Anybody who has less than 50 posts per page either still has dial up, or just like hundreds of unnecessary pages (depending on the thread, of course). My pages are 50 posts and I like it that way!

EDIT:

Has anybody ever seen the show "Better Off Ted"? I like it.

I'm so frickin' tired of drama.

On a different note, I wish I could just live in Wisconsin already and get the heck out of this heck hole I currently live in.

I was just playing Counter-Strike whilst listening to music and this song came on. It was very counter-productive.

No pun intended. Funny story about that. There once was a man who was very proud of his ability to write puns. He entered ten of his puns in a local pun-competition, hoping at least one would win. Unfortunately, no pun in ten did.

There once was an ugly caterpillar, and no one played games with him because they thought he was ugly. Sad and depressed, he encased himself in a shell. When he woke up, he found out that he was a butterfly, and everyone though he was gay.

I went to the bank and asked to borrow a cup of money. They said, "What for?" I said, "I'm going to buy some sugar."

I went to a restaurant that serves "breakfast at any time." So I ordered French Toast during the Renaissance.



Yep, I found a joke site.

I love to go shopping. I love to freak out salespeople. They ask me if they can help me, and I say, "Have you got anything I'd like?" Then they ask me what size I need, and I say, "Extra medium."

I went to the hardware store and bought some used paint. It was in the shape of a house. I also bought some batteries, but they weren't included. So I had to buy them again.

I've just been going through the Steven Wright ones.

More notes...


Current(Broken) system:
Ragdoll object created - go to EditType 3, add root bone for limb 1, parent 0.
Create bone - parent is bone 1(root). Delete existing body for bone, get data for offsets, add ragdoll bone. This only deletes bones' bodies and does not remove existing bones, just renumbers each. Crashes entire program after a few bones are created.

To do:
Ragdoll object created, create CompObj(1) body.
Similar to compound collision mode, each new "bone" is a CompObj index, and no ragdoll bones are created.
Check button - need a CompData array to store collision data for each bone. Destroy any existing ragdoll bodies, then destroy ragdoll container. Create new container, iterate through CompObj bodies and create a bone for each using its compdata. For child bones, subtract the offset and rotation of the parent bones to change to local values.
Need - swap axes button set - xy, xz, yz, -x, -y, -z for easier adjustment after check.
Fix - creating child bones does not resort list - ?


Floarble.

Heres a quick look at the unwrap progress on the hive ship. It looks messy but ive done it in my setup, mainly so it cant be retextured by anyone but me// This wont be for realese // so its a fall back measure



Ive only got a loop left to flatten and the main hulls planes to strighten out.

I will of course compress it all together, but the square flattening works unbeliveably well. This has been done be hand not a unwrap filter/ so i know where everything is and how it connects together.

2 hours ish on it so far//

Sleepy now

Burp.

If you're thinking, "Did he just burp?", then I must respond with, "No.". I only typed it. Dummy.

Watch and/or read Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. I've done both, it muddles your brain good. As they say, reality is stranger than fiction. Despite the many laws broken, the book is a great piece of journalism and they film does it justice brilliantly.

No, Not just for FPSC, But i loaded the object in my editor as i have an 'Export FPSC Entity' Option which writes all the FPE Files and Everything Automatically, I've got about 10 different bridge segments so im just going to add then all to FPSC Through my editor.

My Editor has actually come in handy for something

Yes, yes it does. Try it about two-hundred more times, then report back. If you succeed, you must train for your final test to beat it OVER 9000 times in less than two minutes. You're prize is a cookie, so this is no joking matter. Good luck, and God speed.

That would make such an AWESOME movie. Too bad they already made "Minesweeper: The movie".
No really. They did!
Look it up on youtube.

I dont think i like FPSC anymore, I stayed up all night and did my own model pack with bridges, tunnels and Subway, over 30 models dones, FPE files done, just to find out that it dosn't support multitexturing so i've got 30 odd entities that are no good in FPSC

Maybe i should have checked first

If you're talking that low-spec, you might as well used Advanced Terrain or a matrix.

Okay thanks, im not really that informed when it comes to the speed aspect of things, im used to developing on a nice medium spec rig. For Matrixes and Advanced terrain, i didnt know thre was a way to load a matrix and i need it a pretty specific shape, advanced terrain would seem my best option the, highmap generators it is!, or maybe i should look into blitz terrain.

There's not, but it isn't too much of a stretch to read in an image and then use Set Terrain Height to do it manually.
