I guess it is part of the new z-buffer system. Before, there was probably the chance of the new icons/text not being positioned correctly. I guess it will tell you what you hit, what style of attack you hit with, and if you hit at all.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cPpjZ7Z9SU0 This is exciting! I like how they are starting to explore new ways of reaching their players. The developer video blog is way better than any text wall they put out. The new quest seems interesting. I look forward to seeing more into the void knight series.

Just uploaded a room tour video thing. Youtube HD Video - This video will cause high CPU usage, to view the video in a lower quality, please click here. I have to close at work tonight :/ I am shopping for rackable network equipment for cheap. I have a 7' tall enclosed, powered, and cooled rack which can house 42 units I think. I have a 24-port switch as well. I am looking into buying a few used rack servers, a ups, storage solution, etc. I want to have a server for each of the following: Web server, coding tester server(testing self-coded applications with networking) , media streaming server, a couple of game servers, storage server, and a backup server. I want to join the major geeks and have my own server system in my bedroom/basement :D I am thinking about getting my CDL. I used to ride with my uncle when he did local deliveries. It is pretty cool being in a semi. I love to drive so it would be cool.

They probably went through "over 9000" lines of coding to get everything working.

Save for college. Trust me, you will need it. Obama won't be able to con enough money to pull you through on loans and grants.

I just planed my next two orders for a new pc build. Here they are: The first order is self explanatory. The second is another graphics card as well as four monitors. This will allow me two run up to 6 monitors using my motherboard. I have two currently, a 21.5 inch and a 15 inch. I plan on giving the 15 inch monitor away and using the 21.5 with my laptop. The LG monitor has a built in TV tuner so I can connect a 360 or something to it. When I do quad monitors, I plan on doing a 4x1 array. I thought about 2x2, but I would hurt my neck looking up. My graphic card says it can support a resolution of 2560x1600 or whatever. Does that mean in total, or per output

1 Move to Cambridge 2 Apply at jagex 3 ???????? 4 Profit First, you need to go to this website. Look for a job which matches your skills and send in a C.V. to Jagex and pray you over top 5000 other people's CV's and skills. Getting into the games industry is very hard without knowing people who are already in it. There are thousands of people like you who are trying to get in.

I've never really used other people's templates before so I can't help you on that. I always make my own templates planners in photo shop, set as background, do all of the css to position where I want everything, then modify the design planner to an actual background.

Lets say you wanted a 32 by 32 grid across that 700x700 area. ALl you would have to do is create a function which returns the value of a pixel multiplied by 32. public int GetGridSpace(int value) { return value*32; } Now for an example: //This would be in your paint method!!!!! This will draw your toon along a 32x32 grid in the desired position as long as it is within the screen bounds, not the image bounds. if(GetGridSpace(ToonX) < getWidth() && GetGridSpace(ToonY < getHeight()){ g.drawImage(ToonImage, GetGridSpace(ToonX) ,GetGridSpace(ToonY) ,null); } Now for a WalkNorth method you would do something like: //This assumes you have an image named CharacterImage as well as a Boolean for each direction you are facing and all of the necessary images. This is psuedocode also. public void WalkNorth() { //Change the image to one which face north (no animation is used) CharacterImage =Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(class.getClass().getResource("/charNorth/png")); //If you have animation CharacterImage =Toolkit.getDefaultToolkit().getImage(class.getClass().getResource(CharacterAnimationClass.getNextImageMethod()).toString()); } In your character animation class, you want to store the images for that animation in an array and loop through the array as you move. Its like midnight my time and I need to get some sleep so I will check this thread when I wake up. -bp

Honestly, if your videos are well-produced (Good quality, rendered correctly, high resolution, good music, original content, etc), there is no need for advertising or leeching off of friends to advertise for you. People who see your videos will share with friends who will share with friends, and so on.

Here is what I would do: //PseudoCode by ballerplaya //This will make the character appear to move //This assumes this is using KeyListener and is in the keypressed method //This also assumes that the map is placed using static X,Y positioning public void KeyPressed(KeyEvent evt) { int key = evt.getKeyCode(); switch(key) { case KeyEvent.VK_UP: //We want to move the map down as well as make it look like the character is moving up MapPosY --; //Reduce Y-coord by one Character.WalkNorth(); //Trigger an animation to make it look like it is walking North break; case KeyEvent.VK_DOWN: MapPosY ++; //Increase Y-coord by one Character.WalkSouth(); //Trigger an animation to make it look like it is walking South break; case KeyEvent.VK_LEFT: MapPosX --; //Reduce X-coord by one Character.WalkWest(); //Trigger an animation to make it look like it is walking West break; case KeyEvent.VK_RIGHT: MapPosX ++; //Reduce X-coord by one Character.WalkEast(); //Trigger an animation to make it look like it is walking East break; Default: } //Update the graphics so it shows your changes and animation UpdateGraphics(); } If you need an example, PM me and I can whip you up something. I was thinking that at first, but then moved to the character moving idea because of all the things that would need to move on the map...NPCs, etc... Oh well, I guess. :P So, any ideas on how to start on this then? If you have some coordinate system setup, as long as your "camera" is showing the area in which NPC's, buildings, etc are, it shouldn't matter. Lets say your "camera" covers a 10 by 10 grid. Lets say you have an npc which automatically walks between 12,13 to 14,15. If your map gets relocated in the area in which the npc is located, it will show that npc doing it's thing.

You could send a packet flood to the game server which would slow their connection down. This would also get you the FBI on your doorstep.

I took my girlfriend home for the first time and hid her in my closet so I could surprise my parents. I sat them down then told them I have something very important to bring out of the closet. My parents started having the "It's OK to be gay" conversation with me then she popped out and my parents were like "Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :blink: ". My dad told me they though I was gay for the past 5 years since I never brought a girl home. My dad is very old fashion and my mom is highly religious. I don;t want to bring someone home and have them be interrogated with religion and farming crap. I could;ve sworn I heard my mom call most of my family and saying "He isn't gay, you owe me 20 bucks". So my confession is I had a strange day and I have a [bleep]ed up family..

Install WAMP (Easy to setup web server) and do all your test projects locally without using the internet at all. That is how I test everything before I add it to my own website to save on bandwidth usage. Just buy a domain from GoDaddy. I bought a few .info's and .com's and I have never had an issue. The annual cost for a .info is 2 dollars and a .com is 7 dollars with promo codes.

Just got in from work at 3:26/4:26AM ( I live on time zone border fml). Closing sucks. Some kid split a whole day's worth of grease from the grills and didn't tell anyone. I went back there and the whole area was slippery and wet. Took two hours to clean. The kid got wrote up for being a dumb ass. We got a new manager and I am not going to lie; she is very fine. Tall, blond hair, blue eyed, nice skin, face, features. One of my female-bisexual coworkers said she was pretty hot lol. I'm tired and I work in 8 hours so I'm going to get some sleep. Oh and to answer why I didn't look at my computer's clock, it is never right anyways, It is 4:43 AM EST and my computer says it is 12:13.

Tip.it is a Runescape help site. There are already several SD/MS tip sites already out there. Like tripsis said, a lot of people would need to be recruited IF we did started catering to SD players as well as RS players. The only thing I see in the future is a few more SD boards then if those get popular, I bet we will get a SD section on tip.it.

I know this is late but.... What were you doing on the computer when you had to go to work? Was waiting for uniform to dry. I found out someone changed my clock to an hour fast so instead of behing 5 minutes late, I was 55 early. FML

I just woke up. I have to be at work in 15 minutes. I have a 20 minute drive. FML. TImetoGo85MPHWihtoutGettingPulledOver

this x 100000000 They need to mix southpark with spongebob.

I would rather see monthly updates anyways with weekly development blogs/vlogs. I can't wait to see the game engine update! -ballerplaya

Just save for the G19. The G15 is alright, but the G19 is wayyyy better.

Use protection....from nuclear explosion.

That's pretty sweet Das. Today, the head manager and I were the only two who closed. Two people got sick and two quit. I had to (in no order): close the grills, take all of the food back to the freezer, restock everything, clean the lobby, clean the soda fountain machines, make tea for openers, cook food from two hours before closing to closing, make the food into products, take orders, clean the bathrooms, clean the dishes, put them away, clean the windows, and more crap. I am very tired. I am running on Monster and a Caramel Frappe.

Inb4Gingershavesoulstoo! In my opinion, a soul determines our ability to do anything we desire and allows us to acknowledge our existence among others.

Its the first time they have said there wont be an update today, before I even wake up. "We need to make sure the clan we leaked information to has enough time to buy up certain resources before the update goes live. A lot of their members have doctor's appointments today." Shoot I still need to buuyout Str ammys. brb jk.
