And now that the recompression is pretty much perfect (there might still be a bug or two lingering around), I've made a new Arena hack to show off Jade's map editing, and to prove that I haven't been bullshitting.

Unfortunately, both sides are correct in this matter. It's where it is because of some unwillingness to help AND the idiot n00bs being even n00bier because of the "Do my hack for me" button.

It is because of things like that (but not exclusively) is why TEK and DES were ripped apart to nothing. Part of the problem not being fixed, is that the problem isn't completely acknowledged yet. Want the problem to disappear? One way to get it in that direction would be to pull all copies of all game-specific editors, then never answer another question about them again. Extreme. Another would be just not ever answering any questions about game-specific editors. It's up to the user to figure out the editors' capability, not everybody else telling them how to do "x cool thing," or "OMG WHY CAN'T I FIGURE THIS OUT?!" That can also be attributed to people not reading the god damn readme's that come with editors.... I'm willing to bet that a majority of game-specific editor questions can be answered if people would just take time to read that little .txt file...

The point I think bbit is trying to get across: the n00bs must put more effort and more thinking into what they are doing. As to Disch's follow-up, I agree, some asking others to do the work for you. *looks at xcom*

There's also two points which I think have gone completely ignored. In order to learn the concept of programming in the first place (as a stepping stone to getting the assembly down) people program editors for testing their skills. This has come into common practice, although now it's leaning towards making NES emulators.

The second point, some n00bs just don't care.

In the end, I don't see this getting any better. If it does, it'll get worse first.

--Edit--
The quality of hacks is also a cause of the problem. For example, this hack titled "Extreem Manseckz," is a hack of some Sonic game for GBA. The author was like "dude, it's a GBA hack. How many others have done that? Love me for it." Not helping at all...

It had never happenned to me, but i was playing your hack the other day and i was being beaten to hell and back by the monsters. Turns out the game doesn't let you continue. Weird

That's strange. Although I guess I never did test scenarios with dead characters. There are so many bugs with this game, it's amazing it is held together at all.


Edit: Btw, about the spherical map, my guess is that it draws the tiles on the fly like FF1, using the first color of the palette of that particular tile. The sphere rotates very slowly, but it isn't that bad, seeing as you can see pretty far away in the map.

I've discovered that the map drawing and scrolling is more or less dependant on how much there is to draw. If it's just water, it draws fairly quickly. It also scrolls a little faster than a snails-pace, which is still really bad. That map style just isn't made for the slow speed like the NES processor. Either that or Nasir coded it badly...

The movie looked and sounded good to me. I don't know what you guys are talking about. I like this movie, even if some of the jokes were kinda stretching it...

It's either the Brooks Bollinger Error or Vinny Teste-AIR-de. Vinny hasn't exactly been in any kinds of training camps over the last 3 months either, so it's Brooks or nobody. Could be worse, it could be Brett Favre of the '91 season when he was still with the Falcons...

*bzzt* WRONG! They won 8 consecutive division titles, not 10. However, since they have no bullpen, progress in the postseason will be non-existant. However, since I don't want to cheer for the White Sox, I'd have to cheer for the Indians or Red Sox, whoever got in. I won't cheer for a team that beat my team back in '02 (think about it for a moment). Hard choice, really. Go Wild Card!

CF: It could potentially bring Erk back in here and go "LOLZ I TOLDZU SO TERN ON GZIP" or some other nonsense that he repeated 50 times in another thread. The point he was getting across is that some feature could very easily lighten some load on the server for loading time, etc. etc. etc.

My first guess would've been Doomsday, but IIRC that's actually Julian's regular hangout. Doomsday was much bigger, I think. I haven't seen the show in ten years, I think I'll have to go to SunCoast and find it the next time I'm in there. I don't think Wal Mart would have it.

I did manage to tape a few episodes though. "Sub Sonic" and quite a few from the second season, up until a couple before Doomsday. I miss not watching this show, and I'm sad that I'm not able to.

The Cardinals ate up the Padres until the Padres decided they wanted to show up in the 9th. Cardinals win 8-5. Peavy is done for the rest of the year with a broken rib.

The White Sox massacred the Red Sox, 14-2. Clement was hit with a come-backer, but remained in. The Contreras that couldn't beat the Red Sox didn't show up, he pitched 8 strong innings.

The Yankees beat the Angels, 4-2. This was the only close game of the day. Although if you just watched the first two innings, you would've have agreed with me.

You aren't winning by enough. Therefore, you aren't that great..........or something. Try harder! You must be winning by at least 55x times the opponents score!
