  1. Or just pre-render the trees on various backgrounds to keep the effect intact.

    You learn much more working in a restricted environment than a limitless one. Once you've managed to get advanced graphical techniques working in a 24-bit environment going over to 32-bit is a damn dream, believe me.

    The shit you learn doing things the hard way is always useful.

    > No, you're just terrible. First off, a banner is not a logo. Learn the difference. Secondly, ripping a copyrighted image and shoving ugly text onto a terrible background does not make for happy viewers.

    Sure it does. That's pretty much all my work ever. You just need to do it nicely and people love it.

    My spelling has been awful recently. I'm forced to use IE as my office doesn't like Firefox's shitty proxy settings. I get authentication spam all the time.

    I never realised how much I relied on those squigly red lines to point out the obvious. I'm having to actually proof read properly, now.
  4. I don't see why you couldn't have pulled together a GUI yourself even if no one did offer to help.

    As far as I remember the default EO GUI had a generic black box for these kinds of menus. You could even use GDI controls for it.

    Still, seems like a solid system. I think you did right by keeping it simple. That's what a base system should do. Glad to know there are still other people around who are willing to work on things simply to release them.

    It's also rare for someone to develop a system that actually works as advertised. Keep it up. I'll keep an eye on your work.

    > ROBIN? PAYED?

    We're talking about my real job here, not Eclipse.

    As it stands I make money from both.

    I think I used one in a fight once. Does that count?
  6. Pretty much. Games require 3D acceleration. To get the required amount of power for a high-end release you need a dedicated card.

    Either spend the money on a graphics card or do what we all did when we were dirt poor - ZSNES netplay Battle Toads and play some old classics until you're in a position to play newer releases.

    When I first played Oblivion 7 years ago I needed to run a patch which turned off all pixel shaders. It looked like arse. Still played the shit out of it.

    > Robin, How about a drug infested weekend at your place! WHAT SAY YOU!?

    I take it I'd be buying? xD

    Although to be fair you can stay high for a long time on a £50 buy. I think I only went through 2.2 grams of it over the last 3 days, and that was high 24/7.

    Granted £200 a month on weed is a bit much…
  8. It's called Google. Top result.

    VB6 uses BBGGRR rather than RRGGBB. Simply swap the first and last hex values and replace the prefix (#) with '&H00'.

    Please at least try and fucking search for something. Every time I have to Google something for you I think less of you.

    #291c14 becomes &H00141c29

    Write a converter if you're lazy or just cache RGB().

    > duck the east coast.. $20 a gram for dispensary quality. (Well for people who buy it)

    Wow, really? Even in USD our cost is only like $15/gram. It's rare for America to be more expensive than us considering our salaries are like double what they are over there.

    I suppose that's the result of the war on drugs.

    > Well i used to smoke weed as a religion… But then it got took expensive in the UK and I'm lucky if I get 1.8g (UK £20 standard bag....) a fortnight -.-

    Eh, price has gone up with everything else. Friend and I get £10/gram here. I end up getting £50 a week.
