<0> _nx, I've spent dozen & dozens of hours on his game.
<0> Just playing
<1> That's... very small by MMORPG standards =)
<1> I'm glad you enjoyed it though
<0> _nx, understood. But one programmer, and a handfull of artists? You got to admire that.
<1> I do
<1> The Greek philosopher Anaxagora stated that lying on the right side during *** would yield male offspring. Centuries later French aristocrats amputated their left testicle. Anaxagora was killed by a stone dropped by a crow; doubtless a reincarnation of a French noble who cut off his left testicle and then had 6 daughters in a row.

<3> randel, the only thing the "collector's edition" gets you is some nifty out of date manual, some artwork, and to choose between an in-game pet.
<3> and just FYI there's also some parental controls that let you give a window to sign on and off.
<4> panda is pretty awesome though
<3> I have a rare white kitten =]
<4> i had a whole harem!
<4> of white kittens that is
<4> gg lil timmy
<3> =]
<3> the worg pup *used* to be the coolest.
<3> he'd actually attack with you
<5> are there any real businesspeople in channel? i need to ask a few questions about normal rates
<4> you might try pming narris
<3> StoneCydh, I can help you with design/graphics... programming, not so much so
<6> StoneCydh, what kind of business
<5> Software.
<5> But more importantly, it's not about the actual work, it's about financing.
<5> I'm worried my prospective VC is trying to take me for a fool.
<5> The percentages seem all wrong.
<1> StoneCydh, don't ask us, go find another VC and see what his rates are.
<5> well, i was just hoping someone in here had already done this and could talk to me in private about it.
<1> sadly not
<5> getting rates from a vc takes weeks.
<5> hell, i can't even find more than two in san diego to just ask questions of.
<4> still looking for someone to consult StoneCydh?
<7> s/consult/insult
<7> :D
<4> StoneCydh always has someone to insult

<9> rq?

<11> Hello :)
<12> Why hello there Mr. [Relic]. Perhaps you should've knocked first.
<0> Uggh, I can not believe how much money Blizzard is ****ing out of me. WoW retail was $50 each. Month by month is $14.99.
<10> I wish I had the time play MMORPG's.
<10> Bed time, night all.
<13> ****er!
<13> hr hr :D
<14> allumomzen
<15> any calc folks around? trying to figure something out
<15> ie: if i am taking the derivative of a composite function, ie d/dx arcsin(f(x)) do i apply the composite rule in addition to the arcsin(f(x)) rule?
<13> whoooosh
<13> risis, think u better off ask in #maths
<13> or #math
<13> I think math is main channel..
<15> i got the boot , insta-ban for some odd reason
<13> yeh me too
<13> I don't know why
<15> no clue why never been in there before *shrug*
<13> must have been my host
<13> oh well
<13> but I guess those ppl are probably retarded anyway
<13> haha
<13> math(s)
<13> should be with s
<16> DirectX or OpenGl for games ?
<17> EU: yes!
<16> ???
<15> any of you gone the way of shareware for a business model? im thinking about trying it out and seeing if it works better than trying to hunt down these small game contracts ive been doing
<13> EU are u asking
<13> which one is better?
<16> k
<13> OpenGL is easier to understand, and code, but slower, and less feature than DX
<13> DX, harder to code, but more features.
<16> OpenGL can work with java ?
<13> yes
<13> there are many web-based OGL apps
<16> Only with java ?
<13> like Shout3D
<13> no
<13> works with almost anything
<16> k
<13> ppl been attaching OGL to almost any device
<13> mobile device
<13> PC, mac, unix,
<13> etc etc
<16> But what about DirectX ?
<13> DX only works on microsoft based platform
<13> eg. XBOX, PC
<13> that's all
<13> risis, I thought about it
<13> shareware is still feasible model
<13> there are many games/company that benefit and profit from it still in these days
<13> small game company
<16> Dr_Rambo, where can I find an DirectX tutorial for the absolute beginner ?
<15> outside of seeking any kind of contract, shareware seems to be the 300lb gorilla, purchase only w/ a demo as well, but isn't this just a derivative of shareware model? (not tyring to be funny w/ the derivative lingo)
<17> gnight!
<13> EU
<13> erm..
<13> search google?
<13> LOL
<13> I am no coder, I just know these differences after working with coder for so many years
<13> ask ppl here, most are dx coders I Think
<16> k, Dr_Rambo, thank you for your answers
<16> So you are... ?
<13> game artist
<13> risis, I can only think of this game as the most successful modern shareware game
<13> AirStrike 3D: Operation WAT
<13> http://www.divogames.com/games/airstrike/
<13> it was (and probably still is) the top selling shareware game
<13> another one I thought of that is extremely popular.. is the pool game genre
<13> 3D Live Pool
<13> judging from these game, with little or low development cost
<13> shareware model ofcourse.. works
<13> if you try to do ANY kind of FPS with shareware model, i doubt it can work in this day and age
<13> if you don't a strong financial backing and expect to bleed cash for quite some time..
<13> EU, start with OpenGL
<13> first
<13> it's easier if you are absoulte coding beginner
<13> www.opengl.org
<13> nehe.gamedev.net
<12> rumour has it nehe.gamedev.net is Nehe
<18> lo komrades in game development
<13> hehe
<18> isn't deerhunter still the reigning king of shareware/bargain bin games
<13> I thought deerhunter isn't shareware
<13> it's a boxed game
<13> bargain bin yeh
<13> but it's not really shareware ONLY distribution model
<18> tru
<13> and I don't think deerhunter is really all that popular
<13> it was erm.. strangely popular back in 98
<13> when it first came out
<18> that guy that coded deerhunter used to come in #gamecode before we moved here
<13> I saw my roomate playing it for hours to no end
<13> LOL
<18> said he didn't make **** off it, his publisher robbed him
<13> but I havn't seen anyone playing it since.. and personally I dont' find it fun at all
<13> ah
<13> well
<13> he did spawn the whole "hunting game" genre industry after all
<18> yeah
<13> there are so many countless deerhunting clones
<13> even in ARCADE
