When I was working in Schools we pwned the interwebs not a single game was played, there was this one kid (always one eh?) who thought he was clever bringing the games via E-Mail and saving to his personal area. He would brag to his friends (we heard him) and let them have it all the while we were just scanning user directorys taking down names. Then we replaced the game with a new swf file informing them they had had their internet privilidges removed for the year Oh how we all laughed - good times…

Well without mapping you dont actually have Game Content World Wise. Just a bunch of Documents and Discussion so its kinda easy to see why it is seen as a Top Priority.

MrMiguu have you ever been in a situation of being Mugged? I dont think you have because the options of A ) Use a Gun lands you in prison B ) Telling someone "Oh I think you should think about the consequences of your actions how about you Rob that person over there, heck Ill help you and it is much easier" is not going to persuade someone who is Mugging you because they WANT your cash. C ) Running away, based on your logic, those same muscles you use for running wont be as developed as the Dumb Mugger who has resorted to Muscle use rather than Intelligent Debate and thus you are not going to run very far. Real life solution tried and tested - Punch the sob in the eye and elbow to the nose THEN leg it. @Stephan what if its your own girl - rape isnt really an option if you refuse to show empathy when she having a sh1t day xD. @Gwen - I have tried to wear pink and it just darn fails on me -_- I did try Pink Timbs once though but it just wasnt working :( Also I normally have respect for peoples opinions but you sir - are an idiot. Alzheimers has nothing to do with not using your brain enough, they havent even 100% confirmed what does. Its a build up of protein that inteferes with the nerves within the Brain and even that isnt a sure fire thing its just something noticed in those who suffered with it. Exercising and staying fit prevents you from getting illnesses its vital to your bodies development and given the priority of Organs I would say the heart comes in as numero uno. Easy to lift weights and gain muscle? What ARE you smoking? Yes exercise benefits some people more than others but that is usually down to good genes or their training regime is effective to their body type. E.g me being a hard gainer makes it hard for me to put on muscle or fat so I train 25% cardio 75% weights, nothing easy about it :-\. Sports Players retire early for the same reason Teachers stop teaching, after a while doing a certain Job you no longer feel the rush or need to do it or ability to do it. Goal Keepers for example stop around the Age of 40's, retirement age is around 65, most start around the age of 15 making that a 25 year career with their wage amount would YOU work any longer than that? I think you seriously underestimate the work involved in training your body and that it in itself is a science of truly understanding yourself and its limits which is a form of intelligence in itself. You need both to fully function but some of your assumptions are the LAST thing I would expect to see leave your mouth. [/rant]

@MrMiguuâ„¢: > @Stephan: > > > I've got a six-pack by nature, but I'm not showing and presenting it like a Roman statue. For me appearance or strength has hardly anything to do with being a real man, it's rationality and intelligence that make a man. Emotions and empathy are the things that make you a woman. Although I agree with Aero that strength is important in case you have to defend yourself, but in most cases intelligence and rationality are the things having to fight or not depends on. > > > > Regards, > > Stephan. > > +100 manly pts for Epic Commenting. MrMiguu did you not say this was a bad thread based on the assumption that getting your chest out was childish. Something like : "So you guys consider having fun as showing a picture of your stomach? I don't know what the duck I've been smoking but that sounds pretty lame if you ask me. I see this topic has gone towards all of the insecure nerds here trying to justify their manhood by stating things that have happened to them in the past that would classify them as "tough." I see asshoels all the time on MySpace that make their main picture a picture of their "abs" and try to "get chicks." I also noticed you updated your little profile info thing to read: "I'm 15… ladies ;-)" Is it not just as lame to agree with someone who believes that 'having emotions and empathy - the ability to understand anothers emotions the properties of a woman' to be just as lame. I just do not comprehend how you shun one stereotype those who show their bodies are insecure nerds and yet you enforce a stereotype that is very much likely the reason we have such over rated machoism because other people like you will label them as women. We were given a Body and those who train it are rewarded with increased strength and ability - our entire existence has relied upon that fact who cares about people showing it off unless you in someway feel insecure why would such an act bother you? I mean really you come into the thread, read and you could have left surely? Ive first hand seen that Intellect can only take you so far, cos I would love to see someone talk themselves out of being Mugged. Rationality, Intelligence, Emotions, Empathy these are all properties of being Human nothing to do with Gender based stigma. To make an on-topic comment - if you have to ask if something makes you a man - then therein lies the answer.

In terms of a Community Project I would only offer my skills if it was being led by someone with experience in cracking a whip nothing does my head in more than weak leadership. If you know a Map should look a certain way in order to adhere to the Game Design then you cant spare a Mappers emotion and tell them otherwise. They will appreciate your honesty ALWAYS. I have yet to meet a Mapper or Programmer who values their skill development not enjoy hearing the Truth over fake compliments. Also since it is a Community project the Game Design would need to be one that is as simple as possible and allow multiple contribution with great pick up and play elements. One idea I had would be an Arena based PvP game, no questing or storytelling just out and out battling. If you have seen Battle Royale you will know where I am going with this. Every Session lasts for 30minutes, anyone who logs out forefits the match. A maximum of 30 players per session. A New Session kicks off every 15minutes. If you die you are returned to the "School" which is the holding area for those about to enter a Game. During this time you might form alliances and tactics but via PMs so others dont work out your tactics. If a game has gone on for 25minutes and there are still people alive a countdown begins which leads to the detonation of their Bomb Collar unless they reach the Deactivate Zone which has a key. This Key will disable the Bomb meaning the others left in game will die if said player leaves the "safe zone" the bomb reactivates meaning they must defend against the other 4 who will be looking to kill them for the key OR they could hand the key over to have them deactivate their bombs too however this will lead to less EXP. I have a whole GD Doc for this idea in better detail but I fear the Wall of Text slammer or tl;dr which crushes my spirit so Ill leave the watered down info there. Pluses: Will allow Mappers to Map random terrains to do battle on. Spriters can make lots of Clothing and Crazy Tools to use in game. Programmer can design features to make the game play more dynamic to make the environment come alive. Website can maintain a league of sorts etc.

I find there are two ways to keep a team afloat. Type one Carrot method - You have a real friendly easy going team that gets on and works well. However when stress hits eg a clash of personalities these teams normally suffer losses as they do not have the following mindset to cope with disciplining. Type two Stick method - You are strict, know what needs doing and keep the project very focused you will make personal sacrifices to get this game out and have no issue with telling other team members the truth if they step out of line, "I work for free" does not translate to "I can come and go as I please". The downfall of these teams is that usually people will get annoyed with this leader type and are no longer enjoying what they do. So I find the best is a mix of both, as someone who has mapped, programmed etc, nothing is more annoying than either of those types (I know that dont make much sense but you get my jist) who wants to produce some work only to have someone say "WOW THAT IS UBER" when you KNOW there are issues within that bit of work. Likewise noone likes to be put down 24/7 there is some good in everything. I think we would see a lot more games coming to surface if we didnt have mappers or programmers trying to be project leaders. You need people who have project management experience or experience delegating tasks to run a team that wont collapse. Producing the game comes after you solve that issue imo.

Hat or Troop?

Ok Ive got mine! :D

Gwen and her Poker Stories could you guys add a Poker Game to the forums that uses the userbase ^_^ I would love to play against ya'll xD. Oh and to me the best rush Ive ever had truthfully is a Sugar one. Nothing beats that hyperactivity and knowing that if you are pulled over or checked the worse thing in your system is Sugar! Pixie Sticks all the way RRROOOAORRRRR!

Hey wait for me! Let me just get my man bag. Can never have enough men in you. Edit : man in you* Gosh what a silly error ;D

Well I guess there are a lot of Good Arguements for what a Real Man is but I think the following sums it all up. You are what you eat. If you are going to eat vegies - you are a herbivore. If you are going to eat meat - you are a carnivore. If you are going to eat pu$$y - you are one. If you are going to eat men - welcome to manhood.

That video failed so much that the God of Fail denied responsibility for it. Thats right YOU know the God Im talking about :\

 Just Chilling

Who would be crazy enough to store personal information on their Computer O_O I never understood that. I keep my personal info offline in a usb stick that I wear around my neck.

go to lolshocksite.com If you can sit through ALL the videos in one sitting without wanting to Gag once. You are messed up in the head.

erm this is gonna sound messed up but I remember when I was younger I found 2 girls 1 cup slightly arousing T_T yeah I had/have issues lol.

no offense but I nearly just puked up my Pizza. T_T I wish I could have shown you my leg when I got a bloodclot! REVENGE!!!

Guns are bad mkay xD btw  told ya so.

I ripped my achilles heel once and because I was far out from any signal I had to drag myself within range of reception to get ambulance. Then when at Hospital I put up with multiple staff poking my now disconnected muscle with their finger because "they had never seen one ripped for real before" following that I put up with an agonising couple of months being on crutches travelling to a different city up and down stairs, trains and within School walls teaching. Didnt pull one day off sick nor did I use painkillers. Oh and I have around 10% body fat and built like a brick s.house :P

Thats the thing I dont get though, why would it need to be triggered in the attack script. If you wanted a weapon whose script only affected your attacking situations you could just store the effects in a putvar file. E.g I equip the Mighty Helmet of the Ancients This means whenever I fight on a Map that the Ancient Race used to live on - all my attacks are increase by 200% damage and my defence by 400%. In the PutVar File called ScriptedHelmet Effects I would have. [Mighty Helmet of the Ancients] A=200 D=400 M=20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25 Where 20-25 are the Map Numbers. Then you place it in an appropiate place such as OnMapLoad.ess a check that scans if Player is equipped with such an item and execute accordingly. This is a quick write up and not efficiently written or thought through but I think it could be effective. Personally I would just have Scripted Tiles activate for certain Items/Weapons/Tools etc. But each to their own xD Oh and off-topic thanks for the defence in another thread ^_^ EDIT : Dammit Baille! YamYam beat you to it and you beat me to it T_T darn you all lol thanks Baille your tutorial makes much more sense I type way too much T_T EDIT EDIT : I think the main thing is having an Item such as Scripted Item that behaves like equipment showing the PaperDoll attached. Which is not currently in ES. If you set an item to say Armor and then equip it and then edit it to be Scripted Item itll crash. A scripted helmet wouldnt have that problem and would still behave like a scripted item type is what he is getting at I believe.

Yeah I understood fully, my post is the answer you need do you understand it? The following might not make much sense but it might beat trying to understand the long lines of English I posted. Ik denk dat je bedoelt dat je wilt om een nieuw type van punt bv op het moment dat u te maken Helm, benen, die, indien Paperdoll Armor is zal blijken Paperdoll hun tegenhangers. Wat u wilt doen is een nieuwe post Type zoals: Scripted Helmet, Scripted Legs, Scripted Armor. Dus dat wanneer je een item ingesteld op een van die het geeft je een optie om een script te hechten aan het, terwijl het nog steeds blijkt Paperdoll tegenhanger. Op het moment als u een post als scripted Post fungeert meer als een Potion en je kunt niet uit te rusten is. Dus met dat zei je nodig zou hebben om de bron te bewerken en de gebruikte code voor het script items met die van een equippable Post als Helmet, Armor, Benen, enz. te combineren Dat of u kunt het item in te stellen als Helmet, benen of Armor etc dan in de OnEquip Script van Server Scripts je kon een cheque van bepaalde items te doen en toepassen van de gewenste functies. Apologies if I made a mockery of Dutch… YamYam could you explain what you mean when you say the script would need to run the whole time? Depending on how you did it you could place a check in the scripted item to check if its equipped or not when called, if it is then it goes back to inventory if it is not it is equipped and said script executed. This can be done with Scripted Items, the area I have not tested however is whether it will show PaperDoll with it.

Gamma what language do you speak? Could you perhaps explain it in your native language and Ill take a lookie. I think you mean you want to create a new type of Item e.g At the moment you have Helmet, Legs, Armor which if PaperDoll is on will also show their Paperdoll counterparts. What you want to do is make a new Item Type like : Scripted Helmet, Scripted Legs, Scripted Armor. So that when you set an Item to one of those it gives you an option to attach a script to it whilst it still shows Paperdoll counterpart. At the moment if you set an item as scripted Item it acts more like a Potion and you can not equip it. So with that said you would need to edit the source and combine the code used for scripted items with that of an equippable Item like Helmet,Armor, Legs etc. That or you could set the item as Helmet, Legs or Armor etc then in the OnEquip Script of Server Scripts you could do a check for certain items and apply the functions you want. NOTE : You could even edit the ScriptedItem.ess script so that when you click on it it will equip / unequip - Im little busy at moment to test if that would still show PaperDoll counterpart but your best, cleanest best would be Source edit Im so sorry I do not have time to post code for it atm only the logic.

Like I said - moving on - the untested opinion of one against the tested opinion of 15+, think I know who I will listen to :) To those who placed registrations yesterday and today if you happen to be checking here, you should now all be up and running :)
