Title: Program
Post by Outsider on 10/29/03 at 21:56:50
Might start building a program related to NM, have some idea's myself for instance.

  • When you're lost you just add the yellow description in a textbox and it'll spit out the corresponding maps

    f.e.

    Cherrytree Lane: This peaceful Resthavian district is filled with beautiful cherry blossom trees, their bright leaves scattered along the path creating a pink carpet of softness beneath your feet. You can go East or West.

  • Also having every weapon, armor, item etc in there when typing in a name it will show the pic, /library classes etc


I want it to be more then just a website made into a program so i need more idea's.....

o yea kinda sounds messed up but i got it all in my head just dont know how to explain, but i'll show it soon enough....

I like what I've seen so far..makes it easier to get to your maps without flipping through a bunch of websites, can't wait for it to be finished.

Post by Maltakano on 10/30/03 at 18:59:13

Title: Re: Program
Post by Jurian on 10/30/03 at 19:02:02
known bugs/flaws:

not finished yet :D

working on:

putting all weapons/maps in.

making a check on what folder your gfx stuff is in to make sure you have the correct folder.

making it so that your gfx folder is stored somewhere (not really sure how to do that yet :D)

No offense or anything, but JLH, can you scan the file and test it, coz i dont wanna run it, log into my account which i share with a very good friend and find out his and my crits have been stolen.
Title: Re: Program
Post by JLH on 10/31/03 at 01:09:26
use a firewall program such as zonealarm, which will tell you if the program attempts to access the internet. as for doing stuff by itself, that is possible, and there is no way to prove it, since it's custom code, a virus scanner wouldn't detect it.

Squiggle both me and sarah have it on our computers and all of my stuff is still in my account and hers

Post by Outsider on 10/31/03 at 12:52:27
Gonna make 2 progs now, one with just maps and all kinds of ways too find the right one (even if you have no idea where you are)

And the second with all the miscelaneous (sp) like weapons armor etc

cuz the point of it was to find maps quick so i'll make it a seperate one without all that other crap
