...and there's a 100% chance no one remembers who the hell I am.

:D

I started a new project, but I haven't done anything with ZZT for so long, I forgot some stuff.

Right now, all I need to know is a fast way to make a window have a dramatic explosion without the use of several objects. Ideas?

Thanks.

Try using slime in combination with a few objects altering it or something.

Hey, welcome! Mind telling us a bit about your past involvement with ZZT?

i got nothing except for the old "invisible wall" trick. Or you could try using alot of objects in one square and have them change chars to a few cool explosion like symbols and have them change colors. idk, thats my idea

I used to lurk randomly on the message boards and I contributed around 4 to 6 games. They're MIA now.

O.O

*aims AK-47 at next person to ask that question*

EDIT: And I really like that title. Yeah. I can't wait to change it. >_>

Go to the main page and click on your user title to change it:

im sorta assuming this by your font, but.. are you using linux quantum p?

And the default style no less.

It's all about Clecky 2.

That screenshot was taken on a Mac, though the next version of OS X will technically be Unix, and now and then you see a feature that sounds awfully familiar...

(I love how the video on that page ends with the words "Only on Leopard", when virtual desktops are a feature found in any decent window manager on Linux.)

I do fool around with Linux a bit. I've got an old PC running Ubuntu - runs a bit slow, but it's nice if someone just needs to check their email or something.

And I changed the style to default style for the screenshot, just so the screenshot would look like what I'm assuming Felix is using (unless he's changed it already). I use minimal or classic most of the time - default is too dark and looks like plastic.

haha only on leopard my ass!

Ubuntu is fun i guess, im dualbooting the new one on my laptop. Trying to get wireless to work.... but o well.

So felix, what games did you make in the past, and what are you planning on unleashing?

Wow! Hey Guys! I Can't Believe ZZT Is Still Alive!

Posted: **Tue Aug 14, 2007 11:41 am**

live and loin!

personally i prefer "monochrome" style, or failing that, "classic"
