  1. Welcome to GDU. He meant get familiar with the basics only, if you want to script in rgss then dont spend too long on learning ruby. Learn your basics then get into rgss.
  2. That was a long but fun coding binge :>

      Thats how my day went also :D. Starting to love JS.

  3. Hi all, After several hours of coding yesterday, I have extended the Games section to include blogs. Example. It was very challenging, and quite fun to code. I think it demonstrates the flexibility of the overall system and how extendable it is (not that you guys really understand, but I was able to make this really fast). I have added a new "blog" page in everyone's blog settings. For single-page games, you won't notice a thing. For the cooler people with pages enabled, the blog link will now be visible for everyone. Eg, Obviously this can be disabled (or renamed) in the ACP of your game page. Since the blogs are a link, single-page games will only have sidebar links. That's the only way for your visitors to get to your blogs (apart from links on the website, eg recent activity). You could always be cool and enable pages so you'll have a link in your menu to the blogs. All game pages will now have this in the sidebar: To create a blog, enter you ACP and the last menu on the sidebar will be "Blog". Here you're presented with a simple interface for writing up your blog. It is a simple textbox (what else) with all forum BBCode available (I do plan to create a comprehensive page displaying all BBCodes and how to use them). Creating blog entries will create two new sections of your site: A blog listing which displays all of your page posts The entry page, which displays the blog entry. Blog listing The entry page I think the best features of this system are the interactive ones and community (potential) involvement. People create game pages, get demotivated and leave them to rot. With this blog system, the game page gets a whole new purpose. Each blog post will show up on the Recent Activity on the forums, so people are going to see your blog entries. And the best feature of all..... Every entry has its own comments. It's exactly the same as posting a new topic every single for your game updates.. except not spam :) It brings all of your game content into one place. Don't forget to report bugs. This particular update is the biggest since release, and a lot of code was written into the system. It's extra prone to bugs. I did a once over through the system and everything was good apart from screenie uploads. Anything else please let me know asap. Enjoy :thumbsup:
  4. It took me all day, but I have integrated a blogging system in the games section that I think you guys are gona like, particularly since blog posts wil be integrated into the sidebar on the fourms. I know how you guys like attention for your games. I'll finish it up tomorrow morning and make an announcment.

  5. Ha. Wrong. So wrong. Much wrong. Many wrong. I haven't had the opportunity to be lazy in 2 years. The correct phrase is too busy. Bow to my greatness, minions.
  6. The whole thing is pretty ugly. Needs a lot of work.
  7. Costs aside, if you throttle it then customers will perceive the need to switch. Even if 4G costs less, its a better service and therefore naturally the price is higher. 3G will have to be quite inferior for people to switch. So whatever the costs, they can purposely create the inferior product to charge more. For example, lets say 3G and 4G are exactly the same. How do you charge more for the same thing? You make one worse, everyone forgets what its like, it appears like you've got anew technology and now you can charge more. Anyway. The benefits of living in a small country... we get 3G pretty much everywhere that's populated. Not really out in the country side.
  8. Given the track record with ISPs in the US, they're probably throttling it so you'll upgrade to 4g and spend more money. 3g here is pretty fast here. But you gotta be on a plan or post paid to get enough of it.
  9. Google: Recording everything we do and stiffling innovatice technology businesses by buying them out and closing them down. Monopolies are never good for consumers.

  10. Omar i deleted your post, because as predicted before entering this topic, it annoyed me. I am organizing the points. He contacted me about prizes before making this topic. Now we can be back on topic.
  11. You mean ultimate leet gamer.
  12. The image in the link is a battler. The gallery still exists. You can browse it here: http://www.gdunlimited.net/forums/gallery/
  13. Yes, I didn't attempt to fix this yet. I'm super busy :(
  14. I think a lot of the oldies remember us, we were quite busy back then. There's a lot of people still around from the early days which is quite surprising, you'd think they would have gone away after so many years.
  15. There's a couple of folks over at HBGames who have released 3 issues of an RPG Maker magazine. A lot have tried to do this, and so many have failed, but these have 3 really good quality issues. I saw a topic on creation asylum, and the poster mentioned a list of RPG Maker sites and that CA hadn't made the cut. Which was a pretty big shock, considering CA was one of the two (or three?) giants over 2004-2006 in RPG Maker. So, I was sure that we'd be forgotten as always, but I was pleasantly surprised with this little thing (pg19, Issue1): It's good to see that we weren't forgotten this time, and that the author did their research and got the founded date correct :) If the magazine keeps on going, It would be good to get the games section in there. But right now it's too lacking of core features such as design and blogging. It might be a suitable option for any developers who want to get their game a mention.

    Some is banned for closing the old ban topic that I brought back to life... it's like some mods cannot think how to apply common sense rules to novel situations.
  18. I don't believe that, but I'm glad you see my side of it.
  19. Do you actually realize how what you said is rude?
  20. Did you even read the first post?
