I forgot that you need gold for that. GOD.

Today, I acquired a type of artifact which is new to me.

The cool thing about artifacts (unless the dwarf is possessed of course) is that they will give their maker legendary skills in whatever task they were working in, meaning high speeds and improved quality. While a lot of artifacts aren't directly practical, having a guy who can whip out masterful beds or furniture can come in handy for keeping dwarves happy. Likewise, I lucked out in getting a legendary weaponsmith because it means better multipliers on the attack. If I had a legendary armorsmith, it would mean multipliers on the deflect, ideally. Another weird thing is that you can end up with both non-native materials and non-native weapons, so that weaponsmith that's off his nut just made a yak bone blowgun instead of a steel hammer.

This is the artifact now in my possession:

Quote:
This is a Cassiterite mechanisms. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is encrusted with oval Cassiterite cabochons, oval gneiss cabochons and briolette cut rubicelles and decorated with palm. This object is adorned with hanging rings of cassiterite and menaces with spikes of cave spider silk, puple spinel, and ilmenite.
On the item is an image of Rith Swordmiles the dwarf and dwarves in Cassiterite. Rith Swordmiles is surrounded by the dwarves. The artwork relates to the appointment of the dwarf Rith Swordmiles to the position of general of The Ancient Canyons in 1.
On the item is an image of wild strawberries in llama wool.

It is Zizcunrungak, "The Reticent Skunk." Cassiterite, of course, is an ore that you smelt into tin. DWARVES,

I've never had a legendary mechanic before or anything of that sort, but I suppose it's practical as higher-grade mechanisms are more likely to hit and not jam. Also I could put my legendary silver spike in it and just have this trap that everyone admires. Prior to this, I had a perfect garnet as my artifact, so I'm now cutting gems at the highest levels.


This doesn't really go anywhere, but yeah, the Dwarves come from The Ancient Canyons. The Goblins are "The Hate of Shimmering" (gotta steal all those shiny things that they should not offend thee). The Humans are "The Complex Empire" (don't even try to understand it) and the Elves are "The Hardy Pack" and I hope they are in some inhospitable clime.

Turns out I can be sieged!

The Goblins sent an army of thirteen bowmens and one swordsmens. My particular encounter was less gorey and amusing than aaronjer's, but single targets tend to get more violence than multiple targets.

The goblins killed a dog upon arriving, maybe more than one dog, I'm not sure. The army itself right now is small-ish, I have two axes, three maces, two swords, two spears, and five marksdwarfs.

A few good things happened: One was that a couple of my marksdwarves apparently didn't realize that crossbows are not melee weapons (no I haven't been danger-rooming them). One ran up intending to smash a goblin with his crossbow and was stabbed and killed almost immediately. It was then that my army, which was positioned nearby, realized that the Goblins were there. Another marksdwarf was incessantly trying to beat goblins in the face with the crossbow and it almost never worked.

The other major good thing: a goblin bowman got his left foot, then his right foot, then his left arm, then his right arm all cut off by the same swordsdwarf in quick succession and the remainder of his life was spent with the dwarves alternating between trying to kick, stab, of bash the rest of his legs off.

The rest is standard dwarfiness. A speardwarf had a page and a half of fucking goblins up WHILE CARRYING HER INFANT CHILD. A macedwarf broke both arms of a goblin using only her shield. One of the militia captains did worse, killing a goblin using only the shield and the occasional kick or scratch with the finishing blow being jamming the shield through the skull because dwarves. An axedwarf punched through a goblin's head, twice. Another goblin was more or less punched to death. One had its head scratched open until it shattered which is what is this I don't even Etc. Etc.

Not even Google could get me to the Expert Mode commands..
Also: Sorry for being such a pain in the *** but, practice makes perfect..

What about the -nowadtextures command btw? > The one's included are the ones from the Original maps and the HALF-LIFE & CSTRIKE.wad amirite?
This is what makes me nervous: Does this merge them and include all of them into this map or does this add them all into +size on my compiling? I hope not.. I don't really believe so either, but I'm here to learn.

1. That looks like a lot of lights, but it shouldn't do anything but slow down RAD. I don't know why expert mode would make a difference for lighting. The blackness you were seeing is probably caused by something else.

OTOH you really shouldn't need that many lights. Have less & brighter ones, and rely on natural sources of lights and light-emitting textures, if you can.

2. If you have leaks, you need to fix those before fixing anything else. Leaks will cause every other problem, including MAX_PATCHES.

It is OK to make your brushes bigger, so that they intersect. This is only a problem if you get texture fighting from 2 surfaces in the same plane, and that is only a cosmetic problem. It won't slow down compiles or cause errors.

If you are leaking, try loading the Pointfile in Hammer. The Pointfile path may be confusing but it WILL go thru your leak at some point.

You should make your logs and beach chairs into func_walls so that they don't get in the way of VIS. VIS only has to worry about world geometry.

Just remember that func_walls do nothing to stop leaks. func_walls have to be fully contained by world geometry.

---

Your compile log shows no leaks. If you have a leak, BSP will say something like **LEAK LEAK LEAK**. You don't need to check in game for leaks. The game doesn't even know if you have leaks.

---

Also you didn't run VIS. You should at least run a fast vis every time you compile.

---

You also have a lot of WAD files. You really should merge them and use -nowadtextures with CSG to pack them into the BSP. Even for
the builtin ones.


BTW: MAX_PATCHES means you have too much surface area to light. There is only so much lighting surface area information that can fit in a BSP.

MAX_PATCHES is usually caused by a large map or shrunken textures. Setting -chop to a high number like SRAW said will decrease the lighting resolution, which uses less patches. But the lighting won't be as detailed.


Oh yeah and DON'T BOX YOUR LEAKS.

You are better off just keeping a leak than boxing it. Boxing causes even more MAX_PATCHES then a leak alone.

The reason that leaks are bad is because they prevent the compilers from deleting the outside of your map, which saves a lot of space, frames and patches.

If you box, you still end up with the inside AND outside of your map (like a leak) but EVEN WORSE you also compile in the inside of the box! No!!


1. Yeah but theres a few more of those lightbulbs than you see in the picture unfortuanetely.. I will try and use the "fade" texture and use it as lightning instead of all these pointlights and see if would change the outcome of my compiling in anyway.

And YES actually! When I compiled with VHE without expert mode and without VIS(I think it was.. or RAD.. been a few weeks ago since I tested..) the inside of the tunnels & sewers all were Bright as day(which was in my opinion really sweet for the gameplay). But since I got the FPS drops I ofcourse had to go from Normal compiling to Expert Compiling.

If you think I have many now you should have seen before.. JEEZ. Like 400 of them.(Got kinda lazy and CTRL + C was great). But I narrowed it down to about.. 50-80 now. But I will try this "LESS & BRIGHTER" way you mentioned if my "fade" experiment fails, which it problaby does.
I'm so new to the Lightning effects I'm kinda scared to use many since you can't preview before compiling. Old programs are old..
Trying to rely on the Light_enviroment as much as possible, and it worked great before my Sewers & Tunnels were added. + the LEAK that is emerging from the Sewer in some weird matter.

2. I have gone through the map as narrow as I have been capable to do, and the only leakage must be the Sewer, nothing else could cause it(I think........).

I will try this Pointfile thingy and see if it can fix my problem, I'm quite sure it will show the problem(s).
Thank you for that btw!

I will make the logs to func_walls aswell!

Thanks for telling me everything about the MAX_PATCHES problem btw! There's alot of stuff to learn from VHE but since the program is so old all the tutorial websites have pretty much died off. And asking someone for a very specific thing is hard to get a good answer!

About the leak problem I had NOOOOOOO clue about that, thanks alot for the details on those particual problems. I hate leaks so badly lol. Destroying my map(s)!

Hello oldschool mappers!

First of all I wanna say I'm a huge fan of your maps SuperJer(If you're gonna read this) and thanks alot for the things you've done for the CS mapping community!

I've been into VHE for a long time, but never released any maps due to small problems and the extreme details that I desire for perfection in my maps.(No I'm not a maniac just too lazy for final polishing lulz)

My hardware :
Windows 7 (64-bit)
8GB of DDR3 Memory(Wish VHE could've used all of it)
3.4 Ghz Quadcore AMD Processor
1024 MB HD Radeon 5770 Graphic Card (Two of them!)
That should be all you need to know?

These pictures are my HELP to you:

http://tinypic.com/r/20jk07n/5

http://tinypic.com/r/jg5x7k/5

http://tinypic.com/r/314xvgg/5

Basicly I need help on TWO things:

Exceed MAX_PATCHES solution
Answer to :: NUMBER THREE :: <-- You will understand when scrolling down.

Anyway.. PROBLEM:

I almost know what causes the problem in this map im developing:
1. Showed in picture one(The Sewer and top/front/side y/x angles)
You can see I have quite a few "LIGHT" entities, I had these put up all over my Sewer and my Caves after I compiled in Expert mode and noticed these we're all black instead of when I compiled in Normal mode and they were still light(but huge FPS drops due to VIS problems(obviously duuuhh). But honestly I don't think these should be able to cause any problem they should instead make the map easier to compile no matter Normal nor Expert mode, am I right?

2. Showed in the second picture with different screens and numbers in it you can see:

:: Number ONE ::
Shows the cave(Just a normal one with "LIGHT" entities ofcourse(Can't walk through caves in total darkness)(Should not cause problem..)
THIS IS WHAT I THINK CAUSES THE PROBLEM(Exceed Max_Patches)
:: Number TWO :: shows my Sewer(Again) but from the outside, my friend told me he saw leaks(he tested the map with 1600x1200 resolution)
So I just put these "walls" all around the sewer to prevent the leakings from accuring(Which before I put them there did only cause small fps drops and you could ofcourse see through the sewer which is not okay..)
Honestly this is what I think is the "bad thing" in my compiling, I compiled for 9 hours and VHE still had not finished.. Before I did this, put the light entities, the umbrellas and chairs at the beach + volleyboll net it took just about 1 hour to compile)
Remember I have Windows 7 64-bit.. (don't know if this can cause troubleshoot problems)

:: Number THREE ::

Here you can see bit by bit how I have built a part of the cave, what I want to know from this picture is that this should cause alot of "angles" for VIS and other programs to have to use alot more power and use up alot more memory, yes or no?
And if I want to make ALL of these color marked walls into ONE wall(That would cause ALOT less memory usage and angles to be compiled right?): HOW do I do so?
Just mark them all and "Tie To Entity" > Func_wall?

:: Number FOUR ::

Logs, logs and more logs, these I have heard could cause problems(since VHE is old and... OLD..) to RAD / VIS et.c. because of the angles/shapes/sizes and so on, but it did not cause any problems at all when I compiled before the "Exceeded MAX_PATCHES" so this I seriously doubt could cause anything but MINIMUM lag every 3000 years.

:: NUMBER FIVE ::

Shows the Umbrellas and beach chairs(This small thing could cause any problem at all? I seriously doubt it myself..)

:: NUMBER SIX ::

These walls are straight against the Sewer so there should not be any possibilities for leaks, should there? I just don't get why it would.. Then again I'm no rocket scientist. There was leaks as I mentioned before when I didn't have the walls. Me personally I have 640x320 resolution when I play CS so for me it didn't show any leaks what so ever. But 1600x1200 needs more juice we all know that.

:: NUMBER SEVEN / EIGHT / NINE ::

Shows what options I have on and which messages I get.
(If these could be to any help)
-----------------------------------

I will mention it again: Compiling only took about 1 HOUR before I did these things:
Added the Walls to the sewer to prevent leaking hopefully.
Added the Umbrellas, beach chairs and volleyboll net
Added the "LIGHT" entities in my Cave & Sewer from total darkness

Either all of them, or some, or just ONE of them are causing this problem I personally can't rule out the bad thing. Perhaps you can?


------------------------------------


Alright, down to the COMPILING AREA!

This is what VHE 3.5 Compiler tells me when I run it with these Options(Showed in picture 9.)
Take in consideration I do run the "final" compiling in Expert mode and not normal mode..

You should be ashamed for not listening to her story in the first place. Anyways, there was one funny thing with me, I was with my sister in the UW, and we were there when everyone was in class, so it was empty. Then some weird dude came up to us and told us that a triangle is the greatest form of friendship and some shit, then I told my sister to run, and I shouted at him "Fuck off faggot", no kidding.

Exactly! I think. I wouldn't say it was wrong, so much as it is... a model, that, although not true, is accurate. Y'know what I am going to bed, because I think I have said the same thing several times now. I am, in fact, saying the same thing as 18 months ago. I've read through the thread. I'm an insufferable prick :(
User
Not getting it is fine. The concept of a minimum temperature is a quantum effect, somewhat to do with the fact that a particle with zero temperature would have zero energy which would imply several things, all of which are infinite. We don't like infinite, as a general rule.

The CMBR has a temperature, it's about 3K. I think. That is not what Aaronjer is talking about. (Also, re: /sarcasm: I misinterpreted )

Fun fact! The hottest and coldest places in our solar system exist on none other than our planet! That's cool. Also, the average density of the universe is approximately one hydrogen atom per cubic meter, which is to say some 10^24 less dense than air at STP. You can safely conclude, therefore, that anybody you meet is a statistical anomaly.

Aaronjer, you might want to look at the Michelson-Morely experiment, it is very interesting. As regards a variable speed of light... there is a theory which suggests that actually mid sentence I have decided I am thinking of the wrong thing. Never mind!

zjamz: the experiment came first, kind of. A similar one did anyway. This necessitated new theory, not the other way around. The experimental result is all the proof you need that it happens, because, well, it does. This isn't the same as saying that the experiment proves the theory, because it only does not disprove it; however given the large body of experimental evidence so far acquired for QM it is held as accurate and correct by the vast majority of scientists. It is as accurate and precise as a measurement of the distance from New Yoik to London differing from the "true" value by the width of a human hair.


This final edit is somewhat my own opinion, but whatever.
It doesn't really matter, in the end, what is "really happening" in these experiments. All we can do is experiment -> measurement -> theory -> test -> refine, endlessly. There is a theory in which you can treat sound moving through solids as a particle, called a phonon. Now, we know that it ain't true. It's atoms vibrating. But it doesn't mean that this phonon cannot have a mass, a velocity, energy, and so on. And using this phonon theory you can predict very well the movement of sound through a solid. The model works - that is all we can ask of it. Anyways, as I said that's the way I see things. I've actually pretty much stopped doing science now, I graduated last summer and have moved onto a postgrad in high performance computing instead, so my thoughts are not necessarily the most coherent, accurate or indeed correct.

My favorite way to look at quantum mechanics is as thus:

"Quantum mechanics contains a set of scientific observations that so often defy logical or rational explanation that they are, at least for now, indistinguishable from magic."

Basically, trying to make sense of it is pointless until we make cooler science machines. It would be like cavemen trying to figure out atomic structure, no matter how hard they try they lack the tools.

One of my favorite unexplained universal properties? The base temperature of the universe is not zero. This is without background radiation or anything like that, with absolutely nothing we can detect present, it is still not zero. Which probably just means there's something there and we just can't detect it... whatever it is.

There's some debate about what the actual base temperature is... but the most enjoyable thing about it is that getting things below that temperature breaks physics completely, and the most demented shit starts happening. Like the apparent effect of gravity and solidity of objects just kinda turning off. Shit starts passing through shit and floating around. It's pretty fun. Electrical resistance also seems to not exist at those temperatures, so it's incredibly useful and somewhat explainable, and not just silly (but fun) like quantum stuff usually is.

SRAW said:
and also when these scientists talk about models of electrons and atoms and whatever etc... does that mean that we may not know the true nature of them, but that these models simply describe how they behave?

That's all models are. Models. You can discuss what might "really" be happening, but when it comes down to it you have a model and an experiment. If the model predicts the outcome of the experiment, what else can you do?

That said, various folks have suggested ideas for what might be "actually happening" (a phrase I am not entirely comfortable with). You might be interested in the Many Worlds interpretation, the Copenhagen interpretation, Feynman's sum-over-histories interpretation... There are lots. Quantum mechanics is only concerned with the fact that things like subatomic particles electrons and protons etc. are not necessarily waves, nor are they necessarily particles. They can appear to have some of the properties of both, depending on how you observe them, but ultimately they are neither.

They key point in all this is that the double-slit experiment is weird if you think an electron (or indeed a photon) is a particle. If you assume it's a wave, whatever that might mean, there's no problem! Of course if you then go do a different experiment involving gold foil and a monochromatic source of light (the Photoelectric Effect) then you have to assume that photons are actually particles. As I said, it's weird if you assume they are one or the other. Thinking of it as some third thing with properties of both is better.

There is no real definitive proof that they exist in all states, hence it being a theory; the slit experiment attempts to add some proof.

One thing that's very counter-intuitive is that, in the newer stuff, you can have even less world brushes. If you have more than 6 or so world brushes per room, things will go to shit.


So what you are saying is, Valve made this game?
User
Warning: the tools for the newer stuff (CS:GO and L4D2 at least) can be even buggier. Or at least the bugs change more often.

If you start mapping for newer games like these, make SURE to check out how Valve made their maps. There are examples.

Having reread your post in a similar late-night frame of mind, I'd have to say I think I was going for the attention to detail thing. Which is pretty cool, to be honest. I'm not sure I can actually think of any decent relationship examples in games, beyond the standard "but Bioware" comment. Though their solution essentially amounts to you talking to the person/object of interest until they submit.

Maybe it is time for something new.

Also, by the way... that title. "Dead Kings". It's really evocative :)

HoMM3 had some fine music. I always liked the Rampart's track, but it was always one of my least favorites to play, or fight against. Fucking dwarves and dendroid soldiers being too slow and then everything else being resistant to magic. In fact, I think I'd rather play any other civilization than play Rampart.

The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is the Floating Continent theme in FFIII/VI and various Castlevania or Mega Man tunes. Hm.

A Bronze Colossus attacked me! I sent all my legendary warriors against it.

Over the course of the fighting, it lost its right foot, its left upper arm, its right upper arm, its left foot, its right lower leg, and finally its head (the result of a speardwarf stabbing it). Then it was transformed into a statue of Irene Gloriesscaly. That's actually the name of an elf of some sort but I'd like to believe that it arbitrarily became a statue of an actual person.

The combat log goes to twenty-one pages. The first thing that happened was a swordsdwarf stabbing it in the foot hard enough to fracture it and make it tip over. The last thing was the spear militia captain knocking its head off. Twenty-one attempts at attacking my dwarves were made. None connected.

The full name of the bronze colossus was Mothdast Dentbit the Renowned Volcano.

Google docs is pretty much the best thing.

I hear that there are certain ways around it. For example, you don't embark with animals of any kind and never fish or hunt because to do either of those things would generate material for the necromancers (rumors persist of undead mussel shells). Basically, the dwarves have to be vegan in both their diet and their industry. This is probably impossible given that stupid dwarves are always dragging their stupid pets into things, but I suppose you could try to keep those under some form of lockdown. Also traps everywhere, don't expect to trade much, and you need ways of completely shutting the fortress down and praying that there's a means of adequately dispensing with everything that's at the walls once you do, which means you can't really have a military either I guess. Since individual parts can come back to life, it seems rather labor-intensive, so I've no intention of trying it.

I guess the whole thing also assumes that you aren't attacked by or are killing kobolds and goblins which, okay, good luck with that.
User
Necromancers are guaranteed death for any fortress. They are completely unstoppable, and building a fortress with access to the surface in range of a necromancer tower is the same thing as abandoning the fortress.

They're not so bad in adventure mode, though. You can usually throw enough bodies at the undead to keep them busy for long enough to assassinate the necromancers.
User
It really doesn't take much. I'm up to eight years in the current fortress, but there was a time or two when I quit the game via task manager lest it save when I was in the midst of a pretty bloody siege. If you get attacked by lashers early on, you're dead. Any badly timed siege before you have an adequate military will kill you, but lashers especially. If you get attacked by a titan that can web you, you're dead (barring some amazing archery skills). If you get attacked by something that is especially toxic, you'll be cleaning that up for a long time if you aren't already dead. Open up the caverns too early with forgotten beasts or otherwise ornery wildlife, and you're dead. Hell, if you're in an area with giant eagles or other such wildlife they'll probably kill you before you have a chance to do a goddamned thing. I haven't even seen a colossus, a necromancer, an undead sponge, a dragon, or a demon and I know I'd be really dead if I saw any one of those.

The trouble with the game is that there isn't really a point to it. Because there's only so much you can do at any given time, you inevitably create more danger for yourself either by way of traps or sending your army to explore places that are likely to fuck their shit up or leave you not so well defended.

There is no endgame, just survival for a period of time until something attacks and destroys everything.

In game or in Hammer? And what game?


In hammer they look normal but when i run the map they're invisible,talkin about cs.I did thin brushes instead :/

Also another question - how do i put sounds and shit?I tried tha ambient generic thing but shit doesn't work even if i choose the sound i want

and what does env_sound do?i see it only has 2 options


Invisible? did you change the brush into entity? try to check the FX Amount. it is 0 or 255. 0= invisible - 255= visible.

For ambient or sound, use ambient_generic and env_sound.
It didn't work if you fill the sound path wrongly.
Fill the sound with the name of the sound in the "sound" folder, example: "ambient.wav" or if the sound in the other folder in "sound" folder, fill the path. example: "radio/radio1.wav"

Hope it helps.
Correct me if I wrong Mr. Admin.

Haven't hit lava yet, and yeah, I know there's not really much need to trade at this point. The game seems broken in that way, though I hear that there used to be some kind of magic economy within the game that would give some purpose to cutting all these gems and embellishing all these things aside from trying to make dwarves happy in some way. Pretty much the only thing that I care about at this point is the possibility of the elven caravan showing up with bears or something (black bears for meat, since you can't train them?, grizzlies for war).

Were the depot in any way functional, I'd use it just to toss all the spent clothes or items I can't otherwise make any use of.

What I should do is send a scouting party down into the caverns in search of this thing...

The Forgotten Beast Pimut has come! A gigantic humanoid composed of grime and filth. It has a short tail and it undulates rhythmically. Beware its poisonous sting!


But generally, I kind of feel bored after establishing my fortress and getting it to the point where I can defend without too many losses. It feels like there's less to actually do given that all you're going to encounter are possibly more enemies and maybe a few new resources (adamantine) or means of using those resources (magma smelters). The gameplay doesn't actually change all that much, you just find new ways of getting fucked over because hey your army was all the way down there and here are some more goblins. It feels empty in the same way late games of Civ feel empty. I suppose I could design some deathtrap or crap like that, my heart's not in it.

Yeah, and that's what I was I was looking for but the problem is that I want it more or less automatic, like the website I linked supposedly scanned your account and listed your games via the steam IDs.

Why can't you just install them as you need them?

My internet is too bad for me to install a game on the day I want to play it. I have to start downloading 3-5 days before depending on the game's size.

Or do what I do. I keep my Steam folder on an external HD so I don't ever have to reinstall.

Yeah, that would've been a great idea if I owned a external drive.

isint their a steam "cloud" for all the local files?

The steam-cloud uploads and downloads save-info such as how for in a story you've gotten in games, what level your character and what gear s/he has in Borderlands etc.
Down Rodeo said:
You can also copy the relevant files to a backup then copy them from that.

No external HD and I installed my new SSD. Basicly, I have (had) 3 drives. A is a 2TB HDD, B a 600GB HDD, C a 120GB SSD. I had A(windows) and B installed and I wanted to change it to having C(windows) and A. This meant I needed to format A. I could have moved a steam-backup from A to B, replace harddrives to A C and format+ install windows, replace to B C to move the steam backup over, replace to A and C. Then B would still have files on it, which isn't that great for a drive I didn't mean to ever use again.

Long text, Ahoo!

I always have lots of extra player starts floating around, so I can keep scale in mind.

Most textures look like crap together (or separate) but you have to make do.
I make a lot of my own textures when none of the defaults will do. The easiest way to do that is to just modify the defaults. Sometimes a simple change as adding a dark gradient to an existing texture can make it work for the map.

But most importantly, I design the whole thing on paper first. I find I'm much more likely to get a working result, and actually finish something, if it is designed first.


Hmm, thanks, will do.

Hi,

I'm an average hammer mapper, I've been trying to make a DeathRun map for past few weeks, but I always find myself doing 1/10 of the job and then quitting because it looks like shit.

The thing is, they always end up too small, or too big, or too easy.
What are some standards in mapping, what height and width of the walls?
What do you build first in a DR map, the traps, both CT and T base, or something else?

Which textures look nice with others, which don't etc.

I hope you see what I'm aiming to in here, thanks.

It becomes statelier.

I designed a mist generator and did it right this time. Mist spraying all over the damned place. Needed two windmills to fully power the thing, but everything looks good for now. My problem before was the obvious one that I suspected I had: I forgot to change the orientation on the axles coming off the gear assembly
User
Months and months and months have passed and I've gotten a non-marksdwarf army component, built a hospital and used it a few times, and have a well area nearly ready to flood. I've also revved up a mister a few times only to see it flail and fall short of completing a cycle. I'm too tired to debug it and try to figure out what the fuck engineering-wise, but here's a recap of a few season's time, or further adventures in preposterous bullshit:

New artifact, made by one of my threshers (otherwise useless):

Ostarkalal Togaldastot, "Burialmelt the Stormy Sword", a granite scepter (probably because he took over a workshop that was making stone crafts):


This is a granite scepter. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is encircled with bands of rectangular granite cabochons. This object is adorned with hanging rings of kakapo bone. On the item is an image of Morul Tomblarge the dwarf in kunzite [note: that dwarf? Not in my fortress].
On the item is an image of Burialmelt the Stormy Sword the granite scepter in kiwi leather.

Ladies and gents, my first recursive artifact.

I killed a trio of goblin thieves. One was a master thief. I did not know that master thieves existed! He didn't last very long. His first move was to stab the Fisherdwarf who noticed him in the head. The fisherdwarf was a crossbowdwarf, and as the thief tried to beat his retreat, the dwarf shot the dagger out of his hand, then shot him in the stomach, spleen, and then both legs. After the second hit, he went unconscious, and woke up just in time for a swordsdwarf to bash him with the handle, then slash at his head. Didn't leave much more than a scratch, but it pissed off the thief right proper and the thief lunged, missed, and was stabbed through the skull. Short day. Later on another goblin thief appeared. The Mayor punched the thief's skull through his brain. That was how the goblin died. You do not fuck with The Mayor. The Mayor, from what I can tell, is also a plant as his profile informs me that "When possible, he prefers to consume sunshine."

In order to power my water pump, I've been trying to clear out an area to build a windmill. In order for anything to be affected by "wind", it needs to be open air, which means I carve out the level it needs to be on and, if that level is covered, I channel out the top. About five times now, a dwarf has climbed on top of the channel portion, stood on a single square, channeled out every square around him, caused a partial tunnel collapse, knocked himself unconscious, then got up again and resumed doing the exact same thing. DWARVES. One of them eventually died from this. It was probably because he was an inexperienced miner. Another time a few levels collapsed and it ended up killing a woodworker and his pet pig, both of whom were below. I guess they were inexperienced too. So far all of my casualties have been from negligence on my part. I am awesome.

Another farmer flipped out and started doing things with Stone. I only get stonecraft artifacts.

Onsheniddor Sebir Igath, "Chantedlark the Hide of Scraping", a slate scepter:

This is a slate scepter. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. On the item is an image of Edem Orbauthor the dwarve and dwarves in slate. Edem Orbauthor is surrounded by the dwarves. The artwork relates to the ascension of the dwarf Edem Orbauthor to the position of king of The Spread Syrups in 1.
On the item is an image of a tower-cap in alder.

I couldn't get an image of a tower-cap in tower-cap because I haven't gotten into the caverns yet.

Spring came and my main carpenter flipped out and created the most ornate goods bin yet seen by dwarfkind.

Abiremal Vozbel Kirar, "Romancesense the Ravager of Rights", a alder bin <#3>:

This is a alder bin <#3>. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is encrusted with oval gabbro cabochons decorated with alder and circled with bands of alder, oak, and oval cut rubicelles. This object menaces with spikes of gabbro. On the item is an image of a giant kea in steel. On the item is an image of a alder in kakapo leather.

'kay.

I don't know. I think i meant it to mean that those were the things I wanted to do next? Oh god, Dwarf Fortress is soooo confusing.

I should also probably get a mist generator up near the entrance, just to make everyone happy. And a smallish moat type thing to get the ichor off, bearing in mind that I have no idea how dangerous the first attack on my fortress will be.
User
Winter 22, Summer 23

These are conflated because a lot of things seemed to be happening at once towards the end of winter. So I was getting my shit together, no problem, when one of my dwarven children freaks the fuck out and takes over a craft workshop while ceaselessly drawing pictures of skeletons. Normal behavior, I suspect. Well, I don't have any bones and no one knows how to hunt. Panic sets in, I build my bowyer's shop and then realize, "oh wait, I have livestock. I could slaughter the livestock." And what is the result of small child becoming obsessed with bones?

Ikudlegan, "Reignedmirthful", a giant horse bone axe blade

This is a giant horse bone axe blade. All craftsdwarfship is of the highest quality. It is encircled with bands of horse bone.

No shit?

Around this time, a wave of immigrants invades and I need to start building shit again. Among notables:

1x Talented (lvl 6) woodworker
1x High Master (lvl 13) bowyer
1x High Master (lvl 13) fish cleaner (the fish are so clean you could eat off them)
1x Accomplished (lvl 10) herbalist
1x Accomplished (lvl 10) metalcrafter
1x Talented (lvl 6) fighter/dodger/armor user/ kicker

Things remain calm. I've been invaded by one kobold thief and three goblin snatchers, which I imagine I'll be seeing more of. One of the snatchers, I killed. Free clothes, bitches.

Let's take a look at the shit I now have in a more passing order.

There's my stockpile and farms. Could probably make a second farm, haven't yet. The blue thing in the south is my depot. Filled with hippies.



Workshops. Still clearing stones away I think.



Ever increasing bedrooms.



I've also got a tannery, a leather workshop, and two butcher's workshops up and running.

I bought a jaguar from the hippies. And some wine. And two bins of cloth. It's going to be a hot time in the old town tonight!

It was mostly about the jaguar. Need a mate for him, so that I can send out all of my hunters with jaguar accompaniment. Stylish and threatening.

Impending goals:
* Get the non-marksdwarf part of the army active
* Hospital below the bedrooms
* Well adjacent to the hospital.

Since there has seemed to be continuing, unspoken interest in my Dwarf Fortress exploits, I've decided to make a new truck with some level of visibility and coherence. My old fortress is still around, but I wanted to take everyone through the process from the get-go with illustrations.

1. I'm using a graphical version of the game. This helps me figure out what the fuck is going on and is equally helpful for you in this manner. The more easily you're able to understand the important aspects of what's happening, then the joy of the game's inherent dwarfiness will come out soon enough.

2. The parameters I opted for were pretty similar to what I've run previously, in large part because I have no idea what I'm doing. Most of the dwarves in my old fortress are wearing tatters. Clothing is something of a mystery to me. The deviations from the default settings are as follows: history is short (I started in the year 21 or something), natural savagery is very low, and mineral appearances are frequent. My particular start location is in a warm biome on the side of a mountain range and has access to flux, shallow metal (singular), deep metals (plural), and a river nearby which probably has some dumb name. I can't be bothered to figure everything out. This may seem like an easy setup, but note that I only have shallow metal (singular), which means I could end up with something that's no good to work with and spend a while bungling around.

There's some other interesting aspects too. I'm pretty close to the Dwarven home lands and a few other civilizations (I can't read the languages well enough to know if they're good or hostile), but I'm also four squares away from sinister and haunted portions of the map, meaning that some particularly nasty titan could spawn and wander in or I could find myself regularly dealing with the goblins that were absent in Roughnesspointed. All resulting fun will be documented, but in general it behooves me to have my shit in order early in the game or suffer mightily.

Speaking of which, my new outpost is named "Palacelands." Which is the least interesting name ever.

A quick tour:



I went with the defaults of everything, which means I ended up with all female animals, two dogs, two cats, a water buggalo, and a horse. I meant to type buffalo, but buggalo are funnier. Note that I do not yet have a yak. Woe be to all of you once I get a yak. None of my dwarves have social or combat skills, but one is a jeweler/craftsdwarf, one's a mason/mechanic, there's a wood cutter/all-purpose farmer, a butcher/clothesmaker who for some reason is also the only one to be able to clean fish, a carpenter/bowyer, a miner, and a fisherman. Oddly, my miner is the creative one in the bunch so I'll probably have him take on the mason's work. The butcher is the expedition leader. Whatever.

This is my start location. I got a lot of sand and phyllite and some gems. Sand means there's hope of some level of farming and glass making for me once I get the various workshops squared away, and the gem clusters mean I'll have things to cut. Stars are ore. From the look of it, I have zinc here. that's... all... okay that's not good if it's the only thing I have. Looks like to the west I have tetrahedrite, so I'll be making bronze stuff early on, I guess. Those "c"s in the lower center portion of the picture are chinchillas. As soon as I get a leather works, a butcher's shop, and some crossbows in order, I'm fucking their adorable little shit up.

I also have a waterfall in the lower part of my map that spans four z-levels. This is the first time I've so much as seen a waterfall in the game. Aces. I've read where you can set up floor grates at the base of a waterfall and use those to get dead fish instantly delivered with no upkeep, which means that I might be able to disable the fishing labor entirely.

I will be updating on a seasonal basis, but the first few are mostly tedious. I'll be setting up my entry hall, a trade depot, workshops, and carving out the beginnings of the fractal bedrooms while biding my time waiting for immigrant waves to show up and hoping they aren't mostly children. It doesn't really matter until the third wave anyway, at which time they stop being randomized and start relating to your relative opportunities available. I might also lay the groundwork for a well below the housing area. since I figured out how to do that.

I like building forts at the bottom of the hill a little better. Makes it feel dwarfy.

I'll start Palacelands soon-ish. I started another fort just to dick around. Got to a population of 126 before I was attacked by anything at all. The thing that attacked me was a "weremouse." "Great. This will be comical," I thought. The weremouse spawned right next to a bunch of fishermen and tore through four of them plus a dog before it was attacked by the rest of my squad. One of them was one of my better hunters, who just happened to be fishing.

You should use the Ores API. I forget exactly what it's called, but there's a nice thing out there. Also, the thing with compressing graphite technically already exists in IndustrialCraft. You can create diamonds by doing something. I think it's compressing a lot of coal.

This covers a lot of the reasons I hate C++, in case you're interested:

Why C++ Sucks

C++ sucks because it is a mis-designed pile of crap.

All you have to do is read Bjarne Stroustrop's book on the design and evolution of C++ to understand why: C++ is the iMac of computing languages.

It was designed to have those features necessary to achieve popular success--not those features necessary to be a good programming language.

In the case of something like the iMac, much of the "prettiness" does not necessarily come at the expense of functionality--but this is not always the case. Reducing the iMac's expandability makes it simpler to use--but also potentially consigns it to a gutter market a few years down the road.

The Big Mistake: C Compatibility
In Stroustrop's mind, making C++ compatible with C was instrumental, crucial to its success.

I don't disagree. Plenty of other good object oriented languages are out there, and they've never found much success. Certainly the overhead of learning a brand new language is undoubtedly a significant barrier to acceptance.

I don't think it's any coincidence that Java chose to use C syntax for its core constructs, either.

But C++ went far further than Java in compatibility. C code works nearly unchanged in a C++ compiler. The model of how a C++ program can be separately compiled (i.e. split into multiple separate files) is identical to that of C.

But this introduces hosts of other problems, some which C++ addresses, some of which it addresses with problematic design, and some of which it simply falls down on.

This is not to laud Java--I do not have a particularly high opinions of that language. It does many good things, but owing to its history it also has some odd design elements. (Foremost amongst them being reliance on interpreters during its initial introduction.)

Keep It Simple, Stupid
C++'s biggest problem is its size. People will tell you that this is no big deal; just subset C++ down to whatever part of it you're willing to use; that can be a C subset or something a little larger, or the whole thing.

This logic can be used to justify an infinitely complex language, so one should hesitate to accept it at face value.

The biggest flaw with the argument is that it forces compiler writers to implement a larger language; correctness will be harder to get right, and optimization will suffer. In the case of C++, however, this no longer matters; there are essentially no "just C" compilers anymore to compare to, so any lowered performance of C++ is no doubt also seen by C.

Another significant problem is that it requires an investment of effort to select an appropriate subset. Moreover, you will have difficulty finding books that teach this subset; and, indeed, if you acquire a C++ algorithms book, the odds that the subset chosen for that book matches that of yours is low.

In other words, subsetting is the same as fragmenting the language into lots of separate dialects; it has all the same problems as that, with the added cost of none of those dialects having unique names. What does it mean to say "I've used C++ for six years" on a resume?

Similarly, learning a subset does you no good if you work with other people's code, and they do not use the subset you are expecting; you must be able to understand their subset, and even write it.

Finally, learning a subset doesn't guarantee that you won't avoid being bit by something that's not in the subset you've chosen. For example, you might choose (wisely, IMHO) to avoid using function overloading. You can't tell the compiler this, however, and thus you might unintentionally name two functions the same thing, and cause unimaginable problems thereby. Sure, you'll eventually figure it out, it'll just be another dumb bug, but why use a language that has any number of such gotchas lurking around every corner?

Suppose you choose to just use the C subset of C++. One of the changes C++ makes to C rules is that you can no longer automatically cast from (void *) to other pointer types. The reason for this is clear; in C++, (void *) types are used sufficiently often that hidden bugs might occur. (There is a counter-argument to this even in a C++ context: C++ encourages you to typecast more often than necessary, possibly masking bugs because your typecast hides what would be a real warning.)

Is this a real problem for C? No, it's not, it just means you need to do some extra casting. The following code doesn't work:


   x = malloc(sizeof(x) * num_elements);

Instead you must code it as


    x = (mytype *) malloc(sizeof(x) * num_elements);

Of course, if you are familiar with the idiom found in the first example, you see the flaw in the second; the first version avoids a bug by not explicitly naming x's type; thus if that type changes, the code still (most likely) does the right thing. With the second code, if you change x's type, C++ will complain about the type error, so it won't introduce an error--just unnecessary typing to fix it.

If you're using C++ proper, you would just use the new operator to sidestep this... ignoring the fact that new requires the name of the type...

Too Much Typing
I guess I'm just a whiner if many of my problems boil down to C++ requiring too much typing. Typing is such a tiny fraction of programming that it's not that big a deal. Yet it grates to see such extra 'accidental' (in the sense of Fred Brooks 'No Silver Bullet', i.e. in opposition to 'essential') work required for no good reason.

Example #1
In C, I write a new function, and then add a prototype to the header file. Having to add that prototype is annoying 'accidental' effort; there is no reason this redundancy must be shoveled onto the programmer (it could easily be automatically generated, a la Java or Borland's Turbo Pascal). That something like a header file is needed for separate compilation is undeniable; but that I must maintain it by hand is largely silly.

Still, it's not that much work. Cut and paste, put an 'extern' at the front of the line and a ';' at the end of the line, and you're done:



C file:
   int myFooBar(Foo *foothing, Bar *barthing)
   {
      ...
   }

H file:
   extern int myFooBar(Foo *foothing, Bar *barthing);

Whether this worked out by chance or not, these are easy editting operations to perform without moving your hands from the keyboard; cut a single line (in 'vi', 'yy'; in a windows editor: home, shift-end, ctrl-c), switch buffers, paste, go to beginning of line and type 'extern', go to end of line and type ';'.

The effort is justified because all this information needs to be available for separate compilation.

Consider the equivalent thing for a method in C++:


CPP file:
   int Foo::myBar(Bar *barthing)
   {
      ...
   }

H file:
   class Foo
   {
      ...
      int myBar(Bar *barthing);
      ...
   };

Sure, in this example, the function declaration itself may be shorter, making C++ look better than C, but I'm comparing C++ to a similar, imaginary OO language that doesn't suck.

To make the C++ cut and paste, I don't need to add 'extern' at the front. Instead I have to reach into the middle of the declaration and delete the 'Foo::'. This is actually more work--at least for me, it takes longer, and more thinking, to do this. (You have to actually parse the declaration, which gets more complex as the return value type gets more complex.)

Example #2
Worse yet, C++ makes this necessary in circumstances that it shouldn't be.

Suppose that class Foo in the example above inherits from Baz; and Baz includes as a member in its declaration virtual int myBar(Bar *barthing);. Now, when I want to go implement Foo, I choose to override the definition of myBar found in Baz.

C++ makes me spell out in the declaration of class Foo exactly which methods I'm going to override.

Even though the whole point of virtual functions is that the dispatch occurs at run-time--no compile-time support needed.

Pointless.

Oh, and did I mention that this sort of thing leads to extra unnecessary recompilation?

Why?
I think I know why C++ does it this way. The thing is, if I subclass Foo to make, say, Biz, then if Biz doesn't define myBar for itself, it will need to store a pointer to Foo::myBar in its virtual function table. Thus, the compiler needs to know about everything that goes on under the hood with Foo to build Biz correctly. (Similarly if Biz defines it itself, but calls ::myBar.)

That means, of course, that everything 'under the hood' must be exposed in the class definition. The entire 'private' section must be exposed to subclasses (and also so that 'sizeof' works correctly).

You can try to work around the excess recompilation introduced by this by having multiple header files with differing levels of detail in them; the subclasses and the implementation of the class see the full description, whereas the rest of the world only sees the public definition, unless they need to sizeof... well, as you can imagine, I don't know anyone who actually tries to do that. (It would help if you could flag a class definition as 'incomplete' so inclusions of the wrong header file would fail to compile, instead of producing bugs.) I'm not actually sure that doing this is legal C++, anyway.

This all misses the point. Part of C++'s success is that it didn't require rewriting the linker (after all, initially it just was translated into C code). Separate compilation could be done without needing to see the innards of other classes if the virtual function tables were built up at link time. Even without rewriting the linker, the patching could be done at runtime, during startup. This does not need exposure. (The sizeof problem would still remain.)

Example #3
Yet another case is that of the C-style "static function". Suppose I decide I want to break Foo's implementation of myBar down into multiple smaller steps, using helper functions. Since the code is based around an object, I still want to make these be methods of the class so that I get a 'hidden this' and can refer to instance variables conveniently.


  /* C code: */
     static void myFooBarHelpFunction(Foo *foothing, int intermediate_value)
     {
        ...
     }

     int myFooBar(Foo *foothing, Bar *barthing)
     {
        int value = computeSomething(foo,bar);
        myFoobarHelpFunction(foo, value);
        ...
     }

  // C++ code:
     void Foo::myBarHelpFunction(int intermediate_value)
     {
        ...
     }

     int Foo::myBar(Bar *barthing)
     {
        int value = computeSomething(bar);
        myBarHelpFunction(value);
        ...
     }  

The C++ example is incomplete. As you can see, it lacks the static keyword. This is because, to implement this in C++ like this, you have to add a declaration of this function to the class definition. That's right, to do a local, hidden modularization of this function, which cannot be seen or used by anybody else, including subclasses, you have to touch the class definition, which normally (as noted above) is exposed in the header file to anyone and everyone who interacts with the class. (At least this seems to be the case. Am I missing something?)

Oh, thanks.

And don't forget to delete Foo:: when you add it to the header file.

You can work around this by privately subclassing the type, thus allowing you to create a local class MySubClass type with local, non-exposed declarations. You still end up with a declaration and a definition, as opposed to C where you only need the definition if you put the functions in the right order. And you will have to downcast pointers that are passed in. But it avoids the header dependency.

Pet Peeves
Don't get me wrong. The above three examples aren't just pet peeves. I think of them as serious design flaws. I have pet peeves about the language and the typing therein as well, but they lean more towards personal taste:


Having to prefix every method definition with Foo:: is stupid. We should be able to wrap our definitions inside something like class Foo { ... } and not have to prefix with Foo:: inside it. Of course you could do exactly this, but you can only have one definition of a class, so you can't do this and also include a header file with the class declaration in it, so you need to include the full declaration locally. (Also, providing a mechanism like this would also make cutting and pasting into the header file easier.)
constructors and deconstructors return void, even thought C++ denies it. Yes, removing the need for void from the parameter list and as a prefix on constructors/deconstructors can be seen as an opportune 'fix' to reduce typing, since C++ doesn't back-support K&R C the way ANSI/ISO C does. Sorry, I don't buy it; the amount of typing saved is irrelevent. (It's one thing to save lots of cut&paste editting motion; saving typing four characters while one is already in the middle of typing characters is saving me something like 5 seconds a week.) It introduces a pointless inconsistency.
etc. (Why waste time on pet peeves when there's more juicy bits?)
Indirection
Indirection is the source of nearly all that is good about computer programs. Pointers or handles are crucial to writing code that does more than formula processing.

A relatively crucial element of object-oriented programming is the introduction of indirect function calls. Sure, imperative programming has them as well, but most OO languages make them ubiquitous; many people consider virtual the most important keyword distinguishing C++ and C--that is, if you never use virtual, you may be using classes, but you could just as easily be writing in C.

The thing is that unlike, say, Smalltalk, not all indirection in C++ is at run-time. Stroustrop considered this an important element of C++'s success--by providing multiple mechanisms, you can select the one with the appropriate trade-off of power vs. performance overhead.

But more is not necessarily better. One can imagine a language in which a compiler makes these trade-offs automatically for you. You can imagine a language in which a single keyword changes the underlying implementation, with no syntactic or semantic variations visible.

Not so C++.

In C, a function call can only happen one way:

... foo(x,y); ...

If 'foo' is a variable that is a function pointer, this call is indirect; if not, it is direct. You generally can't tell from syntax, although many people choose to use one of two conventions to distinguish them: either a naming convention (function pointer variables include an extra word in the name), or a syntactic convention for function pointer variables (which is actually legal with function names as well, if I recall correctly):

... (*foo)(x,y); ...

(There are actually some cases where the syntax is unambigous about which, for example (foo->bar)(x) must be an indirect call--that is, any expression where the name would go.)

Assuming you use one or the other convention, then, the two modes of function call are unambiguous to distinguish. Assuming the call is direct, there is a simple mechanic for finding the callee; search back through the source, looking for a prior definition of 'foo' which is now in scope. If not found, grep the header files for exported functions. Only one function named 'foo' can be exported without introducing linker errors, so the result is unambiguous.

If a function call is indirect, the exact same search will tell you where the function variable is defined. An arbitrary effort may be necessary to be expended to determine where that call goes.

Object-oriented languages attempt to make indirection more useful by structuring it. Instead of going "just anywhere", a message send must go to one of the subclasses of a given class, and share that name.

Improving the ability of a programmer to understand indirect function calls is surely a laudable goal. Object-oriented languages are rich with designs people would be unlikely to attempt with C's unwieldy do-it-yourself function indirection methodology.

But there is much to dislike about C++'s execution.

Syntax
As noted above, there is exactly one syntax in C that leads to function calls (the variant syntax in the latter example stands for the exact same semantics); one syntax, but two semantics.

In C++ there are eight syntaces and quite a few semantics.

No joke:

regular function call (expression context): foo(a,b)
constructor call (declaration context): Foo foo
constructor call (declaration context): Foo foo(a,b)
constructor call (expression context): new Foo
constructor call (expression context): new Foo(a,b)
destructor call (block end): }
destructor call (statement context): delete foo;
overloaded operator (expression context): foo+bar
(I'll fold copy/assignment constructors in with overloaded operators.)
Even if you disagree with my splitting the constructors up that way, there'd still be six; moreover, unambiguously, there are four different contexts in which function calls occur (declaration, expression, statement, and block end).

Constructors and Destructors
Of course, if you use constructors and deconstructors in the "right" way, this isn't as bad as it sounds. Constructors and deconstructors only do "good things"; the constructors and deconstructors happen at "times" when such things are best suited to run.

But, nonetheless, this doesn't necessarily make programs easy to comprehend. An example off the top of my head: if an object in a deconstructor removes itself from a hash table, introducing a bug because the hash table shrinks itself, screwing up the currently executing hash iterator, you may spend a long time discovering what is going on.

If we accept, though, that the constructor and destructor calls are there because that leads to better, more comprehensible semantics--that any object-oriented language is going to need something like constructors and destructors--we are only left with two syntaces to discuss: plain function calls and overloaded operators.

Overloaded Operators
Many style guides strongly recommend disallowing overloaded operators. Some advocate allowing operator overloading for mathematical data structures, like bignums, complex numbers, vectors, matrices, and the like. (Care and handling of copy and assignment constructors is more complex, so I'll simply dispense with attempting to argue about them.)

The argument for avoiding overloading operators is often this simple one: it is to easy for someone reading the code to not realize that there are function calls going on. An ordinary syntax that does not normally resemble a function call is suddenly potentially a function call.

The argument for allowing it for math is simple: the expediency of the syntax overwhelms the argument against it. Nothing particularly surprising is going on under the hood, except possibly the performance overhead.

I cannot argue against this philosophy. I choose not to apply it, as the amount of actual addition or subtraction of vectors in my code is so inconsequential that the typing cost is insignificant; nor do I find the shorter, simpler syntax involving overloaded operators to cause me to introduce fewer bugs. But this is surely more a matter of taste than of logic.

Clearly, one would like operator overloading to follow the principle of least suprise. Operators which normally are side-effect free should remain side-effect free. One would hope operators which are normally commutive remain commutative, and associative associative; but this is not always the case (e.g. matrix multiplication). 

But in a short function, in which the types of the variables are obvious, one has trouble imagining operator overloading causing much trouble.

Idioms
The advantages of concise idiom are legion. I have an enormous number of C idioms I use without thought; idioms in the sense that if you are not familiar with them, the meaning of the code may not be immediately obvious. They are easy enough to figure out if you stop and think, but the power of the idiom comes from the lack of need to think; it is easier to understand a larger chunk of code all at once if the elements of it are idioms.

Here are two idioms I use frequently:

   // n loops from n-1 ... 0
   while (n--) {
      ...
   }

   // i = (i + 1) mod n
   if (++i == n) i = 0;

Notably, these idioms rely on preincrementing and postdecrementing, so the odds are high that a reader will have to stop and hesitate and think about the meaning of the code. (The idioms would not normally have the comments describing their meaning.)

Idioms make operator overloading doubly tempting. One aspect is that it allows the use of familiar idioms in new contexts:

   for(FooIter *i(foo); (bool) i; ++i) {
      ... *i ...
   }

(Something like that--I'm not very familiar with C++ operator overloading.)
A second aspect is that it allows the creation of new idioms. Expression syntax is much more powerful for idiomatic constructions than function call syntax. You may have seen this sort of construction in C, using a conventional return value to empower an idiom:


   x = listAdd(listAdd(listAdd(listAdd(newList(), a), b), c), d);

(Specifically, I've seen code like that used for adding elements to a window.)
The indirection and nesting there is ugly, and so you can see it as much clearer if you could use an idiom like:


   x = newList() + a + b + c + d;

I'm not suggesting that people would like this off the cuff; but they might find it tempting to allow operator overloading simply because it allows them to coin such idioms--not just to save typing, but because it becomes much more rapidly comprehenisble. (The nested listAdd()s above are also an idiom, but the difference in ease of comprehension is apparent.)

But this way lies madness!

Such idioms may be powerful, but they build on new, unrelated meanings of the underlying symbols.

It is (I imagine) exactly this reasoning that introduced the ubiquitous operator overloading found in the C++ stream library.

Ask a C programmer what this code does:

a << b << c << d << e;

She will tell you "nothing". None of the operators have side-effects. In C.

Do they have side-effects in C++?

It depends on what functions they call.

C++ programmers swiftly adjust to the use of <<. It seems natural and perfectly reasonable. But don't be fooled by it. Most style guides recommend against coining new forms of operator overloading. That supposed power of idiom is simply too fraught with peril.

Keep this in mind: the argument by analogy to C idioms is broken, because the C idiom is constructed of unambiguous items right there on the page. Comprehending an unfamiliar C idiom just requires parsing the code--an action the reader was already doing. There's no 'secrecy' at all--it just takes a little longer.

Semantics
As noted previously, there are two semantics for a plain C function call. Determining which semantic is in operation is as easy as searching back through the file for the name, and then grepping header files for the name.

Not so for C++. C++ has both run-time indirection and compile-time indirection. In fact, it has a number of flavors of the latter.


   foo(x,y);


a plain C-style function call
a plain C-style indirect function call
a call to a non-virtual method in this class, or any parent class
a call to a virtual method (again defined in any ancestor)
a call to a templated function
a call to a method in a templated class
one of several functions of any of the above types, all with the same name, but different numbers of parameters
one of several functions of any of the above types, all with the same name, the same number of parameters, but different formal parameter types

   foo->bar(x,y)

a plain C-style indirect function call (e.g. bar is a public function pointer)
a call to a non-virtual method in foo's class, or any parent class
a call to a virtual method (again defined in any ancestor of foo)
a call to a method in a templated class
one of several functions of any of the above types, all with the same name, but different numbers of parameters
one of several functions of any of the above types, all with the same name, the same number of parameters, but different formal parameter types
Some of the variants above may not seem like truely distinctive semantics; however, the distinction between run-time and compile-time dispatch is obvious, and the other distinctions are there to call attention to the effort required for someone to locate the implementation of the called function. Any of those cases could turn out to be true, and each is defined differently.

Templates offer the best example of my core complaint. At their heart (ignoring the committee-driven creeping featurism), templates are there to allow you to do something like define a generic hash table class, but specialize it to be implemented "directly" for some specific class, instead of having to pay indirect dispatches at runtime.

However, I've stated previously, I find this approach flawed, because it introduces an entirely new syntax and semantics. I would much prefer if you just defined the hash table as taking some abstract base class, defined your elements to be hashed as deriving from that base class, and then used a magic 'specialize' keyword to 'instantiate the template'. (Of course, personally I'd prefer a Smalltalk-like approach where you didn't need to use abstract base classes at all; the same sort of specialization is nonetheless entirely withint the realm of computability; and Java implementations may attempt to do JIT inlining to achieve the same effect, much as the academic language Self (something of a sequel to Smalltalk) did in the early 1990's.)

Moreover, those lists are far too short, as they don't call attention to the bewildering variety of problems introduced by function name overloading.

At least if all overloaded functions with the same name have different numbers of parameters, the result of the call is unambiguous. A grep for the name will turn up a number of matches, and if the line declaring the function is longer than a single line, some additional effort may need to be expended to figure out just which one. Annoying, but not impossible.

Far worse is the use of multiple names with the same number of parameters. You have to figure out the (compile-time) type of every parameter, exactly, before you can make the right call about which function is called. Go look up through the code to determine the type of any variable used; check in the header file to see what type is returned by this function; try to remember whether * means a dot product or a cross-product of two vectors.

Ok. Now you've got the types.

Go read the definition for how the "best" match for an overloaded function is resolved. I'll still be here. Go ahead.

Set intersection. I don't know about you, but I don't normally do much set intersection when I write function calls.

Ok, let's be fair. You can state it unambigously in English without reference to set intersection: the 'winning' function must have all its parameters "type match" at least as well as all the other candidates, and one of its parameters must "type match" better. (Set aside the rules for "type matching", and the inclusion of user-defined type conversions in them. This rant is already way too long.)

It's easy, in fact, to see how the specified rules underscore human intuition about best match. At least, each rule in isolation does so. I have my doubts about the combination.

Still, I find it a bit uncomfortable. I worry about the compiler's intuition not matching mine. I'd be more comfortable if the compiler only picked out a particular function for me if it was unambiguous; say, because every parameter was a better match for the "winner".

Problem is, that would preclude having, say, all the matching functions sharing, say, a common first element that is the same type. Such functions would always match equally. It's easy to see why C++ uses the rule it does.

The above considerations were based on a programmer who was trying to intentionally leverage function name overloading. What about one who isn't?

Suppose in C I define a function "foobar" in one module, and a define another one with the same name in another module, but with different argument types. In draconian fashion, C will produce a linker error, and force me to rename one or the other.

Is this so bad?

Consider the alternative found in C++: these two functions may be totally unrelated, but through a commonness of the English language (e.g. the same word having two different meanings; consider simply the word 'heap' in the sense of a semi-ordered data structure versus a pool of memory) share an identical name. In C++, name-mangling means those two functions can happily live within the same namespace, and within the same project.

Is this a problem?

What happens if I'm calling foobar() somewhere in my code, and then someone introduces a new #include in my code which now brings the other foobar() into scope? What if I was relying on some automatic type conversions in my call to foobar(), and the new foobar() now matches "better"?

And think about this: is it good that the different functions could come via different semantic mechanisms? So if I grep for "foobar", thinking it is coming from one sort of place, I may miss that a "better match" is being introduced through a different compile-time indirection?

And think about this: is it good that I can add "default arguments" to functions declarations, thus messing up my attempt to cull out possible function calls based on the argument counts not matching?

What a freaking pile.

If you're using [gs]etters to solve a real problem, then good. But if you're doing it because "I like to follow design patterns" or something then STOP.

It seems like a rare situation that the right answer is to watch for a variable change and fire off an event listener. I mean, it might be. But it sounds like tunnel vision. Who would change the var and why? Are there other things that typically go along with changing this var and what are they? Can we make a method that wraps up the process cleanly?

[GS]etters are generally devoid of context. All the [gs]etter knows is that the value was accessed or changed. No idea why, or whether it's part of some larger effort. That's fine if it's enough to solve a real problem now. But don't just sprinkle them everywhere expecting it to solve all future problems.

[GS]etters really aren't much more protection than just having public member vars, anyway. You can make everything [gs]ettable, but you can't enforce what order everything can be [gs]et in, which could lead to a very complicated implementation. It's usually easier and more efficient to [gs]et a lot of things at once, with some kind of a real API-like thing.

Sorry, I'm taking the opportunity to rant about something that's been bugging me for a long time. :)

Okay, so some years ago I was at a friend and we were playing games. One of the games was some sort of RPG, I think it was either on the original xbox or playstation 1/2.

You played as 2 different characters, one which was a human boy. You leave the first city you're in for adventure. This character is possibly a prince or something, I don't know. When you leave the first city you have with you another character (who I believe is female). When you've been in the jungle outside the first city a long time enough you fight a ranged boy who calls himself the jungle king or similiar. He wears a wooden mask, then he joins you.

The other character is a half demon/animal-thing half human, who is bullied in the demon/animal-thing's place because of this. This character lives with a witch that dislikes him and treates him more like a slave. Later, this witch tries to sell you to some people, and tries to bait you out by being injured. Since you hate her, you don't step directly into the trap. Also you get a female (I think) friend there.

The combat was turn based, with the basic RPG battle system.

The game is called something like twin souls or something similiar, I think, but I found nothing from googling it.

Showed it to my friend, he said the only thing he didn't like about it was that at the end it got repeditive.

I'm not really into dubstep (which I assume this is(lol, temostep)) what I'd prefere would be if the WUBWUBZ followed the beat of the song.

Also, I would like that the high pitch sound would lower after the drop.

the thing is i had a back up email and the problem was that my reset email was eathlink back then , and that email is no good...

Just changed from a shitty 60mb/s, not working to a 30mb/s connection.

The thing is when I had 60mb/s I only had about 3-5mb/s.
Later I found out it was the tv-cable outside of my house that was the problem.

Oh well, let's compare each others connections!

INC LONG ASS TEXT!

so i did a turnable thing with 4 DJ's for my page and i got ALOT of great music, although most of it is dubstep.

but i havent found a song that is bad.

So, I've been waiting a long time for Guild Wars 2 to come out, and now there's finally a date

The thing is though, that date is June 26... and it just so happens that I ship out for basic training on, you guessed it, June 26

But imma make this the official thread for it anyway. I'm sure once I'm done with tech school I'll prolly start playing it.

Most of us are in the west coast.
and if you just want a simple program that will repeat the same thing every ten minutes, like a macro, use http://www.autoitscript.com/site/autoit/
User
Ok, last time I was on here (the awesome SuperJer forums), everyone seemed to be a god of programming. Now, my roommate is trying to find a program to use on his desktop that is basically a clock that will go off every 10 minutes to remind him to use a thing in minecraft. Does anyone know of a program online that you can set a time interval and then push a button and it goes off every whatever long amount of time? Or if someone can make a program of any kind that can do it, it would be greatly appreciated. Also, are most of you from US or Europe? And if US, East or West?

So you've resparked my interest (at 3 am, you bas), and I'm not sure I'll ever get the answer. Because: can't change i--; one change is a solution and anything else is not an operator. Can't change the assignment, that's a two-character change. Can't change the assignment of i to anything useful (largest is 9). Can't change the type of loop (obviously). Can't change the loop boundaries (not that I think it would help). Can't change the thing it's printing to anything useful.

Ah...

Legit, you made me break out the pens. I want to say that changing the < to & will work, but it might actually print out 19 or 21 minus signs, I think. It's late! We want the pattern
code
0 0 0 1 0 1 0 0 &
1 1 1 0 1 0 1 1

That means i = -21, so there should be 21 minus signs printed. I am probably wrong somewhere so please let me know!
i made a megaman thing.

VB seems like a horrid language.

I can confirm that it is.



I just looked into what the difference between a for next and a for each would be... my findings were rather disappointing, though. Structurally, they both do the exact same thing. The only difference between them is the obvious that a for next loop is cycles through for a predetermined amount of times based on the numbers you give it, where the for each loop will start at the beginning of an array and go through every item until there are no more items.


Here's the structure for a for each:
Quote:
For Each element [ As datatype ] In group
[ statements ]
[ Continue For ]
[ statements ]
[ Exit For ]
[ statements ]
Next [ element ]



And here's for a for next:
For counter [ As datatype ] = start To end [ Step step ]
[ statements ]
[ Continue For ]
[ statements ]
[ Exit For ]
[ statements ]
Next [ counter ]

Yeah it was pseudocode. I have never used VB.NET so really I can't help you with actual syntax, only ideas. If you ever felt like using Python (which you really ought to someday, my supervisor has converted me) you can do stuff like that. So in short yes, perhaps your code does the right thing, but I am not sure.
User
You do not to add any thing just create an entity then rename the entity as the desired function.
E.g
You want to strip a player of all his weapon on map start
create a multi_manger. Then in properties REname where it says multi_manager to player_weaponstrip. Then to trigger it just create another multi manger and set the name to game_playerspawn. Then disable smart edit click add then add the name given to player_weaponstrip entity. and the value is the delay after which it will trigger player_weaponstrip entity.

Same for game_player_equip.
but disable smart edit and click add to add the desired weapon you want.
e.g weapon_knife gives every spawning player a knife

check your autobuy.txt in cstrike to get all the weapons names.

I will not be here so no question will be answered.

I think the fact that you never see a single woman in the empire doesn't mean much, as there our military never putting women on the front lines has nothing to do with sexism. It's just that men get really stupid when they think women are in danger, and women aren't useful enough to make up for that.

The aliens are a different story, though. We clearly see that there are TONS of aliens all over the place, and yet it is made very clear that the empire's military is made up entirely of humans. Just because you can't see what storm troopers look like doesn't mean it isn't meant to be assumed they are human. Given that using aliens in a sci-fi movie as the bad guys does a lot to make them seem more menacing, the fact that no aliens are ever shown with an empire uniform says quite a bit.

The funny thing is that the vast majority of rebel soldiers are also human, but that is probably due to budget constraints. There's never any dialogue indicating that humans are vastly more common than any sort of alien... although if the empire was killing a lot of aliens that would explain why.

Also the original movies don't display any sort of slavery theme about droids as far as I can see. It's pretty clear that people don't think droids are people, and that they really aren't people. If a slavery theme was supposed to be present somebody at SOME point would say something about the oppression of droids. It just doesn't happen. Droids aren't people and they don't care that they are being used for labor because that's how they were built. Whenever a droid does something unusual, like R2-D2 wandering off into the desert, it's because he was programmed to do it.

Even as a kid I never saw the different colored lasers as anything other than a method the movie makers were using to identify who is shooting. The only reason blaster rifles aren't green is because rebels use them too.
Episode 4 made it feel like Vader was the #2 man to Tarkin. Like he was Tarkin’s mysterious enforcer, but that dynamic changed with the introduction of the Emperor in Episode 5.


The EU stuff states that the Empire is xenophobic and sexist, but that’s doesn’t seam to be the case in the movies. It’s true that men appear to be overrepresented in the Imperial military, but then again, so are they in modern militaries on Earth. Its entity possible that there are female (or even alien) personnel, that we never get a chance to see. The camera never lingers on the crew of the Star Destroyers, and Storm Troopers, Gunners, and Pilots wear bulky armor and concealing helmets. It’s also possible that the Imperial military is split between the sexes, not unlike the Zentraedi in Macross, or the Imperium of Man in Warhammer40k. This might seam a little odd, but there have historically been all female unites, such as the Dahomey Amazons or the Women's Auxiliary Air Force. Given the Empire’s assumed authoritative nature, this isn’t to much of a stretch.

Similarly, though the Empire appears to be human-centric if its military is any indicator,
there doesn’t seam to be any direct evidence of the Empire being overtly specist or xenophobic. Sure the Detention Block commander made a snide remark about Chewbacca, but then again, Chewie is from a species of space sasquatches that rip people’s arms out when they throw a hissy-fits also possible that the guard had never seen a wookie before (implying that they are relatively rare. You don’t see any others on film.), or that the commander was just a dick. Similarly, Admiral Piett’s line "Bounty hunters! We don't need their scum." probably isn’t directed at the aliens, humans ,and droids assembled on the bridge, but rather an angry retort to Vader dick-slapping Imperial intelligence and the Imperial Navy. Imagine how you would feel if you were (or are) in the military, a when suddenly the president comes by and says “You suck at your job. I’m going to let Dog the Bounty Hunter do it.” Yeah, you’d probably be a little hurt and confused as well

The only overt racism seen on screen is that bartender in Episode 4 who (along with some of the locals) appear to have something against droids. Granted this is on a backwater planet, probably akin to the Deep South in the US. Actually, come to think of it, there appear to be some sort of droids = slaves mentality, at least on the outer rim.
What with the Jawas apparently capturing runaway or stray droids and then selling them to local communities, the analogies to the African slave trade seam apparent. Perhaps droids are only counted as 3/5ths a person or something like that.


A funny thing with colored lasers, I always thought that the green lasers represented a more powerful/expensive weapon. Personal firearms and weapons mounted on vehicles always appear to fire a ruby red colored beam. Even the rebel ship sand fighters shoot red lasers. The green beams are only seen when fired from a TIE fighter or a Star Destroyer.
The “more powerful” theory is somewhat supported by the fact that TIE fighters rip through rebel fighters, even when they have shields.

Does the mod work fine if you use a different map, and not the one you made?

That's the first thing to determine; is it your map or amx_super.
Well, the way it is now is, I open the main window and then click on one of the four buttons on it. That opens another window with a certain tool (e.g. calculator), depending on which of the four buttons was pressed. Now if I press that same button again, it'll open another window with that same tool. I don't want that.

What I want is that if I press that button again, it restores the window that was opened by that button (if it was minimized) and puts it on top as the currently active window.

In other words I want the same thing to happen when I press that button, as if I clicked with my mouse on that opened window.

That would be something like fixed point, though a better way to do it is to store for example 2 bytes of integer part and 2 bytes of fractional part. Or four of each, go crazy. You can actually implement this yourself if you feel up to it! Yeah, VB is stupid. I admit that initially using the thing that had meant exponentiation to be something different wasn't the best plan, but we're stuck with it now.

So floating point! Get to it!

Lame because I made an epic game engine that does the same thing (search the foras for it)

Yep, I pulled it in, still finds leak. The thing is, the map works without lagging, but only if my pistol is pointed to the left side, as soon as I turn my pistol right it starts lagging. Also, is there any other way of finding leaks that isn't following that red line because it's really confusing? Also, when I try to compile my map with skybox around it, VHE just freezes and then I have to shut it down via Task Manager. I have 768 MB of RAM.

Wha?

JPEG is a shit format, and the text in your image is too small/too compressed to read.

It's not a shit format, however it is completely unfit for purpose in this case. For text, PNG is all you need. Or, y'know, a link to the source. Because HTML is HyperTEXT, blah blah.

This is a consideration. It's important to remember that Chrome has recently overtaken Firefox in terms of users; they have basically the same codecs supported. Also you have a picture of text. I'm not saying you made it but I can't read any of the small print. This is a bad thing.

Actually, now that I think about it, there was this whole period where people would "like" five pages a day, and they'd be crap, and that doesn't happen any more...

I used pgm because it is braindead-simple. They look like this:
code
PX //X is a number 1-6, depending on type: monotone, greyscale, colour and ASCII/binary
xsize ysize if it's binary
maximum intensity (say, 255)
from now, data. One line per line of image, if it's ASCII, otherwise it's a big lump of binary.

Oh yeah, each thing is a char. Including each channel for colour images. Whatever, it's really simple. The stuff I've not posted here yet is slightly different again so you might want to update.

It's probably about time I let someone see my code. So here it is: GET SOME

At the moment, it is nothing more than a simple command-line program to produce Perlin noise and FBM of various octaves. It's all pretty simple but is completely uncommented. You run it like
code
./noise size cellsize octaves output_file


The images are all square, so that's what size is, the cellsize defines what scale the noise is on, larger cellsizes make large noise features, smaller makes it more intricate. The octaves thing... broadly speaking, adding more octaves (you can leave it at zero for instance) will add higher-frequency noise but at a smaller amplitude. At the moment that's not hugely modifiable.

I've just realised what I've said is lies. I've added some domain warping and at the moment, it can't be turned off. The plan for the next bit is to add support for a file that all the data is read from, because there are only so many pieces of data you can put on the command line. If you want to remove the domain warping it will require a little source editing. If anyone is really interested I'll tell you what to do. Expect pictures in the next few days, perhaps!

So... I got this little bluetooth adapter for my pc, so I could hook up a bluetooth headset. When I plugged it in, it said it installed the driver correctly, but now there's no icon in my tray for it. So I was all "ICON, Y U NO IN TRAY?!?!", and I decided to type 'bluetooth' into the search bar on my start menu, and that's when I noticed that all the regular bluetooth stuff that's in windows 7 is gone. The adapter works just fine on my laptop, cuz it has all the bluetooth stuff... but the thing is, I'm running the same version of windows 7 on my desktop and the blutooth stuff is gone.


So, any ideas as to why it's gone? And more importantly, is there any way to get it back (though, I have a feeling it was never there to begin with, so it wouldn't really be 'getting it back', but you know what I'm sayin')?

ALRIGHT just finished all of my list and to anybody concern i will say what i thought about it.

Lain- I Just got done with it and it was hard to follow at the beginning but i got interested in it around the 4th episode then everything kinda sorta made sense. it was a great point of view and i enjoyed it. the end left me kinda derp.


durarara- i liked the action, everybodys personality, and the story. that's it.

Black Lagoon- i hate the main character of the story. but i loved the action and the back story on the other people. duno if there is gonna be another season but i would watch it.

ergo proxy- dunno how to explain this, but it was interesting. the concept of the entire thing was amazing. hard as hell to follow half the time.

MLP FIM-

outlaw star- if i was to advertise this program i would say it is like gurren lagann but with none of the fun.

Each column is just a really tall image of random letters, and I animated them to slide up or down at whim.

I replaced with the "correct" colored letter/number/symbol in each image after animating each scroll movement. That way it all lined up with very little effort.

Rockbomb, I think you covered most things. When I said "they're there for a reason" I meant "presumably" but the alcohol demons STOLE MY WORDS. I feel it's a tad disingenuous to say that Obama's plan failed while Bush's plan would have executed flawlessly, but even then McCain might have chosen some other course of action.


Oh, I didn't mean to imply that Bush's plan would have worked flawlessly. His plan was bullshit from the beginning, and it should have never been executed to begin with. He used the attacks that took place on 9/11 as an excuse to start this "war against terror", which might sound good on the surface, but really it was just used as a reason for us to be attacking all these other countries. And look where we are now... the two main targets we were going after, Saddam Hussein and Obama Bin Laden, are both dead, yet we continue attacking...

I'm interested to know what ridiculous restrictions on businesses you're talking about. I'm sure you'll have many but I am an ignorant foreigner! I guess you could be advising that America adopt similar working legislation as China and India, such that the US can become as competitive as they are in the global market, but that would be weird.


Well, to start... we have a minimum wage that keeps getting raised higher and higher. In fact, I believe they just raised it again last week. Businesses can't afford to pay all of their employees at the minimum wage, so they send the work to other countries who will work for much, much less. To add to that, it seems that most people in the US always come up with the same excuse of "Well, Americans wouldn't work for that little of money anyway.", but... I guarantee if you ask anyone that's been searching for a job, they'd be HAPPY to work for even 20% of what the current minimum wage is. So I think that lifting the minimum wage would be a great place to start.

On top of that, there are all kinds of fees that (most) businesses have to pay here, that they don't have to pay if they send the work to other countries. I don't know any numbers off the top of my head, but I'll do some Googling and see if I can come up with some for you.

Also, to start up a new business in the US can take several years to get everything done. Then, once you finally get it started up, you've got to meet all sorts of different inspection standards and whatnot, or you'll get shut down and have to start the process over.

What's wrong with being old, white, and rich?
White we can cross off the list completely, unless you're racist, in which case... go fuck yourself
Old... I don't see anything wrong with being old. In fact, I see that as a good thing. He's been around for quite a while, and has had more time to learn.
Being rich... well, I don't really see how that's a bad OR a good thing. Also, he wasn't born into a rich family or anything... any money that he has now, he earned on his own. Before he got into politics, he was an obstetrician gynecologist... he worked his way through med school (actually, iirc his wife payed for him to get through school... I'll have to double check on that one), and when he got out he worked for a living.

Last point here. I think it is one hell of a supposition to look at our universe and assume that there's something "more" out there. Truthfully, I still don't know what you mean by that. For the whole of history the approach of experiment-theory-better experiment-better theory has been a success. Why should it change now, at our point in history? Why should that change at all? I mean, think of people just before the renaissance, and try telling them that one day people just like them will walk on the moon. They'd not believe you. Actually that's not even slightly relevant. Try telling them that eventually man will alter crops to have the features he desires; to change them to resist disease, to produce more food, to be able to grow in more climates... they'd say that was the realm of god or something similar. They'd say it was beyond our current knowledge, and quite possibly beyond us forever.


Yeah, you're absolutely right... it IS one hell of an assumption. But, wouldn't you say the same thing about religion, as well as theories like the big bang? Well, I guess stuff like the big bang isn't as far of a stretch, as we do have a lot of discoveries that support it. But, even in that case, the big bang theory only covers how we came to be in our current state of being, not how the existence of everything came into being. So, even if we we're to find solid proof that would make the big bang factual, we'd still be left of the question of "How did that matter get there in the first place?". Which is why I think there's something more.

You do leave a good point, however... hell, it wasn't that long ago that we thought we could sail off the edge of the earth. So, maybe the answer is within reach, but I think at the very least it'll be a long reach, and it's going to be quite some time before we're able to grasp it.

If there's one attribute that I'd say makes Ron Paul the best candidate, it's how consistent he has been on all of his views over the years. The stuff he's saying now is the same stuff he was saying 30 years ago.

What's kinda scary, is that through time he has pretty accurately predicated the exact outcome of things.

Well, unfortunately, I don't really know how to put into words exactly how I feel. I believe there is something, and when I say "something" I don't necessarily mean a physical "thing", that is beyond our current knowledge. I guess the reason I can't find any words to describe it, is because there aren't any. Perhaps it would be some sort of alternate world, maybe it's a deity, maybe it's some sort of force in nature that we aren't familiar with... but, I think that the answer to our existence isn't one that can be found with our current knowledge and discoveries, and is probably something that we are incapable of understanding at all.

As far as politics goes, I'd probably vote Obama. As I said, I hold intelligence and willingness to learn in high esteem and am extremely sceptical of those with neither.

Taking all US troops out of everywhere in the world... doesn't that seem a little consequence-y? I mean, they're there for a reason. And once you get them back, what are they going to do? I can only see that leading to job losses.

Also, you claim that Obama wants to bring all the troops back, is that right?


Well, I guess I'd like to first start my response to all that by saying... doesn't invading random countries and killing hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians seem a little consequence-y?

You say our troops are there for a reason... what reason?

I think it's definitely very risky to pull all the troops back, but I think it's even MORE risky to continue on as we currently are.

To answer your last question there... short answer: yes
Long answer: If you pull up videos of the 2008 debates, Obama repeatedly said that he wanted to bring the troops back as soon as he could. He said that he was going to bring the troops back quicker than G W Bush's plan had set for... and under GW's plan, the troops would have been back 2 years ago, yet they're still not. Also just recently, within the last month or so, Obama said that we no longer needed our troops to be in Afghanistan and that he was bringing them all back... and, he did bring a portion of them back, but most of them are still there... so we'll see if he follows through with that. But even if he does, that's only the troops that are in Afghanistan... we've got troops in tons of different countries, and there's no real reason for them to be there other than the fact that we want to police the world.

You do bring up a great point... with a pretty large percentage of US citizens not being able to get a job, what are all the military personnel supposed to do when they get back? Well, I'd assume most of them won't be able to re-enlist once their contract is up, so they'll have to get civilian jobs. But we have run out of civilian jobs, because all of the huge companies are sending them overseas. So... I would hope that this would push us over the edge and FORCE the government to get rid of all of the ridiculous expenses and restrictions that they put on businesses, and encourage the big companies to set up shop here at home. Granted, this obviously isn't going to happen overnight, so... for quite a while, they WON'T have jobs.




Idk if I replied to everything in your post, and I'm too lazy to read what I've just written, so if there's something I missed that you'd like a response to let me know :D

Your thoughts above in the thread about there being some kind of being, and about our current theories being wrong... I suggest you research them some more. Clearly lots of work needs to be done but a key point to remember is that our current theories make predictions, predictions which have been experimentally verified. Any theory that superseded the ones we have currently would have to make the same predictions to explain that which we currently observe.

I am also intrigued by your other comment, about some sort of higher being. What would this thing be? Why do you feel there should be something like that out there? Why, in fact, assume at the moment? Do you believe it's a creator of some sort? Anyway, answer as much or as little as you feel like, I am interested.

As far as politics goes, I'd probably vote Obama. As I said, I hold intelligence and willingness to learn in high esteem and am extremely sceptical of those with neither.

Newt Gingrich is a terrible human being and I'd not so much as give him the time of day, never mind a vote.

EDITS; because I started writing this about an hour ago and forgot things. The cut of Ron Paul's interview I have heard is a shocking lapse of good judgement. Every time I see or hear about something like this journalists everywhere are hurt and it is total bullshit.

Taking all US troops out of everywhere in the world... doesn't that seem a little consequence-y? I mean, they're there for a reason. And once you get them back, what are they going to do? I can only see that leading to job losses.

Predictions: OK, sounds like he know's what he's on about. I'm sure he's a smart guy. Also, you claim that Obama wants to bring all the troops back, is that right? I'd never heard of it but to be honest, I only care because America is so influential. Every time your country elects someone that would *get nowhere* in British politics I cringe a little, but I am more concerned with what's happening in my own country. I'm probably not the best to talk to about this. Of course, it is impossible to deny that I've hacked out 400 words on it in this post alone.

Oh yeah, one last thing: it is impossible to "prove" some kind of theory about the universe correct. All a theory can do is repeatedly stand up to experiment. Rather appropriately, Einstein once said "No amount of experimentation can prove me right; it takes only one to prove me wrong", quite apt in the light of the recent ATLAS experiments at CERN. IMHO they're probably wrong with that one, but if they're not... shit gets SO INTERESTING.

SRAW: I'm not voting for Ron Paul because I'm a few thousand miles out of citizenship. Even if I were, I would not vote for him, or any Republican, because of their stupid bronze age beliefs. Yes, he should be commended for his honesty and for voting for what he believes in, but I don't think that since those beliefs include some really dumb shit that's entirely a good thing.

Edit: Also... why is creationism stupid?
Nobody has any proof of ANY theory of how we came into being. Sure, the scientific-based theories definitely sound a lot more believable than most religious-based theories. But in the end, nobody knows, and nobody probably ever will know... so, until someone finds some proof either proving or disproving a theory on our existence, I think they're all equal in how valid they are.


Right, consider this. There are many world religions. Hundreds. Each of them has some kind of creation myth which we know about from the supposed holy texts of that religion. The muslim, christian and judaic religions all claim to be by and large the same, fair enough, but consider that many of the rest are incompatible with each other. They make contrasting claims, but all we have to choose between them is basically personal choice. There is nothing in the world that says one religion is better than the other.

On the other hand, current scientific theories about the evolution of the universe are the result of centuries of observation, theory and measurement. They are entirely derivable from the world around us and require no ancient texts or superstition. Religion is stupid. Think about it! The Bible is largely ~1800-~1900 years old. How, in any way, can you apply this to modern life?! Go back a mere 500 years and you cannot apply their theories to the modern world. This is not a surprise.

To finish this bit, I was raised a christian. I can ask why I was raised a christian, and it wasn't because of divine will, it was because my parents are of that denomination. Were I born elsewhere - say, India - I would likely be hindi, perhaps muslim. What is the difference between these scenarios? Nothing.

To add a final bit to the Ron Paul thing, creationism denies evolution. This is stupid and I should not have to tell you why. The problem is in education, people attempt to push their bullshit into the classroom where it does not belong.

I read quite a lot of athiest shit on the internet, you know, and I guess it's not great to spend so much time circlejerking.

People have suggested previously that the Mona Lisa was in fact Da Vinci himself but dressed up. Since I had invoked the Mona Lisa because of the smile I decided to make a funny based on that small random piece of trivia. As far as I can tell, that idea is largely believed to be untrue, but it's still kind of interesting. I guess it's not a well-known thing.

And yes, it is a compliment. I'm saying there's quite a lot of depth to your image.

Well, I think the problem you're probably having is that not too long ago the US passed a thing where every TV station was required to go digital. So, if it's an analog television, you have to buy a digital converter in order to be able to pick up the local stations.


But... you said you're using Comcast, so... I would assume that there should be some sort of box that you'd need to connect to your tv. I've never used Comcast (or any cable company at all, for that matter), I've always gone with a satellite company, and they always have had a box that we had to hook up.


Also, with cable, you won't be using the actual channels on the tv (those are for local stations), but rather you'd go to AV or component or something, and you'd control the channels via a separate remote that controls the cable box.

Depending on how well you did in the game previously, and whether or not you prepared for it, it might not even be possible to beat the game if you pick all good choices.

Also, is the greedy statue thing like you're getting punished by the gods for being a douche? Or is it more like your own stupidity getting you killed all on its own?

Here's one of the ideas I had for a possible gameplay style. This wouldn't be like the 'main' mode that players would use, but rather a kind of 'fun mode' that players could choose to play.



So the name of the game is roulette, because... well because I based the game off of a roulette table. So the players of each team would spawn in every other lane... or they could each spawn on one side, but that wouldn't be as fun :P

So basically what would happen is you'd have to attack the control pillars for a certain amount of damage, and once you've 'killed' it, your team would then own that lane. Every 30 seconds or so a thing would go around the arena and land on a random lane... whichever team happens to won that lane would get some sort of boost (whether it's temporary buffs, extra money, etc).

But the main goal of the game would be to take control of the middle. It would be kind of like 'king of the hill' where standing in the area would add points to your team, and then whichever team reaches a set amount of points first wins.

You'd only be able to earn points while ONLY your team is in the middle (meaning if there's player from both teams in the center, nobody would be getting points).

So you'd definitely be wanting to take control of the middle, but at the same time you need to make sure that you're also taking control of the lanes so you can get the boosts, which will help you in taking control of the mid.

Bleach is pretty all right for a shounen, but it has a lot of the usual shounen pitfalls like "good guys never die", "hero is so fucking determined he's going to tell you about how fucking determined he is all the time", and "nakama are ultimately useless". Also the anime-only arcs have been pretty uninspired for the most part, but hey, at least none of them have yet been as bad as the Bount arc because holy crap that was awful (and hey, the mod soul pals from that thing are still around and continued to never interact with anyone in a meaningful way, which is getting it at least mostly right).

On the plus side, fucking characters and shit. And interesting powers that work in such a way that few universal advantages can be maintained.

Blood+

For merely mentioning Blood+ and not Blood: The Last Vampire, you're going to get hell from aaronjer. I saw them in reverse order and I was okay with Blood+, mostly, but it got to the point where I realized that none of the scene-setting shit mattered and that the peripheral characters were all but disposable. That's not something that makes me happy.

Among the shows I would give some praise of but not fully endorse (it seems like you're well-versed in the Adult Swim stuff):

Ghost Hound - Takes place in a small Japanese town with primary characters of a brewer's son who was kidnapped as a child along with his sister (who died), a somewhat smarmy scientist's son from Tokyo who has a crippling fear of heights, the guitar-playing, ne'er-do-well grandson of a local cult leader (whose family was rumored to be involved with the kidnapping of kid #1), and the daughter of a local priest who is sometimes possessed/has visions. It's a decent premise rooted somewhat in the spirit world and self-exploration with questions of technology and the human soul, but the last few episodes shit the bed and they forget about the driving forces of the plot in favour of some other stupid bullshit.

Black Butler - Basic premise: Victorian era nobleman's son witnesses parents killed off by some cultish thing and then contracts with the devil to be his butler in exchange for his soul later. There are also the goofy side characters of the pyromaniac chef, the absurdly strong but clumsy gardener, the near-sighted maid, and the usually chibi old butler, none of whom are exactly what they seem. It's mostly humourous, but dark humour, mixed with the occassional feat of badassery from the butler. If you get into it, I wouldn't watch the second series, it's not nearly as good.

D. Gray Man - It's a shounen, so you have to deal with certain shounen tropes, but it has a driving force behind it that is a lot weirder and scarier than most shows will go to. In the world, there are akuma, or demons. These demons come out in a very particular way. First, someone dies. Then someone close to them, lamenting that death, contracts with the series' villain (a particularly goofy looking gentleman) to bring them back. The soul of the deceased is then transfered to large black skeleton where it is trapped, and the soul, no longer capable of controlling its own actions but remaining aware of them, kills the person that brought them back and wears their skin. Those are the akuma. There are various evolutions of each akuma which only corrupt the soul more and more, but that's the gist of it. Exorcists fight them. One of them has a big punchy hand and then there's a samurai and a girl who kicks stuff. They aren't quite so interesting as the akuma and the people controlling the akuma, but at the very least, they manage to give the main characters development. The shit thing about the show is that it follows a manga and the mangaka is frequently sick/injured/loony and production has become erratic, which means that the show went to an anime-only conclusion where the manga is still rolling (and has just recently revealed all of the players on the evil side). But when it's funny/silly, it's super silly, and when it's uncomfortable, it's super bleak.

Samurai 7 - Based off the Kurosawa flick, if you make the world not feudal Japan but some grey wasteland with pockets of dense industrial cities, if you make the raiders evil aliens with space ships, and if you give the titular samurai anime type martial arts superpowers. It's fucking pretty but I've never seen it in its entirety.

Last Exile - Steampunky, lots of air fights, weird world (kingdoms fighting each other, separated by giant storm fields), but ultimarely falls apart at the end like Ghost Hound does and fails to be as interesting as it seemed like it wanted to be. BUT THEY'RE MAKING A NEW SERIES.

Pani Poni Dash - Uhhh.... seen Azumanga Daioh? It's like that. But faster. And usually weirder. God is a cat that lives in vending machines and warms things up to his body heat.

Excel Saga - Also fucking weird. Just watch it. Nabeshin!

I thought of some stuff! You've probably already watched the Ghost in the Shell series, but if you haven't go do it. They're mind-bendy in an intelligent way. Also, Paranoia Agent has the same "smart but mind-bending" aspect to it (though pushed in a much more insane direction)... but you already listed it in editting Trigun is apparently one of the rare series where the show was better than the manga.

aaronjer keeps pushing the Slayers thing and one of these days I might watch it. One of these days I might do a lot of things, but one of these days I might be dead.

I've been enjoying the hell out of Durarara!! lately, which seems to do this ensemble cast thing that's mostly set in our world (or a neighborhood in Tokyo) with some weird mythical shit added for spice (Dullahans, spirit possession, etc). It's been a damned long time since I've been as entertained by a show as I have been by that one, but I've been told it starts to fall apart at the end, maybe because they outpaced the author.



What else.... FLCL is worth watching and quick to get through. It might break your brain. People seem to either love or hate it, but it has far more depth than it seems like it has any right to... Darker than Black takes the "weird event in Japan causes some people to have superpowers" trope and does right by it in a lot of respects, providing solid characters, continuity, and a damned fine soundtrack... The second Full Metal Alchemist series (Brotherhood) was far superior to the first, though it glosses over too much of the plot leading up and Ed is not that likeable initially... Samurai Champloo = Shinichiro Watanabe (the guy who brought us Cowboy Bebop) + Samurai + Hiphop and is good, if you're okay with things mostly being one-offs.

I could probably think of more but not ones that I might recommend as strongly.

ROCKY, the other day you asked us about what we thought of you becoming an air traffic controller. I've since had a chance to ask my coworker about it, he did 20 years in the Navy as an ATC. The first thing out of his mouth, before I had even closed mine, was that it was the best job any of the forces can offer you. You get great schooling, great pay, and when you get out you can get even better pay as a civilian. He also told me to mention that in 1981 there was a strike in the civilian air traffic control industry, so there was a lot of turnover, and all of 81's new hires will be coming up for retirement soon, so the sweetness will get even sweeter.

He mentioned that you make sure to get trained on both radar AND tower, don't get locked in to one or the other. Everything is by the book, there are a million rules and guidelines and it's your job to learn and properly apply them. They are done well enough that nothing should be stressful or by the seat of your pants. The only image of ATCs I have is from Pushing Tin, so this was surprising to me. He then told me you can find tons of stuff online, accounts of historic/interesting air traffic control, sometimes even in-tower video, both civilian and military, with a bit of google-fu.

Another thing he mentioned about ATC is that, to the best of his knowledge, it is one of the few jobs where they treat your service as equivalent or better than civilian service and/or college education; ie it is one of the few jobs where moving from the forces to a civilian job does not entail what basically amounts to demotion.

Lastly he was very adamant about, if it is not too late, getting your shit in writing - never let anybody else choose your school, your path. Recruiters will try to worm you out of your choices in some cases, make sure to get it all in explicit writing.

Hope that helps!

tl;dr become an ATC if you like money and you don't mind memorization

Did you try reintegrating the coefficients using the Mainzer-Carter algorithm applied to a system of nested matrices?

Can't tell if serious or I just have no idea what that is.

Yes, it would imply that something is going horribly wrong, the current setup is a thing called derivative() which provides the gradient of the system as a whole, if you like. Strong chance that the mistake could be there tbh. The function that does the integrating makes repeated calls to this because that's how the RK4 algorithm works. I've thought of a way to test that bit, actually, by making sure that for a simple system the derivative calculation is correct. It's definitely going very weird somewhere.

And yeah I meant to say, for the very simple system it flies off in a direction that it has no velocity component in, if you see what I mean.

Also, how far are we talking here? You said your laptop has wireless, yeah? Is it not a wireless router?

I have 2 computers, hence the "fixing my second computer". One is a stationary without wireless and my crappy one is a laptop with wireless.
I usually use wireless with the laptop but as it's internet broke down I tried with the wire to the switch, which didn't work.

A switch is where you plug in one internet wire as input and you get several outputs. I think that the difference between a switch and a router was that a switch doesn't have it's own IP.
I think that's what it is.

Also, my brother's internet was really slow when it worked, now it doesn't anymore. He's now plugged directly into the router that goes into the wall and it works fine.

Hehe... I posted this on another forum, and someone else mentioned the RAM thing too... I never knew about this

So basically what I decided to do, is to just get two 4GB sticks for the moment (that's 8GB total if you don't feel like doing simple math or are an idiot), and will buy another 8GB later on (to total 16GB).

If you don't mind, could you clear up one thing for me...
The way the other guy explained it, it'll be bad if I have 3 sticks, but it'll be okay if I have 4. Is this correct?


And, I just remembered I already have a DVD burner in the tower I currently have, so I probably won't buy the one in my list.

And... even if I don't NEED the extra wattage... just look how sexy that PSU is man. It matches the rest of my parts perfectly (expect for the stupid blue MB)
But nah, I'll definitely look around for a lower wattage one, thanks for the tip :D

I'm so fucking tired of hearing about 9/11. I can't even watch tv or browse the web without hearing a hundred different people screaming "9/11 WE WILL NEVER FORGET" in my ear.
It's been ten god-damned years since it's happened, let's forget about it already. People get more excited about 9/11 than they do about Christmas... it sickens me.

What bothers me the most, is the little slogan that everyone is going around saying... "we will never forget". The entire point of the attacks that happened that day was that the terrorists wanted to send a message. The number one thing that the terrorists could ever achieve with an attack like that, is that we would never forget it.

And then everyone and their grandma goes around all day talking about how sorry they feel for the people that were killed in the twin towers. What about the people that were in the pentagon? Nobody gives a shit about them? What about the people that were in the plane that crashed into a field? They weren't in the world trade center, so they're not important enough to be remembered too?

I wish everyone would grow the fuck up and stop blindly following the media. And don't get me wrong... I'm not at all saying that we should forget about the people that died that day, especially if you knew them or were in some way connected to them. But those people should be remembered every day, not just today, and people should stop making such a huge deal out of an event like this... get over it and get off the media's dick.

Not to mention that there were only about 3,000 people that died that day. And I know you're saying "Wtf, ONLY 3,000? That's a lot!", but look at it this way: 107 thousand Iraqi civilians have been killed during the current war in Iraq.... Let me repeat that in case you didn't read it clearly the first time... One hundred and seven THOUSAND Iraqi CIVILIANS have been MURDERED during the current war in Iraq. Do we have a day where anyone remembers those people? No. Do we have even an hour during one day that's dedicated to the memory of them? Nope. It seems like nobody gives half of a flying fuck about the people that our own military unrightfully murders, but when the tables are turned, everyone looses their fucking mind. Hell, I bet in 10 years from now, nobody will even remember the earthquake and tsunami that killed 30,000 people in Japan this year.

SCSI 68 pin -- don't worry about SCSI (or SAS), they're for specific business uses like running databases and such. Don't get this for home.
SCSI 80-pin -- same but MOAR PINS!
SSD 2,5 -- solid state drive, they don't come in the larger (Desktop) size because they just don't take up much space. Really fast, no moving parts. Probably uses the same S-ATA connector as the HDDs above.
SSD PCI-E -- like SSD 2.5" but plugs into the mobo directly for an insanely fast connection. Definitely not worth the price for home. This is another thing that's really for specific business uses unless you have money to burn.

On second thought there is one important advantage to all these functions.

Efficiency.

You can put checks in the comp funcs to handle things differently, but if the func only does one thing, then you never have to execute any instructions to make decisions like that.

And for sorting in particular that could mean a pretty big win.
New exercise from K&R, a program that sorts input lines in lexicographical order. It also allows a couple of flags that affect the comparing and the sorting part of the program.
It's an exercise that supposedly shows the usefulness of function pointers.

C code
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <string.h>

#define MAXLINES 100
#define MAXLEN 1000

int main(argc, argv)
int argc;
char *argv[];
{
char *lineptr[MAXLINES];
int nlines;
int strcomp(), numcomp(), dictcomp(), foldcomp(), dfcomp(), swap(), linesort(), revsort();
int (*cmpfunc)() = strcomp, (*sortfunc)() = linesort;
char *flag;
int fold = 0, dict = 0;

while (--argc > 0 && (*++argv)[0] == '-')
for (flag = argv[0] + 1; *flag != '\0'; flag++)
switch (*flag){
case 'n':
cmpfunc = numcomp;
break;

case 'r':
sortfunc = revsort;
break;

case 'f':
fold = 1;
break;

case 'd':
dict = 1;
break;

default:
printf ("Illegal option: -%c.\n", *flag);
break;
}
if (dict || fold){
if (dict && fold) cmpfunc = dfcomp;
else if (dict) cmpfunc = dictcomp;
else cmpfunc = foldcomp;
}

if ((nlines = readlines (lineptr, MAXLINES)) >= 0){
(*sortfunc) (lineptr, nlines, cmpfunc, swap);
writelines (lineptr, nlines);
}

else if (nlines == -1) printf ("Input too big to sort: too many lines.\n");
else if (nlines == -2) printf ("Input too big to sort: not enough room in allocbuf.\n");
else printf ("Input too big to sort - line too long.\n");

return 0;
}


That's the main part of the program (the whole thing is quite a bit longer due to the number of functions required).



The flags are as follows:

-n : Program sorts lines in numerical order from the lowest number to the highest. This flag was added in the book already, the rest were incorporated by me as a part of the exercise.
-r : Program sorts lines in reverse. This flag has to work in conjunction with any of the other flags.
-f : Program folds upper and lower case together.
-d : Program sorts lines in dictionary order (makes comparisons only on letters, numbers and blanks). It has to work with the -f flag.



The functions are:


strcomp() compares two lines and returns 0 if they are the same, a positive int if the first one is lexicographically larger (ie. if it comes after the second one in the alphabet), and a negative int if the first one is lexicographically smaller.
This function's pointer is passed as an argument to sortfunc if no flags that would change the comparison process are in effect.

numcomp() compares two lines numerically and returns 0 if the two numbers are the same, 1 if the first number is larger, and -1 if the second number is larger.
This function's pointer is passed as an argument to sortfunc if -n flag is in effect.

dictcomp() compares two lines lexicographically, but based only on numbers, letters and blanks, and returns the same as strcomp().
This function's pointer is passed as an argument to sortfunc if -d flag is in effect.

foldcomp() compares two lines lexicographically, but it doesn't make distinctions between upper and lower case letters, so that a and A appear adjacent, returning the same as strcomp().
This function's pointer is passed as an argument to sortfunc if -f flag is in effect.

dfcomp() combines dictcomp() and foldcomp(), returning the same as strcomp().
This function's pointer is passed as an argument to sortfunc if -df (or -d -f) flags are in effect.



linesort() sorts lines by comparing two lines, using the comparison function, the pointer to which was passed to it as an argument, and sorting them with shellsort from lowest to highest.
This function is used as sortfunc if no flags that would change the sorting process are in effect.

revsort() sorts lines in the same way as linesort(), except that it sorts them from highest to lowest.
This function is used as sortfunc if -r flag is in effect.



readlines() records the lines into allocbuf, using alloc() (also a function from K&R) and returns the number of lines (or a negative int if there is an error).

writelines() outputs the lines, after they have been sorted with sortfunc.



Now the program as I made it, works as it should, but I think it's way too complicated. It has way too many functions, and the fact that I had to make a whole new function just to incorporate support for a combination of two already existing flags (-d and -f), bothers me a bit.

I'd rather just use a few external variables (dict, num, rev, fold), initialize them to 0, and set them to 1 if their respective flags were used. Then I'd just use one comparison function and one sorting function, and change the proper parts of them to behave appropriately if any of the above external variables were non-zero.
Or is there some reason why using so many functions and passing them via pointers is a good idea?

I have been having really weird and intense dreams about once a month recently but i haven't had time to write them down until now because shut up i'm busy you can go to hell.

---

my mind is playing a reunion show for a popular early 90s drama featuring rich teenagers and their problems. it is ten years later and, on the lam from legal issues, our heroine has fled the beaches of Malibu to live in a secluded cabin with her now dottering parents. she emerges through the front door of the cabin, beleaguered, in a daze. her hair is the color and brittleness of summer straw baled in a late August field. her jeans, which she has torn by hand just before arriving, reveal superficial, bleeding scratches made by her own hands, though she has wiped the blood off her nails. she descibes a terrible accident up at the road, just barely survived. she needs help. her patents, both in recliners, turn to each other and smile. from a nook draped off from the entrance, a man dressed like a butler with a surgical mask emerges carrying a silver tray with a vial of morphine, a tourniquet, and a hypodermic needle. our heroine dashes over to a third recliner in the other adjacent room, a sort of dentist's chair position in front of a television and a gumball machine. the butler rests the silver tray on the endtable and the girl readies the tourniquet with the ease, speed, and precision of someone with a long-term habit. she releases the opioid into her bloodstream and is gone.

just then, there comes a harsh knocking at the wooden door, which is kicked open amidst splinters. it is her old boyfriend, from years and years ago, though since we last saw him he has gained a hundred pounds (if not a couple hundred), a few chins, and several folds. his days as a star quarterback seem like a distant, fevered dream. our heroine's parents exchange nervous glances, still say nothing. the ex-boyfriend, seeing his love-turned nemesis, grabs her by the shoulders and begins shaking her. "YOU DID THIS TO ME!" he says. he refers to another accident, many years ago, that he claims resulted in his weight gain, though we as objective viewers are to understand it to be a glandular problem as the result of a botched cosmetic surgery. he continues to scream at her. he screams so loud that the camera is able to go through his mouth and esophagus and view the contents of his stomach, where we find several packs worth of half-digested cigarettes.

--------------------------------------------------------

the day before the man says that the world is supposed to end, i dream that the rapture has already come and gone, months ago. since then, it's mostly been snow. it's now getting towards May again and as i look outside to the backyard (which now overlooks the stadium of a high school), all i see is a swirl of clouds, as dark at mid-day as the worst storm you've ever seen, no sign of light, just snow. i sip at a mug of something, likely cocoa, and look at the clouds again. there's cruise ship that emerges from the clouds, one of those giant ones the make round-the-world circuits that are several stories tall and capable of going months without seeing port. all of its lights are on and flickering against the haze. it crashes, bearing west, into the ravine of the stadium. moments later, an airplane crashes in the distance, then a tanker. some kind of battleship manages to clear my house just barely and then crash into the stadium at a perpendicular to the cruise ship. the clouds begin to clear a bit, for the first time in months, and figuring i have nothing better to do, i head out to investigate.

around the site, i find a couple, a man with glasses and a blue, plaid shirt and a woman with long dark hair, face down, whom i presume to be his girlfriend. the man is smiling. i reach my hand out to turn him over, but he catches flame, and continues burning until there is nothing left. his girlfriend does the same. maneuvering around the wreckage, i see a japanese man with long hair and a goatee, wearing a leather jacket. he sees me and starts to run, another survivor stumbles into his path and is pushed out of the way, at which point the survivor falls and also burns away into nothing. i don't have any better idea of what's going on than i did before, but i begin to suspect that this man has answers. i chase him up to the house and, lacking other options, find a dish of water that hasn't been frozen over yet and throw it at him. the water hits him and he begins to catch fire, quickly patting out the flames before resuming the run around the house. i manage to find other sources of water, taps, buckets, and within a few short minutes have doused and engulfed him so many times that he's collapsed, sizzling on the lawn, and makes no attempt to get up. i figure that i've either incapacitated or killed him and begin to wonder if the other crashed vessels didn't have something similar going on.

the weather has cleared up and everything is trying to be green again. i walk down into the valley beyond the stadium, past a police station, and find a large hardware store. since the rapture, most people have been looking for ways to busy themselves, or at least keep themselves from dying pitiful deaths, so home improvement has been a big thing to do. people have to do something. i follow certain instincts and head inside. behind the counter is a man in the clothes of a cop, but they don't quite fit him. he is tall, lean, has a shaved head. he talks to another man, heavyset and in his late 50s, also wearing a uniform. a third man, who resembles the fire man i found at the cruise ship closely enough to be an older brother, stands beside them, his hand folded behind his back. they talk secretively, the younger cop seems to complain of some awkwardness in their arrival. i begin to suspect them. the asian man looks at me and then puts his hand out to grab the shoulder of a passing customer, who like every other person these men have touched to this point, smiles and then burns.

the tactic is either one of intimidation or diversion, but the younger man seems confused by the proceedings, and stays put while the other two scramble away. i grab a bottle of water from a counter nearby, unscrew it, and toss it at the stationary man, but he is nothing more than soaked. water isn't going to work on this one. i try fire and cobble together something out of paint thinner and some sparks from a wiring cable i've torn off the wall. that works, and the man is incapacitated.

i check behind me and see the older, burly man. thwoing the cable at him produces no effect, and he picks up a nearby customer, who has the same fate befall him as every other, and throws the customer at me. it seems that they're just trying to rile me up now by causing as many casualties as they can. i manage to knock a barrel off the shelf onto the burly man, but he's only stunned momentarily and moves on. the two remaining men move to exit, and i see the first man, the hydrophobic one, join them at the automatic door. he seems to have recovered.

i conclude that they are feeding on the humans nearby and one had to have bumped into him. they leave and i figure myself to be in for a long day, but i'm able to conclude very little else. i don't know, for example, what these men are or why they are here, but i remember hearing reports of other parts of the world winking out of existence these past months. i also don't know what motivates them, or why everyone seems to be smiling as they turn to cinders. i don't know if they are good or evil, only that i'm trying to stop them.

@OP that/those is/are a/some really great article/s. Must-read for C coders.

It seems a biiiiiiiit FUDdy about UB, though.

In my experience, you only really run into UB when you already have a bug.

· Why would you try to shift a uint32_t by 32 bits?
· Why would you ever check if x+1 < x?
· Why would you malloc(INT_MAX)?

If you are doing any of these things, then you've already got problems, with or without UB. And UB doesn't really format your dog or send raunchy emails to the prime minister. That's just a fun thing to say.

People need to think about edge cases. And stop writing code so complicated that you actually need to think about sequence points. And don't use C unless you really need the speed (or are learning to use it, of course).

Anyone have any experience with MSI's laptops? I'm thinking of getting the gt680r.

Honestly, once you get up into that price range, I don't think the brand really matters. I just looked at the specs, and they're pretty nice, I think you would be happy with it.

Is it mandatory that you get a laptop though? Cuz for the same price, you could build a desktop that's ridiculous.

Well, it would be impractical, because I'll need to do a lot of computer work at school, and then I'd have to constantly transfer files and programs from the school's computer to my home desk computer.

Ah, school... then go with the laptop for sure :D
I just figured I'd mention it, cuz for some reason a lot of people will buy a laptop, and then never take it anywhere, so they could have spent the money on an even better desktop :P

But, I think you'll like MSI you mentioned. I looked at some of the reviews, and the one thing most people were complaining about was that the keyboard doesn't light up xD
There were a couple people who said the wireless card on it was kinda weak though, so if you're planning on using wifi a lot, you might wanna look into that.

Sounds to me like you have an adware problem. The first thing I'd do is run a program such as MalwareBytes to check your comp for malware.

The next thing I would do, is stop using internet explorer, because it's a pile of shit. Chrome or firefox would be your best bet.

If you insist on using internet explorer though, check to see if there are any plugins/addons/toolbars that are there that shouldn't be there. If there are, uninstall/delete them.

What about changing the port? If you can't change the IP of your router config page it seems unlikely that you'd be able to change just the port, but that would be the easy way. Alternatively you can change the port used for http/s in your server config, forward it in your router, and use rockbomb.com:newport to navigate there. Have you tried something like that yet, or is it a necessity to serve your site on port 80?

Also Supe's subdomain solution seems pretty legit, although I haven't tested that. If it works the way it seems, you could use the subdomain at home and the full domain everywhere else. Have you explored that option?


Well, the problem with the subdomain thing is, the entire site already runs off of a subdomain.
The domain I bought is zard0.us, but everything runs off of the subdomain ha.zard0.us
So... maybe I can do a sub-subdomain?


I'll try messin with the ports when I get home, hopefully that fixes it.

That's interesting, and exactly why I asked, since I was leaning the other way.

It's my assumption that even in the Year of Our Lord 2011 the average user won't see the MB / KB but rather just the 0.3 / 300. A third seems several orders of magnitude smaller than 300, even though their respective units of measure render them equal.

For those who may have a partial grasp on the matter, another assumption I've made is that 'a third of a meg' is more readily quantifiable to them than 'three hundred KBs.'

LOL...and I wonder why don't more people find this sort of thing interesting...

By the way, I remember a similar seed thing in Age of Empires II in map creation. How exactly does something like this work? They probably didn't make tens of thousands of different maps and assigned each one a different number.

I have just scratched the surface of DotA, yes. Not denying that. On the other hand I've never played a match where you're forced to play a random character (sounded like that's what you meant).

I don't either understand why people like the whole "control a single character which you can deselect" thing. LoL has made your champion always selected but you can still look at your enemies without loosing control of your own champion.

Sure, marking your champion to '1' for an example in DotA. DotA couldn't fix it and still make "stalking" your enemies possible because of the whole RTS-based game.

I'm not saying that HoN or DotA are bad games, I'm just saying that I don't like them.

Also, AJ, you said something about playing HoN free, are you doing that using Garena/something else? I could test it if it's free.

Yes. Indeed. That thing I said. LoL is just ghetto HoN/DotA. It incorporates metagame unlock bullshit that I hate as well.

It's weird how many people think that LoL is just as much like DotA as HoN is. The only thing that could possibly cause that is them simply having never played HoN and probably also never played DotA. Since if they had they'd be all like "WTF is this shit" and go play a real version of the game.

HoN=DotA. I never have enjoyed DotA. I do enjoy LoL.

LoL is similiar to DotA because of it's base (kill creep get money, pay money get stuff, use stuff kill players yadadadada). Then LoL removed the extremely horrible in DotA (Yaaay, 6 second stun with 4 second cooldown!) and made it more player friendly.

DotA players are more used to that so if they leave, they go to HoN which I'm happy about since they're really helpful to newbies. Glad I don't have to play against them.

@Sraw, click spacebar to automatically target your champion.

You can't deny creep, thankfully. In DotA most people play rangers.
You want to know why? Since they can deny so redicolously easy.

You CAN select enemy stuff! In your top left corner there's your champion. To the left of that you can see whatever you've marked.

Saying "it cannot be" without checking is the kind of... let's just say I've responded to someone's post with a possible solution, one page later it turned out that when they tried the thing I suggested it worked. Basically, try compiling and look at your memory usage. If you're on 32-bit Windows there is a maximum of 2 GB available to any one process. So check task manager while it's running.

Otherwise... sometimes bad map geometry will cause Bad Stuff (tm) to happen, so watch out for that (check for problems as mentioned by the duck).

Pretty certain I had a lucid dream this morning! I was kind of tired, I had woken up already but I fell asleep for maybe half an hour. Anyway, to the dream!

The first bit I can remember from was me sitting in something quite a lot like our student union. This was in fact what I supposed it to be at the time. I can't remember why I was there or much of what happened before (likely nothing, it's possible I 'arrived' there) but within a minute or two some people came and sat at the table. One of the guys was someone I know (but haven't seen for a while), I said "Hi Torrance" for that is his name and he said "What?" This was entirely reasonable as he was no longer who I had initially thought him to be. Considering this to be entirely reasonable, I decided to get up and go. On the way out the same thing happened with someone else - at this stage I still didn't realise I was dreaming. However, as I was leaving this place, I noticed an A4 sheet of paper on the door. The door was like the big heavy doors to tenement closes in Scottish cities. Before it closed a man I can only describe as "muslim" ran into the building, I thought I should maybe leave at this stage, because apparently dream-me is racist.

The point is, I was going to look at the A4 page again (which I had guessed was a list of names of people who live in the building, you get them often outside of flats where the occupants change year-on-year) but I didn't bother because... I was in a dream, so I'm not going to be able to read it. Then I was like HOLY SHIT and ran out into the street. It was nighttime, maybe 21:00, in a place that looked a lot like Glasgow. Or was somehow Glasgow-ish. I tried to fly, managed to get a couple of feet up then hovered and fell back down slowly. I then distinctly remember thinking "I need to find a bar!" then I woke up. Mental.

The air force is like a little city of tons of shit to be doing at a base and not haveing to go to battle. Pretty much if your not an officer your not flying and your on the ground. Not always but more brass in the air than not.

Anyways be ready for Blanket partys and drinking Tang in your canteen.

There are a few more thing you need to know before you go as well.

#1 Never eat the jello.
#2 Never eat the jello.
#3 If you eat the jello you did not listen.

Hey man, don't be nervous. As far as physical stuff goes, you'll be fine... only thing you gotta worry about is some guy yelling in your face. Just do what you're told, and you won't have any problems. Then you can work your way up, and eventually be the guy that yells at other people, which would be awesome.


Oh, make sure to bring a notepad so you can write letters... I've heard phone calls are expensive (and I'm pretty sure you can only call people on Sunday, or something like that).

Oh well you're trying to check if the link is a page with a video.

In that case you need to search the content for a <embed> or <object> with video-y stuff in it. But really there's no way to be completely sure.

If you're targeting YouTube then the watch?v= thing is fine.

When you post a TouYube on here, the forum code looks for the BifRBx92S9I garbage and then wraps it in some embed code. So everything from links, to page source should work.

The only thing you can do for that is log in on someone's computer, then make a server with "online=false" set. Beyond that you could just host your own, it's not tough...

strcopy(x,y)

I think your macro is wrong. You're failing to dereference the pointers. This:

c code
#define strcopy(x, y) while (x++ = y++);


should probably be this:

c code
#define strcopy(x, y) while (*x++ = *y++);


The other problem is that your ++s are modifying the pointers in place, which isn't a cool thing for the macro to do at all. You should probably do this instead:

c code
#define strcopy(x, y) { \
char *X = (x); \
char *Y = (y); \
while (*X++ = *Y++); \
}


With this macro you can use pointers or "strings" (really "arrays") and it should work, because it makes the pointers itself.

Error: More than eight wadfiles are in use

Like the damn thing says, more than eight wadfiles are being used. Since the compilers store the directory locations in a fixed amount of memory using too many wads can cause a lovely buffer overflow! So while it might say in the log "this may be harmless" it doesn't necessarily mean it. In fact if it warns you of this and your map has failed to compile consider this as suspect. Remove them and try again. Seriously, the number of times we've all seen this error. If you have, say, nine wads and are using one texture from each of them, you will need to merge wads.

Q: How do I merge wads?
1. Download and install Wally (yes, it's the same program you are told to install for making your own wads).

2. Open Wally and from the drop-down menus on the top, go to Wizard-> WAD Merge.

3. You can use either the Add WAD or the Quick Add, depending on your needs. (You can open the Add WAD to see what it has to offer)

4. Set all the other options to suit your needs (WAD type should be WAD3) and hit Go.

Oh and another thing. I am a sucki "lighter" , by that I mean I don't know how to make light look natural(I only know how to use light entity, I searched for another way to do it but no luck :( )

Thanks in advance
im thinking about making a trap near my cave thing.

first, i have a flat plain, one block deep with the sides covered with a fence, excluding the spider (so that mobs can jump in but cant get out).

next, im thinking of putting a water source on the left and right forcing the mobs to get into the middle.

then having them in the center i would put Pressure Plates (idk where yet) every so far so when a creeper steps on it my Dispenser will fire arrows at it.

so how do Pressure Plates and Dispensers work and would this plan work?

Maybe maybe not. I suspect a combination of popularity, or success among target demographic, creativity and/or skill in some way add up to or approximate this "unmeasurable" thing.

It certainly works in the edge cases:

Random noise: 0 skill, 0 popularity, 0 "magic"

Great song*: 1+ skill, 1+ popularity, 1+ "magic"

*by any reasonable standard


I'm not in love with magic having a quantitative value attached to it, but I like the general idea. If you're right about the statistical probability of Lemmy fudging the numbers I think this is the least flawed method of determining how good music is.

I still don't think it's a very effective method, however, just... less flawed. I think the only case in which you can truly determine that a song is good or bad is if it is somehow wide-spread and generally reviled. Then you can be sure it is definitely a bad song.

I sort of thought your original long post was a direct argument to me. I... uh... sort of made some assumptions there. Also, you weren't talking about the difficulty or rareness of playing or composing music. Your 'we' is misleading. A 'you guys' would be more applicable. You looked like you were about to start talking about that, but then you veered off and started talking about the popularity/quality thing again.

I don't think there is a an ethereal, non-specific good for anything.

With shoe quality, it's safe to assume we're talking about durability, comfort, protection etc.

With music quality, the fairest measurement I can think of is something like: how highly regarded is it among people who like it? How much skill and creativity went into it's production?

Even with shoes, you could have ambiguities. For example, what if I want a shoe to run a race in once? Suddenly durability is out the window and comfort and speed are all that matters.

I think music is the same thing. Its quality depends on what you want to use it for. If you want to use it to entertain, inspire, comfort or motivate a particular person or people then it's ability to do that is its "quality".

Quality is always context-sensitive.

If it's semantics then just replace skill with creativity in what I said before and I think it still works.

I think it's a combination of both though.

The problem with music in particular is there just aren't that many combinations of possible things to write. There's only a few notes/chords to work with. You can pretty much brute force it until it sounds good if you have a lot of time. And if what you think sounds good is the same stuff that gets popular then you can write popular music. (Then you need it performed, produced, and marketed -- the expensive parts).

Not all music is made for the general population. Some artists avoid doing that on purpose. If a song is popular and experts say it took no skill to write then it is both. No one is wrong.

The committees don't have a magic power to make everyone like what they pick. Commercial music can fail because it's not good enough. You make it sound like people are nothing but sheep being fed their Justin Bieber and liking it because they're told it's popular. I give people more credit than that. Justin Bieber IS a really good singer, and his music is definitely intended for pre-teen and teenage girls. If he changed his musical style and started making what you call 'good music' he'd lose popularity regardless of what the marketing told those girls. I don't think he's nearly as much of an automaton as you'd like to think.

To make things very clear, I don't think popularity is a very good way to measure how good music is in general. I just don't think there really is any other way to measure it. Popularity is a fairly arbitrary method of determining how good a song is, but every other method is pretty much 100% arbitrary. The whole point of a song is to enjoy it, if a ton of people like a song and an expert says it's bad... well... they weren't judging it on the only thing that actually matters. I'm not sure what they even could be judging it on other than whether or not people like it.

Why are we talking about this again, anyway? Weren't we supposed to be making fun of Outcast for thinking the composition of music is unimportant and easy?

You guys are all over-simplifying.

I don't think you can even really compare the "hardness" of these things.

For one thing, we can pretty easily measure someone's skill at playing an instrument by comparing accuracy to the sheet music or a reference performance.

You can't do anything like that with writing music. The popularity of a song does not tell you anything about the skill required to write it. In fact, it tells you more about the skill of the performer, the production quality, instruments used, pre-existing popularity of the performer, familiarity of sound*, and marketing.

Songs used in movies, TV, and radio become popular. Ones that aren't don't. Very few exceptions. This isn't just true for music, it's true for everything. If you never hear it or see it you're never going to like it no matter how much you would like it.

The fact is, there is waaaaaay more music than can ever be marketed or heard on a large scale.

It doesn't take me long to find extremely unpopular music that I like. Even though I think the artist is great, I know there's very little chance they will ever become popular. Not because they suck but because there's only room for so much popular music. You can't have 10,000 songs all popular at once, it just doesn't make sense.

We can't all be astronauts or pro-athletes, either, even if we are all perfect for the job(s).

As with anything, the best way to measure something is to ask the experts. Have a large group of music writers judge the skill of each other, and you can probably get a pretty good measurement.

But I don't see anyone doing that.

If you use popularity, at best you are judging skill at writing popular music, not general skill. At worst you're just measuring the factors I listed earlier and pretending you're measuring skill.


*It's been shown scientifically that people like music because they recognize it. Your brain is literally trained over time to become accustomed to the music you listen to, and recognizing the same patterns leads to enjoyment. This is why if any of you (probably) listen to very foreign music you won't like it. It won't even sound like music to you because your brain is physically not adapted in a way to recognize it musically. This is especially true of foreign music that uses a different scale with more or less notes.

Disclaimer: you are (probably) not a robot and your brain's musical recognition configuration is not the only thing that determines whether you will like a song. You can think too, so critical evaluation and emotions all play a role. You may not like a song because it sounds too unoriginal, for example. But generally you will like a song because it is both familiar and interesting in a new way.

I think the important thing that people with a viewpoint like Outcast need to remember is that good music is far harder to write than play. That, and it's far more important to be able to write it than play it. Tons of people can play a song correctly, but only one person was able to write it. Computers can do a pretty good job emulating the actual playing of music, but they certainly can't write it.


Uh no,practice (talking about instruments) takes a lot more than writing a song.Yeah,you can't always write a song that many people will listen to and go "holy fuck" but it's not very hard to write music,if you know scales and stuff.Let's say you wrote a song that has sixteenth notes in it,but you think it would sound better at about 180bpm but you can only play 100.Reaching there could take about a year or more in some cases.

Everything can be obtained without paying for it because you get turbine points by playing the game. Some things can be obtained somewhat faster by paying. NO good items can be bought with real money. The only things you really need to purchase with points are adventure packs, and you only need a couple of them.

There is no penalty for being F2P. You just don't have access to as many things right off the bat. You don't have access to everything right away as VIP either. They didn't split the VIP and F2P quests in any meaningful way. Which quests are good/worth a lot/fun is totally random and with no real connection to whether or not it's free. The really big thing here is that if you have even one friend that is VIP they can use a guest pass that lets you into a quest you haven't purchased... so if you're good at making friends you can go everywhere anyway.

There is no real max level any more. It used to be 20, but now you can reincarnate. When you reincarnate you go back to level 1, can change anything about your character other than your name, start with higher base stats (cumulatively every time you reincarnate) and keep all your items. (this is especially meaningful because the vast majority of items are obtained when you're well above the level requirement to use them) It takes 1.6 times longer to level each time you reincarnate, which thankfully only stacks to a total of 2.2.

People level at extremely variable rates, and it really depends on your character build. If you make a healbot cleric you will only level as fast as the best party you can find. If you make a monk you can go from level 1-12 even on a reincarnated character in 48 hours by soloing everything. This, of course, is only possible if you're an unstoppable badass like me. Leveling gets much, MUCH slower as you get higher level, though. It's possible to hit level 20 with your first character in less than a week, but most people will take a few months.

If you're willing to spend ANY money at all I'd suggest you buy the monk class (only after you've unlocked 32-point builds), because it's fun and relatively easy to get passably good at playing, and the Vale of Twilight adventure pack, because it alone can get you to level 20 easily. Vale is still the first thing you should unlock even if you're doing it the free way.

If you don't want to pay any money you should make a healbot cleric (NOT A MELEE CLERIC THEY ARE TERRIBLE AND EVERYONE WILL HATE YOU IF YOU MAKE ONE) because everyone will always want you in their group, or a wizard because they get unreasonably powerful when they hit level 7. They kinda suck before that... but good god. Fire wall is a retardedly powerful spell. If you're terrible at games you should make a fighter or barbarian because they're by far the easiest to play. They only have a small number of special abilities though, so don't expect them to be particularly exciting to play. They only thing you really, REALLY shouldn't start the game as is a rogue. It takes a huge amount of skill to play a rogue effectively, and even though they are unbelievably powerful in the right hands, trust me when I say you'll just die constantly without doing anything if you try to play one right off the bat. They have the lowest hp in the game, draw aggro like a giant shining beacon, have god awful resistance to spells and most of their stats are devoted to non-combat abilites.

You have to understand that there was a LAN party in which most of us were playing it for three or four days with limited interruption.

I think it's wrong to say I don't know what I mean by MMO when that was exactly what I was trying to say - though I clearly didn't put it as succinctly as "grind with a chatbox". Which they are, essentially. Because there was Hellgate: London, and it was basically a single-player game, but that didn't stop it being a bit crap. Fair enough if the game itself is actually fun though, I probably put enough time into Bad Company 2 doing what is almost the same thing over and over to count.
User
You don't understand. If you haven't played several MMOs just trust me. You don't understand. MMO is a terrible name for the genre. What MMO really means is grinding with a chat box. That is ALL it means. The grind might have some different art attached to it but in the end there is no real difference between something like Everquest, Asheron's Call, WoW or even EVE. They're all the same thing. All you do is grind. The only fun there is to have is by talking with people.

The reason DDO is different is because people play it single player. I'm usually not playing with other people or even talking to them. The game is fun on it's own without any interaction with other people. No other MMO can come close to making that claim. And I'm not just playing through something to level up or grind an item, I don't get anything out of the quest other than the fun of playing it at least half the time.

Sorry, I don't know of any way to do that.

In Hammer, everything is made of solid blocks of material called "brushes". Your 3ds files probably don't work anything like that.

You'd have to have a pretty specialized program for converting from one thing to the other.

A big problem is that in the game (HL, CS, etc) the map is in BSP format. You can't just build whatever you want. It has to be compatible with BSP. The simple way I can explain this is that your map has to be made of very simple rooms and hallways.

You can't even have big expansive areas (outside) without breaking the game. Go read about BSP to determine if you think your data is even compatible with this format:

Some of you may not understand the significance of discovering an sbanth mining facility, so I'll elaborate.

Minecraft is a game that lends itself to multiple playing styles, but in general, the game encourages building on a massive scale. Commie builds giant castles that aren't that interesting to look at but are still enormous. Crytax builds highways from one place to the next that are too large and of such a quality of material as to be kind of mind-numbing. aaronjer tends to build giant naked pictures of Zelda along with one or more Cloud Lodge Cumuli and Nezumi spends most of his time building elaborate redstone mechanisms or stuffing TNT into where it clearly doesn't belong. Superjer, at least recently, has been building monster traps and a large railway system. For my own part, I just build staircases, or bridges, or mineshafts that aren't that interesting unless I end up inspired somehow.

sbanth doesn't build anything, except for that one fishing lodge which you aren't allowed to litter in. sbanth just digs. Digging is the only thing sbanth does. There are almost never any torches, never any caverns that seem to open up, no directions are posted, and the shafts are never more than a block wide. sbanth mining operations continue until lava is reached, at which point sbanth dies, and then spends several hours trying to retrieve a corpse, only managing to create more and more corpses until eventually he gives up and starts doing something different.

So, you can see how clearly important this discovery is.

ACCURATE.

Also, despite the lack of any essential structure or defining features to the tunnel network, the only appropriate nomenclature is in fact "mining facility" as NatureJay has kindly pointed out.

I didn't get that far because I was sick of how often the effects of a button press changed.

In a Zelda game the only thing I want is for the game to give me a motherfucking sword and let me kill shit. So far Zelda 2 is the only one I've played where you just have the gog danmed sword when you start. Therefore it is the best.
User
Zelda isn't an RPG, it's just kind of a swing your sword at things and crawl through dungeons while controlling one character thing. Action-adventure for lack of a better word.

I like Metal Slug 2 better in part because it's harder.

Well, we know SuperJer already has a large list of words that he uses in the Headline Generator (which is fantastic by the way), so I assume he's tweaked it such that "ordinary" phrases don't really turn up. I've done a bit of work on grammars, it should be possible, I think. If you decompose the thing you are searching for into some number, jam that into your sentence-generator, you get consistent results but few (no?) collisions.

It works with page actions. I'm not sure about the rest though.

For Christmas my mum and I decided that the thing to do would be to buy a Kinect as I already had an Xbox, so we did. I hadn't been on my box for ages so I checked it a couple of days before, played a bit to make sure it was OK. The only way this story can end is with Red Rings of Death on Christmas morning, and that's how it did. £80 for repair, too! I will claim that back, one way or another.

Yes, so I see. Problem is slightly worse than I thought as you don't have enough RAM. On the other hand you can get more than enough for $30. Thing is, you're pretty much looking at a new computer, because that thing is very low-spec. How old is it? You could make your own, you know.
User
Or set the renderamount thingy in the funk_wall to 0.

And you could try shrinking the whole map by selecting the whole map (ctrl+a) then dragging the corner thing to make it smaller, but im not even sure that works since I don't have hammer on my pc anymore

User
so here is what i did!!

Created a cycler entity, pointed to the .mdl file!! Next i added an info_null entity on the floor, after that i created a block as a cylinder and used the "spot" texture and attached it into the lamp model. After that i made a light_spot entity just below the block!! I named the info_null entity "null1" and in the "target" field of light_spot properties i entered "null1"!!

Is that the correct way of doing such thing? :/
User
why dont u just make one


it dont seem that are hard to make it , instead of going through all the shit ,

then when u build the lamp put a light entity and group the whole thing and copy more if need them

Correct. It's nowhere near as cold in NYC though. Today it's going to be 2° C as a high and -3 C° as a low (35° F, 26° F). It's supposed to snow on Sunday and Monday and I hope that doesn't end up grounding my flight because the airport is retarded.

Latitude is just weird to think about. Seattle is the same latitude roughly as Zurich and Budapest, and a good part of Europe is above that. Or another weird thing to think about: Cairo is on the same latitude as Mobile, Alabama.

We have and the answer was ne'er found.

I'm not sure that that's provable. On the other hand perpetual motion violates lots of different laws of physics.

Your machine wouldn't produce motion. It could store it rather inefficiently, but where's the point in that?

It would be instructive to look at your setup and one that is the same except with the magnets removed. The balance of forces will be the same (as Edan said, zero).

And, of course, if you used it to induct a current it would slow down. It's odd but you can view it as a kind of friction: the electrons individually can be pushed around but when there's lots it can be a surprising force. If you have a hand generator you can feel the difference by hooking up lights of different wattages.

I like how I've said the same thing over and over in this thread in marginally different ways.
User
Yeah.I seem to remember a "things got hot and heavy pretty quick and now it's three days later and I was just fished out of the bay by commercial fisherman with a permanent smile and some new Italian loafers" message except it wasn't a run-on sentence, it just said that you were out of memory and Windows, like God, was dead.

Censorship
By: me

-Censorship
internet, books, road maps, the news and even the bible. It all has one thing in common; you cannot flip a page or look at something that has not been in discussion on “censoring”. The world is in on it, we know about it, we do not like it. So why do we let “them” do this. The examination of censorship in America suggests that censorship protects children but also it violates the 1st amendment. censorship protects children even if the first amendment is contradicted. People protest that the first amendment is what the United States of America is founded on and what makes us free. Other people explain that censorship will corrupt our kids if we do not stop things as things are with violent video games. What I think is that when I go on the internet I want to see the truth, things that I want to see and not lines of black on my texts not a white page that says “your organization has blocked this website”. Simple things such as going to cnn has “adult content” or going to other sites and have them misrepresented as such Foolery. Go to your nearest Safeway get on the internet and go to a website with some violence. The chances are that it will be Censored. The children need to know most of this IS on the internet and on TV. Not all at one time but if we keep them in the dark, children will not know what to do.

-“wanting censorship”
Freedom of speech is one of the most basic of human rights and yet there are some boundaries that need to be drawn with particular respect to sensitive issues. Ways that are common in censorship are enforced including bleeping words, blocking images, false info. Such particular issues can be language that is obscene. Movies, music, and news has most of this and it is censored for the sake of children. The government knows that and so they
do , bleep, block and insert new and “clean” information to them. “Children are our future”
should be the motivational thought when censorship comes to mind in the television companies.
Some reasons to be “for” censorship are for the children. The FCC is a company that is the main
hub of censorship in news, TV, and radio. They depict how they do not want the news to show
violence as much as possible. They cannot have nudity violence without the proper rating for that
movie. They tell troublemaker, rogue, bad robot DreamWorks, thx, pixar, that they cannot have
nudity violence without the proper rating for that movie. They do the same thing with everything
you can think of. There is a “FCC” for every country you can name/ all this is a good thing cause
if our children found out about the nudity and the violence it would corrupt there little minds
there are G, PG, PG-13, R, NC-17 that depict what movies will display in there theaters

-Reasons to not want
censorship are the kind of reasons that you want to know some information. I want to Google something about the columbine shooting. I do not want see a clean version of it was all cream and peaches, I would actually want to know the exact details of the town, day, time, how long. Blocking information should be a crime in the united states cause it is one of the things Americans embrace Such things as editing this game called “left for dead 2” the austilalians copy. compared to the usa copy it is cleaner but the hard core generic “shoot dead things” just does not fit with the graphics things as.
No gore: when you shoot a infected you see a small splash of blood, no parts will fly off
No blood splatter: you will not see blood spattering on the screen
No dismemberment: you cannot shoot or melee any limbs, and expect them to fall off
No corpses: as soon the infected hot the ground, the game renders them gone.
No burning: infected will not catch fire.
I expect somebody to say “well the game is cleaner and better with out all that killing and bad intentions“. the game or most things have a intention either to be clean or not. I ask you do you expect a game with one gun to be with good intentions? If you buy a expensive game you expect it to have the most of what the general it is and what you paid for. It would be a waste if it did not have the most gore as possible. What they are doing is denying great ideas that make great things games, books, and television. People who make this violence are not bad people , but creative ones.

-The bad things about censorship
is the over abuse of it. every body has heard of Alice In Wonderland and it is is most definitely not about drug use but over the years people have come to conclusions that it is because of parts of the book such as the one where Alice eats a mushroom. Certain people say that the reason that Alice becomes really tall and then really small in the book is because she is “high on magic mushrooms.” Alice In Wonderland is a great story for kids. It is about a young girl named Alice. Alice herself in a magical place called wonderland. This book was actually banned in China back in 1931 for another reason. Someone did not agree with animals being able to talk the way humans do. They thought that the book was “portraying animals and humans on the same level”
Catcher in the Rye is a book about violence and it makes more sense to ban the Alice in Wonderland. “Catcher in the Rye is the story of teenager Holden Caulfield's turbulent last few days before his Christmas vacation. During these days, Holden leaves Pencey Prep, a boys' school he's been kicked out of, and takes off for a few nights alone in New York City. Holden tells the story from some sort of a mental facility where he's recovering from the stress of the experiences he retells.” This book does have numerous scenes of violence but it is an overall good book. Should students stop leaning about the Second World War because we are afraid to teach them about violence? The answer is no, violence is all around us, and Catcher In the Rye is a healthy way of explaining that to kids. In 1991 Concerned Citizens of Florida challenged Catcher in the Rye. They believed the book was anti-Christian. They did not agree with the profanity, vulgarity, or the references to suicide. The review committee for this book voted that the book should stay in the library.
On September 11, 2001 the world witnessed the worst disaster in the history of North America if not the world since Pearl Harbor. The twin towers of the World Trade Center collapsed due to a terrorist attack on America. This event affected everyone very deeply, but that does not justify talking songs off the air by artists such as Creed, Savage Garden, Led Zeppelin, at one time, hit song Ironic was taken off the airwaves of many radio stations in United States and Canada because the song makes reference to a plane crash. Creed’s hit song, Higher, received the same fate when some angry people heard reference to flying or to be more specific “Can you take me higher?” in the lyrics. This song is about being brought to a place where everything is better and about creating that place here. It does not make sense for people to object to a song with such a deep and spiritual meaning. Both of these songs have no coarse language, sexual or rude remarks, or even any reference to fighting of any sort. It is unbelievable what they do to religions also.

-The good things about censorship are things that protect our children cause The beeps has become increasingly used in our society, so much that whenever we hear it. Every time we hear the beeps, we immediately wonder what word was just removed. Do not tell me you do not ponder it, however quickly, because I am absolutely positive you do. You can not help but wonder what word was just missing in action from that last sentence you just heard! In your head you know what word was It probably goes without saying that we’ve all been conditioned to accept that something naughty has been said when you hear the beep. Censorship can protect out troops it can provide safe for rape victims, relocated people, and most importantly it will keep the moral being of family together.

-In conclusion, censorship in music, TV, maps is wrong in my opinion. Artists in both music and art should be allowed to say/paint whatever they want. That is what our founding fathers based this country upon: freedom. The government is doing an excellent job in making the First Amendment suitable for all. If parents have a problem with it, it is because they did not properly supervise their children.

Have a mini-internet for kids, such that it is accessible to anyone on the Internet, while those on the mini-net cannot access the "real" Internet.

Have a completely separate computer network for children.

Parallel chat network for children and ONLY children.

Internet servers for children that restrict potentially obscene newsgroups.

It's the nature of internet that most simple protections can be defeated and parents should know that!!!

I don't like them because that thing he does instead of singing is god awful. When he isn't coughing up organs and is actually singing I like it, but that almost never happens. I don't know anything about their politics, nor would that influence my opinion of their music. There's lots of actors I like that I think have retarded politics, I just don't see why that should matter.

I used the two names in the same sentence since In Flames collaborated on a song on the latest Pendulum album, and it's fucking terrible. Pendulum is dancy/catchy, but not the best music in the world. In fact the only band mentioned in this entire truck that I actually like is In Flames, and only three albums at that.

And oh, yeah, I dislike SoaD's music. Don't get me started on their 'politics...' - although I do like the whole Armenian Genocide thing - who knew that 'terracotta pie' actually meant 'Young Turk Revolution'?!

Censorship
By: Dustin Hoffman












Censorship
internet, books, road maps, the news and even the bible. It all has one thing in common; you cannot flip a page or look at something that has not been in discussion on “censoring”. The world is in on it, we know about it, we do not like it. So why do we let “them” do this. The examination of censorship in America suggests that censorship protects children but also it violates the 1st amendment.

censorship protects children even if the first amendment is contradicted. People protest that the first amendment is what the United States of America is founded on and what makes us free. Other people explain that censorship will corrupt our kids if we do not stop things as things are with violent video games. What I think is that when I go on the internet I want to see the truth, things that I want to see and not lines of black on my texts not a white page that says “your organization has blocked this website”. Simple things such as CNN having “adult content” or going to other sites and have them misrepresented as such Foolery. Go to your nearest Safeway get on the internet and go to a website with some violence. The chances are that it will be Censored. The children need to know most of this on the internet. not all at one time but if we keep them in the dark that the things
Some reasons to be “for” censorship are for the children. The FCC is a company that is the main hub of censorship in news, tv, and radio. They depict how they do not want the news to show violence as much as possible. They tell troublemaker, rogue, bad robot, DreamWorks, thx, Pixar, road house that they cannot have nudity violence without the proper rating for that movie. They do the same thing with everything you can ever think of. There is a “FCC” for every country you can think of. All this is a good thing cause if our children found out about the nudity of the violence it would corrupt there little minds. There are G, PG, PG-13, R, NC-17 that depict what movies will display in there theaters.

Explaining specifics when you've never played HoN or DotA would be pointless. LoL and HoN/Dota are about as different as TFC and TF2. Pretty damn different, but there are similarities. Just go play HoN or DotA and then knowledge will be yours.

I prefer HoN because I never got bored of DotA and LoL feels like a cheap knockoff when compared to it. Same kinda thing with the TF games.

I understand that there is no NEED for any sort of compassion on the internet, but that doesn't mean that you shouldn't try anyway. I think that is what separates those who want to try to be good people from those who don't care.

Yes, internet trolling is all fun and games, and shouldn't be taken seriously, but it is still a very interesting thing when you take into context that there are real people on the other side of your magic electric box.

He's trolling on the internet. Its not something to take seriously no matter what he says. I'm not offended by it in the least, because I know, face to face, he would never say that shit. Jus' like I know he'd never call a gangster a nigger to his face, or laugh at a rape victim. He sees the distance between him and whoever he is trolling as security, which makes him a pussy.

The worst thing you can do to a troll is ignore him. He is only interested in your responses, in making you mad or sad. SRAW is the type of person that hurts animals and then laughs about it. SRAW is truly fucked up in the head.

I told RB I'd get some pics for him, so I did.

The Story:
My sister-in-law called me up and told me I needed to spend the night at their house, because there was an electrician coming out the next day. Everything was fine that night, and I fell asleep on the couch.

I woke up, I can't remember what time, and felt absolutely sick to my stomach. I felt worse than when I had food poisoning at MEPS. So I sat-up and eventually the sickness went away. I woke up sometime later, and jus' felt like there was something wrong. I got up and turned the light on. Then I noticed there was a hole in the ceiling and a little flame beyond it.

Next thing I remember is waking up on the floor. I got up and woke my sister-in-law and her daughter up. We made it outside and I sat down in the Wrangler, because I could barely walk. I got a few breathes of air and felt better, so I went back inside to help get the dogs out. I remember a brief moment when my sister-in-law was holding me up and yelling something.

We successfully got everybody and all the dogs out. We waited for the fire department to get there, I've no clue how long it took them. They talked to us a little bit, then went and did their jobs.

I got put on oxygen in the firetruck. Eventually the ambulance gets there, and I was moved to it and put back on oxygen. I was on oxygen for more than 2 hours. I had a CO level of 23, that is 23% of my blood contained carbon monoxide instead of oxygen. And, during the whole 'escape' sequence I passed out 3 times.

What makes this statement a paradox is the fact that it makes perfect logical sense, except for the fact that it makes perfect logical sense.

The initial statement makes sense, as the statement is not a shrimp and is paradox. However, paradoxes do not make sense, so the fact that it makes sense and is a paradox makes no sense, making it a paradox.

That showed an impressive degree of a lack of understanding of the current conversation, Cloud.

Personally, as far as the heap/bale thing goes there's two responses I might have. The first is that I'd give it an exact mass requirement to be a heap/bale like DR did and would strictly adhere to that measurement. The second, and far more likely, would be that I wouldn't care enough because it's very unimportant whether or not heaps are classified correctly or not.

I should probably give Wilco another shot one of these days. I listened to A Ghost is Born a few times but kind of got bored by it except towards then end when they were doing the Sonic Youth "and now we will play this guitar with a garden rake" thing.

I like Radiohead plenty, I'm just not of the opinion that some people are that they are the Jesus band.
Unrelated, but still fun to think about:

Quote:
Otherwise known as the "heap paradox", the question regards how one defines a "thing." Is a bale of hay still a bale of hay if you remove one straw? If so, is it still a bale of hay if you remove another straw? If you continue this way, you will eventually deplete the entire bale of hay, and the question is: at what point is it no longer a bale of hay? While this may initially seem like a superficial problem, it penetrates to fundamental issues regarding how we define objects. This is similar to Theseus' paradox.

Well, the thing is.. they're not joking. Yeah, they do have a lot of songs in which they are joking, but a lot f them they are serious... for instance, the Miracles song. If you don't believe me go watch some of the interviews they've done about it.


But either way, the reason I can't stand listening to them isn't too much because of their music (which lets be honest, 90% of it is crap), but instead this supposed 'family' that follows them. Every juggalo I've ever met has been a complete moron, and if you tell them that you will get the same response every time "Why don't you say that to my face when I'm with my family? We'll all come with axes and chop the shit out of you! WHOOP WHOOP CLOWN LOVE!".

DR, I guess the thing about it is, this wasn't just something that happened today... he's asked me constantly since I put my server up. I was decently polite about it until he made this post, but frankly its gotten quite ridiculous and I just don't wanna deal with it anymore.

@Sprinkles - Sorry if I pissed you off, but you're still not getting access to my server. Despite what you think, it IS a security risk (and I've seen the things you do when you're mad). I realize that Superjer gave you access to his, but there are two things: 1.) He has a lot more experience with this stuff and I'm sure his server is a lot more secure than mine. 2.) He is a very trusting person to let so many people have access to his server. I don't know anyone else who would give out access like that, and I personally wouldn't trust anyone but me and two or three other people that I've known most of my life to have access on there.

You can edit the bots navigation thingy manually, but I forgot the commands but I know there is a tutorial here : http://www.twhl.co.za and under the source tutorial section there is a thing about how to make the waypoints for bots in css, which is the same as for bots in 1.6 ...

or you could delete the .nav file in your maps folder and hope that the bots autowaypoint better next time.
User
Thank you, i'll get on it :). Especially the Bots-wont-go-there thing is bugging me, and thats not in FAQ for as far as i see. Thanks anyways :)


And also: After you enter a skybox like it says in the FAQ, how do i make it show? Do i just take the roofs off?
User
OK be prepared cuz this is alot of problems:

1: Does Cstrike have things like driveable cars and turrets?
2: How do i make water that is transparent, and where you can swim and drown in? Where can i find textures to this/which do i use?
3: How do i add background sounds to my map?
4: how do i make a map edge that has sky on top, and water on the bottom, like in as_oilrig? And how do i make an edge where you fall off, then die after a certain point?
5: How do i make a moving, button activated elevator?

And finally the thing i really need answered, its blocking me from making any maps but the most simple.

I made a map, called it de_bricks.
Bots take the central, obvious way always, but this usually leads to a confrontation in a central chamber without the bomb ever getting planted. So i made a hall from the side of both spawns, that leads to site A. A is connected by a ladder to B, which is right above this. Yet i cannot get bots in any way to take either the ladder or the extra hallways. I know this has probably something to do with waypointing, but only sollution i find is for Source. Again, i have Counter strike 1.6 No Steam, i think this is Counter Strike 1.5. I learned mapping using this tutorial: http://www.superjer.com/learn.php


Also, just a small problem: I start and play counter strike 1.6 no steam. It has a button that says 'change game'. I can switch to half-life, but i can't start any game or so. It just refuses to do anything no matter how many times i click the button, or the game just crashes. No error log, no computer crash, just game quit. Any sollutions/reasons to this?

Light's massless, actually, but is affected by gravity. Einstein thought of it as... it's like travelling in a straight line, but in four dimensions, which are curved. Bit complicated.

how do i change my bicycle tire.

This is how I change my bike tire
You will need
Putty knife or screw driver
A bought inner tube and tread
Crescent wrench
Butter knife


Use the crescent wrench to Unscrew the bolt attached to the tire, to the frame
Pull the rim out of the bike frame
Take the rim and place it on your lap (you must be sitting down for this)
Take a screw driver or putty knife and place it underneath the rim in-between the rubber tire (a.) don’t pinch the inner tube with the screw driver
“jimmy” the tread out of the frame making sure you don’t pinch the tube
When you have one side of the tread out pull the whole thing with your hands (a.) don’t pinch the tires inner tube

By now you should have just the tire frame and separately,

Now put air in to the inner tube just enough to have the O shape to stand up by itself
Put the inner tube into the bike tread evenly with the tire aired up
Now jimmy one side if the tire tread onto the rim
Align the air valve to the rims designated hole
When you have one side of the tread aligned to the rim
Use your fingers to pop the tread into the rim
When all thats done pump the tires up to 60 psi

I thought MIT had an assembly class on OCW, but I can't seem to find it. I'll keep searching for the link, I know I've got it bookmarked somewhere...

I agree on starting simply. Another thing you can do: if you know other languages, some IDE's will show you the assembly for what's happening while you're debugging. I know Eclipse does it with C, can't speak for anything else.

I had a dream with an impressive plot twist.

I was a spy for a sort of global criminal organization. One of those James Bond type organizations except without silly giant lasers and ridiculous henchmen. We still had an evil island headquarters though. We were pretty much just making money illegally and occasionally assassinating people. Of course, in James Bond fashion, there was a super-spy and a secret government task force out to stop us.

The super-spy's codename was Idea. I never found out her real name. She was tall, beautiful and a total badass. Everywhere she went our schemes fell into disarray. I have fond memories of escaping from one of my organization's secret mountain bases just before she blew it up. I believe that occurred in Switzerland. As time went on I noticed more and more that although she had impressive combat skills and a tactical mind, nearly endless resources, and competent allies her most potent weapon was luck. Buildings would crash down around her and leave her unscratched, while crushing her enemies. That sort of thing.

My organization's evil board of directors decided to lay a trap for her. We leaked information about our secret island headquarters while at the same time we moved our important assets elsewhere. Our plan was to set an ambush for her there, which I was the leader of, and if we failed we'd blow up the entire island and her with it. For once, everything seemed to be falling into place for us. She came to the island alone, and after a short chase we managed to corner her up against a cliff. Before I finished raising my gun to shoot her I was already worried because of the grin on her face. My handgun was freed from my grasp by means of a sniper bullet, and my team was immediately shot dead by special forces hiding in the forest around us. She knew who I was, and knew that I had information. As a last ditch effort I activated the detonator to destroy the island and with it both of us. Quite unpredictably, it did not function. She told me she had already disarmed the bomb.

This... this was not possible. Not even just villain yelling "IMPOSSIBLE!" kind of impossible. It was really, actually and totally impossible. I had just set the bomb and walked out of the only entrance to the base to meet her as she came in from the beach. My people were watching her the whole time. Maybe someone else could have disarmed the bomb, but it certainly wasn't her. I mentioned my revelation to her, and to my surprise, she looked just as confused as I was. She then looked as though she had just come upon a most horrifying realization. At that moment the world began to fade away. Everyone and everything except her slowly turned dark and disappeared. She fell unconscious and to the non-existent floor. At the same time she inexplicably lost a decade of age. She had been in her late twenties before and now looked like she was about eighteen.

A new world formed around us. A small, poorly lit world. Even with only morning light coming through a covered window I could tell this was a teenage girl's room. Cluttered posters of sexy men and cosmetic messiness. Idea was in what appeared to be her bed, just stirring to wake up. It then occurred to me that I had not traveled through time, and that this wasn't some ridiculous plot to extract information from me. Everything had been her dream. It made perfect sense. She was the center of everything and her luck really was a thing of fantasy. The only thing that didn't fit is that I didn't disappear with the fantasy. My suit was even still a little sandy from being on the island.

I was at a complete loss for action or words. I had no immediate reason to kill her anymore, as she clearly wasn't an actual super-spy... and the criminal organization I worked for didn't even exist. I tried desperately to think of what I should do in this situation when Idea's yelp of surprise brought me to full attention. She was just as surprised to see me as I was to exist. My impulsive instinct was to shoot her and run away, and my back-up handgun had come out of the dream with me. I did not do this though. My curiosity was a strong deterrent. Also one has to be very determined to go through with the shooting a of a pretty, unarmed girl in her underwear. I was greedy evil, not psychopath evil. Then she started screaming, I guess she was at a loss for rational action in this irrational situation as well. I instinctively pulled out my gun and pointed it at her, but this only made her scream incoherently and interject phrases like "don't shoot me" and "he's got a gun".

Before I could put the gun away, which I now felt foolish for bothering to point at her, her parents burst in through her door. They angrily asked me who the fuck I was. I responded truthfully by telling them I didn't know because she didn't think up a name for me. The father, armed with a .45, clearly believed me to be armed and insane and fired at me. With apparent success I dove out of the way and fired back. I was an excellent marksman in Idea's imagination, and that didn't change here. I was quite sure I had put a bullet in both her parent's brains, regardless of how tangled I was with Idea after having dived in the direction far less likely to receive bullets. Despite this, her father continued to be alive and point a gun at me. I fired again with no effect. I paused with confusion and her parents paused with hesitation. I suppose Idea preferred to be alone in bed, and she unceremoniously dumped me on the floor. Now clear of accidental daughter shooting tragedies, Idea's father shot at me. His weapon also seemed to be firing blanks. I leapt up and threw a punch at him, which he was too inept to step out of the way of, and I found myself stumbling on the other side of him.

Apparently I had been reduced to being Idea's imaginary friend. Except I was more an imaginary enemy... and everyone else could see me... and I could touch her. I also seemed to be able to interact with physical objects in a frustratingly arbitrary manner. I did not pass through her bed or the floor I was standing on, but I did pass through his clothes as I passed through him . It was like a poorly written movie and I found it to be most irritating. Her father turned around to look for me, after I had got all up in his face and disappeared from his perspective. I attempted to grab the gun out of his hand, and much to my surprise, it actually worked! I was pretty sure I could really shoot him with this gun. Luckily for Idea's family structure and income, I realized he had no way of harming me before I decided to shoot him.

Sadly, I remember almost nothing after this point, as people wouldn't quit distracting me from writing this. There was something about a war going on with aliens which turned out to really be between God and the Devil. I was the only one unaffected by the devil's evil powers because I wasn't real or some shit like that. Also I'm pretty sure I sexually assaulted Idea in a bathroom at some point... while her friends were there. Hey, it was her fault I was evil. Shut up.

In my map I comes a sound when a player picks up a kevlar, and it is only one on the map. The thing is that can I somehow prevent the sound from comming if the player allready have a kevlar from one of the last rounds? Or strip him from the kevlar the player allready have so the player can get a new one?


How can I get trigger_multiple only work once everyone round and reset itself the next round?

So, if you haven't heard yet, there is an organization called COICA (combating online infringement and counterfeits act), and they are about to pass a bill that will allow the US government to censor the internet, as places like China and Iran do. Rather than telling about it myself, there's a good article about it here.

Also, if you are in the US you can sign a petition against it, here.




On a side note, while I'm against them censoring the internet, I also think this could be awesome if they do this. For one, if they start taking down sites like youtube everyone is gonna go crazy, and it'll be hilarious. Two, I think this would be a great opportunity to start up a "new internet"... get rid of all the ISP's, and start setting up small connections within neighborhoods/cities/towns, then the towns can start connecting, then the states, then we launch a satellite and reconnect with the other countries. It'd take a while, but I think it would be a good thing. Not only would everyone get free internet, but while we're still in the process of bulding this "new internet" people will have to rely more on each other, businesses will have to work hard and do good work to get customers instead of just paying for ads on google, and I think it will make this country a better place to live.

Well enough of my rambling, what are your thoughts on this?
User
Let's go with "appear". Because as has been outlined from the stick's frame it is normal size. The thing to take away from this discussion is that things you might normally take as constant (lengths, speeds, that sort of thing) are not in fact constant. You should in fact rely on the speed of light in vacua to be constant, no matter your inertial frame.

So seeing as how I bought a domain, I figured I'd better set up bind on my server so I can actually use it. Thing is, I know nothing about BIND, so I picked a tutorial that made decent sense and went with it. Sadly, it didn't seem to work... here are the results:

I think the key to the problem is that there is no such thing as "two events occurring at the same time" when they are separated by space. At least in absolute terms.

Yes! Well, kind of. Observers moving relative to one another will in general disagree about the simultaneity of events. At speeds where relativity kicks in of course.

RB, NatureJay is talking about General Relativity. Basically, masses warp both space *and* time with the result that clocks in a stronger gravitational field (or accelerating strongly) appear to tick more slowly. Sounds a bit esoteric but this result is necessary to make GPS work!

Finally this is all thought-experiment, so we're assuming that the doors work properly for our purposes and that. I'm a physicist, not a masochist.

In fact, you could kind of do it in an actual experiment by knowing the velocity of the stick in advance, then synchronising clocks at each door. You then know where the stick will be and when it will be there and can set the doors to open and close at the correct times. That way the stick will definitely "see" the doors opening and closing at different times.

Keep in mind also for this barn example to work, the whole thing has to happen in the tiniest fraction of a second. Any information at all travelling from one barn door to the other is going to take almost as long as it takes the stick to go through.

To put it another way, by the time the light from the one momentarily-closed door gets to the other, it's already open.

Or something like that.

Seriously. Just shut the fuck up about hacks. Do not post things about hacks other than that you hate them. Also do not post pictures of a 9-year old boy having sex with a dog on top of a Lamborghini. That would also get you banned.

Well, I wasn't planning on using this alt account to post, since I know it will just piss you off more, but I'm banned already anyway so what hell, might as well use it to throw my opinion out there...

As for your comment on nobody believing that I don't hack, why don't you ask around a little before making a comment like that. I play cs with Sprinkles and Havok on a regular basis on AOG's servers, and I've played with a few other members on here at Sprinkle's beta testings... they can all attest that I don't use any hacks.


And, as for my continuation of talking about hacks, you continued talking about them as well, and I was merely responding to your(and other's) posts... if you wanted the conversation to end, why did you carry it on?
And the link I posted? Did you even look at it? It was about how aimbots use trigonometry and other math skills to calculate where other players are in location to yourself. Yes, its about hacking, but it was actually very interesting and was not anything anybody could just download and use, or even really promote the use of any hacks.


So, I'm guessing this account will be promptly banned as well, but seriously... please change my title. At least ask around to the people who have played with me (or hell, why not play with me yourself?).

OK then.

If anyone else is having trouble with this here's what I recommend:

On computer A open a command prompt by running (Windowskey+R) cmd

At the prompt, run ipconfig and look for where it says IP Address or IPv4 Address. This is computer A's local address. Let's say for example it is 192.168.0.143

Go to computer B, open an explorer window and navigate to double-backslash-computer-A's-address. For example \\192.168.0.143

If it doesn't work, try the same thing from computer A to B.

Nothing will show up if you don't share a folder first.

You may be asked to login when you try to connect. You should be able to use your Windows username and password on the target machine.

If you are trying to connect from a Linux computer to Windows, use the smb:// protocol, for example smb://192.168.0.143

You've already permanently destroyed your reputation around here, there's no need to get yourself banned by continuing to act like hacks are in ANY way acceptable to have anything to do with.

I'm surprised you wouldn't already know that most people will NEVER PLAY GAMES WITH YOU AGAIN if they believe you are a hacker. You are obviously a hacker, or you wouldn't be talking about this, so it really is amazing you wouldn't know not to talk about it.

User
I've used both a great deal. Both are passable. Teamspeak is worse. The price is a ridiculous thing to let alter your decision, unless you're living in Africa and only have the equivalent of like a dollar to spend every month.
User
I didn't specify what I mean when I said success. I wasn't implying anything about how much money it made or anything like that. That sentence was just supposed to be taken as "Target audience enjoyment = How good it is."

There is a reason why you can't qualify how good a song is by how it is written or what it sounds like. It has too little to do with people actually enjoying it. Someone like you or me has the ability to analyze a song and determine in a relatively 'expert' way if it is original or well-written. Most people do not have this ability in spades. Most people determine to themselves whether or not a song is 'good' simply by finding out if it is on the radio and if it is by an established artist. That is more important to people than any actual property of the song. I'd LIKE to say that is unimaginably stupid, but I won't pretend that wouldn't just be my bias in musical taste talking. I can't say those people are judging music the wrong way because I certainly can't determine that they are enjoying themselves any less than I am.

The funny thing is that I do the same thing as the people who judge music by something other than it's artistic qualities. I'd say about 55% of my opinion of any given song is based on what the song is used in. This is why I primarily listen to music that is from games/movies/TV shows. I can easily recognize that a lot of music that I listen to I wouldn't enjoy if it wasn't from something I like. I COULD still analyze the music I listen to and determine if it is well-written in a music theory sense... but what's the point? It wouldn't change whether or not I enjoy it.

I'm sure that some people base their opinion of a song solely on it's artistic qualities. I agree that it would make more SENSE if everyone did, but in the end it's just snobby to declare a song good or bad in general based on such an underused set of criteria.

So this all means that determining how good a song is has to take in all sorts of factors. The factors are wildly different depending on the target audience. For someone like Ke$ha to make a good song she simply has to make sure it isn't too different from current pop music to be accepted. That along with the song having her name attached to it and it playing on the radio will make her target audience like it, and thereby mean the song was good. The factors for someone making music that you or I would enjoy are totally different. The problem I have with this author is that he is applying the factors of his kind of music onto another. Pop music doesn't follow the same rules as whatever music you listen to, author guy! Stop trying to stuff it into your mold, author guy! It makes you look like an elitist asshole, author guy! Figure out that the only thing that matters is if people ENJOY a piece of music, author guy!
User
Before saying anything about this pop star person he doesn't seem to like, the author made himself out to be a fool. By the way, I don't like or dislike this... Ke$ha? I have no idea who she is.

Which brings me to his first stupid thought. The author assumes I know who he is talking about as if everyone does. He apparently assumes all people watch TV or listen to the radio.

He then moved on to his whole thing about how some people use CD players or equivalent and some people use radios. He then went on to say that he uses a radio as if he'd rather be using a more controlled form of music. He then even says he is caused great distress by what he hears over the radio. So... uh... how about instead of spending all this time writing an essay you go GET A FUCKING CD PLAYER?

I was pretty much done with the article by that point.
User
Wow. That entire essay was jus' rambling. I'm not defending the slut or anything. But come on, when you're writing anything about how retarded somebody is, you don't need to give me the exact day/time/event you heard it at.


Jus' out of concern, who zips a padlock? I'm pretty sure, if all a padlock did was zip the security measure of it would drop significantly.

And another thing, does it annoy/piss off anybody else how they say "It only matters who I is?"

Now my problem is, I downloaded the latest version of metamod and I can't get it to work. So once I figure out how to get this newest metamod working, everything should run fine

im just putting this here so i can copy paste it on another computer hope you dont mind

This map offers a slightly different gameplay because of the blocks they can be used as references.

Heres a list of kewl stuff

Pink Blocks(1) - 150w 16l 36h i made it so 150w is a good length 16l is half of what a player is so it can be used as references and 36h is your height when you crouch theres - 10 pieces

Pink Blocks(2) - 150w 16l 72h same thing except 72 height is your height when your standing - 10 pieces

Purple Blocks(1) - 16w 150l 36h same as pink blocks(1) but different direction - 10 pieces

Purple Blocks(2) - 16w 150l 72h same as pink blocks(2) but different direction - 10 pieces

Blue Blocks - 32w 32l 216h these are cylinders at the height of 3 players so it would take 2 or 3 people to boost to the height of this making it a good reference tool - 9 pieces

Gray Blocks - 150w 150l 150h its a big gray box - 1 piece

Light Green Blocks - 32w 32l 36h its a box that is the size of a crouching player great reference tool for nojump - 27 pieces

Tan Blocks - 32w 150l 18h its a roof piece and 18h is half the height of a crouching player and 32w is the width of a player

Yellow Blocks - 150w 32l 18h same as tan but different direction

Dark Green Blocks - 150w 150l 18h its a roof piece that is purely for putting roofs on tunnel bases but also has the 18h reference

Light Blue Blocks - 32w 32l 18h its a sqaure for treehouse jumps potentially and good reference tool

Red Blocks - 32w 32l 18h same as light blue but its turned so its like a diamond shape

Rainbow Blocks - 32w 32l 18h super mega awesome surprise

I'm using the ZHLT compiler with the .bat as in the site's guide, VHE's is freezing Valve Hammer.

Anyway, I think I fixed the previous ".WAD" error, this is what you do, move the .WADs to the same drive as the one the compiler is on, it should fix it.

Thing is, the compiler is still giving me the "The system cannot find the file specified". This is the problem I'm having trouble with, anyone have any solution to this problem? I'm in desperate need to play my map... I even made a new one, still the same problem, seems the problem is from the compiler or my computer.

Hi guys. I'm kinda new with Hammer and got stuck on two things.
First i want a glass wall to be unbreakable and you want br able to shoot through it.
Second, i have a wall that i want to be lower down to the ground. It's hard to explain with English
Imagine a wall that sink through the ground like a elevator.

EDIT: The elevator thing is complete.

They don't do it constantly, I've only heard of hit happening a few times. It's not a matter of stealing the images so much as the bandwidth theft for people that aren't actually visiting the site.

It's a case-by-case thing, I think. This site wouldn't result in a whole lot of bandwidth loss, so they probably won't care. It could still happen.

You see, Chrome's 'sandbox' is that it runs multiple process and lots of threads. If you knew anything about programming you would realize how hard it is to invoke something from another thread. So basically, you can have a malicious site on one tab, and all your important, confidential information on another tab. The malicious site is not granted access to the information on any other tab, thus you are safe. The same goes for the processes.

The really important thing is the multiple processes (at least on Windows). You can run a process with very restricted access. It's not just about protecting your other tabs either. Sandboxing web pages, scripts and plugins stops malware from infecting your computer as a whole.

People have tried to switch us off ventrilo in the past. It has not worked. I don't think our server even has a password, seeing as the occasional confused Turkish guy joins and eventually gets himself banned via not shutting up. We even made a Turkish channel for them to go not shut up in, but they won't go into it.

I suppose I have no reason not to just say our server is:

vent2(dot)gameservers(dot)com
port: 4546

You'll get banned in about 5 seconds if you start speaking any language but English, or start playing music over the microphone, or talk to anyone whose name starts with "J". You may want to just download Pirates, Vikings, Knights II before even coming on, since it's the only thing anyone plays right now.

I'm not talking to anyone in particular here. Anyone here can come on the vent server. You probably won't see anyone on until around 9PM PST though. Remember, this is not MY server, although I CAN unban you.

Hmmm.... just did some research on this whole supposed sandbox-within-chrome thing.
Turns out I'm wrong, there really is a "sandbox" built into chrome.

But to me, its not a true sandbox. Its more like one of those things that they fill up with shredded tires and claim that its safe but then when you fall off the swing and break your face you realize its not as safe as you thought.

In fact, it kinda bothers me that they even claim it to be a sandbox. All the system files are still readily accessible from chrome, because if they blocked out the system files chrome wouldn't even be able to run. I'd say a good 80% of the viruses out there initially target some sort of system file.... hence rendering chromes "sandbox" useless.

It's definitely not a mini-OS though...

I can see why he said that, what with it having very linux-like features. Since it doesn't crash with one tab having a problem, and linux is one of VERY few things that also doesn't totally shut down from one thing crashing, it has that similarity. That isn't an OS feature though, it's a feature that most things should have. It's just the result of multi-threading things. Games should have that too, like, if the sound crashes it shouldn't crash the game.

So I had a dream last night that I was sitting in on a student council meeting in the lounge. The dean, who was some short balding greasy man in a sweat stained t-shirt, explained that the meeting was going to start the meeting soon, which meant that certain people had to leave, at which point he looked at Scott who was packing his stuff up anyway. He said he was going but then the dean called out two body guards and told them to defenestrate him, but they weren't successful and what followed were a few judo tosses and a kick in the junk or two.

The meeting was about the spending of a budget surplus. One student suggested using it on something he called "lycos heating" to which I said "what?" This was apparently the wrong thing to say because no one had any desire to explain it to me, and for about fifteen minutes the discussion diverted to how I was an asshole for even asking even though it probably would have taken them a sentence or two to summarize what they were getting at. After a while, it got to the third or fourth girl who was basically trying to get up in my grill because I was asking a simple question, so I spun my chair over to her and got to about two inches away from her face and said something along the lines of "hey darlin', why don't we just cut all this bullshit and you just tell me what it is?" to which she smiled coyly and then told me I didn't deserve to be told.

I woke up before I could flip shit.

Give me a minute, I'll think of something. Mass Effect 2 deviates slightly from this in that it's not specifically about improving yourself and your team; it's actually about creating it. And... (time passes)

Jade Empire: it's more a revenge-type story, which ends with you freeing the Empire from an evil emperor's grip. Or not, depending on player choice. The bad thing has already happened. I appreciate these are not great examples... I'll keep trying.

Alpha Protocol's probably my best offer.

Connection issues will either be: your firewall, not allowing the game in/out. This probably isn't your problem on Windows 7. It could be because the person's internet you're playing on is quite slow, in which case, there's not a huge amount you can do. It could be that their firewall is blocking Alien Swurm (yes Swurm) so you can ask them to fix that... Dunno what else. Some of my friends and I might rent a server, it's so much better when you don't have a half-second lag going down :p

Tell you what, if you can find my Steam name on this site, and can put up with HORRIFIC connections because you're a few thousand miles away, we'll play with you. Probably not worth it for you, eh? :p

2. I go to the directory (c:/windows/system32/winlogon/winlogon.exe) and scan the program there for viruses, stupid virus program doesn't get it.
3. I try ending the processes then quickly delete the program, but i get the stupid critical system process error

/ Woo a new question on post #10 \

Okay, I'm new to these forums but decided to finally register to ask this question (I've lurked the forum as a guest for quite some time).

I've got a room with a lightswitch, and it works fine. I have the lightswitch as a func_button with the target as my lights in the room, and they turn off and on fine.

The thing is, when the lights are 'off' I'd like it not to be pitch black, but instead, I'd like my dark blue lights to turn on. I have dark blue lights named lights2 all right next to the regular lights. I'd like these to come on when the regular lights go off, and vice versa. I can do this with 2 seperate lightswitches, but this will allow you to turn them both on at the same time and I do not want that.

Is there a way to do what I'm wanting with just one lightswitch? If somebody could point me in the right direction I'd be really greatful, thank you.
-NsN


Edit:
Wow, I spent a long time thinking about this earlier this morning, and can't believe I missed something so obvious! And it WOULD come to me only 5 minutes after I make the post. Unlucky, and sorry for bothering you all.

If you went to that site and read a thing or two...

Exceeded MAX_PATCHES

When HLRAD runs, it takes all the visible faces in the game, and divides them into sections called patches. These patches are the textures used as the lightmaps for the world. There is a hard limit of 65535 patches that HLRAD can deal with. By default, a 64x64 game unit chunk of space is the size of one patch. If the texture scaling (not texture size) is larger or smaller, it will directly affect the lightmap size as well. This means a texture with scale of 2, will have at best 1/4th as many patches as a texture with a scale of 1.

Putting a 'box' around the level to protect from leaks is the most commmon cause of this error, beyond excessively large maps. The box causes vis to keep the faces on the outside which would normally be thrown away. These faces are then required to have lightmaps. Worst case, is that putting a box around the level will usually cause an extra 40-80% more lightmaps to be created than necessary.

Barring having a box, the other cause is large maps. The fixes are varied but can only help so far. Using -chop values larger than the default 64 for HLRAD will cause the lightmaps to be larger. However, for values larger than around 96 the lightmaps start looking bad, and will more prominently show the 'staircase' effect on shadows. Using a larger scale on large textures (dirt, rock walls, concrete) will help those large surfaces consume fewer lightmaps.

User
Just checked for problems,nothing found. Another weird thing is that none of the textures in my map appear stretched.

So I've spent the last two or three hours trying to make a custom spray logo, and get it to work inside cs. I've looked at different trucks here, and I've looked at many different tutorials on google.

The thing is, they all say to turn the spray logo into a .wad file, and put it inside the cstrike directory and REPLACE the one thats already there. I didn't see any there by the name of tempdecal.wad or pldecal.wad... but I went ahead and created one for each... didn't work.
Then a lot of places were saying to delete a file called custom.hpk ... I cannot find this file. I've made sure that all my hidden files and folders are unhidden, that didn't help. Then I figured maybe cs can't create the file because the cstrike folder is read-only, so I changed that and it didn't create anything. I have a feeling that not deleting this file is the cause of the logo not appearing in-game, but I can't find it to delete it

So last night I was playing Supreme Commander 2 (I managed to get it for £13, how awesome is that!) and at a certain stage my laptop must have overheated or something because it turned itself off. Completely. I was somewhat disappointed and restarted, becoming somewhat surprised when it transpired that my keyboard no longer worked. So, hard restart again, still nothing, loads Ubuntu by default. I've forgotten all my Linux know-how so I restart this time with a flatmate's keyboard plugged in. Windows doesn't get anything from it either but tells me that the driver thinks it is working fine - clearly not the case. This morning I was going to an interview; I had one last check - nothing. Just coming in a few minutes ago I tried turning it on without turning on the power supply, i.e. run the thing on battery. And it works. I don't know why. I don't know why it stopped working.

Conclusion: I find that sometimes I hate computers.

Eh... Mega Man 8 has Clown Man, and that alone makes it worth not playing, but I also found the super ball mechanic and all the stupid shit you had to do with it to be sort of annoying. That game was probably the one I enjoyed the least. I remember 7 being pretty horrible too.

I think that after 3, the most fun game was probably 6 for all the wacky physics of the rush suits and the things you could do with them. It gave the game a certain amount of versatility. I have mixed feelings on 5 because the super arrow is a fun gimmick, but Rush Coil is horrible and half the weapons are useless. Something about 4 never quite sits right with me even though I enjoy parts of it and kind of liked both the Balloon and the Wire along with most of the weapons. Funny thing though, I found out yesterday that the guy that did the music for 3 also did the music for 4, which was not what I expected. I would have thought 2 and 3 were the same and 4, 5, and 6 were all one guy, but no.

Anyway, I think what makes 2 the most difficult in the series is probably the level design one you get to the Wily stages. The dagron fight wouldn't be awful if not for the position you were in, and similarly, the first security system and the Gutsdozer are no big thing so long as you can get to them (the second security system, admittedly, takes some ingenuity). And the lead up to Wily, where you take damage from the drops without any way of recovering and by the way he's only weak to one weapon? Totally unfair.

My advice then is to read the documentation on the thread type you're using. It seems to me that the method does most of the work for you (not trying to suggest you're in some way lacking), so when you start it up it does its thing then goes, and you're not being given much choice over how to do it. So, see if the docs tell you how to stop that/do it properly.

Is there a way I can have a thread not terminate?

I want the audio player of WhiteBird to have its own thread, so it can run (and crash) independently of WhiteBird. So I create a new thread for it, simple. The problem is that once the thread does one thing it terminates. I need the thread to say play music, then wait around for something to do (like the thread pool). I don't want to use the thread pool simply because it is performing other tasks (navigating web pages, i/o, etc.).

First off I know there are companies/places that will "host servers (or desktop PCs as servers)." Anybody know of any?

Here is what I mean: http://clan-si.com/servers.php

I figured it would be easier to send to off to a company that "hosts" them instead of working with my NAT'd router (though it would be cheaper to get better internet service and a new router I suppose).


Anyways the main thing I want to know is:

How do I setup a server?

The farthest I could get on my own is inserting the Ubuntu Server Edition 9.10 dvd, and clicking install lamp.
Where do I go from there?

Put it before you ever intend to use them. It's like... the preprocessor basically substitutes whatever happens after

Screw it, example time:

#define 1 2

Means that wherever the preprocessor sees '1' in the source it replaces it with '2'. So, #defines should go at the top of the source. The #ifdef and #ifndef are like small if-else constructs but again are only followed by the preprocessor. It's like asking "what platform am I on?" One final thing to note is that #include is just the same - it is only used by the preprocessor. All it does is dump the entire contents of the header file you specify at the top of your file (at least it does in C, but what does #include <cstdlib> mean in that sense? Is it still a header? Jer, help me!)

Ok, so it'll work if I put it up where I put my "#include"s.
Also, another question... in the part I quoted from superjer, its cin.ignore(1000) , whats the 1000 do? I've just been doing cin.ignore() and it works fine.

It works with Xbox gamepads. Thing is it detects even the smallest displacement so you can go scooting off to either side when really you want to be standing still (so, either have analogue movement or ignore the first little bit of signal).

You guuuyyyyyss, I had a dream again!

This one is kind of topical because it involved aaronjer. We were playing a RTS, except the theme was that there were demons and evil forces and whatnot. I can't really explain what was going on in it because there's no apt parallel; it wasn't really like Diablo, or Quake, or anything, it was just kind of its own thing.

Anyway, so as usual when I'm playing a video game in a dream I was going from being outside of it looking at the screen to being inside of it running around. I think that it had the ability to switch between third person controlling armies and first person hero character?

Right, so there was this "capture the flag" type mechanism going on where one of the opposing armies (atojamz and I were on the same team) sent in a squadron to claim the framework of one our outposts. I don't exactly know how analogize this particular army, but they were were flat, glowing, triangular bugs about the size of a fist with one eye on their back and their method of capturing points was to swarm on top of them until they covered the structure with this piecemeal, glowing exoskeleton. At this point, the official term for this captured structure was "your parent's house". It wasn't directed to any specific person, just, for whatever reason, whenever those things captured anything, it became "your parent's house".

Anyway, so I was running down the side streets (it was an old style brick city, but pitch black out) and aaronjer was running along the top of the walls. I was basically providing cover so that he could get to a power-up which was some kind of anti-ectoplasmic sword that we had been storing next to the base and they had failed to account for. So just as the structure was starting to revert to the other side, aaronjer grabbed the sword and made a big old swing that split the exoskeleton in two and then I woke up.

I'm gonna go ahead and assume your using a pirated version of cs.
If thats the case, the map probably compiled jsut fine, and is perfectly playable, but cs for whatever reason won't run it right from the whole batch-file-process... I ran into the same shit back when I was mapping.

Basically what I did though is set up my own server and go about testing the maps that way. It gets a bit tedious sometimes, but thats the only thing I could think of to do.

Other than that, maybe try getting a different version of cs.

Or if your copy isn't pirated, then everything I just said is most-likely completely irrelevant, and won't help at all

I was thinking about the "first unread post" thing discussed earlier in another truck. You could reduce the load on your poor server by only implementing it for certain users - e.g. having a certain post threshold after being active for a certain amount of time, say 150 posts after a month. This would allow you to move users that only post a couple of times in the hammer truck into an "inactive" state and then possibly move them on from there, i.e. deletion, if you feel it's necessary.

Also it means that people who are now "regular" users have the functionality and would now be around often enough that the lists of "last seen" wouldn't be too large. Pathologic cases: Cornjer and jigsaw. Various admins. Solution: whenever the list of posts gets "too big", say, 15 trucks per user, either stop adding new ones or fall back to the previous where the truck just goes red. Or if someone doesn't log in for too long wipe the list. Tsimple!

Fair enough. The last time I played it it gave me all the different pieces. There is a way to do that; it just involves screwing your game completely. As in, if you have a "trench" that is 4 deep, waiting for a line piece, it will give you one of those line pieces as soon as you close over the top. That sort of thing :)

Hmmm, I wonder... it says "Dependant Assembly" in that log of yours. I wonder if its because of a difference in OS's. Are you running the 32bit version of win7? Cuz I'm running the 64bit.

Exactly - its design choices really impact performance. Both Java and JS are object-oriented languages with verbose syntax though! They are slightly similar (obviously excluding the whole compilation thing). I'm at a position where I'm kind of happy with Java. I've been doing proper Javastuff for well over a year now and I'm at the stage where, although we have our differences, some things still piss me off immensely and sometimes it makes me sad, I can live with it. I accept it for what it is and use it accordingly :)

I've never worked with java. Javascript is actually pretty easy to work with, in my opinion anyway.
Really my point was though, is they are two completely different languages, so they shouldn't be grouped together.
As far as javascript though, I think in most cases php should take its place. Php is just so much more superior.
Idk why, but the first thing I think of when I think of Java is Runescape, and I hate runescape, so I feel biased against it for that

I tried to watch the show for a few months back in junior high when it first came out but it did not click with me. It just kept annoying me that it was so pointlessly different from the games. It was visually similar, and other than that... pretty much it's own thing.

I could never figure out why a pikachu was considered the most powerful pokemon EVAR! It annoyed me to no end. I was all like, damn, even evolved into a raichu it is a below average Pokemon. Why wasn't it just a Red/Blue starter? Those are actually good. And if it needed to be a cute electric pokemon why wasn't it just a Jolteon? Jolteons are still even in Gen 4 the best electric sweeper... and literally better than a raichu (and especially a pikachu) in every way. In fact, Jolteon is easily one of the most overpowered Pokemon in the games, it eats legendaries for breakfast and then craps out actual thunder (which kills another legendary). It just deeply annoyed me that the people making the show obviously knew jack shit about the games.

Then the card game... I never even looked at it. I was just all, "Why- in the FUCK, would I play a card game when there is already a video game of the same thing." I'd already dealt with one pale imitation via the show, and I wasn't going to get suckered into a second one.

I never got into anything Pokemon other than the main series of games, so I can only assume that card is a good one. When I play the old Pokemon games I just cry a little, because I remembered them being good, but they're totally unplayable compared to the new ones.

Trading and battling with other people was a mess before the DS, and before Gen 3 the games had no difficult battles against NPCs at all... they're so... boring. Even the battle against Red in GSC was pretty 'meh' compared to the Battle Tower/Frontier/Whatever Post Elite Four Thing stuff. In Gen 1 and 2 it was like you have all these Pokemons... and nothing to DO with them. There's no reason to try to plan a really competitive team.

Well one of the main reasons I still like playing the first games is 'cause they make me feel all nostalgia'y. Also one time I went and bought a pack of cards, and opened it up and just smelled it

I went from XP to 7 though so I don't know much about Vista other than that.

I think this is what you need http://www.online-utility.org/image_converter.jsp

Yes, replying to a 3-year-old post was definitely necessary.


I was really bored so...plus you never know maybe someone will find it useful.

The most important thing is that you make motor noises and move your hands around violently or else it won't move. They're dumb things, inherently, so you have to model it for them so that they will understand what they're supposed to be doing.

If you're bored why don't you try looking for secret trucks.

Sometimes when compiling a map the cpu usage goes 100% and the compiling stops on a thing called LeafThread.

One thing I HATE about windows 7 is its way too secure. It locks me out of doing so much stuff, its stupid >.>
For example, I can't copy and paste any programs into my program files folder... so if theres a program that I have that doesn't come with an installer, I have to either run it from my documents, or create my own installer >.>

Also, I need someone that is good with flash to make the cut scenes. Or is there another program that will do the same thing.

Why not get Ubuntu? Having used a few, it's one of the better. I've got a 9.04 partition on my laptop, I downgraded to fuck around with OpenCL, but will probably got for a 10.04 install at some point.



I jus' don't like the set up.

One good thing about Linux is that any 'admin' actions they prompt you for the password. So even if you leave your computer on and someone gets on it they can't 'really' do anything. Also, there is not really an 'admin' account, its like an invisible-hard-to-use-admin-account.

Well, prepare to be informed:
So long as the mail you send this person is not for commercial gain, e.g. penis extenders, that sort of thing, then it's perfectly legal. However, your ISP can and does monitor your usage and the mail you send in order to comply with this legislation. They might not like you sending lots of spam e-mail and if they've written that into the contract you signed when joining their service they might decide to cut you off, but that's unlikely.
User
Yep I'm sure. As long as its not going to interupt anybody's business or anything like that its fine. Think of it this way, if you were to manually send out like 400 emails to someone, would that be against the law? No way... so using a spammer is doing the exact same thing, just faster.

Also you can spam people's phones with text messages and get away with that too ;)

If you want you map to have character, normal stairs just don't cut it, so why not build a winding spiral staircase for a change?

Sounds difficult but it is quite easy if you know how.

First you need the place where you want your staircase to be. Winding staircases don't just stand somewhere in the middle of a map, so try to find corner or a shaft or something like that.

When you have found your location you'll need to create an arch-brush (in the top-view) by selecting the block-tool and then switching to the arch-tool:


New objects arch
Your brush should have dimensions of about 128 x 128 x 12 units (Width x Depth x Height). So your character can walk over them without any problems.

If you look at the Dimensions tutorial, you will see that you can not walk over steps greater than 16 units high. That is why I have chosen 12 units.

After pressing enter this window should appear:


Arch Properties
Apply these settings:
Number of sides - stands for your amount of stairs
Wall width - stands for the width of your stairs (surprise :-)
Add height - you can shortcut the scaling/moving of the single stairs: Just add height of 12 (height of the stairs) and your staircase will be complete, but the way described below is much better to get a basic understanding of how it works.
(Note: the more stairs you want, the more narrow they get and the more overall height you can achieve)

After creating the arch you will have to ungroup it (split all the stairs from one another) by selecting the brush and pressing CTRL+U. It should look like this:


Arched Brush
Choose your starting brush, then Select the brush next to it by clicking on it. Move this brush so that the bottom of it is inline with the top of your starting brush. Then select the next brush and do the same, keep going till you run out of brushes.

It should now look like this:


Spiral Brush
In my example the staircase has 12 stairs, each with a height of 12 units and a overall height of 144 units (Formula: amount of stairs x height of the stairs = overall height).

That's about all you need to do for winding stairs, but it is a good idea to enclose the staircase to avoid leaks, and make it look better. To do this you'll have to place a wall around the stairs.

Just create another arch-brush as described above but scale it a little bit bigger: If you want to have a wall width of 8 for example, you'll have to add 16 (2 x 8 on the width and 16 on the depth which makes a brush of 144 x 144 units.

In the appearing arch-properties window just apply this:


Arch Properties
Now you'll have to increase this new arch in height (should now look like this):


Arch Wall

And don`t forget the doors :-)

The only thing left to do is place the stair textures:

Browse for some nice texture and apply it to the stairs. When adjusting the textures try this:

Just divide the whole degree of the staircase (360

When i am talking about the sky i don't mean "How do i make sky in a map" because i already know that.

I mean that i once didn't have a map from a server and after the map-download(Mapname.bsp) ,four .tga files started downloading.It was the sky of the map so it automatically went in the Env folder with the other .tga files (Sky files or however you wanna call it).

By the way there's not such thing "Func_push".I tried func_pushable but nothing happened.I once thought "Maybe it's trigger gravity" but this didn't work as well as i remember

It it is more than likely a virus. If you don't take care of this now, then more than likely you will be denied access to explorer. Then it is exponentially harder to fix the problem -not impossible though (you'll have to learn about the dos prompt). I had a virus that did the same thing, and also denied me access to explorer.

sprinkles said:
No, because for some reason I was denied permission to explorer, and various installed anti-virus/malware software, and on top of that, it wouldn't let me download any new anti virus software. That's what actually led to explorer being disallowed I tried to download threatfire and it said that it was already install [but was not] and then I tried to download some other anti virus and it got half way through and I got the classic msg saying explorer must close if you were working on anything it may be lost....
restarted and tried to manually start explorer and it wouldn't.
think of a computer as a cup, and the internet as a straw (you know those bendy straws) and counter strike is the bend. all people will go on a server if there are no exceptions(eg. password protected, bad server conection, lota lag ect...) really what you explained...there is no such thing sorrey for your inconvenience

1. Is it possible to copy a brush from one map to another?
Eg. I want to copy a vehicle from a.map to b.rmf.

2. Is it possible to convert .map to .rmf?

3. Is it possible to create a whirlwind?
Maybe using func_push?

4. How do you make the flashbang effect?
Some maps have flashbangs popping out of nowhere at a certain point and blinding you, like one of the NBnoobgames.

1) Yes, you can make it a prefab. Select the whole thing, then go to Tools->Create Prefab.

2) You can load the .map into hammer and then save it as .rmf.

3) Depends on what kind of whirlwind you want. You could make a simple one that raises you and spins you in a "circle" using func_push, yes.

4) My guess is it is done with sprites. Not sure about this one though.

I had a kinda weird dream last night.
So, in my dream I was going to college, but for some reason the college didn't want me on their property, so they sent me back to my old highschool to do my work there. I hated the principle at the highschool when I went there. In my dream, that principle had been fired, but they kept him there as the vice-principle, and they made his son the new principle.
So I show up for my first day there, and I brought everything I use for my classes: books, notebooks, sketchpad, and laptop. I guess my backpack was unzipped a little, and the principle looked inside my bag to see what was in there. Then he yelled at me "Is that a semi-functional laptop?!", and I was like "Ummm, no. It works just fine.", and he flips out and is like "GIVE ME THAT RIGHT NOW! YOU SHOULD KNOW THAT YOUR NOT ALLOWED TO HAVE THAT HERE!" and I was like "But I need it to do my work." and then he flips out and tries to take it from my backpack. I grabbed his arm so he couldn't take it, and that just made him even more pisssed off. This whole time he is yelling at me about how I'm not allowed to have it and that I need to give it to him. Eventually I figured out that he thought I was a student at the school, and I tried to explain to him that my college sent me there to do my work.
In the end I really have no idea what ended up happening, but it pissed me off so much that I woke up with a bloody nose

Also one thing I remember is, I looked out the window of the highschool, and I could see the elementary school across the street and someone had put some graffiti on it that read "Arrow power" with a big arrow underneath it. I have no idea what this means, but I remember that part pretty vividly for some reason.

amxx code
#include <amxmisc> #include <amxmodx> public plugin_init(){ set_task("givething",<loop forever thing>) } public givething(id){ if(cs_get_user_team(id)==CS_TEAM_CT){ give_item("item_defusekit") } }



.. some thing like that

I made a 3 storey elevator. Each floor has a gobutton (gb) to go to the one other floor, a gobutton to go to the other other floor and a call button (cb) to call the elevator to that floor.
All the buttons also listen to a multisource and an env_global to tell them when to function. Whenever the elevator (e) is at a floor, this floor's callbutton will be inactive (i) and its gobuttons will be active (a). At the same time the other floors's callbuttons will be active and their gobuttons will be inactive. Here's a scheme to clarify the situation:

3F_________gb a
3F___cb i
3F_________gb a
======== e_____(elevator is here, callbutton is inactive, gobuttons are active)2F_________gb i
2F___cb a
2F_________gb i
========_______(callbutton is active, gobuttons are inactive)
1F_________gb i
1F___cb a
1F_________gb i
========_______(callbutton is active, gobuttons are inactive)

The active callbuttons are actually copies of the gobuttons from the floor where the elevator is at. This requires the callbutton to switch targets. I used trigger_changetarget entities to do this.

The gobuttons work perfectly which raises the question why the callbuttons work only one time and any time after the first time I press one of them they don't do anything. Help would be really appreciated (as the callbuttons are the only thing left to fix my rmf).

I'm not sure what you mean cloud...but, I will try to answer your question.

Every program has the same thing in common, it starts the the function (or it could be a sub routine) Main

C# code
static void Main() { Application.EnableVisualStyles(); Application.SetCompatibleTextRenderingDefault(false); Application.Run(new Form1()); }


The
code
static void Main()
is the entry point into the program.
The
code
Application.Run(new Form1());
is what execute the code. Form1 is my class. the
code
Application.Run
tells it to create a new instance of Form1 (hence the 'new' keyword).
And, that is the basics.

Yeah I don't get it either...

Okay, this one is more than a bit weird. I was in a prison. This prison isn't like Alcatraz or Gitmo, or even your everyday county prison. It was a prison for monsters, aliens, and the like (ironically it didn't harbor any monsters or aliens). It also wasn't a state-of-the-art prison either. The prison was more like a dungeon. The classic concrete block walls, wet, dimly lit, etc. But, at the same, it wasn't run-down either. It was robustly constructed, with a lack of attention to aesthetics and comfort.
Something had jus' happened, maybe an inmate got out, somebody got hurt; I am not sure, but it was big deal. Somehow I had something to do with it, I think. So they decided to rearrange inmates to different cell blocks. It was not the classic handcuff you, and escort you to a different location. They (I don't know who they were, besides guards) got all the people together and moved them with guards in front and back. These guards, so I got the feeling, were brutal like orcs. It was 'you try anything' and you get killed; you fall behind you get prodded. I also got the feeling, that these guards liked to kill, and when given the chance, would enjoy it.
I get to my new cell, and the first thing I notice is that there are three leds on the door. One that said 'locked,' the other said something like 'armed,' and the last one said 'trap;' all three were lit up. I wondered at the trapt led. Then I noticed a rug with instructions on it for 'trapt.' I don't remember what it said, but on investigation of the rug I stepped on it and my foot went down. I moved the rug and noticed a pit. The pit was like the classic 'black hole.' It had spinning sharp things that were suppposed to cut you up if you fell down. However, they were poorly constructed; like they had no thought or ingenuity behind them. I tossed a short rope down there [hell if I know where I got a rope]. It simply went down, without much resistance from the spinning sharp things. Then I threw the rug down there, same result. Like I said, it was poorly constructed one-third of the way down (before the spinning sharp things) one wall ended. I figured if I could get down there I could escape. That was because it wasn't jus' a pit, it lead to a sewer or something. So I made a rope out of my bed sheets (ironically I didn't have a bed). I had my mag light on me, and I was very indecisive, because if the light died when I was down there I would be lost like hell. So I weaseled my way half way down with the rope. I remember the warden or someone calling me or something.
Now the warden was a women, a woman that hated me. I don't know why she hated me (maybe I made her life hell). I know that she would love to kill me, or at least watch me die. But, this was not an option, because of laws and politics.

And that is all I remember.

So, this dream I had lastnight was kinda nonsense, but it was really intense and I hardly ever remember my dreams, but I remembered this one so I decided to put it here...
Ok, so I went to my dad's house for the weekend, and I went downstairs in his house and there were a couple guys down ther doing some sort of construction work (I have no idea why), and there was this lady who seemed to be their boss. When I got downstairs, the lady yelled at me and said, either I need to start working, or go upstairs and make lunch for everybody. So I chose to make lunch. When I got upstairs, that lady was already up there, and she had already made pizza for everyone, I just had to slice it up and put it on plates. So my dad comes in out of nowhere and throws my one of the plates of pizza on the ground and yells at me saying something like "Why aren't you getting lunch for everyone?", and I was like "I was getting plates ready for everyone so I could bring it downstairs." and then I got really mad and was like "You know what dad, I really think your starting to lose your mind, you need to get some help." and that resulted in this big arguement between me and him.
The next thing I can remember is we got in my dad's truck (its a huge chevy that he turned into a tow truck, weighs about 4tons), and we were on our way out to town to get groceries. We were going down this road that started to turn, and my dad just kept going straight, so I started yelling at him to get his attention. But when I looked over at him his eyes were rolled back and he was unconsious. So I grabbed the wheel, but I couldn't get much control of the truck and we ended up annhilating this big pole, and we ended up in someone else yard.
So we're sitting in this yard, and once we get to a stop my dad wakes up and starts flipping out, and he's like "I gotta hide this weed!", and he pulls out this huge bag of weed, like a ziplock bag completely full. So in this persons yard there was a house, and then like a trailer-house in the back that was all beat down. So my dad throws the bag threw the window. Then this kid, probably like 15-16 is standing there, and he starts talking about how when we leave he's gonna go get the bag of weed.
Then for some reason, me and my brother get in the truck (he was there with me the whole time btw), but my dad doesn't get in. So I start driving the truck and I notice two weird thing while I'm driving; I got to like 3rd gear and I was only going about 15mph, and the truck was completely silent (normally its pretty loud). So I get about a quarter mile down the road and decide to give up whatever I was trying to do, and I turned around and went back.
I grabbed the bag of weed, and then my dad started driving and the truck drove fine, and we went back home. Then my dad started going like completely insane, and I was like "dad, DAD....DAD! Here..." and I gave him the bag of weed.
Then I woke up.

Well you can't. I can't get the history to work.

It saves to history.txt when you exit, but when I try to read the file it erases it.

I mean the concept is simple:
You save all the visited sites to a log
you open the log
you populate the combo box with each line of the log

I think what I might do is just make a new form and make it look like a message box, then have it open that form and close the one with the loading bar.

But I still wonder why it keeps opening hundreds of msgbox's... I think whats happening is its not getting past the msgbox part to get to where I change the boolean to false.

if the pic doesnt work, its probably cause its to big, it has to be 50x50


sprinkles, i have actually updated it a little, so it draws a line behind it when it moves and has a new functions.. exit!, pen up and pen down..

i do also assume u have the autoit interpreter/compiler/autoit installed anyway
after the includes, add the line
code
$pen = false


then after that
code
func pen() if $console = false Then if $pen = false Then ToolTip("Pen down!") sleep(500) tooltip("") $pen = true Else tooltip("Pen up!") sleep(500) ToolTip("") $pen = False EndIf EndIf EndFunc HotKeySet("+!d","pen") Func drawpix($dc,$x,$y,$color) DllCall ("gdi32.dll", "long", "SetPixel", "long", $dc[0], "long", $x, "long", $y, "long", $color) EndFunc Func pict($x,$y) $dc= DllCall ("user32.dll", "int", "GetDC", "hwnd", "") drawpix($dc,$x+25,$y+25,0x000000FF) DllCall ("user32.dll", "int", "ReleaseDC", "hwnd", 0, "int", $dc[0]) EndFunc


Note that pressing alt+shift+d will toggle the pen thing

then look for
code
func ifunc($func)


add in it
code
if $func = "pen down" Then $pen = True _GUICtrlEdit_InsertText($conout,@crlf & "Pen down!") EndIf if $func = "pen up" Then $pen = false _GUICtrlEdit_InsertText($conout,@crlf & "Pen up!") EndIf if $func = "exit" Then Exit EndIf


then move all the way down to the while 1 loop
add at the start
code
if $pen = true Then pict($picpos[0],$picpos[1]) EndIf


that is all to have a turtle graphics clone

i was just askin basically the same thing. If you have selected multiple brushes and binded them to an entity (ctrl + T) but you want to edit a part of one of the brushes then clic a part of your breakable boxthing and then go: tools, move to world (ctrl + W)it should remove the breakable entity from them and they should be ungrouped also
YES but the fucking "user friendless" shit doesn't tell me if its a .ext or aney thing i have to go to propertys and find it my self

Q: How do I make my own textures?

You'll need to download and install program called Wally.

1. Make a .bmp of what you want you texture to be.
(The texture size needs to be multiplications of 16. Examples: 16x16 pixels, 32x16 pixels, 96x96 pixels, 80x64 pixels... and so on...)

2. Open Wally and go to File->New.

3. A window titled 'Create New Texture' will open. You can set only one thing in that window- 'Type'. Set the 'Type' to Half-Life Package [wad3] (.wad)

4. Drag and drop the .bmp you made on to your New Texture in wally. You can add as many textures as you want to your .wad file.

5. Save your file in you Counter-Strike directory.

6. Load the texture in Hammer. (Tools-> Options-> Textures-> ADD WAD.)



I can't get this to work.

Hey i just wanna ask something that pissed me off today while making a map.I made breakable walls but i thought it would take less time by selecting the walls i want with Control + Click.Then i went at properties and i did the thing bla bla bla,so after that i wanted to change something and here's the prob.The walls got automatically "grouped".I mean i click on one and it automatically selects all the walls i made breakable.I press Ungroup and still nothing,it just stays like this .Maybe a little help? (By the way i know that i can delete all of the walls and make new but i want another solution for this.A "Faster" ;))

Ok, so I was shopping around today and my mom finds this old trunk, and says "Hey do you think this would be nice for Rayah's toys?" (Rayah being my brothers daughter) I glance at it and say yes. Later, when I have to lug the heavy ass thing to the counter, I notice there is writing on the top "US" a symbol "electrical lighting equipment set." So I get to thinking its like an old military trunk, and I am still thinking that. Apparently my mom got tired of me talking about it or what not, and decided to give it to me; thankfully, because she wanted to paint over it, because it is not in the best condition. What do you think (I will upload better pics in the morning)?

Probably not. And when I say high-security, I mean, banking programs, large programs, that sort of thing. Making a one-time md5 hash of a file to check you've downloaded the right one is not exactly what I meant. The algorithm is good enough that a small change to the file produces a different md5. In fact, probably any change is enough. If an attacker knew the md5 to create he could create a file with those characteristics but it would likely have many other noticeable differences to the original.

And, you could have jus' said encryption algorithm.
Also...
US-CERT of the U. S. Department of Homeland Security said MD5 "should be considered cryptographically broken and unsuitable for further use,"[7]

Why say the simple thing? I said md5 because it's well-known and while it is not useful for high-security applications it's probably sufficiently nontrivial to be of use to check that a downloaded file is the right one. Combine that with filesize, magic numbers... it's probably ok.

At the start of this dream I was still a young girl, I was back in the school again, and I had lost my ladder. I had also fallen unconscious due to some sort of "possession complications" during an assembly and was currently on the floor and drooling on another girl's bright red shoes. My left thigh was in a minor amount of pain, and I discovered it was because I was laying on a knife that I had concealed under my skirt. It was held in place by one of those girly lacey elastic bands, a garter, is it? I had this knife so that I might stab myself and transfer the injury to someone else. It was considerably more painful than simply stabbing them directly, but it left me mostly blameless.

My ladder had fallen down some stairs by accident, thus causing me to fall unconscious, and while I was asleep it had likely been taken to a storage room. If I was going to kill that bastard Falker... or Dulton, or whichever one was really him, I needed my body and the rest of my soul back! This meant that getting to my ladder and finding a way to destroy it was absolutely imperative. The girl whose shoes I was drooling on was looking worried and a little upset, so I got back into my seat. I wasn't sure how long I had been out, but Archmage Dulton, the principal of the school, and the person I strongly suspected of secretly being the angel Falker, was still droning on about something boring. Now, Dulton didn't look a thing like Falker... Dulton looked like a non-mustached Santa Claus and Falker looked like a male model... but I just KNEW.

I didn't want to raise a ruckus while Dulton was watching, as he might investigate and discover who I really was, so I was forced to put up with his incredibly disinteresting and melancholic speech about the sudden and infuriatingly time-consuming death of one of my fellow students. If I had known this would have taken so long I would have been more careful as to not actually kill her. I suppose it would be prudent to be thankful that nobody knew I had been involved. When Dulton was finished he declared that he had serious business to attend to. He opened a portal and before anyone could finish gasping he was gone.

I stood myself up, quite of of turn, as the assembly was nowhere near it's deserved end, and went straight for the nearest door. A teacher blocked my path. His face and attitude annoyed me and I had no time to convince him out of my way so I took the only rational course of action and stabbed myself in the kidney. I transfered the wound to him by touch, thereby eluding the baleful glare of the violence detectors, and was out the door before anyone saw what happened.

I had a faint cognition of the whereabouts of my ladder, but the maze-like construction of the bowels of the school perplexed me enough to keep me wandering for several minutes. I was feeling much stronger, so I knew I was getting closer. Only a few more turns and a door or two and I would be reunited with my beloved ladder! Unfortunately a pair of ne'er-do-well students blocked my path, and they appeared to be grossly overestimating how much of a threat I was to them. My body must have belonged to the kind of girl who would have immediately reported the whereabouts and actions of these delinquents, and I wasn't about to convince them otherwise. There were no violence detectors present in the basement, and these two boys were each twice my size. I muttered that if I had my ladder they'd both be dust by now and I brandished my knife. Or, at least, I tried to... but I had apparently lost it somewhere. If I could even make it to the end of the hallway I'd have enough strength to turn these two into hamburger. I'm not sure what their intentions were, but the skinnier one rushed me. With only a little luck I managed to trip him judo-style and he smashed his nose in on the dusty concrete. The heavier one got hold of my arm and painfully twisted behind my back, possibly dislocating something. With no effort at all, as he was already touching me, I transfered the wound to him. He let go and stepped back with surprise. The skinnier one had time to get up and rush at me again, this time I leapfrogged over him and he crashed head-first into a wall. I ran to the end of the hallway and turned to face them. They looked as though they no longer wanted anything to do with me, but I glared at them and turned them to dust for good measure.

I was now far removed from anyone suspicious or curious and had all the time in the world to find a way to annihilate my precious ladder. I tried tearing, bending and stomping it. I burned it, I froze it, I tried to disintegrate it... I even tried to eat it! Nothing I did put a scratch on my ladder. Apparently containing my soul augmented it, and the power I could muster even when I was so close wasn't enough to destroy it. Someone would have to be strong enough to kill me when I was at my best if they were going to bring down this mighty ladder. The only person I knew of who fit the bill was Dulton/Falker himself. It wouldn't be easy for me to convince him to help me kill him, but at least now I wasn't wandering around ladderless.

The room around me had caught fire while I was attempting to send my ladder to its maker. I made my way back upstairs without bothering to extinguish it. The assembly had ended and the halls were bloated with a flush of students. Emotions ran rampant through them, like some kind of sorrowful contagion. From this I learned that these students don't like it when you kill them. I found it difficult to navigate while I held my ladder. Progress to Dulton's office was slow and slippery with tears.

I was accosted by the girl with bright red shoes and my 'friend' Sully. They were concerned about my inexplicable actions and sleeping spells. They were also concerned about my recent ladder obsession. They were so concerned about my ladder obsession that they had completely forgotten my sudden ill manners, lack of interest in athletic events, and tendency to spend long hours staring at girls in the locker room. Excuses about burnt out lights and signs that needed changing no longer placated them. My ladderlust was apparent and cause for difficult questions. I considered killing everyone around me and making a bee-line for Dulton, but that would give away who I was too easily. Instead I told Red Shoes and Sully that the ladder was possessed with an evil spirit, and that I needed to take it to Dulton and have him exorcise it. Trusting and naive as they were they accepted my answer after probing the ladder momentarily and discovering powerful magics inside it.

Outside Dulton's office I told Red Shoes and Sully that I was feeling weak from carrying the evil ladder too long. I had them go into Dulton's office with the ladder while I stayed outside. Dulton would immediately know who I was if he saw me with the ladder... but I hoped he would believe I was merely hiding myself inside the ladder and destroy it, thinking it would kill me. Upon the destruction of the ladder I would gain a massive surge of energy, and I would be far stronger than I ever had been for a brief moment. Hopefully strong enough to turn Dulton/Falker into pudding in an instant, instead of having to risk losing in battle to him a second time. Things didn't go so easily. Dulton asked me to come into his office, and inside I found he was more concerned with my well-being than he was with the destruction of my ladder. As long as I did not touch the ladder in his presence it was unlikely he would recognize me, so I played along while he used restorative magics on me. It took a great deal of effort to pretend that his magic was helping, and not actually hurting me. Lucky for me Red Shoes and Sully were too nervous to say much, and didn't say anything about the obvious signs that I wasn't who I looked like.

Finally, Dulton summoned his magic sword, and with an incantation and a flourish he slashed the ladder in twain. A surge of light and a distortion in the air conspicuously blasted across the room and into my body. My ring burned hot and fused itself to my finger, and Dulton was wide-eyed with surprise. I tried to move, tried to reach out and kill that bastard... but alas, I was unable to move. The surge of power I had received was so strong that I could barely even move. I was in shock, but very aware of the danger I was in. Dulton, figuring out what had happened, transformed into his Angelic self and shouted "It's YOU! I should have known!". He advanced upon me wings spread wide and sword raised in the air, to strike me down a second and likely final time. As a last ditch effort, in the girliest, most nervous and terrified voice I could muster, I uttered a barely-audible call for help. Falker hesitated for a moment, obviously wondering if the girl I had possessed could still be saved, and if killing me would kill her. Unfortunately for him she was already quite dead, and I only needed that brief pause to get my act together. I lunged at him and wrapped myself around him. We were enveloped by a fantastic light and I could feel his body give way and turn to ashes as I brought my arms up against my chest.

The light faded and I found myself on the floor. I stood and saw Red Shoes and Sully looking at me with awe and disbelief. Red Shoes tried to say something but only emitted a short and stuttered "Uh". I looked at them calmly and said innocently, "Do you want to hang out after school?"

Then I woke up.

It was considerably more painful than simply stabbing them directly, but it left me mostly blameless.

My ladder had fallen down some stairs by accident, thus causing me to fall unconscious, and while I was asleep it had likely been taken to a storage room. If I was going to kill that bastard Falker... or Dulton, or whichever one was really him, I needed my body and the rest of my soul back! This meant that getting to my ladder and finding a way to destroy it was absolutely imperative. The girl whose shoes I was drooling on was looking worried and a little upset, so I got back into my seat. I wasn't sure how long I had been out, but Archmage Dulton, the principal of the school, and the person I strongly suspected of secretly being the angel Falker, was still droning on about something boring. Now, Dulton didn't look a thing like Falker... Dulton looked like a non-mustached Santa Claus and Falker looked like a male model... but I just KNEW.

I didn't want to raise a ruckus while Dulton was watching, as he might investigate and discover who I really was, so I was forced to put up with his incredibly disinteresting and melancholic speech about the sudden and infuriatingly time-consuming death of one of my fellow students. If I had known this would have taken so long I would have been more careful as to not actually kill her. I suppose it would be prudent to be thankful that nobody knew I had been involved. When Dulton was finished he declared that he had serious business to attend to. He opened a portal and before anyone could finish gasping he was gone.

I stood myself up, quite of of turn, as the assembly was nowhere near it's deserved end, and went straight for the nearest door. A teacher blocked my path. His face and attitude annoyed me and I had no time to convince him out of my way so I took the only rational course of action and stabbed myself in the kidney. I transfered the wound to him by touch, thereby eluding the baleful glare of the violence detectors, and was out the door before anyone saw what happened.

I had a faint cognition of the whereabouts of my ladder, but the maze-like construction of the bowels of the school perplexed me enough to keep me wandering for several minutes. I was feeling much stronger, so I knew I was getting closer. Only a few more turns and a door or two and I would be reunited with my beloved ladder! Unfortunately a pair of ne'er-do-well students blocked my path, and they appeared to be grossly overestimating how much of a threat I was to them. My body must have belonged to the kind of girl who would have immediately reported the whereabouts and actions of these delinquents, and I wasn't about to convince them otherwise. There were no violence detectors present in the basement, and these two boys were each twice my size. I muttered that if I had my ladder they'd both be dust by now and I brandished my knife. Or, at least, I tried to... but I had apparently lost it somewhere. If I could even make it to the end of the hallway I'd have enough strength to turn these two into hamburger. I'm not sure what their intentions were, but the skinnier one rushed me. With only a little luck I managed to trip him judo-style and he smashed his nose in on the dusty concrete. The heavier one got hold of my arm and painfully twisted behind my back, possibly dislocating something. With no effort at all, as he was already touching me, I transfered the wound to him. He let go and stepped back with surprise. The skinnier one had time to get up and rush at me again, this time I leapfrogged over him and he crashed head-first into a wall. I ran to the end of the hallway and turned to face them. They looked as though they no longer wanted anything to do with me, but I glared at them and turned them to dust for good measure.

I was now far removed from anyone suspicious or curious and had all the time in the world to find a way to annihilate my precious ladder. I tried tearing, bending and stomping it. I burned it, I froze it, I tried to disintegrate it... I even tried to eat it! Nothing I did put a scratch on my ladder. Apparently containing my soul augmented it, and the power I could muster even when I was so close wasn't enough to destroy it. Someone would have to be strong enough to kill me when I was at my best if they were going to bring down this mighty ladder. The only person I knew of who fit the bill was Dulton/Falker himself. It wouldn't be easy for me to convince him to help me kill him, but at least now I wasn't wandering around ladderless.

The room around me had caught fire while I was attempting to send my ladder to its maker. I made my way back upstairs without bothering to extinguish it. The assembly had ended and the halls were bloated with a flush of students. Emotions ran rampant through them, like some kind of sorrowful contagion. From this I learned that these students don't like it when you kill them. I found it difficult to navigate while I held my ladder. Progress to Dulton's office was slow and slippery with tears.

I was accosted by the girl with bright red shoes and my 'friend' Sully. They were concerned about my inexplicable actions and sleeping spells. They were also concerned about my recent ladder obsession. They were so concerned about my ladder obsession that they had completely forgotten my sudden ill manners, lack of interest in athletic events, and tendency to spend long hours staring at girls in the locker room. Excuses about burnt out lights and signs that needed changing no longer placated them. My ladderlust was apparent and cause for difficult questions. I considered killing everyone around me and making a bee-line for Dulton, but that would give away who I was too easily. Instead I told Red Shoes and Sully that the ladder was possessed with an evil spirit, and that I needed to take it to Dulton and have him exorcise it. Trusting and naive as they were they accepted my answer after probing the ladder momentarily and discovering powerful magics inside it.

Outside Dulton's office I told Red Shoes and Sully that I was feeling weak from carrying the evil ladder too long. I had them go into Dulton's office with the ladder while I stayed outside. Dulton would immediately know who I was if he saw me with the ladder... but I hoped he would believe I was merely hiding myself inside the ladder and destroy it, thinking it would kill me. Upon the destruction of the ladder I would gain a massive surge of energy, and I would be far stronger than I ever had been for a brief moment. Hopefully strong enough to turn Dulton/Falker into pudding in an instant, instead of having to risk losing in battle to him a second time. Things didn't go so easily. Dulton asked me to come into his office, and inside I found he was more concerned with my well-being than he was with the destruction of my ladder. As long as I did not touch the ladder in his presence it was unlikely he would recognize me, so I played along while he used restorative magics on me. It took a great deal of effort to pretend that his magic was helping, and not actually hurting me. Lucky for me Red Shoes and Sully were too nervous to say much, and didn't say anything about the obvious signs that I wasn't who I looked like.

Finally, Dulton summoned his magic sword, and with an incantation and a flourish he slashed the ladder in twain. A surge of light and a distortion in the air conspicuously blasted across the room and into my body. My ring burned hot and fused itself to my finger, and Dulton was wide-eyed with surprise. I tried to move, tried to reach out and kill that bastard... but alas, I was unable to move. The surge of power I had received was so strong that I could barely even move. I was in shock, but very aware of the danger I was in. Dulton, figuring out what had happened, transformed into his Angelic self and shouted "It's YOU! I should have known!". He advanced upon me wings spread wide and sword raised in the air, to strike me down a second and likely final time. As a last ditch effort, in the girliest, most nervous and terrified voice I could muster, I uttered a barely-audible call for help. Falker hesitated for a moment, obviously wondering if the girl I had possessed could still be saved, and if killing me would kill her. Unfortunately for him she was already quite dead, and I only needed that brief pause to get my act together. I lunged at him and wrapped myself around him. We were enveloped by a fantastic light and I could feel his body give way and turn to ashes as I brought my arms up against my chest.

The light faded and I found myself on the floor. I stood and saw Red Shoes and Sully looking at me with awe and disbelief. Red Shoes tried to say something but only emitted a short and stuttered "Uh". I looked at them calmly and said innocently, "Do you want to hang out after school?"

Then I woke up.

OK, your manhood is intact, you *could* have, but the point is you haven't.


I don't think there really is much of a point. Fucking isn't really a complicated or meaningful enough thing to change anyone in any big way. I'm exactly as much of a douche before and after I popped my peen-cherry. Silly sexual position jokes don't become any less funny afterwards.

From what I can see, the whole "you're a virgin/you aren't getting enough" thing that people do is just a superiority complex. Strangely enough, whether or not people are in fact "virgins/not getting enough" themselves doesn't seem to affect whether or not they have that particular superiority complex.
Actually you don't need to post.
It just randomly alternates between the two. Try refreshing this truck and see for yourself.

OK, now a bigger problem. First I made the website by trying out all paddings and other in pixels.

So, I have to make this website for school and I have something to ask.

I have a few images I'm going to turn into links to other websites. But I'd like a cloud (I have no idea what that thing is really called) to appear if a user puts the mouse over one of those images. So for example:


I'd like something like that cloud saying WWE wwe.com to appear when you hover over the picture, explaining which site the image-link will take you to (for example in the above case, I'd want the cloud to say superjer comics).
the thing is i was friends wit cornjer, but he moved we still chat and shit though

1.) Ok When you make a Trigger_hurt you go into the brushes properties and you click 'Name' and give it the name 'FRED' and then go to damage and set it to '65'

2.) then you click the entity button and find Multi_Manager and go to its properties and name it 'Game_player_spawn' and then click target and write 'fred.' and then at the top there are Tabs, click on the Flags and check Multithreaded.


Thats just a little more detailed then what SuperJer said but i also relized there is no 'Target' function on the Multi_manager...

Well im new here to help u but i think i know how maybe make a black room way on the out side of the map then on the ground of that make trigger_hurt and damage 65 after it touches it it teleports you to the spawn point u want!

So I wrote a phishing program, disguised as a Runescape bot (No, I don't play RS).
But basically I set it up and everything works great. They input their user/pass, then select what skill they want to train, and when they click start it sends em the user pass as well as displays them with a phony error box. The only thing, is when I get the email, everything is all jammed together, so I want to put the user/pass on separate lines.
Here's what I've got at the moment...
code
Imports System.Net.Mail Public Class Form1 Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim MyMailMessage As New MailMessage() MyMailMessage.From = New MailAddress("XXXXXXX@gmail.com") MyMailMessage.To.Add("XXXXXXX@gmail.com") MyMailMessage.Subject = ("free account") MyMailMessage.Body = TextBox1.Text + "-" + TextBox2.Text Dim SMTPServer As New SmtpClient("smtp.gmail.com") SMTPServer.Port = 587 SMTPServer.Credentials = New System.Net.NetworkCredential("XXXXXXXX@gmail.com", "XXXXXXXXX") SMTPServer.EnableSsl = True SMTPServer.Send(MyMailMessage) MsgBox("This version of RSProBot is not compatible with the current Runescape Client. Please contact our support team at: Support@ProBot.net", MsgBoxStyle.Information, "Compatability Error") End Sub Private Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click End End Sub End Class

Which yields "User-Pass" in the email.
I've tried doing something like
code
MyMailMessage.Body = TextBox1.Text + (SendKeys.Send("{~}")) + TextBox2.Text

But I keep getting errors.

Any ideas?

Q: How do I make my own textures?

You'll need to download and install program called Wally.

1. Make a .bmp of what you want you texture to be.
(The texture size needs to be multiplications of 16. Examples: 16x16 pixels, 32x16 pixels, 96x96 pixels, 80x64 pixels... and so on...)

2. Open Wally and go to File->New.

3. A window titled 'Create New Texture' will open. You can set only one thing in that window- 'Type'. Set the 'Type' to Half-Life Package [wad3] (.wad)

4. Drag and drop the .bmp you made on to your New Texture in wally. You can add as many textures as you want to your .wad file.

5. Save your file in you Counter-Strike directory.

6. Load the texture in Hammer. (Tools-> Options-> Textures-> ADD WAD.)

From the FAQ.

Nooooooooooo. I was factoring the quadratic equation not using the formula. You know that whole thing about x^2+13x+42=(x+6)(x+7)

The quadratic formula works fine [well actually i dont think i tried negs in it]

ironically i thought the formula would be hard and the equation easy
WRONG


ok jus checked the formula with a=1 b=-13 c=42 got 0.5 and -0.5
which means that there is something wrong mathmatically witch

I've heard the "guitars + drums" thing so much I can hardly make a distinction between different songs using them unless they do something extremely unusual.


Remember that? Did you all miss that I said that? There are some original and unique "guitar/drums" songs out there. The things posted here so far are definitely not.

I mean, take Korn for example. Although all of their songs sound extremely similar to each other, they don't sound anything like any other band, even though they are just using standard rock instruments. I don't particularly like the Korn song all that much, but I have to give it some points for originality.

Almost every composer or band has a great deal of songs that do not sound very distinct from each other. It's not just because "I don't like the genre", even my favorite genres have that problem. I like guitar and drums, it's just so popular and overused that it's very hard to get excited about it anymore.

Country music, on the other hand, is certainly something I dislike enough to the point where it all sounds the same to me just because I can't pay any attention to it.

And you're definitely right, DR, Queens of the Stone Age doesn't sound similar to any other band, and they even have a great deal of songs that sound significantly different from each other. They do, however, often suffer from the malady of "making it sound different but not good". The sort of, "Art for the sake of art" that The White Stripes does instead of "Art for the sake of enjoyment". I wish people would stop doing that. That doesn't mean I don't like some of both of their songs, though.
User
There is nothing bad about "guitars and drums" music, it's a genre after all. It doesn't sound more or less "all the same" as electro or hip hop or what. I noticed some time ago that if people don't like certain music, they say everything would sound alike when it certainly doesn't.

I didn't like the two Skillet songs though, haha. They just seem to lack some serious emotion. Only thing good is that they have two girls in their band, which is kind of unique.

I couldn't say I particularly disliked either song... but it was just more music for people who don't know there are instruments other than guitars and drums.

Ok I have a string that is a directory
C:\here\there\thing.ext
I need to get the file name [ie thing.ext] into a different string
the catch is the directory wont always be the same
How would I do that in vb?


Edit I got it will post solution in morning tired...
User
One thing I found out though was that, after dicking around for an hour now, that gimp lets you set the background colour to transparent. So all this time i spent trying to get the transparency key right..........Jesus...
User
One thing I'd recommend though, is instead of using a bitmap like that guide says, use a .png, the quality usually turns out a lot better.

Memory allocation failure
Description: The program failled to allocate a block of memory.
Howto Fix: Likely causes are (in order of likeliness) : the partition holding the swapfile is full; swapfile size is smaller than required; memory fragmentation; heap corruption

Is there anyway so that I could see the acutall tree on VHE?
Like i can when i use prefabs, and not models ?



If you have version 1.5

But you have to put the exact file path [in the options thing]
like C:\program files\this\here\now\
[you will have to get really close to see it
then you can make it how you want it

but to compile it you have to put it back to the
models/*.mdl
[where * is the name of your model.]
and it will stay in the position you put it in

1 more thing, I want my doors so when you touch them, it will hurt you but, I want it to move like my doors. So like, when I press a button to open a door, the hurt entity will move with the door. That's 2 entity in one brush. Right? How would I do that?

Basically, that's using 'func_door' and 'trigger_hurt' in 1 brush.

EDIT: Got it! A friend taught me.

@ApocalypticCannon Don't be stupid, if God did not exist then all the satanic shit on tv constantly being bombarded onto peoples minds would have no meaning, God does exist and these peoples plans is to make you think the opposite. You don't need to base everything on the bible bro just open your eyes for a minute and look around.

The complete truth is not in the Quran. The truth is thru the Most High's son Yashayah. The truth can be found in the Bible, KJV1611. The kingdom was promised to the seeds of Jacob not Ishmael. You should read that, especially if you are an Isrealite. Shalom.

Allah, his prophets, his books and his angels also not racist. and Allah has no sons or doughters... and also last prophet's (pbuh) message is universal not for a race. another thing i can not understand about ur way is that how do u believe a book which is changed by people after sending by the Allah?

I had a short and sweet one last night. It feels like the dream was missing a massive amount of backstory, but that sort of fit with the theme of rampant memory loss.

I'll describe the scenery first. I spent the entire time in what well could have been an extremely old volcano crater, or an ancient bomb crater that just happened to be right at the top of a hill. The crater was just large enough to fit two tennis courts, a miniature park, a hexagonal single floor house, a convenience store and a cul-de-sac in the middle. There was road going through a gap in one side of the crater that led down to a ruined modern city and an ocean. There was a great deal of plant-life growing happily inside the crater, but outside everything was mostly dead and barren.

Shadows often passed over the crater as enormous manta-ray like creatures lazily flew hundreds of feet above in packs of three or four. Occasionally an even larger but clearly artificial manta-ray like jet/flying battleship would fly over, irritatingly loudly I might add. Nothing up in the sky was ever of any consequence, it was just there.

At the start of the dream there were around thirty people living in the crater. People were dressed well and clean, not what one would expect in a post-apocalyptic world with ruined cities and barren lands. Everyone in the crater was suffering from some varying degree of memory loss. It was almost random what memories were missing, except that nobody could remember their name and on top of that most people had no form of identification. Except for that fact that GaryJer remembered my name and I remembered his, and except for Mr. Hill, who still had his driver's license, people had to make due with nicknames.

The only person who had been in the crater before I had shown up was a tall, fit and tan young woman in a black and red tennis outfit nicknamed "Rice". She wasn't Asian, it was just that when GaryJer, Mr. Hill, "Gold", "Glass" and I came to the crater (we were, according to my dream memory system [DMS], the first group to show up, and I don't know how Gold and Glass got their names) the only thing she had been eating from the confusingly oversized basement freezer in the convenience store was teriyaki rice bowls. She had eaten at least fifty of them. She's weird. Whatever.

Mr. Hill was a man in his thirties with a distinguished air about him, he wore a white suit that was probably more expensive than my truck, and except for GaryJer and I, was the only person who owned a firearm. In fact, nobody other than us three could remember what firearms were. However, we never used them for any purpose. Gold looked and dressed like a Supermodel, with long blond hair and perfect complexion. She also had the annoying habit of trying to have sex with me, no matter how thoroughly involved I already was with Rice. Glass was a stereotypical "Goth" teen girl with pale skin, black hair, way too much eyeliner and silly looking dark clothes. Glass slept on a couch in the hexagonal house. Always. I never saw her move more than breathing required. The only other person of note was a slightly overweight lesbian named "Torpedo".

Now, all this seems like a fantastic set up for adventure, conspiracy and mysteries... but hardly anything happened in the whole dream. And none of what happened would be out of the ordinary in a romantic comedy. Rice was by all means my girlfriend, I don't really know how we got started, but we spent all of our time together. I assume, anyway, what took place in the dream would only take an hour at most. Gold clearly wanted to steal my poontang, and Torpedo was secretly in love with Rice. And by secretly I mean that everyone but Rice knew about it. Torpedo also hated me very much. The whole dream seemed to be focused on our love triangle, although it's not really a triangle, I suppose. I guess it's a love... one of these --> /\/ With the points in the middle being Rice and I, and the points on the end being Torpedo and Gold.

Anyway, enough explanation! The first thing I did was step outside of the hexagonal house with a cup of coffee. Rice was a minute behind me in getting ready, we were going to play tennis. She was certainly better than me, but at least I could play... unlike real life. Before I could take a sip I was assaulted by the amorous advances of Gold. She sat at a two person round glass table just outside the house and pretended she didn't notice me. She was wearing a very short skirt and had her legs spread wide open and aimed directly at me. When I tried to walk past and ignore her, she stood up with designs of grooming some non-existent specks of dust off my person. Before she could get far and before I could "accidentally" spill my coffee on her, Rice showed up and slapped her good and hard. Rice said, "Bad girl, down!" in an unavoidably demeaning way, and Gold stormed off, presumably to act huffy and irritate somebody else. Glass continued to sleep inside.

A crowd had formed to watch Rice and I play our match. Everyone but Glass was there. I don't remember if it was three or five sets, but it doesn't really matter, because I never won a set anyway. There was obviously very little to do in the crater, as crowds don't usually form for a sporting event where the outcome is already known. Surprisingly, the match took quite a while. I managed to return the ball over the net on average a dozen times before she scored, and I managed to stay a single point behind for quite a while before she eventually won the set. I think she was going easy on me on purpose. After Rice won, the crowd formed around her to tell her how great she was. In the bustle Torpedo got awkwardly close to Rice, stomped on my foot, and poked me very hard in the stomach. Everyone acted like it was a championship match between pros because they had nothing better to do. Everyone except for Glass, of course, who was far too tired to join us.

Afterwards I joked with Mr. Hill about shooting Gold and Torpedo, and hiding their bodies in the freezer. He seemed to think it was a good idea, and I'm afraid I had to convince him I wasn't really serious. GaryJer finished our conversation by telling me he had spotted a convoy of military vehicles passing through the ruined city with his scoped rifle. I took note of this, although there was nothing to be done about it, and returned to the hexagonal house. Inside I sat with Rice on a couch, sweaty as we were... the only shower was in use. We looked over Glass, who was sleeping, of course, out a window that overlooked the ruined city and had a good view of the sky. We watched the flying mantas soar overhead for a while and discussed racquet technique and ways to get Gold together with Mr. Hill or GaryJer. Glass let out a barely audible moan and I woke up.

I also have a vague memory of talking with Mr. Hill and GaryJer about how we had concluded that the world ended up in the state it was in only a year ago, even though most people believed everything had been destroyed for decades. I don't remember when we talked about that.

That was the most pointless contextually consistent dream I have ever had.

That's a fair point. My flatmate and I noticed some of 'em climbing up lampposts instead of walking around them, that sort of thing. We wondered if they'd get that sorted for release, but no. I've had a fair few shuffle towards me as well, other zombies have ignored me in favour of climbing an interesting bit of scenery. But I think you're right. At least they're patching it still.

Have you changed anything else in the properties of the func_door? The only thing you should change is the "Down" under the Yaw-compass, everything else should be left at it's default value. (You could of course change the "Speed" if you want them to go down faster)

Warning: More than 8 wadfiles are in use. (20)
This may be harmless, and if no strange side effects are occurring, then
it can safely be ignored. However, if your map starts exhibiting strange
or obscure errors, consider this as suspect.



Down Rodeo said:
Error: More than eight wadfiles are in use

Like the damn thing says, more than eight wadfiles are being used. Since the compilers store the directory locations in a fixed amount of memory using too many wads can cause a lovely buffer overflow! So while it might say in the log "this may be harmless" it doesn't necessarily mean it. In fact if it warns you of this and your map has failed to compile consider this as suspect. Remove them and try again. Seriously, the number of times we've all seen this error. If you have, say, nine wads and are using one texture from each of them, you will need to merge wads.

Q: How do I merge wads?
1. Download and install Wally (yes, it's the same program you are told to install for making your own wads).

2. Open Wally and from the drop-down menus on the top, go to Wizard-> WAD Merge.

3. You can use either the Add WAD or the Quick Add, depending on your needs. (You can open the Add WAD to see what it has to offer)

4. Set all the other options to suit your needs (WAD type should be WAD3) and hit Go.

Well I did some tests.
To start out, I used Map Viewer to establish fps and world poly counts.


Do you get the same result when running the map in the actual game? It could be that Map Viewer renders the graphics differently from the game-engine. (Not saying it is so, but it's always good to double-check that sort of thing...)
User
Through looking around I have read some 'stuff.' Such as the null, clip, and sky textures are the same; as in they render differently, and should be used on surfaces that will not be seen to decrease load time and increase fps. To contradict that, others say that those textures don't actually decrease load time and increase fps.

Furthermore, I read somewhere that putting [for example] a 128x128 texture on a bigger surface will cause that surface to render in 128x128 squares thus increasing load time and decreasing fps.

There are some other few things -for example putting a 'complex' object adjacent to a 'simple' surface will cause that surface to render in as many sides as the complex object- but those all checked out with Valve.

So what are your takes on these...err 'things?'

Also will using the null texture [correctly] reduce world polygon counts?



Another thing, if I have something like a giant rock that you are only going to see say 5 out of 9 faces, would it be more efficient to hollow it and delete the four faces and null the back of the other five?

You know how funny it would be to dox someone and post all their info on this google thing? xD

The same thing happens to me. I'll go to click on an object and it usually selects something behind the one I'm actually trying to select.
Maybe its just how the program is... either that, or we both get the same issue xD

You should be able to just send the .bsp

If you've got .wad files that they need also, the best thing would be for you to set up a quick server and then when they connect it will download all the necessary files for them to play it.

Could you for one time only at least spell correctly, especially when you're explaining something. This can be horribly annoying sometimes.

Q: How do I make my own textures?

You'll need to download and install program called Wally.

1. Make a .bmp of what you want you texture to be.
(The texture size needs to be multiplications of 16. Examples: 16x16 pixels, 32x16 pixels, 96x96 pixels, 80x64 pixels... and so on...)

2. Open Wally and go to File->New.

3. A window titled 'Create New Texture' will open. You can set only one thing in that window- 'Type'. Set the 'Type' to Half-Life Package [wad3] (.wad)

4. Drag and drop the .bmp you made on to your New Texture in wally. You can add as many textures as you want to your .wad file.

5. Save your file in you Counter-Strike directory.

6. Load the texture in Hammer. (Tools-> Options-> Textures-> ADD WAD.)

Q: How do I plug a leak?

First of all, make sure you did not create any entities outside your map. An entity outside your map is just like a leak, if not worse.

If you can not find any entities outside your map:
Load the pointfile generated by the compile tools by selecting the "load pointfile" option in the Hammer menus. Then follow the red line in the viewport to the hole. DON'T delete entities quoted as causing the leak, as they are just mentioned as a reference point. DO use the grid to help avoid leaks in the first instance.


That's pretty much the solution right there. Yes, it sounds like you have a hole in your map somewhere. You might want to review the tutorial too.

Someone actually put a scope on a shotgun, and the machine gun, and a pistol. In fact, the only thing I haven't seen a scope on is grenades. I mean seriously, what the hell is a scope on a shotgun going to do for you? Shotguns aren't long range weapons, you might as well put a scope on an ax.

So I got the idea to make a mini series of maps based on the Metal Gear Solid game, and I got to thinking about it and there are a few things that would be really cool to incorporate into them, but I'm not sure if they are possible.
1.)Trapdoors - I could easily make a trapdoor on the floor where when you step on it, it opens and you fall through to your death. But in the game, it waits like half a second before dropping you through (so basically you can run across it without falling through, but if you stand on it you fall). And also, the door would need to close itself after someone falls through.

2.)Laser fields - There is a couple rooms where there are lasers that you'd have to duck under/jump over to get through, but they are invisible unless you light a cigarette, and the smoke shows where the lasers are. If you touch them, you die. I wanted to do the same thing for the maps, but instead of cigarette smoke, you'd use a smoke grenade to reveal them. And instead of them killing you instantly like in the game, I want them to just reduce your health by like 30%.

3.)Sounds - Is there a way to modify the sounds for a certain map? Not just background music, but like the sounds for when you die and stuff. In metal gear whenever you get shot/hurt he makes a kinda grunting noise, I wanted to use that for when you get shot on the map. And there is also a noise I want to play every time you die.

I'm sure I have more questions, but I'm tired and can't remember, and I don't wanna bore everyone with a million questions, so those are the major ones. Thanks in advance for the help

Well, from own experience, my computer used to crash like twice a year and had to be reset to zero. I did go to alot of casual gamesites though, but viruses were never the cause. I also had to boot my computer like 3 times before it worked, since I always got bluescreens on startup. Some hardware crap. That's the good thing about Macs; although they seem to have weaker hardware, the hardware they have is perfectly synchronized and works together really well.

Of course, if you want to do alot of customizing shizzle and program around your OS and all, a Mac isn't the right thing. It works fine for me though.

It really isn't that Macintosh computers/peripherals/devices are useless. They work perfectly fine, there's nothing physically wrong with them at all. The only problem is the price. Macintosh products are absurdly expensive and there's always something that does the exact same thing for half the price.

If you're wanting a sliding door its func_door
If you're wanting a normal door its func_door_rotating

So make your door.

Next where ever you want your button to be make it
then tie it to func_button and in the 'target' inputbox put
what you named your door [that is the same thing you
put in the 'name' inputbox in the func_door [or func_door_rotating]

Well for the terrorist use player_weaponstrip jus' above the spawn point [at least thats how I believe you use it -I have never actually used it before -regardless that is the entity you want to use] then put the game_player_equip add weapon_knife to the key value [thats the basic way how to do it you may have to change this here and there but....]

[someone correct me on that I don't think its right]


The CT's are easier though you want to put a brush tied to func_buyzone somewhere that nobody can reach at all. That will eliminate the initial buyzones Counter Strike puts in there.

You may be having problems with your armoury_entity because it is on the ground. No entities can be touching a brush, thus you must make the armoury_entity above ground it naturally will fall down to the ground, and no one will know.




OH! Thanks man. Becuase I put the entity way on the ground. Now I put the entity's like 3 units above the ground.

Rhys and Fall is terrible... do not play it. The barbarians in it CAN NOT BE STOPPED. They send camel archers, the unique arabian knight, after you when the best thing you can muster is basic archers. You can not last past 80 turns or so, you WILL die once the barbarians start showing up. They even have the audacity to send groups of 4-8 of them at you at once... you'll be lucky to even HURT one.

the roof as the skybox is that what you mean?? the skybox works in that manner for me.. but the one with the hollow command is confusing me.

i tried the skybox with the "make hollow" thing.. and -32 thickness for walls... it did not work.

Oh happy day

I had actually just wrapped up a game. I was playing on balanced, which I assumed had meant balanced between archipelagos and continents, but instead meant roughly half water half giant land mass. Well, long story short, I covered most of the continent and put Napoleon of the Khmer in a corner. Meanwhile, Hatshepsut of the Russians wanted to jump my bones because I was Ramses of the Indians, and you know, and Genghis Khan of the Portuguese didn't do a whole lot because he wasn't smrat enough and there was no use for a navy. Anyway, I picked off enough of Napoleon's cities via culture flipping to win a domination victory around 1816.

AND I was getting all upset because I knew I wouldn't have time to play another game any time soon, but now I can! just through the interweb thing.

I'd say they ARE overpowered, just not incredibly overpowered. The important thing is that they are really fun and take skill to use. Someone who hasn't figured out how to use any of them yet, or who doesn't even know they exist (as the game never informs you about them) has very little if any chance against someone who does. But it seems appropriate that someone who doesn't know what most of the attacks are should probably lose. Once you've at least played against them and know how to counter or dodge them you don't have to use them to be able to win.

So basically in JO if you're a noob like me, you can't win. See, at least in JA I can win against anyone except the guys who can actually play the game and those are rare.

I have one very important question Mate. Have you played both extensively?

No, I have not. As a matter of fact the only thing I did on JO was reach a room that led to many other rooms and each of them had a different color sign above the doorway in the first level of SP. Then I had to replace my computer due to serious hardware malfunctions and never got around to installing it again.
aaronjer said:
"Hooray! A new Jedi Knight game! Now with 75% less content!" WHY DOES ANYONE PLAY THAT GAME?!

Meh, the single player was fun while it lasted. On jedi master difficulty of course, the other difficulties are way too easy. But it was way too short, I finished it in about 2-3 days on master diff, plus the vs. Jedi fights are too easy compared to the fights against some other enemies. The only tough non-boss fight against a lightsaber user was the second time you fight a Reborn Master (which is right before you come outside to the valley of korriban or whatever that place with all the sith tombs is) because you can't grip-throw him of a ledge. Then again you can completely skip that fight by simply moving to the next level (which is the outside) but I still fought him to at least make that entire level mildly interesting.

I might install JO on the other computer and try out the MP (and maybe SP as well) when I finally manage to get to it, as for the laptop, if JA didn't work properly, JO probably won't either.

I have one very important question Mate. Have you played both extensively? I have. Without the myriad of special attacks that were in JO (most importantly the kicks, because they are so very much fun) the game feels like you're just waving sticks at each other until one of you falls down. And I know there are "kicks" in JA... they are not the same. They are a joke. The very small set of distinct attacks in JA are underpowered... every light saber move in JA is underpowered. It leaves you with no choice but to turn off force powers and then be bored fighting each other with bland and indistinct attacks... it's like... "Hooray! A new Jedi Knight game! Now with 75% less content!" WHY DOES ANYONE PLAY THAT GAME?!

Now a couple of the force power/special attack combinations... those ARE incredibly overpowered, even if they are extremely difficult to pull off. I don't think there's really any defense against the front kick/pull machine gun kick thing, other than hoping your opponent fucks it up or that someone else interferes. But it works out because both people can do it and hardly anyone ever even tries anyway. It also sucks up all your force power in the process, so you're in trouble afterwards if your opponent didn't die or someone else shows up right away.

It worked fine on single player but on multiplayer I had about 1 FPS even though I had the lowest settings. The same thing happens if I try to play CS in OpenGL (D3D mode works fine on 1280x800 though - unfortunately JA doesn't have D3D mode). Guess my video card's OpenGL support isn't very good.

I'm pretty certain Google is fairly big, actually. Though I don't necessarily think this is an awesome, must-have thing. Could be useful on *really* low-power netbooks though.

We have a Jainist?

I mean, we have a Zoroastrian, and a Rabbi, and a weird zen agnostic hybrid, and a bunch of atheists, and the makings of a good "walked into a bar" joke, but I didn't know we had a Jainist. Man. I mean... all the hoops they'd have to jump through just to be on the internet.

Anyway, does the atheism thing make you a bad rabbi or does it make you a better rabbi?

It was all over the news here because we're horribly isolated people with nothing better to do with our time.

Uh.... that last panel is an experimental hot air balloon. It was released somewhere in the midwest last week and the son of its inventor was thought to be on board, except they later discovered him hiding in the attic, presumably to avoid the wrath of his father who didn't want him playing with the prototype. It is now believe that this whole thing might have been a publicity stunt and nothing more, but it was all anyone covered on the news for a span of a few hours.

It looks like a half-blown baloon the shape of a mushroom and the size of a mid-sized dolphin.

Pretty girls are, much to my excitement, littered throughout my dreams like porno magazines in Las Vegas. Even in the face of impending death I will often get sidetracked and go chasing skirts. I'm so easily sidetracked by pretty girls, in fact, that I will wander away from one just because I see another. This only happens when I'm fairly certain I'm dreaming, however. In dreams that really pull me in I'm usually not in the mood for poon when the whole world is collapsing around me and there are giant monsters eating everyone.

It's only been a major drawback a few times. There was that one dream where I sucked the life out of any living thing I touched... upon attempting to have sex with pretty girls the pretty girls rotted away into ash and bones. It was very gross.

Strangely enough, whenever I attempt to have sex with pretty girls out of context of the dream scenario, they always react as though they are slightly confused and curious as to what is happening to them. They're all like, "Huh? What are you doing? Why are you putting that there?" I don't know what that might mean... but they never resist nor participate in the slightest.

Nah, the "attempt to have sex with girl in dream" thing has only happened a few times, through a combination of lack of pretty girls and the inescapable need to figure out oh my god what the fuck is going on?

My friends, I have had a second dream!

Actually, this one is a little hazy as it happened yesterday morning and I didn't write it down immediately. Sucks for us all.

My dream was that I was in a small town, with its own university, that via some unidentified voodoo was being possessed by the old NES Super Mario Bros. game. How I came to this conclusion is difficult to say as almost nothing I saw had any identifiable connection to the legendary world of the Italian plumber. I did not see a single koopa or goomba the entire time, nor anything of that ilk. What I do remember is realizing the change as it came upon the town. I was walking along the road on top of a hill when I felt a blast of air in a wave, hitting me in the back. I turned around to see where it had came from, if anything, and saw nothing, but when I turned again, I saw that all the houses in the row had been replaced by black and white battlements carved out of marble, roughly the same size as one would expect the miniature castles at the end of each ordinary world to be, except aside from two stories, they were entirely of a different architecture. A repeating motif were flanges jutting out in waves from the roof, similar to what one would find on the tip of a venus flytrap, though much thicker. They would radiate outward from the columns as well, and in each garden there would usually be a pedestal, with one of these resting on top similar to a lily pad, and each flanged pad would contain a stone orb, roughly the size of a soccer ball if not slightly bigger. The houses would alternate, white and black all down the row, to the end of the hill, which curved around before setting into a marsh near the bay. No light or signs of life emitted from any of these houses, though there was obviously something unearthly about them, and faintly cold. Ivies would sometimes crawl and drape around the porticoes, but the houses themselves showed signs of neither use nor disuse, they merely were.

I passed a few of these, perhaps three or four, before I walked into one of them. In front of me was a dark staircase ascending, again, neither used nor disused, but merely there. I turned to my left into a small parlor with a grand piano, that opened up into a dining room at the far end. A dim chandelier hung idly from the ceiling. Near the piano, there was a table with a small clay dish that held a glowing orb. I touched this orb and a cloud of mist released, and as it spread around the room of its own mind, the world slowly dispersed and I was in reality again.

I decided to informer my employers about this, seeing as how I was some sort of amateur paranormalist or some such thing. My employers, in this case, were actually my real employers, the editor-in-chief for the magazine I work for and the editor of another magazine whom I also know. I met them in an abandoned building that resembled an office in design and a parking garage in aesthetics, for there was no electricity or windows, all was concrete, and the stains of water dripped down the sides. I spoke with them and they seemed intrigued by my findings, not surprised, but as though something added up in a certain way that had not yet been revealed to me. They encouraged me to continue my investigation. I looked out across the courtyard and saw a girl with long blond hair, dressed in blue, roughly twenty, not especially pretty but not unattractive either, smile at me and then enter a small shack that served no purpose I could tell. I was led away by the editor of the other magazine (quite the genial fellow, not the best listener) and we exited the building and crossed to the shack on the other side of the yard. He opened the door and allowed me to pass through, smiling and reminding me it was haunted, legends from some twenty years ago.

Inside, it was larger than it seemed. To my right was a stone staircase ascending upward into the darkness, improbable, as the shack was connected to nothing on that side. A young man in a khaki jacket and a backwards hat, with backpack, shoulder length greasy black hair and the stubble of a beard, nodded to me nervously, and then disappeared up the stairs. I looked ahead and saw another flight of stairs leading downward. As I reached the bottom, a stone panel slid shut behind me and ahead of me, as though revealing a grand prize in a game show, another panel slid open to a lighted room. I immediately realized that I had been transported twenty years into the past and was now stuck there.

The room was a small library with wooden cabinetry, dense, but by no means overwhelming or foreboding in its collection, for indeed the room was of a very ordinary size. At the wooden desk, there was a secretary, a woman of about twenty (much more attractive) with purple hair cut into a sort of asymmetrical bob, tanned and with light green eyes, she looked up at me from her task and then resumed writing. I continued inward and found another woman, middle aged, with dark eyes, glasses, and dirty blond hair shuffling through papers. As she did so, without a moments loss of concentration, gathered a large portion of her hair with her left hand and then produced a pair of scissors with her right and cut the handful off and then flipped another page. I peered around the corner into an adjoining room. and saw other people, a bald man in a white dress shirt, scanning books on a shelf. Behind him was another table, where people were studying documents, but behind the table, instead of a wall, there was a chainlink fence. The room was very bright, lit by an unseen source, but beyond the fence, darkness and darkness only.

I turned around to face the left side of the main room, which I had left unexamined on entering, and saw another stone panel slide away. The blond girl whom I had seen earlier leaned out, smiling secretly and holding a finger to pursed lips making a "sshhh" noise. She waved me through and I followed her out into daylight, and we got into a car (which I don't remember in the slightest. We drove out on a road, through lush green scenery, which did not obstruct the light in any way. On the sides of the road were clay slopes, not hills quite but more like oversized speed bumps which wound along the path with the road. Eventually, the road opened up to a park at the beach, with many picnickers in white, sandy volleyball courts, and kite flying beyond the trees. She led me to a drainage hole, looked down on it, smiled, and then looked up at me. There was a metal grate covering what appeared to have been a hole of some sorts, but it and all sides around it were filled with wet sand and dirt. I found a stick of gray driftwood, about the size of a walking cane, and struck the dirt between the grating, and the silt drained away like some grand plug had been pulled underneath it and now it could seep freely like water. I suspected in reality it was a warp pipe.

Then I heard my suitemates talking in the lounge and I woke up.
In the F.A.Q. Down Rodeo said:
Error: More than eight wadfiles are in use

Like the damn thing says, more than eight wadfiles are being used. Since the compilers store the directory locations in a fixed amount of memory using too many wads can cause a lovely buffer overflow! So while it might say in the log "this may be harmless" it doesn't necessarily mean it. In fact if it warns you of this and your map has failed to compile consider this as suspect. Remove them and try again. Seriously, the number of times we've all seen this error. If you have, say, nine wads and are using one texture from each of them, you will need to merge wads.

Q: How do I merge wads?
1. Download and install Wally (yes, it's the same program you are told to install for making your own wads).

2. Open Wally and from the drop-down menus on the top, go to Wizard-> WAD Merge.

3. You can use either the Add WAD or the Quick Add, depending on your needs. (You can open the Add WAD to see what it has to offer)

4. Set all the other options to suit your needs (WAD type should be WAD3) and hit Go.

I feel like the small one is just shaped wrong somehow, but I can't pinpoint how. The whitish outline is because this is just a sketch and I didn't bother to feather the fill enough. I only spent like 15 minutes total on that picture... it was just to see if I could find why the pixel version looked wrong. I can make it look correct when I sketch it in a freehand flash doodling environment but when I try to draw the same thing in mspaint it comes out wrong. I just don't get it.

Well a skybox around the map isn't a thing you want in your map, you should make the sky properly.

But unless any of the skybox is close to the edge of the grid, it's not what's causing the problem.

Did you use any vertex manipulation in your map?

Well, the best program in my opinion is 3DSMax (I tried out a few of them, I liked it best). But there are some issues with compiling animated half-life .mdls from 3DSMax so if you use it, you'll need both 3DSMax and Milkshape (if you're not going to animate your models, then 3DSMax will do fine).
One more thing is it's not free (I guess you could download it via torrent if you don't care about anti-piracy laws).

In any case this is a decent tutorial to get you started in modelling.

Yeah, the permission denied thing is because Vista has a cack-handed UAC system. If after running the map through the batch file the game hasn't started properly try entering "deathmatch 1" in the console.

Yes, fascinating. Republicans complain and make up stupid shit about Democrats. As I said, Democrats do the exact same thing. Stop talking as if they don't. The vast majority of politicians on both sides are immature, ignorant, biased and impulsive. Sadly, most of the voters don't think things through for themselves and just believe what their family and friends tell them or what they hear on the radio or TV. There's a few people who vote making a truly informed decision (these people are generally extremely dispassionate about who they vote for), and then there's a few like me who just give up and bang their heads on the wall instead of voting.

Like, how many people actually read the bill itself before deciding whether they are for or against it instead of just listening to what Fox or NBC has to say about? How many people actually look up for themselves the actual policies of politicians before voting for or against them? I'd estimate about thirty... and that makes me a particularly sad panda.

It just pisses me off when Republicans are taking shit the wrong way.

Obama is not from the middle east hes from Hawaii he had the papers to prove it. If he was really from the middle east he wouldn't be president you know that had to look into that. Get over it.

Democrats are not baby killers cause they allow abortion. No one likes abortion, but they give women the right to make that choice.

Who gives a fuck if hes muslim? We all have a differnt religon and besides that point hes not. He came from a Baptist church.

Stupid shit like that and parents take this and tell their children and then they hate Democrats cause of stupid bullshit. Thats what annoys me cause i gatta listen to redneck fuckers go off about Obama cause they don't got nothing better to talk about.

Republicans are to stubborn to even fucking listen and get the facts straight.

Btw what the hell is the deal about Obama telling kids to stay in school and dont do drugs? Why was that such a big deal to Republicans? Sure not like the kids will listen to him, but hes trying to help make things better at least and thats a bad thing? They just find stupid bullshit to get on him about.

As far as I can tell this would best be done as a decal. Unfortunately custom decals are a no-no so the best thing to do would be a texture. Basically whenever you carve a hole into the ice you are making a concave brush, which is bad. But whenever you make it protude it is going to cause players to hit it and stop. So really, clever texturing is the way forward.

This is probably correct, but I have ingested many many units of alcohol, so feel free to ignore it if someone comes up with a better solution. Or an entirely different answer! Who knows what will happen? Not me :)

void main() means the function main has no return type. This, as I have said, is wrong. Main always returns an int, which is why you will see most program's main functions returning 0 right at the end. Of course if there is a problem during execution you can make it return other things. Like 1.

To use printf(): it can be used as a easily as printf("This is a string"); or for the thing you said with variables you could go like printf("This is a string, then an integer which has the value %d",myIntForPrinting). This is different as you can see because it is suddenly taking two arguments rather than just one. The %d is a formatting character. The compiler sees this and knows to substitute a variable in there instead of %d. The %d tells it to format the number as a decimal, which is to say an int. So your thing would be like printf("%d + %d",firstnumber,secondnumber) where the previous line would be scanf("%d",&secondnumber) where you have already defined secondnumber to be of type int. You're going to need to know pointers soon. The wiki page is surprisingly comprehensive. These pages on printf and scanf are really good as well.

I might edit this to have linebreaks at some point, it is very cumbersome to read.

Which tutorial's that? Uh, I started at C++ then looked at C because many things are similar. By that stage I knew what a lot of things did so I was able to look up very specific bits of C if I didn't know how to do something.

I found a C tutorial that tells you to type void main() which is retarded in SO MANY WAYS argh and that's the number one search result on Google, don't use that one.

So what exactly is the difference? Between void main() and int main()?

It might be instructive to think about the things you want to do then try to find small pages on those. Like, "how do I do pointers?" Or you could ask me for a botched job that is more personalised, it's up to you :p

Yeah, unfortunatelly I don't know enough about programming to even know what I need for a certain thing.
For example if I want to printf an integer variable's value then a plus sign ("+") and then another integer variable's value that were previously read by scanf, I have no idea what to use. I just know from that tutorial that it has something to do with %d and &variable_name.
So I'm not even sure what to google.

What I would really need is a good C tutorial for a complete beginner. Though my dad did say he has some book about C, it may prove to be useful. If he can find it.

You can change the preferences to "Good Connection" so you get matched up with people who have a better connection. Honestly Halo 3 Matchmaking sucks, its all about Modern Warfare for me!

That means it tries. Basically my gripe is that the game makes me play against Americans, for most of the time. And since the average latency between me and an east-coaster is at least 100 ms, and very likely more what with me being a country bumpkin, I find that I have quite a few irritating, not-my-fault deaths. I play more Modern Warfare than I do Halo and get annoyed at it too. It seems to have little in the way of lag compensation and so many times in the killcam of the one that kills me I can see my avatar, standing staring at the one that killed me, or firing one shot when in fact I fired a burst.

Back to the topic at hand, I remember when I was younger I had this dream quite often.
There was a birthday party at my house and then I went upstairs and into my room and there was someone there and we talked about some cartoons (I can't remember which). Then I noticed a moth-like creature with a long and spike-like behind on the floor and for no apparent reason I stuck my hand below it. Then it stung me with that thing and then I woke up.
The interesting part is that I had this exact same dream quite a few times, the only difference was that the person in my room was always a different one.
Another interesting thing is that this was my worst nightmare ever. I was always crying like crazy when I woke up... Even though I did once dream I had half my torso eaten by a T-Rex while I was flying on a Pterodactyl. It may have been after watching Jurassic Park. Or maybe after the first time I played through the Lost Valley level of Tomb Raider 1. DR, I'll freely admit that I don't believe you.

So I decided that I'm going to start with a more complex language now so here I am taking my first steps in C++ (I wanted to go with C at first but the tutorials I checked recommended C++). I'm now following this tutorial (in case you know a better one, please share the info).
So this is now the topic where I'll make all the noob questions about it. To start things off:

In pascal I only had two functions to read an input from the user: read() and readln() (readln=read + new line so basically it's just 1 function) where you write the variable into the brackets.
But now I'm only in my first lesson and I've already got 3 different read functions: cin>> variable, cin.get() and cin.ignore() and the latter two were not really properly explained.

So it says that
cin>> thisisanumber;
cin.ignore();

will read the input into thisisanumber and then discard the enter key. So the enter key counts as input as well? And so cin>> will only read the number and leave the rest and cin.ignore() will then read the enter key and discard it?

Also it says that
cin.get();

will just make the program wait for the user to press enter before continuing. This is much like read() from pascal but is this really the only thing cin.get does?

Oh and what do I use to divide 2 integers and get a float? Because this:
int x,y;
float k1,k2;
k1=x/y;
k2=y/x;
cout<<k1<<"\n"<<k2;

gives me integers as k1 and k2.

There is a software package known as "Wine" that allows certain Windows executables to be run in a Linux environment. For instance I can play Diablo II on my Linux install but not Diablo I (it used to work but broke some time ago). Steam works, as do all Source-based games; the best thing to do would be to check the Wine Application Database for a list of programs and to what extent they work.

I'm totally anti-hax (as far as multiplayer goes) and I still use the map hack.

Walking through the game alone or with a friend or whatever is fun every once in a while, but powerleveling and rushing yourself or (especially) other people is the meat of the game. And you can't really do that very well without the map hack.


Speaking of cheating, though, using an item editor in the non bnet ladder game is insanely fun. My favorite thing to do is to create a bow that has a 100% chance to cast a spell on strike. Almost any spell that works is really really funny. I think my favorite is a bow with a 100% chance to cast a high level Fist of the Heavens but does no physical damage. It's like some sort of satellite laser targeting device. A bow that causes teleport is great too. Every time you hit an enemy, they teleport to some random nearby location. Go get a boss by themselves and use a bunch of guided arrows with that bow.

I had a much less interesting dream than usual last night. I was playing WOW with Les and Commie... I know, pretty lame compared to the usual. Also weird, because I normally can't stand that game. ANYWAY! I was doing it all wrong.

Essentially, I found a way to log into WOW without using a WOW account by using some hidden process in Diablo 2. Nobody else knew about it yet, but you could enter any WOW server with any Diablo 2 character on Battle.net. After some testing I found that every character except for Assassins had abnormally low stats, to the point where you couldn't really do anything with them. All characters would be at level 40 when you first entered the game, but their stats would be based on the the level, skills and equipment you had in Diablo 2. Meaning a level 92 with good gear was EXTREMELY powerful upon entering WOW at level 40. In WOW you would see that your character had no race (even though all D2 characters are human), their class was displayed as "D2ASSN" or something similar and was not aligned with Horde or Alliance and could attack or group with either side. You couldn't choose your appearance, you would always be the same model. It was about 3/4 the size a human in WoW is, had long, dark blue hair parted down the middle and base clothing vaguely resembling that of a Diablo 2 Assassin. Many of your equipment slots were missing, and were replaced with an Armor/No Armor toggle button that would change your model and give you a 75% damage reduction that completely ignored armor stats when turned on. The only gear you started with was a powerful shield, that when equipped and unequipped the model for would change randomly. This shield would give a further 15% damage reduction, which made your character very difficult to kill. All Assassins wore a hood and a cloak (not at all like D2) and they made the head and cloak slots unusable, even though they did nothing. Your hands, wrists, waist, feet, accessory and weapon slots were the only ones open to use.

Other than their basic attack and a pure damage (pure damage means it's unresistable, I don't even know if that exists in WoW) kick, Assassins had only 3 abilities when exported to WoW. I don't know if I would have gained more if I'd kept dreaming or not... they were:

Speed: Increases your movement and attack speed by 25%, slowly drains mana when active.

Wind: Turns you invisible (to everything, nothing can target you directly) for 30 seconds and increases your movement speed by 50%. It would wear off if you attacked.

Tempest: Pushes enemies back and stuns/damages them based on their model size in an AoE around you. Smaller target take more damage and are stunned longer. Also increases your attack speed by 400% for 10 seconds.

Yes, it really was that specific and detailed. Don't ask me why. Anyway, only if you had an Enigma in Diablo 2, you would have the ability to instantly teleport to any place in line of sight you double right clicked on. Kinda odd that the abilities were so detailed, and yet were mostly unlike Diablo 2 Assassin abilities.

I went on a Level 40 group quest with Les and Commie and discovered that an imported level 92 character was inordinately strong and could solo the entire thing without even taking damage. At one point in the quest, however, the first character entering (me) a room at the end would automatically be disabled until the other characters literally carried them out on a stretcher. A purple, iridescent stretcher. I don't get it either. I was unhappy to discover that I gained no experience upon completing the quest, and all of the loot disappeared when picked up. We tried another quest with the same result. I eventually discovered that the "D2ASSN" class could only gain XP and loot from killing other players. When you killed a player that was higher level than you they would lose some XP based on their level (which you would gain, like THE VAMPIRE! ^vv^) and they would drop one piece of equipped loot. The object they dropped would change into something else seemingly randomly when picked up, but I think it might have been altering it to make it wearable at your level. Killing higher level characters, by the way, was very easy. The town guards would totally ignore your conflict, and your target couldn't retaliate easily against an opponent that can turn invisible or teleport at will and stun you while invisible. Upon seeing me other players would say things like "WTF class is that?" or "Your character is broken." or "Quit hacking, noob!"... to which I would respond by shanking them.

After doing this for a while, Nezumi figured out a way to log onto WoW with an Asheron's Call character. In his case I warned him that stats in Asheron's Call were generally much lower than those of WoW, and that this was probably not a good idea. However, it turned out that an AC character would be modified to be the approximate strength of a WoW character of the same level. Given that Nezumi was like level 150, he was completely unstoppable. His character was far more broken than mine, and not just in it's indomitable fighting skills. Jumping would cause him to log off, running forward cause him to gain experience at 1% of the XP required to level every 100 feet, and running backwards would cause him to lose XP at the same rate. His attack spells could be dodged, like in AC, although nobody knew that... but his debuffs were so powerful that an endurance/health debuff would instantly kill almost any character. He still had mana conversion and the related spells from AC, meaning that it was essentially impossible for him to ever run out of health/mana/stamina or whatever he was using. Les and Commie eventually got mad that we were breaking the game so much, given that Nezumi had somehow summoned an armada of airships and was indiscriminately bombing the entire world, and they stopped playing. Nezumi even made it unplayable for me, at which point I woke up.

I should also mention that I woke up twice during this dream, and went straight back into it after going to the bathroom or whatever.

I don't remember how exactly I got there, but I was on a vacation overseas. The peculiar thing about it was that everyone spoke English and there were a great deal of tourists in an area that I wouldn't anticipate either. We were in the middle of the desert, bright with salt flats stretching to the horizons where some low, rugged hills circumscribed the field of vision. The facilities were old, ranging from 1970s to around the wild west area (all the more peculiar since this was not the west, but somewhere in the middle east).

One thing they had going for it was mass transportation, which was not only convenient but entirely free. Nevertheless, the mode was a bit unusual. There was a central platform of concrete and plexiglas, with a few freestanding lightposts, but no cover. Still, I never noticed the heat even though all else was heavy with light. At regular intervals, something akin to a catwalk on wheels (a large metal grate) would roll up on the tracks and some people would step on, holding onto the central poles (it was not enclosed) and away they went. Not really thinking about it, I stepped on the first platform I saw and we began to speed through the desert.

Night started to fall and we reached the outskirts of some town, run down, a few power stations and nothing more. The tram slowed to a halt without any shuddering or audible noise, then realigned to another track which shot into the air at roughly a 30% incline. The track did not seem to have any ground supports and I regarded this with some mild wonder. We soon reached a cliff and proceeded in front of a large graveyard, again looking as though it came out of some other century, save for the fact that there were no wooden crosses. In front of each headstone, there was a small grouping of candles in small glass dishes. The hillside was filled with them and the procession went on for some five minutes before we turned. I wonder why a place which would otherwise be valued for such a view of the surrounding desert would be used simply for graves, but we soon turned and continued on up into the town proper.

The tram pulled up and stopped in a supermarket that was poorly lit and seemed to have gone a few decades without improvement or renovation. Save for the fact that it had train running through it, it was otherwise fairly ordinary. I met an old man there who was quite eager to chat, but what we spoke of, I'm no longer able to remember. I think it might have been ice cream. In the cold foods section I kept seeing packages of bacon, and I continually thought to myself how strange it was as this was the middle east, somewhere, and bacon is not an acceptable food there so far as I knew.

I had a dream. I went to the next room and wrote myself notes as soon as I could move, which was surprisingly quickly. Here goes...

I can't really remember the beginning of this dream very well. It might have started with me speaking to my girlfriend and her mother but that might have been another dream that got caught up in this other one. Whatever. It ended up that at some point we (myself and members of my family?) were having a meal in a small local restaurant. It seemed pretty cool, there were reasons why we had done this but I can't remember what they are.

After eating we left, wandering to our respective cars. This is when shit gets a little crazy. For some reason I was aware that you really really didn't want to be around after dark. I don't know why. Also at this point it was late-ish but not quite dark; it was instead the sort of grey that Scottish skies can keep up for an entire day. I remember seeing a car with one of my friends in it drive by; this has no further bearing on the story.

Just then a car bumped my parents' car. Obviously we decided to phone the police then and so a car turned up. We talked to him about what had happened then through chatting to him discovered that he was to perform an execution... At this stage, things go blurry, I can remember seeing faces but have little idea why. It might be tied to the whole not going outside thing. The policeman was saying how much he hated it, it was a totalitarian state, it was terrible, but never went through with the executions. He said he would prove it to us. We got into his car and started driving. I tried to say how funny it was, my friend and prior flatmate's biggest fear was a totalitarian state. (Incidentally this is true, he finds V For Vendetta very scary for the future it represents; I think he's paranoid.) I say tried as I couldn't get a word in, this cop (who looked a little like River Cuomo from Weezer, in particular the 'tache) was talking at us, not stopping. We drove towards a sort of shopping... complex? I can't think of the word for this. Lots of shops, edge of town, but not a mall. Anyway he started driving crazily, launching through glass windows, onto more roads. Very cinematic.

This is where my memory starts to annoy me as some things strike me as being important and obvious but I can't remember why. We eventually drove into another building and lo and behold there is one Beyonce Knowles standing there. She looked upset, stamped her foot and threw her expensive ring at us. The policeman looked at us knowingly; the ring helped with the darkness maybe? I seem to remember that. He said, "See?", and we felt cynical and depressed. Then I remember an action shot where time slowed down, four silvery spheres (like spherical bullets) flew through the window in front of us, then at normal speed smacked into the car's occupants, though I didn't see this.

As some kind of denouement I remember seeing a wooden bowl filled with various important-looking reagents, some of which were the metal balls, also small, golden-coloured nuggets and some wiry substance, which burst into flame. The balls melted and as they evaporated they showed a man of Indian descent. The person watching the bowl (not me although I shared his perspective) shouted a name. At this point I woke up, probably because the doorbell was ringing.

----------

I don't know what to make of that, irritatingly I am aware that there are many pieces missing. Like for instance, that guy at the end? He appears at various points through it. A possible connection is that my girlfriend is in India and I am missing her rather a lot. Depressingly when I saw her in the dream I seem to remember her hating a surprise I have planned for her

It's probably some html thing or something, I don't know.

It's to do with the C language. Backslashes are used as an 'escape' character, to do special things. For instance, strings of characters are terminated with a trailing \0. A tab is \t and a new line is \n. If you want to show a single slash you have to write two (the backslash 'escapes' the next character, in this case a backslash). You'd write it like \\. Of course, to write that here, I wrote \\\\.

Just make the sky across the whole map and put 1 light_environment environment anywhere in the map.

the_cloud_system said:
how do i make func_rotating work to go clockwise

If it goes counter-clockwise normally then just check the Reverse direction flag.

the_cloud_system said:
and how to trigger it

Just give it a name and then target it with e.g. func_button.

lol sorrey mate i found it then i dleated my post ^_^
the_cloud_system said:
how about that glass?

Just make the brush and texture it with any glass texture (there are quite a few). For that matter you can texture it with any texture but it will look a bit strange.
Then tie it to func_breakable (if you want the glass to break) or func_wall (if you want it to be bulletproof).
Then set the Render Mode to Texture and FX Amount to something 60-100ish.

the_cloud_system said:
i dont have this thing called sky

Tools->Options->Textures in Hammer and see if you have zhlt.wad on the list.
If you don't, get it there.
If you do, on the right side of the hammer window there's a Texture group part. Press browse there, make sure the 'Only used textures' is NOT checked and then under filter write sky.

the_cloud_system said:
this is my idea
i have buttons on the ct side about half way threw that spins the whole t side

OK... Good for you. Was this a question?

the_cloud_system said:
so how can i make that button nonspamable "30 sec apart"

You want the button to be unpressable for 30 seconds after you press it? Then you have to set the 'Delay before reset' property to 30.

the_cloud_system said:
when i make the water transparent is is sopost to look not trasparent in hammer

Nothing looks transparent in hammer as far as I know if that's what you're asking.

the_cloud_system said:
can one button do 2 things

Yes, you can either name both targets the same or you can use a multimanager.

the_cloud_system said:
what can i do to make the floor break when a persons on it

Make it a func_breakable, in flags check Pressure.

the_cloud_system said:
how do i make like a convare belt so the afk gets killd "pushed off to die"

Maybe I could decipher this if I tried really hard but I'm not going to.

the_cloud_system said:
and the glass thing one way...

Glass that you can only see through from one side? Here's a tutorial on that.
