You have aids.

Did it work :P?

I was posting that exact same thing yesterday, but i didn't click post, as luis appeared to be in a 'NO SPAMZ OR DIEZ' mood.

Hey citric. What was that site you posted a while ago that you could connect to your PC remotely?
Im gonna try playing Halflife 2 in form time :O

I doubt that'll work, above all else the comp won't be good enough to play it (im guessing) as it's a school comp.

My backs hurting now, i've been sat on the edge of my bed playing Gears of war. Not sat on the edge because it's 'intense' or whatever, but because i've got loads of shit over my bed.

Since we're getting a little off, what's your lots favorite game on NG? My personal favorites are Slacker 2, and the Skullkid. Alien hominid i'd say too, although it's a little too popular now. Same could be said for Skullkid I guess.

I thought you would've grown out of that by now!

I usually just move my guy in whatever direction he moves in in the x-axis, and then I do shape-flag on all corners of the guy (sometimes more points, it depends), and moves him back one pixel at a time with a while loop until he doesn't touch. Then I do the same for the y-axis.

Ironicly, you seem to be getting more results than stating a new thread.

I do it a couple of ways, the old way i went about it in heaven's chav (or whatever crap game it was), was to have the _x on hit go out faster than it came in. You could also have a variable then slowing it down a bit after it goes beyond max speed.

Another way i code movement is using Glaiel's real hittest system.
I'll show you my code (although still glitchy).
(not sure if this will make sense, as i've written it a long while ago and I've only cut out a section)
// GG Script
onClipEvent (load) {
r = _width/2;
seg = 20;
}
onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
var nmbr = 0;
xval = 0;
yval = 0;
for (i=1; i<seg; i++) {
var tx = _x+r*Math.sin(i*(360/seg)*(Math.PI/180));
var ty = _y-r*Math.cos(i*(360/seg)*(Math.PI/180));
if (_root.land.hitTest(tx, ty, true)) {
nmbr++;
xval += tx;
yval += ty;
}
}
// My Get direction
_root.number1 = Math.round(57.2957795*Math.atan2(vspd, hspd));
_root.arr2._rotation = -_root.number1+90;
// End get direction
if (nmbr>0) {
_root.arr._x = xval/nmbr;
_root.arr._y = yval/nmbr;
_root.normal = Math.atan2(_x-xval/nmbr, _y-yval/nmbr)/(Math.PI/180)*-1+180;
_root.arr._rotation = _root.normal;
_root.arr._visible = true;
// My Get reflection
reflection = 2*_root.normal-_root.arr2._rotation+180;
_root.arr3._rotation = reflection;
// End get reflection
// Bounce
_root.angle = reflection;
_root.anglerad = (3.14/180)*_root.angle;
if (xspd<bounce) {
if (_root.normal<90 or _root.normal>270) {
xspd = bounce;
}
}
newnumberagain = Math.cos(_root.angle);
vspd = Math.cos(_root.anglerad)*xspd;
hspd = Math.sin(_root.anglerad)*xspd;
} else {
_root.arr._visible = false;
}
}

Hm, it's very very glitchy. But i find it much much more effective to do movement by degrees to get nice results.

Boooooo! Sucks to be me, cant get my laptop back till monday. Really makes me realise how much my life revolves around it. I dont even own a TV and all my work is on my laptop. I'm in the library atm.

man this topic is getting huge XD

its ridiculous x_x

hey thanks a lot guys ^_^ i'll try all your suggestions right now... thanks a lot.

So I did a stupid thing with my money the other day.

I bought something in the Edge Magazine pictured underneath that copy of Flash... duh...
I'm also showing off that my stickers from Luis arrived thanks to me remembering what the Konami code was. Thanks Lu

My computer does modern art.

Watch him at work here.

i have a present for anyone running a flash site (meaning that they put swfs on their site for other people to view). just let me know if you want your present.

I want a present please. I, only host my own swfs though.

Haha, awesome, it'd be great with a speedUp/slowDown button to see it work at different speeds. I'm gonna keep it running for a while, i'll post a picky :P.

I have a random question that I'm sure someone here can answer. How do you create a website logo... pic... thing... I would google it, but I don't even know what it's called. I attached a screen shot that I'm sure will help.

Do you create a gif file, name it something then drop it in the same directory as the index.html page, or does it have to do with the page code?

Favorite Icons. Or Favicons
Wikipedia Entry

There's some sample HTML on that page. You upload a .ico file to your root directory.
Ico's only have 16 colours. Use them well.

Awesome :)

Thanks for the fast response!

It's called a fav icon. Because it comes up when you are on a bookmarked page. That site gives loads of info on making them :).

Hope that helped abit :P.

Just got our monthly prize package through. So far, thats 3 tshirts each for Dim and myself, about 30 stickers of different tank art, a Fourchinnigan book, a random CD and an equally random DVD. Oh, and of course 3 certificates each ^_^

I'd attatch a pic, but sadly .jpgs dont have an awesome channel

Couldn't you link to a .png?

Thanks dep for asking that quesiton, i actually was curious about that too. :D

And cybex, your .swf crashed my whole FF. Now i cant even open it again, and im stuck with IE. O_O I could watch it for a sec though, cool stuff.

Now Im at James', Im trying to avoid places without an internet connection. He is in the middle of a water fight with the neghbouring flat, apparently its an ongoing thing. He is wearing a binliner as a raincoat.

Just press CTRL+ALT+DElETE, then go to the process Tab and click on 'firefox.exe' from the list, and then press the End Process Button. It should work again after that :P.

I've had that problem before.

Weird enough, i tried. There wasn't any FF proccess open not even IE. If i tried to open it said "firefox had a problem please close the current open window then try again" or something. And there was NO window open. o_o

But oh well, restarted comp, it works.

1 and a half hours, and not a single bit of lag

Guitar Hero II.
Unfortunately, our PS2's in the repair shop, and two of our (now three) Gibson SG's have busted whammy bars (the catch inside the guitar that allows it to push against a spring has snapped off, meaning that it still moves, but doesn't return to an original position...).

So not played it yet.

Oh, and Flash 8's also a new purchase for me as well, but everyone here's bought Flash so that's no big deal.

Haha, I got it yesterday as well, its so awesome. Tracks aren't as great as the first, but maybe I need time for them to grow on me. Had a leasurely stroll through medium yesterday, now warming up by going through hard before I go for expert.

I might get a guitar off ebay (a real one) and learn. Which brings me to a new question:

Who here plays an instrument? I play drums and piano, and I used to play percussion in my school orchestra. Our version of star wars was epic!

I play guitar (electric and accoustic), drums, keyboard... :P I have a lot of free time. You should really get a guitar if you've got the money <3

I play Guitar (electric and acoustic), Harmonica and Banjo. I used to play keyboards too, wish I kept it up.
