I think half of my time building my game I spent just trying to find resources where I didn't have to worry about getting copy right claim or if I wanted to change to charging for my game some how I wouldn't have to be worried about all of my profits going bye bye.
Nice of you to add these. -
Thats pretty cool you got it in steam and playable from a browser. Can I be a little jealous?

@Mohenjo-Daro Thank You! It's Amazing!

Found a topic with a different runtimes file
"Eclipse Engines
To use, download the engine, extract it, and install the Runtimes"
That fixed my issue... -
I'm on Windows 10, generally a 64 bit system, laptop.
I have used the "install_eo_runtimes" file I have used in the past.
I don't know if I ever got Eclipse up and running on this laptop to be honest.
Server seems to start up fine, but when I try to open my client I get
Title or error : Launcher
Run-time error `429`:
ActiveX component can't create object. -
Just wanted to stop by and say I'm really happy to see this place is still around. Please keep doing what you guys are doing. Was happy to see my game page was still up and a lot of other things.

Hey guys,
So....... I have a son now! Don't forget to wish me happy fathers day when that comes around lol... I went to mess around on my game and try to see if I still remembered how to do... well..... anything, right off the bat ran into some run-time errors on windows 10. So I'm going to hit up the help area and see if anyone can help me. -

Oh cool Liam. Neat to know you use the language professional.
@everyone else, I've really been enjoying programming and I have a lot of you here to thank for that. The 2D eclipse program has helped me a lot, even though I didn't learn how to code my own game like I really intended initially. This community inspired me me to learn coding. Thank you everyone. -
Thanks a lot for your feed back guys. Really helped me out a lot. I'm surrounded by people that can program entire 2D video games from straight memory.

While I'm programming I'll generally have to have to look at one of my old projects where I have done something like what I have forgot or google something like "in java how to create new text file in specific folder"; even though, I've probably done something like that 40 times. I know there are different levels of talents among people, but I feel like before I consider myself a decent programmer I should be able to do a certain amount of things before I have to look it up on google or whatever. I don't know what do you guys think? Currently a little disappointed with myself its been a while (years) and I still can't draw graphics or set up a server without following some tutorial.

I think any one that has talked to me personally has heard me say something like…
" You know I like Eclipse, and I appreciate what it does, but I wish I could make my own 3D game. By the time I'll be able to make my own 3D game there will be some big new thing like actual Virtual Reality, for holographic gaming; where then, no one will really care to here about my game."
So of course, I look at this and my jaw just drops... I'm seriously that impressed. Personally I'm not even sure why you looked at my game at all. This is really impressive and I'll want to ask some simple questions about your complex game when we get the chance to talk! -
@'BeNjO':
> I could host it for you, add me on skype xbenjo
Ok I'll send you an invite sometime soon; at the very least, so we can talk first. I forget what my name is on Skype atm (as its been ages since I been on there) so I'll send you a PM afterwards, letting you know I sent you an invite and why =) Thanks for the support, I really do appreciate the thought at least! -
Couple of changes in my life. Glad to say things are still going well, still have the same job. I was actually promoted and took on some other responsibilities. Its nice to see that this is a job that clearly has the opportunity to move up and really all that is needed is the willingness to learn a new task or challenge.
I have touched up on my programming as of lately; however, to be honestly have a long way to go again.
For example: I was able to draw graphics and use listeners to move a sprite across a map and I understood it completely. I also started to get the hang of Streams and Sockets and some other basic networking. Now I am struggling to understand a simple program I made for my job that scans a text file and searches only for the info we need so its a 2 page report instead of a 32 page report.
It looks really bad for Endless Waltz currently, but there is a little something glowing inside me that makes me really sad to say I have quit. I can't say I have quit on the idea of working on the game again. Not yet at least. Anyways - I still peek around here every once in a while, and I will be an adult and tell you guys for sure if I have quit. Its been really nice seeing some people I care a lot about are also still here. Except JC… Seriously ... Robin was so much cooler....
Ah! also... It would be really nice if some has any hosting ideas for my server. I think that was the only reason why the game got taken off line. Very least I could easily put the game up as it was (everyone would probably have to start a new character v.v ) and I could work on it as it was. Probably wouldn't be too hard. Simple to use, cheap, safe, and fast..... you know... non-existent? Shoot me a PM, if you got some decent ideas. -
@'Mohenjo:
> Yes! :D You're the best Lel lol, I loved playing your game
Wow! thanks that means a lot ! -
@'Riften':
> Good to see that the game could possibly be still alive. ^_^
My biggest focus after graduating was getting a decent career and learning how to do that. By the time I have got to where I am now. I know my job and am learning other parts of it past my job to make it a career I have forgot so much of my programming knowledge. Luckly I have a job where I can do things I like while doing my job. So I am relearning. -
Just so you guys know what I am up to…...
I finished my 2 year degree and got an AA.
The programming class I took still had a lot of students that were doing their final assignments in "pseudo code" ( fake code)
So I guess I wasn't really suppose to walk out of that class programming in java like I did. I made an A in that class, it was pretty easy, and I've found I really like programming.....but the more I learn about programming....I find even more I don't know! lol
so..... I am still learning Java. I have come a long way from just making procedural code, to object oriented. Finally touching GUI's, Networking, and Drawing graphics. I really doubt I'll be a master any time soon, there are a lot of tricks to learn... Even thou it's in Java, I'm still learning a lot about how things happen in VB6 ( what my engine runs on ).
The point of this was to let you guess know, that even thou the production of this game has paused for so long, I think I am going to continue this path of learning until I feel it will fully help in the development of my game. -
Yeah every time I learn something new I go back to my old projects and try to clean up my work that was already graded.
I'm doing good in the class now. I am two weeks a head of the class schedule and all A's. -
Thanks a lot for the encouragement!
-
Its still impressive. Especially from the viewpoint or skill level that I stand at.
I can make you a calculator on command prompt which is a little like saying " I can draw you a mean stick figure." -
> DOS programs in Java… Do you mean Java command line programs? Lol, a batch file uses DOS, I don't think Java does.
yeah that is what I meant lol -
It's got to the point where when I program, when I run into an annoying bug…. I can't stop working on it, I HAVE TO FIX IT!
I've really started to dive head in to programming...... and I have to say.....
Holy cow all you programmers out there are really under appreciated. Really want to say sorry to Robin.
I can understand how come you would want to move on to better and bigger things now.
Dax... was making his own OS.... omg I really had no idea how cool that was or what it meant until now.
Wow.... now I have to admit I really miss when this place was filled with all kinds of programmers trying to promote the idea of making bigger and better changes. .
So shout out to all you programmers! -
I'm actually learning how to program.
I am starting to work a head of the class now and I have stepped away from pseudo-code and I am now* making DOS programs in Java, things like rock, paper, scissors, and making a slot machine simulator. I know how to use decision structures, and loops, but have not learned arrays yet. Just finished with input validation.
I still don't know know exactly what all the terms mean. like boolean I really don't know exactly…..
I know the basic terms, I know what a variable is, and a method and the difference between a module and a function and such.
My goal is to finish the chapter about arrays, make three programs with arrays, and then to try to know just as much in Visual Basics as I know in Java. -
This was just 1 part of three parts I had to turn in.
There was an error found ( my professor made a program to read pseudocode and check it for errors lol)
The program found that I forgot to declare assessmentValues ( this is so great I actually understand what that means! Before this class I had no idea about anything with programming.)
Combining all three parts of the assignment, I made a A, but just barely. -
We have only been taught some very bare basics like variables and modules. We have not yet been taught how to actual write and run a program yet.
I was hoping someone here with programming knowledge would look at this and tell me what they think.
Property Tax
It is suppose to make use of modules, ask the user for actual value of land, and call a module to calculate assessment value, and display the result, then call another module to calculate the property tax and display that result.
How does this look to you guys?
```
Module main()
Declare Real actualValue1
Display "Enter actual value of land."
Input actualValue1
Declare Real assessmentValues
Call getAssessmentValue (actualValue1)
Declare Real propertyTaxation
Call PropertyTaxation (assessmentValues)
End Module
Module PropertyTaxation(Real assessmentValues)
Declare Real propertyTaxation
Set propertyTax = (assessmentValues / 100) * 0.64
Display "Property tax is:", propertyTaxation
End Module
Module getAssessmentValue(Real value)
Set assessmentValues = value * 0.60
Display "Assessment value is:", assessmentValues
End Module
```

Part of me said " I shut my computer down though! That should be the same thing! I freaking reinstalled my runtimes! I even got the crappy Direct X and updated it! I am getting sick of this! aaaaaannnnnnnnddddddd....... here we have smart ol' JC saying just reset your computer........ whatever...... I'll try literally just resetting my computer"
So now I want to know why shutting my computer down and leaving it for half an hour to an hour alone didn't work but simply resetting did...... Oh and JC if you're still there at all reading this old topic..... bite me..... Robin was always better than you and I considered him my best friend! #insidejoke
