Yeah, definitly is the cop in you... I'd be too much of a !@#$%^&* to do that If the guy started to walk towards my house, I would definitly have called the cops But at the speed he was going, I wouldn't worry too much...

Not to disappoint you guys, but I doubt there will ever be new development on that . Well, not by me anyway. With The Continuum Project thing, I'm kind of busy.

Yeah... But it would be confusing to "launch server" if it opens you a zone, then you put arenas in it... screw that. Like in all other games I played, a server is an arena... Simple as that. If the chat system works everywhere, events would even still be possible. People would just change server for the event

Next time you want to do an advertising topic, atleast make it readable and not filled with ugly emoticons... Also do a simple spell check. Closed so this crappy topic dies quick.

Replace 'any zone' with 'official zones' and that would work... In theory, anyone should be able to put his own zone up, with his own settings, but privileges granted there (i.e. credits) won't be usable in official zones. Also, we might want to get rid of the distinction between zones and arenas... "Zones" would actually be only 1 arena. But the lobby would present all arenas, and chat should be possible from the lobby. Or something. And a quick ?go to switch through different zones... or arenas... whatever. Some arenas of the same type could be regrouped or something... But we wouldn't want to see 1 racing arena here, another one there, and another in some hidden server... If you feel like racing, you go in the Racing category, and there are arenas for you. If you feel like playing some KOTH, browse KOTH arenas, and enter one. All the files on the current servers are like 99.9% pure garbage of old maps that just sticked in the hard drive for years... That's my idea, open for feedback I think it would be more "standard" to do it this way, and less confusing for newbies, and newbies will more easily find obscure arenas with weird gameplay that are still fun

Gravity gun... heh... well, repels and perhaps a tractor beam That's enough to manipulate gravity as you want

Go Chuck

Didn't load for me, but I found it on youtube... was great lol

!@#$%^&* I must have a laryngitis or something...

kinetic weapons would be cool (i.e. a fast gun that pushes the enemies away)

I just got myself: Halls - Cough syrup centre - Cherry It's good for the few minutes it lasts

the ship properties should only hold the min/max value settings for the ship, it should not hold any information on the player current speed, current heading, current number of weapon X, etc. should be a separate object. These things will probably be part of Player, just like in the current mervBot system, for example. Yes, pitch would be the up/down rotation speed. As flabby suggested, multiple modes should be available for the servers, either 2D style, full 3D, limited 3D, perhaps 2D with multiple "floors" or layers...

Our TV needs a screwdriver planted through the plastic screening on the top to work... and when it glitches, we just.. move the screwdriver's handle around and move some parts inside it. lol. (Don't worry, it's staying away from the cathod of the CRT)

because there are alot of developpers who'd love to be able to have friction. Of course it can be 0... And some areas could increase / multiply friction... that'd be nice. If we just applied all physics, there wouldn't be any top speed either (except for the speed of light... )

What you're doing would be a ShipProperties object I guess And yeah, thrust, speed, rotation, all that crap... friction probably. Maybe rotation acceleration. Pitch rotation, ... list of weapons it can carry... all that stuff I guess. But don't add too many stuff that we have no idea about yet

http://docs.gimp.org/en/gimp-concepts-imag....html#id2593062 took me about 12 seconds to find... google man, google http://docs.gimp.org/en/ Has pretty much all your answers on Gimp I guess

hmmmmm Am I supposed to take offense to that or something? [...] I don't know, but you sure did, lol.

playing Sega? You mean Sonic?

PC is pretty obvious... If you post on forums, chances are you have a PC. Especially on a forum about a PC game...

=/ Is this serious or just a ripoff of rasta's thread?

Let's see... Therion - Gothic Kabbalah (I don't own the CD yet though ) http://cdn.last.fm/coverart/300x300/3259447.jpg Iron Maiden - Brave New World http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/I/610E63UVlxL._SS500_.jpg Megadeth - Countdown to Extinction http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/b/b3/Countdown.jpg/200px-Countdown.jpg !@#$%^&*oween - The Dark Ride http://www.spirit-of-metal.com/les%20goupes/H/!@#$%^&*oween/The%20Dark%20Ride/The%20Dark%20Ride.jpg Sonata Arctica - Reckoning Night http://artzone.daz3d.com/chatlogs/images/toxicangel/sa_reckoning_night.jpg There surely are more awesome albums out there, but that was from those I own... Except Gothic Kabbalah, which is just too awesome to not put on the list.

Ocean's Eleven Family Guy's movie Hot Shots 1 and 2 are classics Ice Age was probably the most awesome animation movie ever... Shrek isn't too far behind how come noone mentionned Clockwork Orange yet? ... newbs.

Small problem with fading: The form has a transparey key, which is the color that defines its transparent areas. When fading from the background to an image over a transparent area, as soon as the color is different from the transparey key, that area becomes totally opaque. Apparently the forms' variable opacity is a Windows feature... So if you want to fade in a black rectangle over a transparent area of the form, it should do: Transparent -> Less-transparent, grey-ish -> black But now it does: Transparent -> Totally opaque as soon as it starts, same color as form transparency key (i.e. pink) -> Gradually fades to black Fading over something else works perfectly though... But to have perfect fading, I'd need to grab an image of the screen (only part of it), then blend the fading image on that. However, the only way to do this seem to be by using gdi32.dll API calls (BitBlt, more precisely). But that thing is Windows only right? :S Actually I just need to get the screen's hDC or something... hmm... Does OpenGL have feature to access the screen's data directly (via the gfx card, I guess)? (link) Test the current splash project in my branch if you don't understand what I'm saying

Maybe good... but I doubt it can be considered one of the TOP 5 movies EVER... Unless you really did not watch many movies Edit: I thought this was the top 5 movie thing... apparently it's been spammed... oh well. [/offtopic] Haven't seen I am Legend, so I can't add anything on topic

*takes notes* I have an annoying cough at the moment
