Spring RTS Engine

Great work guys, though I just thought I'd point out that the Lobby server on the downloads page is out of date, If you try to connect to it from TASClient 0.36 you get an unsupported version message. would someone please be able to update this :)

Yeah, my focus is directly to the left of his head, where it seems to go down that alleyway, or whatever it is, right next to the tower. Nice job on the consistent perspective in the background on that first image, however Snipa's quote illustrates a little trick you can use with perspective to dra...

Sounds like getting some automated unit testing going for the core classes in the engine would be very beneficial. Having predictable and repeatable unit tests will provide much more confidence that a given build will free of *major* bugs. The added benefit of this is that it reduced the reliance on...

I have the same problem on my 8800GTS. I'm assuming its a driver issue, but its still not resolved even with the latest drivers (158.19 on XPSP2)

Cowboy bebop, Ghost in the shell (the movies, not so much the series), Akira, and serial experiments lain.

yep, already done that.

lets see RATM Muse The mars Volta At the drive in Kyuss Uriah heep Jethro tull Jimi Hendrix DJ Shadow stevie ray vaughan Cream Anyways, theres already plenty of rock and (frankly too much)rap/hip hop around here, so I guess I should add some classic jazz to the mix John Coltrane Miles Davis Bill Eva...

Mind if we send you the bill for people who don't plan ahead? Well technically we all do, its called tax (okay yes I'm being a smartass) But seriously, I wouldn't call having a mentally handicapped child an example of "not looking ahead", especially if you don't support abortion (which se...

hunger is a great and powerful motivator. People will not starve and die, they will get hungry, go work, make money, and eat. Blanket statements such as these only serve to show that you have put little thought into what in actuality are complex issues. These sorts of issues are best resolved throu...

GMN, you seem to have a reasonable grasp on the proportions of the bodies of your characters, though as KDR said, the proportions of the faces are way off, and ultimately its the face of a character that conveys the personality of that character, so its the most important bit to get right. When I fi...

I scan them in at 300 dp, but that's a pencil drawing. The color border issue is due to me not putting a high enough threshold on the colour fill tool You want to make the scanned lines a transparent layer with only the lines being visible (dunno how you do this in tha gimp) but I'm sure theres lot...

I disagree, You gain alot in the coluring process, in fact I think colouring goes a long way toward covering mediocre drawing skills (i.e in my case )

So far they've been all bad except maybe weavers and his I can only think of one use for, on an acid shooter with arghs new flame code, we need more generally useful stuff guys, if its only a 20 minute slack job don't bother posting it. Fair enough, my first attempt was pretty abysmal. so heres a 2...

heres a rusty piece of iron. Could be useful for anyone wanting to make some sort of industrial revolution/steampunk type stuff.

1.69 something In the perfect body, everything uses that ratio, for example, the joins in your finger, the bit between your palm and the first is 1.69 longer than the next bone along and so on to the finger tips. The closer to this ratio things appear, the more 'pretty' we itnerpret them as. The sa...

not only that, it doesn't support CSS 1 properly, only a select subset, let alone CSS 2

There seems to be a bit of confusion over trademarks and copyrights here. Simply put a copyright protects a specific work, i.e a book, song, peice of software etc. and prevents you from using copies (or a very close approximation) of all or part of the work (this excludes fair use which governs usin...

cpu requirements, which will be fixed once i add threads Adding threads isn't nessecarily a magic bullet when it comes to improving performance, In fact depending on thier use it can reduce performance because of the extra overhead created by having to perform context switches between threads.

2mb down 128k up

just upgraded from 256k down because 2mbit cost the same amount, I love companies with weird anomalies in thier pricing

just tell me if you dont think these units are balenced out enough. :shock: you're joking right? I've never been one to subscribe to the argument that an uber unit being reeeaally expensive makes it balanced, I've always found that games that are balanced in this way to be rather annoying because g...
