Why isn't anyone posting? READ, FOOLS!!!!

Well, If Project Candlelight isn't as feasible as I am hoping, I might adopt it Tongue

Storyline?

...

Nah.

But now that I think about it, Why not use a Shining Messanger? That way you can keep the game fullscreen and talk with your friends. And I've a good idea to go with it: Use SILC. It's secure, and Open Source. All you have to do Is manipulate some SILC client's source, and you're home free.

I'd love to program in C++. It seems that it's a good solid language. The only problem is the stupid godforsaken libraries! I spent $40 on a book to learn it, only to find out that it's totally uncompatible with what I can get ahold of, AKA, having no libraries. The GCC supposedly has libraries, but I can't get sufficient documentation on them! If possible, I'd use GCC, but it doesn't seem to be possible.

Even If we program on the Amiga, we'd be fooling around with the different languages. The only reason that I said that we should have the Amiga 3000 as our target platform is because it's gonna be the same EVERYWHERE. Even the newer Amigas, AmigaOne computers that don't even have the same archetecture, will be able to run them. And with Amiga Forever, Amirage, or UAE, Every computer can play this game, despite differences.


PS: Amiga's still alive: Atari is dead forever. Plus, the ST was their "best," but it still isn't as good as the Amiga. And MOD sounds better then anything Atari ever turned out.

I was going to use it for Project Candlelight, but then i realized that It isn't really ment for gaming, OR FOR WORKING EITHER!!!! DIE, MATSUNICHI!!!!!!!!!

I've been thinking; we need to develop Project Candlelight in a more Homogenious environment. At first I thought we might use the Pocket PC, but then I realized that it isn't a good gaming platform, first because of certain Button limitations, then by it's lack of durability.

[TROLL][RANT](MY POCKET PC BROKE 5 MINUTES AFTER THE WARRENTY. IF ONE SINGLE THING GOES WRONG WITH IT, THEN THE WHOLE STINKING THING GOES BAD!!!! AND YOU LOSE A MINIMUM OF $220!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)[/RANT][/TROLL] *cough*

Then I  thought of a slightly less modern approach. Why not use an Amiga? I personally own an Amiga 3000 (Although anyone reading my blog or my Amiga 3000 Questions topic in NFG.2Y.net's forum will know that I need a keyboard and mouse). All Amigas are basically the same, but with upgrades. I think that It would be best to program for the Amiga 3000 as it wasn't the last "Classic Amiga" and most will be able to meet the requirements of one. Even if someone has an older Amiga, they could probibly get an enhancer board to meet the requrements. There is even still a large user base. They are still manufacturing Amigas, though now the archetecture has changed, but the OS is still backwards compatible.

Programming for the Amiga would allow us to prove the modern computer industry wrong (yet again, I admit, but those manufacturers have thick skulls). Plus, since the amiga has been emulated on allmost all platforms, Still every computer will be able to play it! A Bonus for programming for the Amiga will be a strong support from the Amiga Community (and trust me, that's a big community).

Please concider this option. Recompilation for other systems is almost always difficult, especially if we don't use a standardized language. PowerPCs are costly to emulate, and windows emulation is almost impossible if you don't have a fast computer or the funds for a VM. Amiga programming would allow us to make our game worldwide!

Pocket PCs are crap.

If almost anything breaks on it, the whole thing is rendered useless.

the sempron being a 32-bit processor is prof that i'm misinformed. that means that SOMEONE HAS BEEN LYING TO ME!!!!!!!

Anyways, I scrapped the idea of a new computer for the idea of a new PC. Pocket PC, that is.

it ended up not helping me as much as I thought it would, though. Contrary to the popular belief, the IPAQ version of Blender doesn't work. and worst of all, there isn't a good mod tracker for PPCs. The only thing I can do with it is make some documents with Pocket Word (which I see as better then the desktop version because of a handwriting recognizer and easier addition of audio to documents; the microphone is right on the top). However, i will find a good tracker and a good 3d modeler!!!!

I'm sorry for the absence. I've had some electrical problems in my house. I won't be back for a while. please wait for me.

nice, but I see some problems with your settings. The first is in the textures. if you put too many textures or have overly detailed textures, they will have a very large space in memory. Also, some textures reveal their repeating nature far too easily, which is a big no-no (and that's a word that I don't use often). The second is in the decorations. in your last picture, the elevated platforms look too seperate from the rest. (your rendering also has some rather regurgitated-looking shades of rainbow). remember to blend everything together as if they're the same thing.

OK, I'll see what I can do. As you have seen by my handsome foot example, I can make things in 3D

mostly that, but there'll be a decent  video card and Wireless networking (G) card and a floppy and CD burner/DVD-ROM drive. and a recycled 6GB HD. I'm only hoping that my stuff works with it. At least I won't have to pay Ubuntu over $100 for a 64 bit OS like Microsoft does.
