@Janusson183:
> I never knew what necro posting was
Which means you never bothered to read the rules, even after multiple warnings. -
@Xtrea:
> So yes graphics are gonna suck ass but its gonna add to comedy feature :D
No it's not. It's just going to be childish. 'OMG look at how bad these drawings are, isn't it so FUNNY? Hahahaha, I drew a willy on his head'. That's the kind of shit my 6 year old brother finds funny.
The idea that shitty graphics is all you need to make something funny is actually an insult to those who practise the craft of comedy. -
@Wing♣:
> Are you really new? You understand this community too much!
It's not the community. It's just people. There seems to be far too many kids who come here expecting people to act differently than how they would in real life.
Eclipse is pretty much just a really awesome house party. If you act like a pretentious dick you'll get kicked out. If you're being an idiot we'll tell you. If your stuff is shit we'll say so.
Far too many people assume that they have a right to be here. They don't. But if you come here to have a good time and learn something along the way then you'll fit in just fine and make friends that last a lifetime. I've known the people I've met through doing game design longer than pretty much everyone I know in real life. -
Those two-tone gradients always turned me off.

Change BltPlayer and BltNPC to run off 8 frames.
Add checks for death and attacking. You'll need to add a timed event for attacking so you can switch frames. -
@Anna:
> >Using Firefox
> >not turning OFF those annoying squiggly lines
> I thought you were better, Robin.
They're not annoying, they're useful. Most of the posts I make are when I'm heavily inebriated. Without them my posts are full of typos.
@Jungle:
> Were you abused as a child? I'm being completely honest here.
Certainly not your definition of the term, but I had a very, very different upbringing than you. Don't compare me to your own unnatural middle-class white American standards. That kind of shit means fuck all when you can't afford to feed your family. -
Go look around the various Winsock API classes online.
-
Add an NPC exception to the spell casting & buffering procedures.

Seems Captain Obvious commented your code. ;] -
@kaizen101:
> do you think, its better if the server engine have two or more parts to maximize its output… one send combat information and accounts info, the other animation information, so that they work less and give better output
 -
@kaizen101:
> try check my uploaded file its cs:de you might learn something about what you want an attack animation…animate as he attack, you dont to use it because its buggy, but you can learn something from it and the alignment of char.
Learning from broken code is fucking useless. -
Locking this for obvious reasons.
If you want blind praise go make a finger painting and get your mother to put it on the fridge.
The show-off board is for constructive criticism to help you improve. You have no desire to improve but to be praised. I don't like that kind of spoilt attitude. Grow up a bit and then come back, -
@Yumi-chan:
> You guy should play it! It have less building and troop than the offline version, but it is fun!!!
Why play an inferior version? Get the original. -
The bots! They're _learning_!
-
Way too many people have trouble adding new frames. Why not change all the '5's to a global constant so people don't get confused in the future? I might end up doing that with my shit.

@Scott:
> I'm working hard to improve my self in this area, ever since I started working with eclipse this has become extremely apparent to me and is making work for me harder but I still was not happy with anything but those commands in the end. Maybe I'm just to picky?
You'll learn in time. Took me a good couple of years to finally make something which was actually good. Just go around and look at all the best interfaces you can find. Read up on opinion articles and the like.
For now you can just steal all the existing control styles from Origins and re-use those.
@Scott:
> Thank you, I enjoy helping others develop games and this is a great way for me to bring that to more people. It does end up taking me awhile to release things because I do try to not sit in front of my computer everyday, but I do enjoy making them so I don't expect to stop anytime soon.
You'll end up being one of the best developers around, then. The only way to get good with game design is to surround yourself with talented people. I was never that good when I started, but I always helped other people when they needed it. In the end I learnt how to recognise errors without even reading the code.
I met most of the developers I work with now through my early years as the forum's residential debugger. From them I learnt about all the other aspects of game design like graphics, feel and… well, design. -
@Jungle:
> Try Chrome.
You're an idiot. Network was set up to work with IE. Doesn't work with anything else.
Telling me to try something is most retarded thing you can ever possibly do. The only way I'll ever concede defeat is if I've literally tried everything. There's a reason you never see me asking for help. -

@Xlithan:
> I think he's trying to say that he wants a feature where if you die a maximum amount of times your character is unplayable. Like Hardcore Diablo 2 perhaps?
He said when people get to level 100 they have 40,000 lives. Unless he already has a feature in place this would make no sense at all. -
Being able to find things in the source code is a skill itself. You need to learn how to trace function and packet routes.
For now you simply need to know that all looped processing logic is handled in modServerLoop. Go through the main loop function and find out where the regen is handled. -

@Nic:
> and should only be used by someone who knows how to use visual basic.
It shouldn't be used by anyone. It's meant as a source you can pick apart and steal the best bits from. The entire graphics engine needs a re-write to work at all on plenty of computers.
The source branched off during its pre-bridged period which was notoriously buggy. It's only over the last 6 months or so that the engine has matured to its current standard. -

@Whack:
> I have this in my game, I'll do it for a price.
Release it as a tutorial you cheap bastard. This shit isn't worth a single penny. -
For a while? You have every single console game ever played, all of which can be emulated just fine without a GPU.
Go boot up Battle Toads.

> @eckhart… You people are driving me nuts... I don't get it you say you want simple, I show you something simple
> and you say it' now boring. I feel like the creativity was zapped from me.
Nothing you've done so far is creative. All you've done is take designs from other Eclipse members and mess them up.
@Crest:
> I'm not satisfied with my own work lately,
Good, because no one else is either. Learn to actually be honest with yourself and critique your work like everyone else.
@Crest:
> im 17 and im trying to impress people who have been at this for way longer than I have.
You're not going to get any sympathy from me, champ. If you don't know common sense by the time you're 17 then it's a problem with you, not us.
@Crest:
> I just need… Inspiration. Something to help me think of a good idea. I keep looking at all these logos and designs and posts but it just doesn't make me feel satisfied with my own work, not even a bit.
Of course it doesn't. Your work is bad. You shouldn't feel good about it. That's why you should be trying to improve yourself.
@Crest:
> I mean I know it's not great and all but I should be atleast motivated a bit in my own work.
The fact that you still don't realise just how horrific your stuff is leaves me worried and scared. Does your ego really leave you this blind?
