Dan200 please be generous and add this or tiny pixels to your mod. :)

Many server owners would probably say, "please be generous, and don't!".

Currently it's possible to represent a regular ComputerCraft display using 1,938 bytes (assuming the data isn't compressed, and assuming it's packaged without wastage). That's for a 51x19 character display requiring two bytes to represent each character (one for the symbol, the other for the text and background colours).

A 320x200 pixel display, on the other hand, would require half a byte per pixel (assuming the same colour depth)... which adds up to 32,000 bytes (over sixteen times the data). Couple that with everything else that goes on in a Minecraft world, and the load on servers adds up.

It could be a system where tiles and their palettes are defined and drawn onto the screen as though they were characters. Everything in the screenshot appears to be in little 8x8 tiles with no more than 8 different colors in each.

does seem so

Haxorz I sent you PM, its 'bout the VN
[/OOC]
Arcum heads towards the rest of the group, on the way he finds a street merchant selling bread, meat, and wine.
"Well, I am quite hungry" Arcum thinks to himself as his stomach growls. He heads over to the merchant. "How much for a pound of
Venison?" Arcum asks the vendor. "Only 6 Silver" Replies the vendor. Arcum hands him the six silver as the merchant takes the venison and slices a piece off,
then scales it to make sure its 1 pound. Arcum takes the venison, then goes to the bench, sits and eats it.

[OOC]
I actually wrote a book before and Im working on another one too, so its pretty fun doing this RPG thing, and it might be pretty awesome to help write a VN, it combines my two favourite things. Coding and writing.

#242414 Play by Post RPG - Open play, control an NPC for a post

Posted by CaosTECH on 04 January 2016 - 10:43 PM in Forum Games

Arcum not knowing what to do.. wanders off into the forest. He walks for about half an hour and then finds a small hut. He examines the hut, then realizes that there's more huts. Arcum comes to the conclusion that this is a village, but what is odd about it is the fact that its destroyed, raided, dead. Arcum gets scared by the thought of what even happened here. He runs back to where he came from. When he bursts from the trees the nearby villagers are staring at him. He then looks around, then runs west, towards the center of the town.



#242214 How to make my program refresh itself constantly

Posted by CaosTECH on 02 January 2016 - 08:48 PM in Ask a Pro

Im looking at the wiki page for it... this actually might help. Now just to see how to implement it into the code. Thanks! I appreciate it :D



#242157 How to make my program refresh itself constantly

Posted by CaosTECH on 02 January 2016 - 02:30 AM in Ask a Pro

Hey, I have a question. As it says in the title... Im making my game to be better, and to do that I wanted to implement a way to make the game refresh itself without the character actually doing anything. Like now the game only refreshes when a key is pressed. I wanted to make it to where it refreshes or buffers, automatically without the player doing anything. This would also support the idea of having mobs and animated pixels/moving pixels

If you want I can post the code, but im not going to unless necessary because its a secret project. So if I did need to post the code, I would probably only post the part that im having trouble with or... yeah





Thanks in advance

[OOC] Oh dear lord, sorry I have not been on at all lately. Im going to be 100% honest... I totally forgot about everything computercraft related. I don't know how but I did. This website is now in my bookmarks so I dont forget about it now

@Lupus I read through the posts and saw that my character is still waiting for the Fletcher to accept the offer, Or am I able to take control of the Fletcher my self?

"Okay, this seems like a good deal.", Arcum says. He than takes two silver and lays it down next to the quiver.

[OOC]

Sorry I wasn't active for the past couple days, I was visiting family.

And for the Visual Novel thing, there haven't been any posts about it recently... Is it still going to happen, or have you moved the chat about it somewhere else? Or just completely forgot about it?

[/OOC]

Arcum retreats to a bench, as for his bow is broken, he decides to go back to the vendor after he finishes fixing the arrows back to their original form.
"Hey, won the tournament. But I kinda lost my bow. So I was hoping I could like, un-buy these? Or sell them back?" Arcum asks laying the quiver with arrows onto the stand.

#239651 Corrupt-A-Wish!

Posted by CaosTECH on 04 December 2015 - 01:46 AM in Forum Games

Granted, but its so delicious that everyone in the world wants it, so they kill eachother, and the population of the world was currently an Odd Number
(In case your wondering, this is bad because if everyone kills eachother then your the last one on the planet, all because of choco milk)
Beware the power of chocolate

I wish that my wish wished away wishes that didn't wish what I wished they would wish.

Arcum, realizing he has no more bow, thinks quickly of a battle tactic. He unhooks the stones from his arrows and uses the string from his arrows to create another ranged weapon. Every two stones he wraps some string around them to create his weapons
[OOC]
I don't know what type of weapon it is, its kinda like a sling shot but you swing it around in the air then throw at the opponent
[/OOC]
