Re: RSS type thing?

I don't really see why you would embed a scripting language into your application just so you could pull data(text?) from a server. To me it looks like what you are trying to do is just that, client says "hello server" server says "[text formatted so you can parse it into headlines an...

Re: I'm going to need some advice and feedback...

Hopefully, haha. :P I've redesigned a lot of it after taking everybody's advice. I haven't added in the sword in yet, but I think I did a better job on this one. I didn't use dithering because I can't, heh. I'm pretty intimidated by dithering overall, so I probably won't be using it yet. I added mo...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ggwu5sWU0Mo&feature=fvw I'm sorry that I'm linking to part 2, it's still just as retarded as part 1 and so on... I seriously can't describe how hard and how many times I face-palmed... it's by far the most atrocious human I've had the liberty of listening to. Ugh....

Re: Can I get your opinions?

I'm not any great pixel artist myself, but i think the shape of the body should be more organic, also in the 3rd dimension(shading).

Re: Your opinion on ubuntu?

Maybe I'm over reacting on this but as soon I got EQ running in linux I had to spend 2 days debugging to find that newline characters were read in from files and fucked our content. I think this is just as much a windows problem as it is a linux problem. I read this blog post once, and i think it c...

Re: Your opinion on ubuntu?

As per this whole C/Go file path thing, I'm lost as well Nico :P Go was just an example. My point is that programs that are not written in C/++ are annoying to deal with in the linux directory structure. And that even when you write C/++ programs, the files are scattered around the entire system, w...

Re: Java

For IDE's i would recommend Eclipse or Netbeans, but i would also recommend to play a little with javac(the java compiler) directly from the commandline to get an idea about what's going on behind the scenes especially if you are completely new to programming. For game development, i haven't really ...

Re: Your opinion on ubuntu?

Also, not all programs come packaged for being installed on filesystems like this. Lately i have installed the go programming language, which don't come with any installers, so you have to figure it out yourself. I don't even think it is possible to split the program up in different folders like th...

Re: Your opinion on ubuntu?

It is like, for example a Java program, doesn't really "fit" in the system. That doesn't bother me none. :lol: You are not using a single program running on the JVM? Even for C++ programs I find it a mess. I searched my system for "firefox" and here is some of the directories i ...

Re: Your opinion on ubuntu?

Don't worry I understand. I just find it tediouse. I'm enjoying linux very much apart from the file system its a much nicer system than windows. :) Really? I almost prefer the unix-style file systems. File extensions are a pain in the ass most of the time. I also like having everything in config fi...

Re: Question on game structure?

Just pass each class that should have access to the image manager a pointer to it(an instance of it).

No reason to use the singleton pattern...
