Super Nintendo RPG

Greetings.

This is an old project of mine and Hyarion's.

It's a really old game, based on the RoH source (yes, it is a "rip"). Right now, what I'm wondering is if anyone else would like to develop this project. I'm open to nearly anyone taking it over, but, the thing is, the game code is ugly (as RoH's is), so it will take a great deal of fortitude for anyone to want to do it. I'm willing to host stable versions as they appear, so you don't have to worry about that.

Feel free to page me, email me, or .. well, comment.

PS: I'm deleting anything related to 'omg rip lol.'

Skill Trees

So, I've just today finished my skill tree demo. I've had a few people test it, and from what I see, it's functional enough to put up as a demo now. It's poorly commented, and I know this, sorry about that.

If anyone has any suggestions or comments, feel free to leave them.

Those of you who follow my games lore and whatnot:

It's not all shown.. the scanner failed, but that's okay.

Ah, the anxiety

So, after a bit of thought yesterday, I realized I skipped saving the contents of a mob. I've reupped a version today, and felt it warrants another post, and whatnot.

MySQL and the mob

Sat, 26 Sep 2009 16:11:39 GMT

So, after a long time of not releasing anything (about a year) or posting anything (a few months), I decided that I should do that. In the process of making my game, Nameless Lands, I've decided to convert my entire game to use a SQL database, and this is the first of three demos to come -- one for mobs (players), another for mobs (creatures), and a final one for objects.

Today, after 28 revisions (according to tortoiseSVN), I have finally finished mob saving. I'm releasing it to the public since all I see are libraries that "make it easier," and I wanted to make it one step simpler. If anyone wishes to attempt to decode this (probably terrible) mess of coding, feel free to leave comments. You can find the demo here. I am not giving any screenshots, because, well.. there's not a whole lot to show. Remember, it's a DEMO, it is not plug and play.

I apologize in advance for you brave warriors, for my fail of documentation. Good luck & godspeed (that's what my teacher does when he hands out a test, tee hee).

The DS

Wed, 24 Jun 2009 19:15:07 GMT

No, I'm not looking for actual cartridge games. I'm looking to compile a list of DS games that are somewhat interesting, unique, or are final fantasy.

I'm sure 9001 people on BYOND have a DS, and have a favorite game, or two, or list of several. I wanna hear what you all got!

Portability

Sun, 15 Mar 2009 10:05:28 GMT

I felt compelled to write up something to say just how awesome the Portableapps Suite is. This is a program made for flashdrives, meant to create easier accessibility for programs, as well as a bunch of apps to go with it. There is such a vast amount of apps, but the ones of the top of my head:

WinMerge - This lets you compare files and merge them, and it even has syntax highlighting. I know someone a long time ago was looking for something like this.
Notepad++ - I know how much BYOND loves it's notepad++, and here's a portable version of it!
Breakout - Who doesn't love a classic game of breakout? Well, not so classic, but still incredibly fun!
GIMP - If this wasn't free, I'd have gotten my moneys worth on this one. I use GIMP all the time, everywhere I go, because I am so anti-photoshop, and my school somehow got rid of paint.exe.
Firefox - Not so much my favorite, I actually put opera in there, myself..
Pidgin - Again, not so much my favorite, as I've actually put trillian there, but I know there are some pidgin fanboys probably reading this.
Openoffice - Definitely amazing. I no longer have any of this installed on my computer, just because I have it here. I'm just that cool.
Mac-on-stick - Ever want to run the Mac OS from a flashdrive? Well, it's Mac OS 7, but it's still there.
Kee-pass - Definitely awesome. I use this to store all my passwords in, as I take games with me everywhere I go (some of them are mmorpgs, really small ones, but still), and this keeps all my passwords safe :D.
Infrarecorder - A portable CD/DVD burner. Yay!

I think I've mentioned quite a few. Some you may have heard of, some hopefully not. If you have a spare flashdrive, definitely check this utility out!

On a side note:
Even if you don't want to use some portable programs, you can put your own in. You'd just have to put forth a bit more effort -- putting the files in the portableapps folder yourself. Not a big deal, though, right?

A glorious day.

Happy π day!

Keyboard style

Thu, 19 Feb 2009 15:00:02 GMT

Okay. I'm curious to know, what are the advantages to QWERTY vs. Dvorak? I heard Dvorak is much nicer for speed, and I'm starting to feel slow with my hands on a QWERTY.
Does anyone have Dvorak that would speak? Someone that's used both?
