I keep forgetting about your fitness :p It clashes with the stereotypical idea of games devlopers I've had since I was a kid. Today I needed to persuade my self that I cared desperately about cashing a <$10 cheque just for an excuse to walk into town.

You need Spotify premium though :( £10 a month is a bit much for the amount I use it.. I can stand the ads when using it on Windows anyway. I hope they make the iPhone version usable with a free account too, ad-supported of course. If it's marketable on computers it must be marketable on mobile devices.


Sup, bitches :)

You mean rent?
Depends on what you need. Storage/bandwidth, dedicated/shared, etc.

Back in 2005 there was some guy on the flash forum who had a server and he was selling bandwidth at extremely low prices for people from the flash forum. I don't know if he still does it though.

i bought 6 months hosting from him and he even raised the bandwidth and disk space limit for free when it was getting close to the limit

Yeah, that was... what's his name... Wasn't it criticsquid? or whatever alt-account he has nowadays. Anyway, he stopped his hostingservice and all clients where transfered to another provider.

If you have swine flu, you must be quarantined from the Reg Lounge. We don't want to catch anything!

I still envy you for going to PAX

Doomsday-One, working on stuff better than preloaders. Marginally.

Response to The Flash 'Reg' Lounge 2009-09-08 20:15:34


PAX was sweet. Almost everything good was free cept for NG stuff, so i spent all my 120 american dollars on NG/behemoth merch (minus subway). also i got Tom, Dan, Jon (starogre), tyler (glaiel), and betino (fawx) to draw something in my book. tried to get mexifry but forgot to.

and tyler, i don't care what anyone says, i like your picture the best.

PS what is it?

I'm pretty sure it's a metaphor for code portability in the modern era of programming as opposed to the earlier days of video game production.

Could just be a weird monster thing, though.

Getting Back Into The Flash Scene...

So, I've been wanting to get back into the Flash Scene for a while. It's been months since I've even opened up Flash, and today for the first time, I started doodling around and testing a few things. I was curious if anyone were interested in making some sort of game, or short animation with me, to get me back into the flash scene?

I'd prefer creating a little mini-game, but anything works fine. If anyone is interested, Send me a PM or respond to the post. I'm hoping someone would like too.

By the way, if we're making a game, I'd need a coder. I don't do actionscript, I'm art. :)

AS2 or 3 ?

AS2 it seems, at one point he sets _xscale of something to 100 (AS3 equivalent: scaleX = 1).

I hope I can get it soon enough, still a noob though. Except, I never want to go back to frames but I don't know how to do everything I could into classes.

AS3 I hope? ;) From what I've heard OOP in AS2 sucks.

I have been doing OOP for a while, and I love it, but despite that I've been thinking about perhaps coding on frames occasionally. Smaller projects just becomes overly complex with classes, and I think it's a big enough difference to value the efficiency of frame coding higher than the 'correctness' of OO.

Internally everything is OO anyway :P
