----------------------------------- LovelyCrap Thu Oct 23, 2003 10:12 pm Hello ----------------------------------- This is my first post/thread and I started it with the intention of getting to know everyone. :D I heard about this site through my friend's from school. I finally decided to check out the site today because I just started Turing and I thought it would be nice to get all of the introductions out of the way so when I have some real questions, I'd be ready to post 'em. I'm not much of a programmer but I'm one heck of a good technician. :lol: :wink: BTW, can someone explain the "bits" thing? I'm sure it's probably documented somewhere but I'm too lazy to find it... :roll: Go Massey! w00t! ----------------------------------- bugzpodder Thu Oct 23, 2003 10:20 pm ----------------------------------- I'm not much of a programmer but I'm one heck of a good technician i am opposite :vi: can someone explain the "bits" thing? you can use them to buy stuff from the shops... suck up to the mods to get lotso bits ----------------------------------- Tony Thu Oct 23, 2003 10:20 pm ----------------------------------- massey eh? Did Martin tell you about the site? Although there's quite a bit of people from Massey over here :lol: Anyways, I'm Tony - co-creator and co-admin of this website. Welcome 8) Site is also run by Dan... You'll hear quite a bit about his spelling mistakes :wink: Bits are like points. You get them for participation in discussions. You can't do much with them, though you could "buy" yourself some text effect for your nick. Be warned! - you can't sell them back.. .as in you get no bits back. You can also donate bits to other users. Mazer is a good person to mootch bits off. He doesn't care for them, but posts quite a bit :lol: ----------------------------------- bugzpodder Thu Oct 23, 2003 10:23 pm ----------------------------------- how do you figure massey tony? :? ----------------------------------- Tony Thu Oct 23, 2003 10:25 pm Re: Hello ----------------------------------- Go Massey! w00t! ----------------------------------- Homer_simpson Thu Oct 23, 2003 10:36 pm ----------------------------------- ohoy ohoy... welcome... i'm the potsmoker in these forums... i know some basics of phreaking and hacking... do programing...and some hardware stuffs sometimes... yeah that is all... :hb: ----------------------------------- AsianSensation Thu Oct 23, 2003 10:54 pm ----------------------------------- funny thing is, I think I have you on my MSN list, but i don't know who you are..... :think: anyways, yeah, there are a bunch of people from Massey, most of them are pretty good programmers, so ask all the questions you need to, we'd be glad to answer you. ----------------------------------- Martin Fri Oct 24, 2003 12:17 am ----------------------------------- I'm Martin :) Welcome to CompSci :) ----------------------------------- Catalyst Fri Oct 24, 2003 6:48 am ----------------------------------- Hello ----------------------------------- Tony Fri Oct 24, 2003 8:32 am ----------------------------------- Hello umm... :think: yeah, Catalyst doesn't say much, but he's a heck of a programmer. He can write up some amazing 3D engine code in turing :lol: ----------------------------------- Amailer Fri Oct 24, 2003 12:13 pm ----------------------------------- What up! welcoem to compsci ;D HMM for more info.....check my profile :D ----------------------------------- Mazer Fri Oct 24, 2003 3:38 pm ----------------------------------- welcome to the forums. have fun, and learn stuff. PS: bits are VERY important. trust me. here, have some of mine... ----------------------------------- LovelyCrap Fri Oct 24, 2003 4:43 pm ----------------------------------- Thanks for the warm welcome. I probably will just lurk a lot at first, until I've gotten somewhat proficient at Turing, at which point I will commence with the spamming. :wink: funny thing is, I think I have you on my MSN list, but i don't know who you are..... :think: anyways, yeah, there are a bunch of people from Massey, most of them are pretty good programmers, so ask all the questions you need to, we'd be glad to answer you. You disappoint me Meng. Big fat clue: I went you your grade school. And whats this about you getting a new computer? I thought I was gonna build you a pimprig..... Ohh well, I guess you will just have to live with a crappy pre-built.... :roll: :wink: Hello umm... :think: yeah, Catalyst doesn't say much, but he's a heck of a programmer. He can write up some amazing 3D engine code in turing :lol: Is the 3D engine code in the submissions forum? Turing has been a huge bore for me so far but the possibility of a 3D engine is making Computer Science sound like a fun class.... ----------------------------------- AsianSensation Fri Oct 24, 2003 6:50 pm ----------------------------------- :doh: Mike? for real? That was you? man, I need to get my eyes checked or something.... ----------------------------------- Dan Fri Oct 24, 2003 10:08 pm ----------------------------------- Hi i am Dan, i am the one that gets blamed if anything has a bug in it on the site or stops wrok :evil: i am also kind of the "protector" of this site wich means if you try to hack it or mess with it i come after intill you got nothing left of you online :twisted: as for the 3d engion (i am asoming for turing), i bivle the code is in the tutorials fourm. the search thing will help you out alot if you are in need. ----------------------------------- StrikerMagazine Wed Oct 29, 2003 11:46 pm ----------------------------------- hi.. i'm from massey too ^^ (new here) i'm not sure exactly who you are but chances are you're in one of my classes. for who i am- andy's already got me figured out =) ----------------------------------- hackman Thu Oct 30, 2003 11:31 am ----------------------------------- Hello, im not the greatest programer yet but im learning. I used to be great with hacking computer games and N64 games with hex editors and gamesharks. If anyone has ever used a gameshark for the first zelda game for N64 they might have seen my "Use a sword on your horse" code. It was a prety popular code a few years ago. Sadly my gameshark is broken and i forget all the forums i posted it on, so it's lost forever :( ----------------------------------- Dan Thu Oct 30, 2003 12:11 pm ----------------------------------- ah, i rember messing with the 64. if you can get one of thous game sharks with a computer prot on the back, then you can have some real fun: like downloading the hole game to your pc, stealing images from it and lots more fun stuff. to bad there is not a good way to mess with the GC other then playing with the packets on online games for it :evil:
