Does anyone actually use it ?

I found myself using it once and then never again, I usually know where I screw up so I never found use for it.

That's right I'm back.

Its used for runtime errors rather than compile-erors.

I use it all the time in my job as a lot of noobs I work with write bad code xD and due to extensive use of it I love it, very helpful when the underlings start crying.

Bah. That sucks. Mabye you should have asked me. I'm a beast at finding people real fast.

That's cause everyone wants me to code their game with my crazy MovieClip code AS2 skills :P

Nah, I think you might have better luck in the Flash forum, collab forum is new so artists might not all check there and also you know giant wall of text is a huge turn off.

I'd keep it as simple as:
"I'm looking for an artist to work on a game with.
Here is my awesome engine I made in as3.
You must not suck.
Send me a PM with your previous work or post here."

Mike, you might be better of PM'ing artists. Some of the best artists on NG never visit the BBS.

I'm not just saying that, its completely true, the sound, the animation, it was all perfect.

AS3 is fun. I think all programmers get excited when they figure something out. The best thrill comes from testing a large segment of newly implemented code and having it work.

I am planning to learn AS3 in the summertime.

How much do you think I could learn in 2 months time?

It depends on how much time you dedicate to it and how much natural talent you have. In college, you'd probably only get through variables, arrays, loops, and conditionals. If you were gust, you'd get through it quickly, well, actually if you were him you wouldn't bother at all since AS sucks :P

Either way.

About lockerz; it is pretty legit, I've had some friends who got games and stuff from there, so it's not like you're wasting your time or anything, but they almost never have anything good in stock, so unless you've got a lot of people to annoy with your invites like I do, I don't think you'll be making the most of it.

A lot of site offer you "free money" or stuff like that in reward for answering a simple question. These sites often get great deals of money from people who do market research , so they are paid to have people giving their opinions in exchange of about 50% of the money that the site is being offered, so most of them are legit. The catch, however, is that in most of them you account gets deleted after 15 days - 2 months of inactivity, so they barely update their questions so that you have to log in more often, that way, they get money from ads.

Once you're able to take any problem you can think of, and solve it using the tools of the language. Even if the solution isn't the best possible solution, so long as the problem is solved in a reasonable manner. (Given there is a possible solution within the bounds of the language)

Even if you need to lightly reference material to do so.

Learning programming in college... Nice joke. You could "learn" AS3 in an afternoon. Programming is no more than a menial task; the engineering of physics, sismology of geophysics, the lesbian sister of computer science, the "trying to get the condom wrapper open" of sex.

When you are learning to program, there's a lot more than just the syntax. You can know the syntax of a program in and out and still be able to optomize your code a month after you wrote it.

Programming makes you think about things at different angles. If you take a break from something and go back later, you aren't looking at it the same way as before. You see something that works better and go "Oh!, that works much better.. now i can change over this... ", then 6 hours later you're once again addicted to that piece of code that you hated 30 some-odd days ago.

I can guarantee that veteran programmers still do this. Hell I bet some of them wake up in the middle of the night because they've suddenly found a way around a problem.

The learning doesn't stop because you've read everything.

Especially when you've spent 5 years mastering a language and then they come out with the next version and it's completely changed, and you're liek wtf? *sob*

At 2/13/10 06:46 PM, citricsquid wrote: So yeah, at which point are you confident in saying you've learned a language?

I'm still learning AS3.

---------------------------
There's a point where you actually start finding legitimate bugs in the language or the compiler (in AS3's case I count that to be flash, but that's full of bugs so it's not really a tough thing to do). I mean legitimate bugs too, not "my for loop isn't working, the language must be bugged!", but stuff that you can reproduce in <5 lines of code or so, that behaves completely against what the documentation says, that has no logical (from the language writer's point of view. Matrix3D doing an auto conversion from twips to pixels when you multiply might not make much sense to you, but it does to the people who made flash, so it's not really a 'bug', just 'stupid')

So I suppose, you "know" a language once you start finding those bugs and hating the language's guts.

Not everyone is as smart, or nerdy, to figure it out before college so unfortunately it does exist. Unfortunately, it's also required so I have to suffer through it. They all have the same flow, all teach the same thing, and all have the same word problems. It's a wonder anyone manages to fail them.

And to be honest I think programming is more of the "is it in yet?" "no that's my butt" "oh sorry, what about now?" "That's my butt crack" "Oh, man.. well can you just put it in?" "Shit fine... well where is it?" "it's right there, where your vagina should be" "oh just forget it"

So you don't beleive him?

Starogre and Glaciel worked together to make the game.

Guys, funkadelic is obviously an alt :P

lol. I just started my first Topic Fad on the General Forum. It was all by accident.

This guy Fro made a topic named "whats your HP"

Then, without knowing this and out of coicidence, I made this topic.

After about 1 hour this happened.

My girlfriend works on Sundays. Valentines won't really start for me for another 2-3 hours. Flowers are all set though, got them this morning. Wish me luck getting lucky tonight. W00t!

Hey, I don't care what or who we're celebrating. I just know that this day eliminates the day to day uncertainty of "So... sex tonight?" and generally assures it so long as some kind of gift is given.

Any other day is probable, but not definite. I like the odds tonight, as opposed to the 40-70% chance any other given night.

Anyone here in love with another reg today? I find delta's freckles to be sexy.
