Work

Well be awhile since i worked on my super secret project that isn't really a secret. Want something down on magnetic disk before i go blabber my mouth. This project really is covered by months old dust indicating i haven't worked on it. Anyways getting back to work on it today and getting through my bug list for the day.

I've also been helping people at legend of krystal 
design a CoC  like game. An artist who's helped me on art work for one of my project just one day basically asked what needs to happen for this to get made. Anyways, from the sounds of it, she's going to do the art, two or three other novice programmers are going to do the programming in flash; however i've self appointed my self as whipping master and ActionScript3 Ranter. I love both jobs! First one allows me to whip the programmers when they do something silly, and the other allows me to rant and rave about how i dislike ActionScript and how all other programming languages are far superior because they don't have fancy things like vector drawing. Having great fun and we're right now trying to figure out a syntax for the parser. I have to admit, as much as i personally hate flash programming or game making i guess; this project i think is doing the right thing by using it.

Also slowly learning Unity engine but that's really something i'm barely doing. Trying to make a card game and strangely enough, the engine is to complex for my low ability and the simplicity of the project. I should probably mess around with that soon but it's not really a priority right.

Status

Wow i've been quiet, sorry about that. Right now i'm working on a game project, randomly messing around with unity and RPG maker (It's really random when i open them up and i don't have any grand plans for either engine.) and i'm doing a mini project where i'm trying to prove that i can not only real individual pixels from a image, but also rewrite them. I'm shocked how hard this really is. I thought it would be like writing to a 2 dimensional array and giving a new pixel values but it's a bit more complicated than that. You have to create a class just to read the values of the image which i would normally consider wasteful. I did find a more straight forward way of doing it, but i believe it's more waste full on CPU cycles so i'm going to continue the way i've been going since it can be used with every image class.

I do have my game project which i haven't been working on.

B.I.P.

Since i'm releasing those library on LegendofKrystal.com/forum/index in a tutorial; i thought it would be a good idea to also release the file here. Sorry but they're hosted on LOK and i'm tired as all hell so no, i can't upload to mediafire.

If you want to download the files than here,
http://www.legendofkrystal.com/forum/download/file.php?id=14386
That should be direct link to the file.
Here is the link to the thread i posted the files at. (WARNING, THE SITE IS AN ADULT WEB SITE.)

Progress.... is slow.

Well my sneaky plan of programming on my off hours at school has been ruin by... Procrastination .  You can tell this was a total shock to me because of how many attributes i gave that string of text compared to the rest. It's a annoying how programming ruins your ability to talk like a normal human; who says "String of text?" well programmers who have to deal with string.

Anyways here's what i'm doing.
I've been working on a 'package' or 'Library' as they're called for speeding up development on games. I plan to release this on LOK as a group project as soon as i think i've done enough.
I've already made a simple test game that uses the engine but this is really simple and i wouldn't call it a game.
I think i'm going to redo NC cop again and see if i can do it right this time.

I got some some ideas that could be used to make the game better.
I'll start by look at my old code for the next 2 and a half hours until my classes start.
The big problem is coding at school is the fact my main code is on my Laptop and what i carry around is a flash drive with a back up copy. It's just that the flash drive normally has a out of date version of software. NC cop i should have a problem with since i haven't touched that in months.

I think i might try a dungeon system with NC cop a lot like how CoC does it but randomly generated.

Update, going to make tutorials

Hey, so i'm trying to get more active about blogging so i'm basically trying to make roughly 5 post per week between two accounts.

I'm using this one to talk about topics i find intresting for that day like DRM or Different languages; while this one i'm using for my programs and java in general.

Anyways to help increase my activity and do something I've been wanting to for a while, I'm going to start creating basic Java tutorials covering the basics.

It's going to take me a while to set these up and figure out what i want to talk about.
I will be putting links to books i suggest you buy if you want to learn java since the books will normally go in to greater detail what the program is doing to the machine it's running on.

I haven't stopped working on my programs nor will this really halt progress. Also, i've got a huge gap between classes so i should start programming more.

EDIT
Well heres a webpage i found that should help you set up Java. I'm going to start working on some applications for the tutorials.
