I had the same problem once. I moved php.ini out of c:/windows and into somewhere else and it worked fine.


Posted by Xkeeper
Consider changing:
extension_dir = "./ext/"

to:
extension_dir = "C:\php\ext\"


i.e., avoid relative directories.

Neither of those helped. It is definitely reading php.ini, though, as the error messages are in red.

Yeah, it sucks that motherboard manufacturers tend to decide "lol let's not tell anyone how to use the sensors so they can only use our shittastic program if we ever even get around to making one".

Katelyn, there'd have to be an Apple store here first. There's also the DRM issue; if they use it on iPod, iTunes, and other products I can't see them not using it in OSX.

Don't worry, that was a farely general description of what happens, and I honestly don't even percieve it as true.
Hell, episodes 18-??? seem to be the "My name is Al and I'm emo" show anyway. Still fun to watch.

Oh, right, nuts. Yeah pistachios own, but I generally only get them around Christmas. Not sure why.

I lol'd at the Mac keyboard my school had, which was basically a tub shape. Raised edges. It's uncomfortable and anything spilled in it will pool up, ensuring you're screwed!

Well, I finally got my SSBM castle back, after a complete search of my DVD backup. I discovered this:



Any ideas on how to fix this? I have replaced the beam with a solid color, and the hills turned solid light green. I can't figure it out, but I know the two are linked.
You've changed the texture coordinates, I would assume.

I get the feeling they just hack something together, then if it's fairly close to a power-of-two size, optimize until it fits that size. Maybe they'd save 32K by doing this and that but when that's in a ROM that's 1.8MB, they have to use a 2MB chip anyway, so there's no point spending extra time doing it. (Example numbers only. )

It's easy to visualize: imagine a square, with a line that moves from the left to right egde and goes up and down as it does. The program is going to copy this square and tile it horizontally. You have to ensure the line is at the same height at the left and right edge, or else there'll be a big jump where it tiles. Same as making tiling backgrounds. The line's height is the sound's frequency.

Problem with automatic disassembly of a SNES game is we have the register sizes to worry about. And Snes9x traces are going to be very redundant (hello 1500000 copies of vblank interrupt) and contain a lot of unnecessary information. Doing it manually might be better. Start with a hexdump in a text file, find and label all the data sections, then people choose a subroutine and disassemble it. Care should be taken to avoid disassembling the same routine twice by two people; maybe one person works on sprite code while someone else looks at the overworld and so on.

We'd want to create lookup tables like the existing RAM/ROM maps (but they'll need a bit of verification, as I think there's some incorrect information in there). Any time something references an unknown address, label it in some format like "_7E0123", then when we figure out the purpose of that address, update the table and replace all instances of that label with a proper name. In doing so we also create a complete memory map.

Plus there's the fact that the most popular games have already been translated by rom hackers, which means the official translators would only have to polish off the rough edges and remove all the hackers' stupid in-jokes (DE-JAP!).

As true as this is, if I were doing a professional translation, I wouldn't base it on some hacker's that may or may not be accurate.


As opposed to something that would actually be technical and complicated, like adding region-specific coding to convert games into a video format that noone outside Europe gives a damn about (PAL WHINERS!).

Not that I'm calling anyone here a PAL whiner. But they're out there, constantly boo-hooing about how noone will give them special attention because their continent is too stupid to convert to NTSC like the rest of the world.

Again this is true, but it is pretty stupid that Nintendo couldn't take an extra step to make the games not have the same problems they did ages ago. It's kind of a rip.

Hm, I wonder if they'd release updated versions of old games, like they did ages ago with Mario All-Stars. Same game, new graphics and sound. That'd rock.

I did see a video once where the guy almost completely soaked the girl's entire body of cum. It made me somewhat jealous? O_o
How big was she?


Though it doesn't matter TOO much. Not like orgasms are the core of life.
Well they are an essential part of the creation of life...

1986. My stepmom or whatever the appropriate term is. She sure knows how to piss a person off.
1987. Discovering on Monday that two cans of soup exploded in my filing cabinet on Friday, coating everything in that drawer with goo which after 3 days smells terrible. (Yes, I cleaned it up. )
1988. Not being able to remember awesome dreams.

Vanilla Coke > Cherry Coke > Pepsi > Coke. Ordinary Coke is far too acidic for me, Pepsi is nice and smooth. However, the flavoured Cokes (which I never see anymore) don't have this issue and taste damn good.

Also, cans > bottles. They taste better from cans, for some reason.

And Mountain Dew CR > Mountain Dew > *.

I find during dreams the logic part of your brain is turned off, so you never really notice that something doesn't make sense. When it does turn on, you get lucid dreams (awesome), but I always wake up soon after.

I recently dreamed I won the lottery, but don't remember what I did with the money.

SMB had some awesome glitches/Game Genie codes as a result, too.

Do all your tooltips look like that? It looks as though some extension has taken over them.

This extension wraps too. I can read all of #7 without opening Element Properties, maximizing, and dragging! And it wraps to 4 lines instead of one huge one, bonus!

And that, kids, is why I use Firefox.
