Poor kid. Taking a look at your github I'd say you program in nothing. The emo selfie is appropiate tho, if you want to work as a male prostitute. And overall, I'd say you have no special knowledge about anything, no proper education, no certifications, and obviously no talent for art. Just a wannabe. You can't fool anyone, that's the reason you're unemployed. Why don't you try to work in McDonald's? I think they ocasionally hire people with Asperger.

bump for the tick!

What this guy above wants to say is that your graphics are ugly by any beauty standard on this world and that you have no talent for art at all, so forget about it. Btw, CDROM doesn't exist anymore and sending a pendrive through mail is nonsense if you can send exactly the same thing through e-mail.

> bruh, I don't need tips, I have touched the hand of god himself. I made no mistake, you're literally an ENORMOUS moron. Who seems to becoming an even bigger moron every time you post. The story isn't finished, therefore the outcome of the situation of how I became so awesome, upbeat, and headstrong into the world hasn't been reached yet. If you'd touched the hand of God he'd spit you out like a diasease. You're lying to yourself. As it's obvious to everyone with eyes you're still an unwealthy, marginalized, abused, unloved, hearing-impaired, very insecure of himself person. If you'd found love you wouldn't be sharing your feelings on the Internet. If you weren't traumatized you wouldn't think so much about your white trash life and try to rationalize everything lying to youself with fallacies so nothing was your fault. And, if you had any real friends, you wouldn't make such an effort to maintain your virtual relationships nor spend so much time in here. Now keep calling names while you're hiding behind a computer, it's only proof of a-) you doing here what you haven't ever done in real life because you have no balls due to having no father b-) you doing here what step daddy used to do to mommy. Choose wisely, low class scum. Now I'd wish you good luck but you wouldn't know what to do with it if you got it.

Budweiser is right. Love has no age if we understand love as sex and the will of caring for each other. Despite this, the modern concept of relationship is based on the premise of sharing the rest of your life with someone, live together and have kids, and so many people follows this premise because it makes a lot of sense considering there will come a day when you will be unnatractive, and soon after that you will be handicapped, unable to take care of yourself. You both are hungry of sex and satisfying yourselves, but you won't build up a life together because you can't. You're a kid and she's already old for reproduction.

So your oily skin isn't the true origin of your suffering. Good. I can give you some tips, if you admit you made a mistake the other day.

By the way, I haven't told you guys my personal story: I had acne from 14 to 18\. First six months I went to the doctor and he gave me some lotions and tips like washing my face a few times a day, none of them worked. Then I started practicing meditation and understood it's okay to have acne, the psychological pain exists only in your mind because the acne itself doesn't stop you from doing anything, it's not a disability. When I was 15 I managed to get a girl and found happiness. I overcame my complex. Now, every year I have more wrinkles and white hair, but I am proud of my aging traits, it is proof that I've walked a very hard path. My logic isn't that you shouldn't fix things, my logic is that you should ask yourself if there's something that really needs to be fixed. TehDoug didn't have a problem, he made a problem out of something that was irrelevant. > I know your kinda person dude, you think you know everything about everyone and every kind of person, and can read problems and try to assume everything's right because your some kinda genius that understand people. Well, you're completely wrong about my perspective on everything. I am VERY secure about how I feel, and don't give two bum candies what people think about me. Ask anyone here, I have done enough stuff to INTENTIONALLY humiliate myself because it's funny. I literally wrapped about sucking stick once. I want to look good for me, because when you look good, you feel good. When you think good, you feel good. You want to follow his path, go ahead. I'm done trying to reason with you.

> That's like saying someone with a huge hole in their chest should embrace it and not be bothered that they have to keep .washing the wound out; after all, just embrace it! That is Crest's choice to fix a PROBLEM with his body. Like im having surgery soon to fix something on my body. Problems that are fixable, get fixed. Its that simple. If you want to pretend you live in 10,000 BC then feel free. > > > > You are using our logic right now, You are currently using a computer/laptop/tablet or something similar to communicate with us, instead of sending us a letter. You fixed a problem of mailing us and many of you're aggressive thread posts, You fixed the problem by using the internet, you FIXED not knowing our addresses, names and saved you're self the trip to the post office. > > > > If you want to live like a Caveman, feel free to never cut your hair, since after all, its natural and cutting it will fix the problem for now but it will grow back, Why brush your teeth? You're just going to eat and replace the bacteria. Why even breath? You're going to die anyway? > > > > See how stupid it seems? > > > > Keep at it crest! Your daughter is disabled and yet you think having red spots in your face is a PROBLEM?? Can you explain to me why is acne a problem? What is a PROBLEM for you??? You didn't even have acne and still you went to the doctor aiming for the "perfect skin" when you were younger, and you took a drug to achieve it. And now look at you, a few years later, now you're having surgery. **Thanks for proving my point.** Hope your ineptitude has convinced Crest that he shouldn't be obsessed about it.

> You are literally an enormous moron. Our bodies break down, sometimes when we're 80, sometimes before we're even born, but it always happens. Do you want to spend the rest of your life suffering for your looks? Even if you healed your acne tomorrow, new imperfections will come to your mind. And after you've covered all the minor ones, eventually you will end up doing retarded stuff like having surgery (therefore risking your life) because you dislike your nose. Vanity is like a drug, a mental one, and for every up there is a down. You can learn Yoga and forget about what the society expects of you. You're good as you are right now, really, you don't need to fight anymore, just enjoy your present as you are instead of being sorry for what you aren't. In your avatar you look a little short, tho.

> Taking care of your body is keeping it functional thanks to a healthy lifestyle. You are only trying to take care about what others may think or feel whenever they look at you, but when you grow up you realize that's impossible. That's why you're a teenager, you're not worried about your health, you have a complex. Now keep lying to yourself, I don't care because I don't love you, but you should love yourself.

> So weird topic I know, but… I thought it would be cool, weird to ask on this forums though. > > As most of you know, I am one hell of a handsome man, proof by the Real Life Picture Thread, or as some like to call it, The Crest & Yukiro Selfie thread. > > Joking set aside, I have had acne since I was 17 and I have been for YEARS trying to get rid of it. I've tried Proactive which I heard really helps, but it never seemed to work for me. I wash my face all the time and can't seem to clear it. > > Does anyone here use breakout solution? If so, what brand and how does it work for you? Acne doesn't go away by washing your face so stop doing it compulsively, it's not even healthy for the skin. Accept yourself, you aren't going to be more loved by having less zits. If you don't want to accept yourself, you have two options: 1) wait until you stop being a hormonated teenager 2) smash your body with dangerous oral pills that no medic will ever recommend to you unless your face is full of infected bleeding craters the size of the moon.

> In my experience, the server can handle up to 70 fine. If you want more, you simply just need to break the server processing up more and allocate them to do different tasks, sort of like a cluster server. These engines were never meant for big games, and even my game does not exceed the need of Eclipse yet. I doubt yours will. I find funny how you put others down at the same time you compliment yourself every time you talk about your beliefs. Even if his game didn't actually have a chance of success and yours did, what would be the purpose of stating it? Time to compensate for being insensitive by doing stress test.

> Well, to begin, I would try to figure out what your computer can put out on the network, and how much network output/input your computer can take. after that I would worry about your processor/servers ability to handle stress… > > A very (very) bad, and very (very) expensive way to do it is to ddos yourself on that port. but ya know... internet companies dont like ddosing. and its kinda illegal in most developed countries. I think Colonello wants to stress test the engine, not the server. The question is: assuming we have X bandwidth, processor, and ram, how many people Eclipse can handle without crashing/lagging? Frankly, I'm interested too. We could set a day to stresstest various versions of Eclipse with any bandwidth/hardware specs and from there extrapolate the results to know exactly what we would need to host 30 users or 200. 10 users in each map, each map with 100x100 tiles, and some npcs to interact with.

Es una chapuza pero consigues lo que necesitas y sin programar.

> This is most definitely true, but the way Windows operates is in no way close to Linux in terms of security. Linux has had SUDO aka UAC in Windows way before it. Windows has always been behind Linux in the core design, but Windows makes up for it for making it easy for developers. That's the one thing Microsoft has done right. Linux has always been behind Windows in the core design if we talk about usability and new user-friendly stuff. It doesn't even have a graphical system, the X-Windows is just an addon. Linux is a sandbox, therefore you get freedom and stability, but you lose many things on the other side. > A better word to use is terribly "designed". I consider coding and design two of the same. You can code the most beautiful code in the world, but if the design sucks, the code sucks. > > > > I am not riding on a "high horse", just cause I stand by my beliefs. I am stating my opinion, don't like it then fine. People don't want to know how a car work, they don't care, they just want to drive it, and they want the car to work without having to make any tweaks or learn geek stuff. Windows has always allowed your car to run with ANY kind of hardware. I can laugh at Linux plug and play, if such thing exists. > The ability to work in the source-code and the end result are equally important. **Microsoft** is known to be bad at both. They basically do not finish transitioning their OS over to a new paradigm. For example, **Vista** was an unfinished OS which had a series of problems as did WIndows 8 and 8.1\. Now, that 10 is also changing a lot, it will have problems too, because **Microsoft** doesn't polish enough. They keep changing the OS a lot and not really making a standard and sticking with it. Microsoft is one of the biggest companies in the world. The people that works there are the best of the best, light years away from us. Their standard is to make an OS usable with the less possible knowledge about computers and running in every hardware. They change lots of things because new hardware for dummies keeps appearing (Would it be comfortable to use a touch screen with Windows XP?) If I recall correctly Windows has had only two failures: Vista and ME, but the amount of triumphs is way higher. > **Linux** takes skill to use, but for power users it works wonders. The reason why I still use **Windows** is due to 3rd party software not being there yet, having to run **Wine**. Linux doesn't take any special skills, just takes time. What you can do in Windows with a few clicks can take a new user a few hours in Linux because he doesn't know a certain command or where a configuration file is stored. Linux is good for servers, like I said. The reason you use Windows is because it is the most successful operating system in the world, and that infinite amount of 3rd party software is the result of paying attention to the little details, something Linux doesn't and never will.

> oh my bad i didnt realize intelligence was based on grammar. Clearly you're superior. good luck finding the super undetectable virus inside the open source program. The use of capital letters for languages is orthography, not grammar. Intelligence is the ability to understand your surroundings and modify them at your pleasure, or at least that's the big gap between us and the rest of living species on this planet. I am honestly sorry if I made you feel inferior, it won't happen again. > For clarification, Pinguinoz states that the pre-compiled binary(.exe) file is infected, I believe he also stated that the source has nothing to do with this, which is pretty true. Thank you. I have the thrill of making a very specific-themed game for a very specific group of people and Eclipse could allow me to do so. I found that every other 2D ORPG engine stopped being developed years ago, so this was my only real chance of fulfilling my personal dream and I'd better do something to contribute and keep this community alive, because if it dies so does my dream. Thanks to my new user perspective I actually could do something, so first day I tried to point out that for the community to keep growing it was neccesary to make it more new user-friendly (for the first two hours I didn't understand a thing) mostly because the website poor layout and content -still says Eclipse Origins is the official engine- plus the virus false positive is something terrible (NEW USER ORIENTED) that needs to be fixed. Seth didn't really think this was very important so I decided to add a little drama. Maybe if the community pressured him he would get the things done (or request tasks to others since trying to do everything by oneself is a terrible mistake), but since apparently no one but you understood what I was stating about the server.exe I've decided to throw the towel, I can't take this anymore hahaha. No matter what happens from now on, please remember I was just trying to make this a better place. I haven't hard feelings for anyone, and I'm so sorry for disturbing Baron Mohenjo inner peace, he seems a very friendly person.

> I don't use an Anti-Virus other than the one Windows provides you with. (That'd be MSE for Windows 7 and lower and for Windows 8 it's Windows defender) I am not affected by any viruses and let me tell you that my machine is not my private one, my family uses it as well. I do occasionally get the PUPs by installs of someone on my PC but other than that no viruses. I see no reason why you would need an AV. > > EDIT: btw you say that when you compile it down there are no "viruses" in the client and/or server. So why not just use VB6 and compile it for yourself? If anyone is as insecure about viruses as you then they are free to get a copy of VB6 legit or otherwise and compile the exes You use an antivirus and ask me why you would need one. Pardon me but I find that funny. Why don't you turn off that useless piece of resource-consuming trash? Imagine how important is it that they've put one into the actual OS. Thousands of software's new versions are released every day and many contain exploits (most of the time unintentionally) that can be abused, or backdoors . There are even public exploit databases. For example, there've been countless exploits for browsers and 2384923471 patches to fix them, and still every day new vulnerabilities are discovered. How do you think DDoS attacks are performed? Millions of computers are infected and their users don't know it. The Internet is not a safe place and I can expect you to believe something just because you trust someone, but stop telling fairy tales that a real beginner can believe. A false positive doesn't exist per se, it's always code potentially able to violate your privacy without your consent. If someone wants to discuss this matter please come with logic arguments and try to avoid ad hominem attacks, some of them work against you.

> it seems that english isnt your first language so id really suggest you dont try to argue in english anywhere even if you actually know what you're talking about at the time. open source. the code in its entirety is there for you to read. no clue what you're talking about otherwise. I am from Spain. I speak five languages and English is the fifth one I learned, before that I learned Spanish, French, German and Portuguese. I may not be able to speak like a native but my knowledge of English is enough to tell that the names of languages are always written with a capital letter. With your redaction skills and overall intelligence consider yourself lucky if you get a job at McDonalds. Now I would argue with you, but fighting with so much advantage doesn't turn me on. > Yes, people who program can make viruses, we don't because it's only temporary amusement, and Worlds isn't a virus, look in the code if you want. No where does it send the server files to another computer except for the clients. Antivirus say it could be a virus because it weakens your firewall protection because you're letting other computers send information directly to your computer. > > Now, it would be nice if the issue of the false positive was fixed, but claiming it's a virus just because it was claimed that it wasn't with no proof is just as dumb. You have no proof either. > > > > Oh yeah, since it's my thing, let's please keep this thread on topic, not bashing engine,s if you want to criticize Worlds, then by all means do, but please make a thread titled justly for said action. Thank you. The uncompiled/source version is clean, I tested it. I am talking about the compiled binary executable (server.exe). The virus scan is the proof like the proof of evolution is that we share a not-so-far common ancestor with the ape. A creationist will tell you that whatever the scientist found is a false positive, a mistake, a misunderstood. You can't weaken a firewall, you can disable a rule or turn it off, but a third party program doesn't have the power to do so, and if it did, well, that would be a malware. > Eclipse has been reported as a virus for at least 5 or 6 years. If it does have one its been in a looooong time. Sorry to read that. > Virus detection software is fail safe. It will detect software that is legit as a virus, sorry that you are not smart enough at a computer to know that anti-virus is for novice computer users. I didn't code **Eclipse Origins 4**, I coded **Eclipse Worlds**. I was given my first computer in 1986\. I don't know if I am smart at it, but I know that antivirus software is mandatory for Windows-based operating systems and anyone denying this fact has a big reason to do so. I am aware you coded Eclipse Worlds, my post in the Origins thread was an accident.

Let's be honest here. A talented programmer able to develop networking code doesn't notice a virus alert of his own program? Obviously he does, and the most important fact: he knows why. I found astonishing no one complained about this, so I searched and then I came into a post from October 2014 where another user mentioned that his antivirus didn't go along well with the server.exe, and Seth answered something like "There's no virus. Are you really gonna doubt my word? Trust me." Now the user from India guarantees there's no virus, but, like Seth, he doesn't provide any information related to the issue. If I've learned something in my life is that only a con man would ask you to believe his word without giving proof. They both share the same signature so they obviously work together. Why he hasn't fixed it yet? He's looking for a way to cover up that code and make it 100% undetectable, and until he does that it's better for him not to say a word, keep it low profile because the less people keeping track of it the better. He aims for new users with his businessman mentality so the server will become malware clean eventually. The truth is I already know what is going on (thank you reverse engineering), and I know why he won't ever confess. This was his argument in October: **_And the fact that you shouldn't care if the server has a virus or not based upon the findings of AVs. The client is the only thing you should be scanning. There's not going to be a virus in a program I compile that is also open-source._** I will let you guys judge the strenght of his argument by asking two questions: 1\. Shouldn't we really care if the server has a virus? 2\. Since when releasing source code changes anything? Even I could shorten/enlarge a random piece of code in SOURCECODE-PUBLIC so I could introduce an *extra* in SOURCECODE-PRIVATE but the size of both packages remains the same even in a byte level after I compile SOURCECODE-PUBLIC and release it for downloading.

> Eclipse Worlds is going to be getting full support. I suggest using my engine. Eclipse Origins 4.2 is just here for now, basically an archived engine like the rest of the ones we offer on the site. Advanced users and veterans use these engines, new users should use our supported engine. After overthinking it too much, I think I wouldn't have gotten the false positive if you didn't implement code able to send information from my machine to yours. Call me evil-minded but I've seen this before. > Diagonal movement isn't that good unless you have the 8 dir character sheets which most people don't, and it can get buggy unless you code in the fixes. Anyways, as for the slowness aspect, it's slow because we've actually implemented running (one of the few engines to actually fix that) that increases with agi, and we don't want you out walking the NPCs. It's a simple change in the code if you want to change the walking speed, just search Running and you should find walking_speed right under it, set to 6 if I remember correctly? I pressed shift (intuitively) and saw what you said, then made another character with default agility for testing purposes. Not bad, it adds gameplay and makes sense if you want to have faster/slower classes or races. I figured what was giving me the 'weird' feeling: if you hold Left and press Down while holding Left, then your character moves Down; BUT if you hold Right and press Down while holding Right, your character keeps running/walking to the right. Also, you can Down-Right, but you can't Down-Left. And you can't Up-anything. This happens with Eclipse Origins too so no complaints about your engine xDD.

I'm not sure on how well any engine can handle 100 players capacity, but if any of them is able to, it's probably Eclipse Worlds. Thank you for your reply. All I can tell you about the virus alert is "Win32:Evo-gen" (generic alert) and it's related to "explorer.exe". I am not stating it has a virus, I am stating it could be a virus. The network I would like to run the server on is protected by antivirus software and I don't have priviledges to disable it, so can't run the server. That's all. But you totally understood my point, I'd rather have an online chatroom with 24/7 uptime than a fancy server with lots of features that crashes ten times a day.

Googling for a MMORPG maker I discovered RPG Maker and one page lead to another until I landed here. Hello. I'm new to this community and today I did a tedious reading to understand how things work here. I've spent a few hours trying different engines (sometimes just attempting to try) and I can't decide myself yet. Wish Eclipse Worlds was virus-clean so I could try it, because it looks like the most polished and updated engine even if I consider his author a depressed being and a lost soul. I've tried Prospekt. GOOD looks but it crashed like 5 minutes after I started building a game with its external editor. Also I've read than even after you've made your game it has random server crashes ocasionally. I've tried latest version of Eclipse Origins. VERY BAD looks and unpolished system. I couldn't even take my pants off because there wasn't a class for pants in the ini file, and if I deleted pants graphics the game would crash. I've tried Eclipse Renewal. Seems stable, UI looks fine and I can change character sprites easily unlike with Origins, but the character movement feels so slow (maybe because there's no diagonal movement). I just need stability and a headache-free work environment. I design websites so I'm used to reading and understanding code, that's why I don't need a GUI for everything, I have no problem in editing language/config/class/script/GUI/graphics files, but I have not the experience or the patience to fix bugs in Visual Basic. I need a bug-free stable engine and I wish it could hold at least 100 online players in the future. Any ideas?
