I'll be applying, too. Look out for my topic in the custom versions later, just publishing the repository.

> Purpose of the Show Off board always was to present your work, hear few honest comments, some valid criticism and a lot of liez you need to learn to filter. And by filter I'm not saying ignore… if enough people tell you the project lack creativity, maybe you should reconsider - maybe you already learned what you could from it and it's time to work on something that could some day end up being something valuable, because this might not, and while learning experience is always good, it might as well come from making something creative. Oh, I know fully well that this project isn't creative, new, and, yes, you're right, I might as well learn from making something creative, and I chose not to. I might not appear to, but I am not ignoring the [valid] criticism. I never really started this to learn anything, I just wanted to take a short break from working on certain things, and it was a refreshing little side-project. I'm pretty much done with anything I wanted to refresh on, and I don't think there's much point in putting up a DL link, as nobody really cares.  Anyway, if I ever do decide to make this serious, I'd probably re-code the thing in C and SDL, I'd redo the graphics with Anosora, and we'd actually develop the concepts into something that's viable as a game.  EDIT: > What the hell is wrong with all of you. These guys started a project for fun and wanted to show off some of their stuff. Why the heck are you posting bum candy everywhere? Its just a game they started for the heck of it who cares if its original or not all it needs to be is fun Hm, can't believe I never noticed your post, but yeah, nice to know you're the third person to actually know the motive. xD

The incidental thing is, I'm not even complaining about their posts, and they're not even criticising the game itself, they're just taking my posts literally to try and make me look like a lemon. xD (And by them, I don't mean Fuu or Deino.) I never said I didn't want comments. I said that this isn't a serious project. They then took that further to make me seem as if I wanted no posts at all. ¬_¬

> So now you don't want us to post at all? Only to think to ourselves if we want to play or not? Haha, you're so funny. > You're going to go so far. Pretty sure I've repeatedly stated this isn't a serious project.

> if you only want people to say if they;re going to play it or not. Oh, I never meant it like that, I just said that to make Relly be quiet, 'cause frankly, I can't be bothered to argue. Pretty sure I said "choose", not "say". "Either choose to play, and that's great, or just don't play at all. It doesn't affect me, whatever you choose."

> So don't even bother posting things until it's done. > > It's a waste of time. Who cares if it's a waste of time, it's fun to make. What part of "not serious" do you not understand? ¬_¬

> look for InitialiseGUI, and moveable GUI is hard for certain ppl. Deathbeam could do it but it would drop the FPS like fukin 20 Uhm. I even gave you my GUI module. What are you on about? O_o

Similarly, more or less.

Has it occurred to any of you guys that I don't give a damn whether it's original or not, and that I'm just doing this for fun? It seems only Whack here understands our actual motive to just make something. If I was trying to be original, I wouldn't have repeatedly stated explicitly on the last page that this is effectively our own try at a Terraria/Junk Jack game. Neither would I use Visual Basic 6 or Direct3D8, that I quickly ripped from EO, 'cause I was lazy. Either choose to play, and that's great, or just don't play at all. It doesn't affect me, whatever you choose.

Probably. Just steering clear for a while.

Uh, I think I'll disappear for a short while (about 3/5 days?). Just generally depressed about real-life stuff, and annoyed by some members here. That's all. Seeya.

> Looks good. Thank you. > However, I think the blocky look is very disturbing. Define disturbing, that's fairly offputting to say. xD > The logo (specially the text) looks non-AA, which looks weird on a dynamic background. Fixing as I type. > Get rid of the checker look on your top bar, instead, back it a gradient from black to dark gray, adding a 1px bottom border as well (make sure it looks right). Mm, I knew I wasn't the only person who was unsure of it. I'll try out a gradient.

> me too, thats gonna be cool, now thats a project i would like  Ahem. Anyway, cool system, I can see player housing, and the likes used very well with this.

Someone search it on Bulbapedia or Serebii for me, and show it to Joyce, it's blocked on this school network.

My, it's taken almost a year and a half just to showcase a menu? o_o

Why should we have to ask around, to find out details of your game? You should, as an obvious standard, post links, videos, images, etc, yourself, not expect us to do so, otherwise, what's the point of showcasing your game? >_>

No, they're not. I think an obvious indication would be that they're on a separate directory.  And, thanks.

 Website link: [http://glaciate.net/](http://glaciate.net/) Forum link: [http://glaciate.net/forums/](http://glaciate.net/forums/) This is just my site for my team, and, I'm in the process of designing stuff. Opinions would be great, and please don't flame without reason! The site is coded with just plain HTML5, CSS3, PHP, and jQuery (Nivo.) The theme is just the default myBB theme that I've modified to fit around my site design. I'm aware of many nuances, but even if they're obvious, please, point them out to me, to make sure I've missed nothing! In the near future, I'll be integrating the forum to The Tower, Time's Hourglass, Onyxmon, and a few other things I should keep quiet, so it's worth signing up now.

> So this is basically a horrible remake of minecraft? I fail to see how this is a "remake" of Minecraft. If anything, it's a "remake" of Terarria, and Junk Jack. Don't forget, there were many games of the same/similar genre, before Minecraft, surprisingly! *gasp!*

Yep, given that all they do is dig down at the moment (Or rather, start from a point underground, and dig up), and have a 1-in-5 chance of generating. I'll reduce it to something like 1-in-8/10, and I'm also changing chasm generation around by quite a bit, to be more natural looking, and less…straight.  As for the chasms near the chunks, I didn't notice that, and that should've been obvious to me, but hey, thanks for telling me. As for the ~

> The trees/wood have far more contrast than the ground. The wood doesn't tile nicely. After an MMO roguelike, I expected something more interesting from you. Either way, good luck and all. It's a demo. Not even an alpha. Stuff'll change, and stuff obviously aren't done. > If you stand on the far left edge of a block you just go through it. Er, like I said, collission's botched, mainly because I did the bounding boxes rather stupidly. xD I'll be changing it all soon. 

> This so far and I am almost sure has not been done already and probably never will. First the way the eclipse GUI works. Second it's way to much work which would take a long time to make it work with every resolution . I to wanted to do this a while ago but it's a bit pointless. You can try but you will probably rip all the hair on top of your head before you accomplish this [hint] know don't take me wrong if you get a bit of experience you probably will do it  *facepalm*. It is one of THE MOST simplest things to do. I posted something on some other thread on this board that should provide it, just look for that. Lucky you, I found it for you.

New demo here, since the previous updates, I've added chasms, and world saving/loading. http://services.glaciate.net/file_host/host/5361b6785a64982f735408f1226be1d1.rar Now, if you see the changelog, you'll find: > Known Bugs: > > - Trees that generate close to the edge of chunks have their leaves trimmed off. > > - Passing the player posx 1023 makes the sprite invisible.

If you experience a problem that's not there, please, tell me.

I'm not refering to your choice of interface (although, I do believe it was added to CSDE for demonstration purposes; you're not actually meant to use it.), I was referring to the graphics that SirBernard posted, although, he removed it now, so, at least nobody will be misled to believe that they can just freely use it.
