$100 then i can stick as many as I want on there.

Speaking of which i'm going to make an actual game for it so it feels worth it.

Ask Luis to vouch for you. Thats what I did.

Maybe...

Don't worry he ignored me to... D:

Hey. I know I've been pretty inactive recently but I'm going to try to post in here every now and then from now on, like I've promised about four times now.

I messaged Wade several months ago asking to get my name capitalized, though he hasn't replied yet. It's a pity, since having my username without the capitals looks really bad.

So many server issues, I almost double posted in the awards thread and I think 3 people double posted on the last page (including me) :o

Hasn't replied yet?
I wish i was as hopeful as you are, lol.
I never expect Tom or Wade to even read any of my PM's...

I PM'd Wade a loooong time ago about updating the link to
the Collab Rules in the BBS rules to suit the change, but,
i don't think that's going to happen anytime soon. :]

I'm here to interrupt any conversation with my first Flash.It's from 2005.

By the way,it's scene-by-scene.

That's some pretty intense FBF there. You haven't improved much since then though.

kidding.

I honestly agree. :(

Is this a bad thing to do if i do it?

Alright, i had a game that was supposed to be done but my coder isn't answering me anymore. I've sent him plenty of texts, PMs, calls, emails, myspace; everything. He's not answering. He's the coder of the game and i've had all of my art completed several months ago. Is it bad if i remove his code completely and get a new coder to code it for me? I've sent him so many emails and everything talking about this but he doesn't answer. I've worked so hard so i'm giving up on this game.

It's probably cause he hates you.

jk

Since you've worked so hard on this definately get a new coder, if one guy leaves don't just give up. Two times the sorta charm!

Depends on how bad you want the game done...
do you really want to see this game finished?
If so, get a new coder. And quick.

If you don't really care, keep the coder you have now
and the project will descend into FLA Hell,
which, of course we all know, is the place where all
unfinished flash games/movies go...

Get 'em the boot. :]

This is the same guy you've been having trouble with weeks ago? If so, go for it.. how far did he get with the code?

At 12/7/08 07:14 PM, Thomas wrote: I honestly agree. :(

No, you've improved. I'm not going to suck your cock and say you're a god at Flash, but that last game you submitted is pretty solid.

I'm really bad at it though...

Everybodys thoughts on the game of mine.

Yeah is been a long ass time and he coulda had it done but mostly it's been excuses. Is this a bad thing to do? Like it isn't considered stealing right? I mean i'd completely remove his code and get a new coder. My art i'm very proud of and i wanted to see this game done.

Hardly a bad thing to do at all. You have all of the rights to your animations and art, and if you've tried all you can do to get him to respond and he hasn't, then move on. He shouldn't have any say what you do or don't do with your art, so by all means seek out another more reliable coder.

Thanks a lot senti. Btw I'm typing this post from this my iPod touch. Amazing. Anyway, school tommorow. Night all.

Most coders I know dont like to mull through or touch anyone elses code. Its kinda the equivalent of wearing someone elses underwear... kinda hot, but no.

Thats part of the reason the store took so long to release. Rob redid it all after Ross left.

The Dumbest Invention of All Time

LMAO

Incredible this was ever made, actually, it's incredible this was ever even thought of. If someone bounced this idea off of you, what would you say? I'd think someone would point out how stupid it is somewhere along the lines of production... it's like the one bad invention in a million that got through, lmao. I seriously challenge anyone to find something dumber.

It's not such a bad thing for coders to learn to work together though, it will help in the future if you go on to become a proper programmer - working alone isn't very viable :P It would be much better if the other programmer was cooperating though, haha.

That wasnt really the point i was trying to make. I just meant if you had a scenario where someone had half of a mark-up worth of code and told you to just continue it. I'd assume that in some cases that would take longer than just starting over in your own code. Maybe not, I'm not a coder. I dont really know if its like art where your 'style' has its own personality to it. I assume coding can have its own personality as well. u tell me.

we should make a game together sometime

im thinking about playing the drums, does anybody have any advice, i might buy rockband and see what the drums are like on that before forking out $1000+ on a kit. anyboday got any advice, i need as much as i can get, i might collab with a mate who plays the bass. thanks xx

The Rock Band drums are nothing like playing an actual kit - not just from a positioning and number of drums angle, but from the feel of the impact. My advice if you're going down that route is to get some double sided sticky tape and four mouse mats for them, to dampen the sound and improve the bounce on the heads. And get some actual lessons as well to teach you the proper methods of doing ridiculously simple things like holding the sticks and where to put the bass pedal (it seriously needs teaching). At the very cheapest, get yourself a Vic Firth practice pad and a pair of sticks from a drum store.

Good starter kits in the few hundred pounds mark are anything by Mapex if you're looking to make a noise. A few hundred will get you a starter kit (and if you're haggling, a drum throne) probably with hi-hats but more than likely completely without cymbals. Cymbals and pedals are where the big money is spent.

If you're looking for a silent kit then a Pearl Rhythm Traveller (the kit I have) is enough to practice on. Ideally, best of both worlds here is a Yamaha DTExplorer electronic kit that makes next to no noise on contact (less than a set of Rock Band drums do unmodified), yet allows you to pump the sound through headphones.

I'm currently saving up for a Roland TD9-SX and had my Grade 3 drum exam on Saturday.

My laptop is still broken, and I don't like using my desktop at home. It's an ugly nightmare of broken saturation monitors and agonisingly slow boot up times.
