  1. I always hated bots

    it was always a form of manipulation of somesort

    but anyway if anyones interested in the case here is a copy

    http://file.upinthisbit.ch/d177655e_CJ1010216I.pdf

     

    That's a different case. :-)

     

    ...On information and belief, Defendants are responsible for the development and sale of “Nexus” and “iBot,”...

     

    Defendants advertise and sell the Bots on various web sites, including www.rscheata.net and www.impsoft.net, copies of which are attached as Exhibits E and F, respectively.
  2. I fail to see how that would fix it -- I'm fairly certain you use the same version of Java to run standard detail and high detail. Anyways, I had the monitor plugged in to the onboard monitor port (right term?) instead of the one on my graphics card. That fixed it. :-P.

  3. I can't enter into high detail in RS. (I get the error message: "Could not enter into high detail.").

     

    Graphics card: NVIDIA GeForce 7600 GS (updated driver today, and that update was reflected in dxdiag, so I think that's all working properly.)

    Processor: AMD Sempron Processor 3000+, ~1.8GHz

    2GB Ram

    Windows Vista

    Java is updated, Firefox is updated.

     

    I don't know why I can't enter into HD. Any ideas on troubleshooting?

  4. Alright, thanks for the replies.

     

    I guess my question now then would be is there any way I can get the experience working with hardware and not lose money? I already have a job that takes up most of my time out of school. (family business, so I can't really quit) There are a couple of computer businesses in my town, which I suppose I could check out (as I'm not sure if they're hiring), but again, like I said, I have another job. Any more options?

     

    Craigslist > Services > Computers

  5. An online microphone?

    What the hell?

     

    You know, you download the microphone, start it, and just talk to your monitor. It's the coolest thing ever.

    :mellow:.

     

    No. Go to RadioShack. Spend $10 and get a headset. Plug it into your computer. By then we'll have stopped laughing.

     

    Again - :mellow:.

  6. Excellent idea on the styled spoiler! I love this idea and if it does get implemented, awesome. :thumbsup:

     

    You should also do a code for the hide= tabs, because you can't insert titles in spoiler=.

     

    I was just testing it, and it looks like the same CSS code handles them both. (Which means [hide] and

    represent the same HTML code, even though they're different BBCode tags.)

     

    So, it'd work for both. :-P.

  7. Grab some feathers, and start out like you're walking to the Grand Tree Village. Once you get to the bridge where the river is, go north a little to the fishing spot. Fish there, then run a few seconds east and sell your fish to Rasolo, and run back, fish, and repeat.

  8. ...You have 26 posts. :wall:

     

    My posts are pretty good, though... :unsure:

     

    Anyways, I just skimmed the rules topic for this forum, and I didn't see any saying "You can only request if you have x amount of posts." If I missed that and there is such a rule, then please -- by all means -- close this thread.

     

    Thanks for the input, though. ;)

  9. I'm wondering if anyone could make me a cartoon signature.

     

    I really like this kind of style, but anything that looks decent will be great:

    (That's Dark_Aura's)

     

    I want my character to be wearing a striped mime shirt, black pants, white gloves/boots, with a firemaking cape/hood on, and wielding a fire staff. It doesn't have to be obvious that I'm wearing a FM cape, but as long as it's orange, I'll be happy. I'd like the setting to be the FOG room (where people light fires), and I want my character to be in the foreground with some fire lit behind him. If you don't know what the FOG room looks like, it's basically a dark room with torches on the wall. The only text I want is "SkillingWoo" in orange with a yellow border. :-P.

     

    Anyways, I guess that's basically what I want. As long as it catches the firemaking theme and looks good, I'm happy. If anyone would do this for me, I'd very much appreciate it.

  10. I'd like to throw in my last thoughts. People need to realize that this (game/software development) isn't a one-track road. It doesn't really matter where he starts, or in what direction he goes. There are lots of opportunities to work in the same exact field, but use different languages. While I suggest C++, I also (er, I think I did) said that he'd need to learn Java eventually. Guess what? He'll also need to learn (or be pretty familiar with) several other programming languages. Does it matter which he learns first? Not really. If he isn't wanting to learn Java, he won't have fun learning it. In my opinion, if he doesn't have fun with it, it's a waste of time.

     

    "Oh, but, Andrew, wait...WAIT!!!! <insert language here> IS SO MUCH EASIER TO LEARN!!!!!!!"

     

    That might be true for the first month or so of the learning process for whichever language, but when you actually get into the language, usually the only real difficulty you're going to face that might change between languages is how long it takes to write a program -- and if that's what you're basing your language bias on, well, then shame on you. Also, usually the languages that are "easier to learn" aren't as useful as the languages that are harder to learn. ;)
