Lugaru on steam!

Time for this thread to become un-deadified. Why? http://store.steampowered.com/app/25010/ for MAC and PC. Major digital distribution platform! Major DRM platform... We know overgrowth is going to have a steam release, so i guess this wouldn't be too much of a surprise, but it does kind of come out ...

Re: Alpha 100 - place your bets!

John will film himself doing something humiliating in a funny outfit, with a silly voice-over. Hmm do I "want" a "sur-prise" if I am correct? When is the next comic segment? I only wish that John had actually bleached and used pink dye on his beard, not that shitty spray on stuff...

That's like saying if I changed my username to "Friendly_Turner" you wouldn't hate me so much. :P
To be honest the entire government collapsing isn't just a simple name change.

Re: Unofficial alpha 94, weekly build

is d for debug version? I don't think everybody has the debug version.
I don't think the debug version of the file is available from the visual cpp redistributable.

Are you supposed to distribute debug versions of programs built in visual c++?
Did you mean to distribute a debug build?

Re: Irritations and Failures in comparable games

Hmmm, depending on the game, I think there are issues with quick saves. But are the issues serious enough to force them to be turned off? I assume some of the ideas from this thread comes from Wolfire's own John. http://blog.wolfire.com/2009/09/how-saving-mechanics-affect-fun/ I personally don't thi...

Re: Awesomium Callbacks

Can you do polling in javascript? Less being able to send interrupts back to javascript that is the only other thing I can think of right now. Have javascript set Window.X and Window.Y to something invalid like -1 and just poll until both are positive. Window.GetPosition(); While( Window.X + Window....

Re: Awesomium Callbacks

Hmmm, after looking at the documentation for Awesomium, (and therefore destroying my previous assumptions and the forum reply that now will never exist) it looks like you receive a JavaScript object name for onCallback and you can set the object's properties using Awesomium::WebView::setObjectProper...

Re: Give advice to me- a noobie programmer

I guess you can use a c++ compiler, but I think it is best to start with C only code. (i.e. use fprintf() instead of std::cout << ) why? because you should never learn C++ wondering why << is an overloaded operator or what an overloaded operator even is. You should try to learn these topics in depth...

Re: Disgusted

Anyway, I was being ironic. I don't believe in omnipotence or omniscience any more than I believe in Star Wars. Assaultman just thinks I hold those qualities for some reason, he's adamant that I'm godlike. I, being the modest individual you all know me as, have been trying to dissuade him of that t...

Re: Disgusted

You just can't joke with this guy, he will rail against your poorly formed jokes if he can't really argue against your statements. I'm going to peg all that down to blind envy. Well, to worship an immortal may not technically be worshiping a god, but even worshiping a god may technically not be reli...
