Cheese

3:Cheese!> i just got done loading warbird pictures, then making them not have black squares DONE 3:Cheese!> next i break it apart into which way wb is facing DONE 3:Cheese!> after that im going to break apart lvl files and make a map 3:Cheese!> then im gonna do camera stuff DONE 3:Cheese!> also probably make object tracking system 3:Cheese!> then im either going to do basic physics or networking

there arent any

even so, im going to be doing this without any dependence on any third party stuff, excluding windows and opengl, so i wouldnt have used it anyways

and its 3000 lines of dense text because its a critical module obviously

so i sit down and look at net.c and holy fucking fuck its 3000 lines

UPDATE: client is up and running, modules are loading and unloading, opening windows, and drawing using opengl next on the list is drawing sprites, then sending network traffic, and probably saving data of some sort like profiles and zone info DEMO ATTACHED TO THIS POST will put opengl windows on todo list for eventual completion im thinking about calling the new client "SubSpace Continuum" has a nice ring to it, right? sscpreview.zip

so i already wrote the windows module, but it looks like i might be able to bypass it entirely because opengl has stuff for creating windows that might also work in linux/mac...

UPDATE: work has begun i have the critical core components compiled and up and running core modules loaded: main logman module cmod mainloop logman log_console total source files to date: 19 next modules to write: windows opengl

i remember seeing you did some sort of 3d camera test with 3d block-tiles many years back, but i assure you im purely interested in sprites

because they keep trying to do other things i work very quickly, but my biggest hurdle is that im lazy and busy irl additionally, even if i suddenly get hit by a meteor irl, someone can still pick up where i left off

So I am officially declaring my intention to create a new client. My reasoning for this is that this game has been abandoned by its creator, and the sscouncil is forced to do things like vpn tunneling to add new clients, and the server software is limited, and the limits of subgame have been reached and surpassed, limiting development. By releasing a new client, I hope to force a new transition to ASSS, while still being able to connect to subgame zones, and to release the stranglehold that priit has on the game, and release it to the community. My focus is to produce an exact duplicate of the current client and all servers before adding any new features. Additionally, I will be putting everything on a bitbucket repository, so anyone can contribute. I plan to release my private SSChat client that was created in the process of creating SuperBank in HyperSpace, which uses the ASSS chatnet protocol. I will probably end up writing a directory and billing server in the process, and possible a lvl image creator, but probably not a full map editor. I have not decided what I will call it yet. I will be writing it in C, like ASSS. I will be using a modular system in the style of ASSS (probably stealing some stuff). As such, it will be multiplatform. Once nearly complete, I will be submitting it to the steam greenlight program, and possibly set up an acheivements skeleton. I have a large amount of experience with writing win32 applications in C. I have a large amount of experience with direct3d, directinput, and the directx sprite library. However, in an effort to create a multiplatform client, I am researching the capabilities of OpenGL's 2D capabilities, which appear to only be a weak orthographic projection. There will be a Windows module which creates win32 windows and controls, but I have absolutely no idea how to create something similar on a mac or on linux, so the client will probably only be available on windows early on in development. consider this a forward declaration

the bot only regurgitates information collected by the zone the bot is a player one player can not influence another player's network connection have you ever considered that you just lag

fixed a lot of shit and added some stuff more importantly, i added a sample demo module to show just how easy it is to use this thing check it out

i can confirm that sandboxie works, but i wish there was a way using os facilities feels like such a hack

you people -_-"

not possible, as the owner is afk and did not release source code

using vms is cheating also very slow and unwieldy with a huge overhead

unfortunately, that was one of the first thing i tried it has 2 options: run as admin or run as another user, and both just draw focus to the one already running

so this might not seem like too big of a problem to other people, but has anyone found a way to open up a second client on windows 7? i upgraded from xp awhile ago, and it seems to be a mild improvement however, it is terribly inconvienient to try to talk to other people in pm or on a chat while trying to develop an asss zone, play a non ssc zone, or just to switch zones frequently, or use another name required for staff access nothing critical, but still terribly annoying

tl;dr do you even play ss?

lol bipolar guy got dumb guy banned

now that you point that out, there really is a trend

you are dumb

maybe he banned you because youre so obsessive i know i would
