| I go by Jagori, as I'm sure you can see, and I just found out about these boards from GoldenYoshi's page of SMW+ hacks. I'm working on a set of levels myself, but I'm sure they'll be nowhere near as good as those experienced level designers who post around here. Hmm.. about me, eh.. I'm a semi-professional musician living in Canada. My favorite sports are rock climbing, whitewater kayaking, and downhill skiing, which is unfortunate since I live in Saskatchewan. Anyway, I hope to improve my SMW-hacking skills and hopefully sooner or later I'll have a decent hack to submit to the collection. Till next time! |

| If you know (or are willing to learn) Java, Netbeans IDE is a good way to do GUI. After I figured out the Netbeans interface, which is a little strange to begin, the thought crossed my mind that it was like VB, only in Java. That is to say, you can create a form, and drag-and-drop buttons, text boxes, etc. onto it and it handles all the code for them. It's a little less simple than VB, but I'd say it's more powerful. Plus, it's free! The only problem is that Netbeans is a little resource-intensive. If you have a fast computer ( 1+ GHz ) it won't be a problem. | |||

| Ooh, howbout this... he had the operation to prevent him from going blind and the handkerchief was around his eyes... he was in the train, and after however many hours he could take the handkerchief off, so he did.... right when the train was in a tunnel, which made it dark.. so he thought he had gone blind anyway and didn't want to live with that. I know a couple of these, so if there's ever a shortage I'll throw one into the field  (edited by Jagori on 04-18-04 04:13 AM) |

| Oh, I know it's not hard. I learned how to use it in about four hours, with no previous Java experience (only C++), and I just keep teaching myself as I go. That's why I suggested it Plus, NetBeans makes it very easy once you learn your way around the IDE. |

| Don't have to get them from somewhere else. If you just have the two glasses, and put a teaspoon of glass A in glass B and then put a teaspoon from glass B into glass A, they'll have equal contaminations. Unless I made a mistake working it out |

| The thing is, when you add some of A to B, you decrease the total amount of substance in glass A and increase the total amount in B. And unless I'm mistaken, the ratios work out. | |||

| Say the first glass has 10 teaspoons of A in it, and the other one has 10 teaspoons of B in it (this will work with any amount of teaspoons, but I'm just plugging in 10 for example's sake). You take one teaspoon from A and put it in B. Now the first glass has 9 teaspoons of A, and the second has 10 of B and one of A, for a total of 11 teaspoons. Now if you take a teaspoon from the second glass, that teaspoon will be 10/11 B and 1/11 A. Put that back into the first glass and you have 9 1/11 A and 10/11 B, for a total of 10 teaspoons of stuff. Subtracting what you took from the second glass leaves you with (10 - 10/11) B and (1 - 1/11) A, or 9 1/11 B and 10/11 A. So now glass 1 has 9 1/11 A and 10/11 B, and glass 2 has 9 1/11 B and 10/11 A. Equal contamination. If you want to use any amount other than 10, it should work (I just tried it with 15 and 20).. or even if you want to make a general formula, plug in 'x' and it should still work out. Feel free to point out mathematical errors (edited by Jagori on 04-19-04 05:32 PM) |

| I use Bloodshed Dev C++. Actually, I normally use MS Visual Studio for C++, but I got Bloodshed because it can also compile C. Very good free IDE. | |||

| It can? I'm using MS Visual C++ 6.0 and I can't find it... where would I be able to change this setting? (and I've tried just straight up compiling a C file, and it didn't work). Even if it does work, that's still the reason I got Bloodshed |

KATW gave me the points for the water/wine one because I got it right first try and backed up my answer, instead of just guessing all possible combinations. But I really don't care about the points, so if they're so important to you, and KATW wants to give them to you then I'm fine with that. I'm just here for the puzzles Originally posted by tinzeeeNo, the police are regular, competent police officers. (edited by Jagori on 04-20-04 02:38 PM) |

| This may have already been asked, but I didn't see it so I'm asking anyway When I make a vertical level, there are always large garbled spots where the background pattern repeats. They don't show up in LM, but when I play the game they're pretty obvious. Is there some kind of index I have to change to fix this, or maybe editing the background itself? Thanks! |

Thanks, I seem to have missed that in the help file, which is strange now that I look again. Oops  (edited by Jagori on 04-20-04 04:15 PM) |

| Look back to my post for a mathematical proof that they have equal contamination after mixing for 10, 15, and 20 teaspoons to start with. If you want, I can give you a general formula that shows you that no matter the original amount of water and wine, as long as the amount in both glasses is equal to begin with then they will have equal contaminations after mixing. Or you could just take my word for it. (edited by Jagori on 04-20-04 10:23 PM) |

| OK... math time folks. Glass A has x teaspoons of water (referred to as a). Glass B has x teaspoons of wine (referred to as b). Glass A: (x)a + 0b Glass B: 0a + (x)b Now, we take one teaspoon from A and put it into B. That gives us: Glass A: (x-1)a + 0b Glass B: 1a + (x)b Note that glass B has a total of (x+1) teaspoons in it. Glass B consists of x parts wine, and 1 part water... so a teaspoon of glass B will be (1/x+1)a + (x/x+1)b. Putting this into glass A, we get: ((x-1) + (1/x+1)a) + (x/x+1)b = ((x^2 - 1 + 1)/(x+1))a + (x/x+1)b = (x^2/x+1)a + (x/x+1)b Glass B is left with: (1 - 1/x+1)a + (x - x/x+1)b = (x/x+1)a + (x^2 + x -x)/(x+1)b = (x/x+1)a + (x^2)/(x+1)b Final situation: Glass A: (x^2/x+1)a + (x/x+1)b Glass B: (x/x+1)a + (x^2/x+1)b You'll notice that the amount of a in glass A is the same as the amount of b in glass B. Same goes for the b in glass A and a in glass B. In other words, equal contamination. Plug in ANY number for x and this will work. PROOF that they are equal after the mixing, without getting the wine and water from anywhere but the glasses themselves. Enjoy. Now, can't we get on to the next puzzle?

No worries, blackfire. Glad we got it worked out Originally posted by Edsgravy0 No, the criminal does not have any authority status. His room is not impregnable. It would be possible for the police to force their way into his room. |
