IFX

So i've been working on a friend system that requires sending a request to the player before the friend request can actually go through. And to add to that works if the players are online or offline. Everything is stored server side and it works kind of similar to xbox's friends request system. Would it be worth my time to post a tutorial for it on here? or would no one really find it useful? ITS DECIDED: I'll do it.

> These are… oh man... wow these are bad... > > Also, Quackers made this post in June of 2014, I doubt he still needs the logo.... Necroposting FOR DAYS! Thats what you get for free. also, I was doing it because I was bored. it really wasnt a matter of the need. And it was near the top of the requests so I didnt assume i was necroposting.

id be down. why not. I've never played it either, but i can commit. have enough free time to anyways.

To be honest i do not think the engine should go on steam. that would bring a lot of unnecessary trolls/idiots onto the forum that we do not need. In all honesty i think its a bad idea.

20/2(5+5) pemdas parentheses, exponents, multiplication/division, addition/subtraction. parentheses, 20/2(5+5) –-> 20/2(10) exponents, there are none multiplication/division, theres more then one problem involving multiplication, but it does not matter because it will multiply out to the same thing so: 20/2 (10) –-> 10(10) ----> 100 there. its 100\. Problem solved. Give me some difficult maths.

You just wanted to tag me in your post because you knew I was waiting on an extremely important document from Nigeria about a lottery I won. I sent them my passport last week and I am expecting a email today with my ATM card with 1 million of my winnings on. Please refrain from useless riff raff. > > > > Ta

I feel as though I could put one together in the next couple days. However it's not happening tonight. its 4 am here and I'm going to sleep.

@[member="TehDoug"] You just love to troll people don't you?


I'll take up the project. why not.

bump? maybe?

So my whole life I've been obsessed with doom. My father, being a tech junkie, and rather immature when he's not working on something, has always been at the "head of video games" for the majority of time that video games have been around. (up until current next gen consoles). And having said this, he raised me on doom, doom 2, and ultimate doom. Before i could walk he had me sit on his lap and press the spacebar so he could shoot. Which has lead me to a long addiction to the doom games, and fan made wad's for the games. Now, about the time of my 10th birthday my dad got me doom 3 collectors edition for my xbox. I never played it much, and 10 year old me later rendered it unplayable. (go little me). However, the fanboy-ness has all ways been there. Which leads me to the last week of my life. Doom 3 and Doom 3 BFG edition. Sitting around the other night i came across my old copy of doom 3\. As crappy as before, but still there. And i decided i would do something that no one should ever mention on eclipse. I torrented (GASP) a copy of doom 3 bfg edition. I'm not sharing links, mentioning it is okay. and played it for almost 16 hours straight. After taking a short break to sleep I decided i would do some research and maybe try ID's first attempt at doom 3, the original version of the game. My first issue with it. It is beyond a slow crawl. Doom 3 that is. It's a horror game with shooter features that loses its horror aspect after about 30 minutes of play time. Second issue, the flashlight. Having to switch between your weapon and your flashlight instead of just strapping it to your gun seems beyond silly. Especially with how dark the game is compared to BFG edition. The missions seemed long and repetitive and overall it was just irritating to all get out. The BFG Edition has fixed most, if not all of these issues. Being more entertaining, more difficult, having better graphics and smoother loading times is overall a much better game. It even got its HUD reworked which made me happy. Over all worth the "purchase". But, after hours of play time invested, i decided it was time to give multiplayer a go. Playing against eachother seemed cool but what i wanted to do was beat doom together, like I do frequently with friends using skulltag. now here is my issue, the BFG edition fell in one aria that the precursor did not, mods. The BFG edition does not have any form of internal mod handling. And I have not attempted to get mods to work on it any other way, but I imagine you can with the CMD. But the only way to run coop is with mods. I guess the overall conclusion is if you enjoy being irritated out of your mind by slow crawling horror games, get the original. and if you enjoy playing with friends, get the first. But if you want a truly entertaining time, get the remake. It runs better, has more play time in it with its expansions, and if you're willing to beat it once to get nightmare mode is beyond a challenge. IFX OUT

First off, not sure where this goes. off topic seems to fit. now onto better things. Why doesn't eclipse, in all of its infinitely great(ish) glory, have an app? With this many coders in one forum, each knowing some coding language or another, hasn't an EO-ANDROID app, or an I-Eclipse app come out yet? I think it would be really cool to get on eclipse on my phone and have an app with similar structure to the facebook app be able to go through all the posts on eclipse and see what people have commented on posts that I made. (or posts I commented on.) And if there is such a thing why isn't it publicized? Seriously? Like that would be the greatest thing. just ya know, keep me posted with what you guys think.

I'm with spirits on this.

> When has eclipse ever been considered a normal game design community though. > > By the way, people are getting my intensions mixed up. This isn't because I was feeling down or whatever, I just felt like writing my life story. It probably has some morals or something in it. To quote one of the greatest english authors of our time; " you do you boo". I think this is some p cool shit right here.

dude. I get what your saying but your grammar is all over the place. for being in a mostly english speaking country, you kinda need to work on it. AN active project. yay, your project was approved and now THERE are these rules to follow. if these rules arent MET your project will be declined. However, I do like the rules and find them to be fitting.

I friggin love this. I dont plan to make my engine open source, but when I have my game up and running (and out of pre alpha, into beta) ill shoot you a copy of it. this just seems amazing. really. Note, this reminds me of zero punctuation on youtube. I don't know why, maybe because they're both review style things. But if you haven't heard of him check him out.

I just want to like all of these.

~~Seems like a lot of really cool gameplay. but the models could use a little more work, and the maps could seem less "flat"~~ did some more looking at it, and i think ill be making that my next investment after a new laptop lol.

> @[member="johnjohn"] "This fingers been in ya mam m8" THAT. THAT RIGHT THERE. the amount of "yes" that I am feeling right now. you have no idea.

After reading all of these i've realized that I'm super easily irritated. like really easily irritated.

> @[member="IFX"] which one is you? saw that one coming. the one on the right. I may look feminine, but I am male, all ways have been, and all ways will proceed to be. male.

The only selfies I have. they're both from like 4 or 5 months ago, but its me and my beautiful girlfriend. and then just me.  

Gotta say, this project is sick. the optional things being server side is just HUGE. seriously. You guys have GOT to keep working on it. I'm just blown away.
