Monsterized - A cheesy monster clone

Post by elektrikal »

hello.
Ok inspired in the old "monsters" game im trying to develop an Irrlicht based game which is nothing more than a 3D version of the old game...

I will take some screenshots and will post them soon.

Im in no way a programmer :cry: ...but i like 3D :) ...

I suppose nowhere is it written but as a small "how to" for new irrlicht devolopers especially those without any actual skills to speak of I'll lay it out for ya.

If you don't have a release don't bother posting here for 2 reasons.

1. it's nothing more then spam considering 90% of the projects listed here have never and will never exist.

2. Because there is no point unless you want somebody to beat you to the punch.


A release isn't whats really important what is important is if it will ever actually happen... if you have a project with some near final concepts I'm sure everyone wants to know...if you don't then nobody really cares.


I know as a noob (since i used to be one like everyone else) that the post button is irrisistable but without true purpose it's also infinitly irritating for everyone else so curb your rages for the love of god.


I'm not here to say if this project will actually happen honestly I don't care cause it doesn't sound like something interresting personally. I am here because this is a good oppertunity to explain the concept of proper posting on the forums and general respect of everyone in the community.

It may seem like a wonderland for flamers and spammers but I personally have learned the hard way how important it is to consider everyone else and how truely individual my feelings can be.

I fully agree with Midnight. When I started I also were so excited about everything and posted a lot of pointless posts. But now I know it's a way better to think if anything I write will have any sense for anyone.

It is because there are lots of unanswered topics/posts.

Anyway I'm looking forward to see some screenshots here. ;)

midnight was talking about me

Post by juliusctw »

Midnight was talking about noobs like me :D

i think when a person joins forum, even if they don't have any skills, they have join to be part of a community. Which means sharing your thoughts and ideas.

it is almost like a little kid always wanting to share their thoughts. It might not matter to the adults, but it matters to the kid.

i agree that people should try not posting unless they have something to show, (i have committed that crime myself many times)

perhaps we need a README in the project section on what NOT TO DO.

as much as all the worthless stuff i have posted, i stick with the forum b/c there "are" some people that do care. And that enough for me to keep going with the little that i have. :D

Yeah dude, you're right, some people care, some people don't. I reckon you should just do what YOU want to do and not what one or two people want the forum to be like. It's a community, not a dictatorship ;)

Those who want to ignore the mindless drivel of n00bs can do so, but if they don't post it then those who are interested won't get a look in!

I appologize if you believe in anyway I am insulting or ruining your topic I chose this post for two reasons firstly because you gave very little information to begin with making ideal for the cause and secondly because yes I assumed this was noob talk but thats just opinion and doesn't matter to the masses.

I am not attacking you personally nor your project I was just siezing oppertunity and trying to improve the quality of the site for all users not just one or two.

If you ask most people that have been around I'm a known flamer and spammer... this is a personal opinion of a few people.

My opinion on the subject is that they are ignorent but that is just an opinion and as such you can either agree or disagree with it that is your choice your right and your opinion and nobody has the right to bring you down for that.

I know this is an international site but I just want to point out that communist parties run for president in the USA every election because that is their opinion. it doesn't make it right but america is founded on the idea of "personal freedom" mean your opinions are valid and protected even though usually not recognized... the same applies for the internet even though it seems america only makes up a small percentage of the online community that is not relavent because the internet is free by nature (considering you don't break any of your countries laws).

I'm sorry I doubted the project but again thats not why I'm here.

I would like to point out JP's reference to dictatorship.

I believe this was an attack on me personally in an attempt to undermine my authority (use the dictionary before getting upset) on the irrlicht forum he obviously believes in some way that I demand people to listen to me as if that were even possible.

and for the record there are a lot of people concerned with this issue not just one or two try the majority of long time members to "most" forums online which is why moderators were invented which irrlicht has a shortage of. but thats not the issue either irrlicht is a very loose community where you can pretty much do what you like within reason forums by design usually get rid of spam over time when they are not replied to for a cartain amount of time... even though this takes years sometimes to refine the board into something more pure and continued spamming only slows this process which is where I came in.

hopefully this will clear up any more discussion about the subject which it was originally designed to do and again I applogized for making my stand here and now it really was just as inappropriete as the subject I'm discussing and I realize that now please just grant me encouragement and together AS A TEAM we can all make irrlicht a better place. 8)
