Ugh, VC++ is unnessisary money spent, or unnessisary software piracy, keep the ickyness away! Yes, I did get it to compile, everything but the icon 'cause I was too lazy to find it ^_^ Which part can't you get to link? Compiling the GUIChan library, or ManaWorld itself? I'm gonna assume you ment gcn...

Apparently some people with dev-cpp/mingw are having trouble with the latest cvs releases that require guichan. I'd just like to remind anyone with said problems that in the platform.hpp file, _declspec(dllexport) doesn't work so well with mingw. you need __declspec(dllexport). Thats one more _ symb...

KTH5, while I agree keyboard control shouldn't be limited, the game controls should not be based on your personal problems :p Using a mouse for several hours shouldn't cause soreness unless you have poor posture ect. Trust me, I spend enough hours a day working with a mouse to know :p Nevermind all ...

Well, a draggable "window" system like ragnarok with docking and autohide features. Let the user decide what they want :news tongue: If the windows can attach to eachother and the sides its all good. Also SOM like circular menus could be good for game elements that require faster access (H...

No no bad bad bad!

A non blocking socket on linux without select is BAD. You'll kill your preformance!

Fine fine, since you all seem to get lost on this part I'll go finish installing linux on my laptop :p

Wish I never switched that laptop back to win 2k, that was a bad bad idea.

Shouldn't they lock up the programmers that left the holes instead, virus writters just show people where they screwed up, I guess it depends on how you look at them. Anyway if your going to use windows then you should be spending half your time making sure it's secure. :P Quite obviously NOT. You ...

It all depends on which java vm you use. But on most I'd assume the garbage collector runs reasonably often, mostly when the program is idle, or when the program is trying to allocate more memory. So, if you set your garbage collector to run when the program is idle or more memory is requested, what...

I think the thing most people have trouble with is the meaning of "free" as used in the gnu gpl. The fact that it is GPL does not mean I can not sell GPLed software for lots and lots of money. It also doesn't mean you can break the GPL as long as your not making money off of it.

Object Oriented, Garbage collecting ect.

All right, what are your opinions? How many people here have really worked with object oriented programming and can define what it means in thier own words? What does everyone think about oop? How about garbage collection, how do you all feel about it and similar automatic and semi-automatic methods...

Why redesign the wheel eh? it works best when round.

So you have to convert the maps to server format instead of the server just loading what it needs from the complex format?

So your map format is essencially the .gat format (as I documented on the eAthena forum for ya ;) ) without the extra 4 floats for the 3d stuff eh?

What about doodads and thingamagigs and stuff that make the map look all pretty like different tilesets and stuff... How is that all gonna be done?
