----------------------------------- Cervantes Fri Jan 23, 2004 4:58 pm [FP] Animation Story - Fred the Tap Dancer ----------------------------------- Enjoy the adventures of Fred, the hyper-active tap dancer. This is my Gr. 10 computer science FP, hope you like it! ----------------------------------- AsianSensation Fri Jan 23, 2004 5:43 pm ----------------------------------- if it were interactive, then it would have been better, also, the first time I ran it, it couldn't do anything at all, so a help file might be nice as well, other than that, I could see you putting alot of effort into this. ----------------------------------- sport Fri Jan 23, 2004 7:31 pm ----------------------------------- Cool story. Why do you show the user mouse pointer at the end and do not close the run window? ----------------------------------- Cervantes Fri Jan 23, 2004 8:55 pm ----------------------------------- no I haven't put a whole lot of effort into making this program totally bug prood (I dunno about that Asian, I had no trouble with it not doing anything at the start, maybe something to do with the zip file?) Sport : Show the mouse pointer at the end? close the window?? There is no end!! he just keeps going and going and going!!! :) ----------------------------------- Tony Fri Jan 23, 2004 9:22 pm ----------------------------------- it's an interesting idea and is kinda funny for the first bit... but I find it to be too slow, repeatitive and have crappy graphics. I think there's quite of bit of room for improvement. ----------------------------------- Amailer Fri Jan 23, 2004 9:24 pm ----------------------------------- Im giving you AVG cuz, well i can't do that :( but hey i haven't learned turing yet...you can improve on the graphics ;D (and try not make him so hyper that his moving everytime :?) ----------------------------------- DanShadow Fri Jan 23, 2004 11:17 pm ----------------------------------- I vote Average...basically because its pretty easy to do that. Although I really like your usage of the graphics, it actually m akes it look quite good! ----------------------------------- Cervantes Sat Jan 24, 2004 11:33 am ----------------------------------- Amailer I have AVG... why would you give me it?? also Amailer, thats the point!! he's a hyper active tap dancer!! ----------------------------------- Amailer Sat Jan 24, 2004 11:34 am ----------------------------------- Amailer I have AVG... why would you give me it?? also Amailer, thats the point!! he's a hyper active tap dancer!! i gave you avg because..... :roll: idk lol just wanted to :S either way. stil is good-- hyper eh hmm ic ----------------------------------- Cervantes Sat Jan 24, 2004 12:01 pm ----------------------------------- oooooooo lol now i get it.. by AVG i thought you meant AVG the anti-virus program :lol: ----------------------------------- DanShadow Sat Jan 24, 2004 2:21 pm ----------------------------------- hahaha...lol AVG= Average genius :wink: ----------------------------------- Maverick Sat Jan 24, 2004 3:03 pm ----------------------------------- The pong is technically impossible. When I put in 5 difficulty the paddle cant even move fast enough to hit the ball. Although I DO like the music!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 ----------------------------------- Cervantes Sat Jan 24, 2004 5:51 pm ----------------------------------- um, wrong thread? ----------------------------------- Maverick Sat Jan 24, 2004 8:21 pm ----------------------------------- damn ----------------------------------- shorthair Sat Jan 24, 2004 8:28 pm ----------------------------------- MAveric kyou know your just spamming for bits , its all a big scam , come on admit it , oh by the the way cervantes , i give it a , AVG >< GOOD its in between so its ALRIGHT ----------------------------------- Maverick Sun Jan 25, 2004 8:01 pm ----------------------------------- Yes thats exactly what im doing. We're not all as sick as you shorthair. And if anyone is a spammer it would be you. 420 bits or somthing like that in just over a month. jeez. ----------------------------------- shorthair Sun Jan 25, 2004 8:09 pm ----------------------------------- dont you mean posts , and i dont spam that much , only on occasion when a small answer is needed , most my posts are in general discussion, im just always on the site , if ou get dan t osee my ip log , then you will se that i idle on compsci , for about 5-6 hours a day minimum , and that i post all the time , ----------------------------------- Maverick Sun Jan 25, 2004 10:51 pm ----------------------------------- oh ya posts. But i guess if ur on 6 hours a day you could get that many. ----------------------------------- shorthair Sun Jan 25, 2004 10:55 pm ----------------------------------- i just always lookin around compsci , and right now im still hooked , probably it will eventualy die down to once a week but , around exam time peopel are always askin for help , someones gotta hbe there to help , and take care of the spammers , ( Did anyone here about that today ) HACKER DAN , you should tell everyone the wonderful story of our newest spammers ----------------------------------- Cervantes Mon Jan 26, 2004 6:35 pm ----------------------------------- yay a story :D:D:D:D speaking of which I'm gunna mosey on over to the General Discussion and get some Story's going!! :) ----------------------------------- Paul Tue Jan 27, 2004 10:43 pm ----------------------------------- I suppose the narration could be better, "Thats odd, he seems to be moving towards his house"? ----------------------------------- Cervantes Wed Jan 28, 2004 8:47 am ----------------------------------- dammit paulbian you're ruining the plot! That was an essential element and now its ruined! I blame you. :P (jk) no one wants Fred to stop his tap dancing, there would be no entertainment! So when Fred starts moving towards his house to go inside, everyone gets worried! ----------------------------------- shorthair Wed Jan 28, 2004 9:26 am ----------------------------------- i got worried , fred and i are close pals from way back when , if he stopped dancing ,that would ruin everything ----------------------------------- Cervantes Wed Jan 28, 2004 9:34 am ----------------------------------- Fred's quite the popular guy isn't he? ----------------------------------- shorthair Wed Jan 28, 2004 10:00 am ----------------------------------- id have to agree , how many lines of code was the animation of fred ----------------------------------- Cervantes Wed Jan 28, 2004 10:29 am ----------------------------------- fred took a lot of code... (the greedy bas... guy) including comments it was about 700 lines.. prolly woulda been a LOT less if I had put pictures into an array... ----------------------------------- Martin Wed Feb 11, 2004 10:06 pm ----------------------------------- I liked it. Good use of layering. Now you have to figure out how to speed it up :p ----------------------------------- Cervantes Thu Feb 12, 2004 3:44 pm ----------------------------------- make the delay of certain parts shorter.. not hard at all :| unless that's not what you mean.. :?: ----------------------------------- josh Sat Feb 14, 2004 6:27 pm ----------------------------------- this is a little repetative but I think it is pretty cool. Maybe make it interactive (different kinds of dances) and add some sound (music) ----------------------------------- Paul Sat Feb 14, 2004 6:49 pm ----------------------------------- this is a little repetative but I think it is pretty cool. I thought it goes on forever? doesn't it? Maybe random movements lol, I don't know if thats possible on a dancing level. ----------------------------------- Cervantes Sat Feb 14, 2004 7:39 pm ----------------------------------- Yes it does go on forever. As for interactive, Fred doesn't respond to stimuli well. If you zap him with an electric shock with a voltage of 100 volts, all he does is tap dance faster! If you send the hounds after him, he mearly dies in his tap-dancing. :P Yes I could make it interactive, but like Maverick said you don't really want to go back to code that you made a long time ago because its so messy and gross :eh: ----------------------------------- the_short1 Wed Mar 17, 2004 12:27 am ----------------------------------- i like the animations... hard to get the layering right... and i like the chimney climb... and its very smooth.... but,.... i only gave it average... cuz the graphcis could be a little better.. and sound... and ...intereactive... but gj anyways..,. ----------------------------------- blackwhite Tue Jul 13, 2004 5:03 pm ----------------------------------- hahahahaha.... a lot of the guys in my class would have died watching that. hehehe
