The first game I created.

Hi,
I created a game in java about 8 months ago or so. This is my first attempt at a game. It is kind of a cross between Missle Command and Asteroids, (Yeah, I know.. another space game). If any of you have the chance please check it outand let me know your opinion. Any feedback, good or bad is appreciated.
Controls:
Mouse moves ship from left to right.
Click to shoot.
Move mouse outside of Applet to pause the game.

Hey,
If had my source code, I would show it to you, but unfortunately I forgot to back it up before I formatted my hard drive. I think it may be on a disc somewhere, but that could be anywhere. I wrote a copy of PONG in java that uses a thread. I can show you that if you want. I also have a very bad version of the game you played. I can give you that source code if you want it, but it is terrible and may lead you in the wrong direction.
If you have any specific questions about how I did something in my game, please feel free ask and I will try to explain as best I can.
Dave

    the first time you create account, always need a credit card? the option of "NONE" is hidden
    my friend cant download apps, because of that reason.

    No you don't always need to enter credit card details, it just depends upon how you create the account - unless the instructions on this page are followed when creating a new account : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534
    then you will need to entercredit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used to download any item from the store.
    If you don't have or don't want to enter credit card details then you will need to create a new account, and this time use the instructions on that HT2534 page when creating it. If you want to use the same email address then you will need to replace it on that account first e.g. by logging into it via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes or via http://appleid.apple.com

  • Can a script be written to take the next 2 files in a folder and place them on a background image..then saving with the first images filename..?

    Hello all, I hope you can help.
    In Photoshop I have a problem to overcome and have delved into the world of scripting..
    If there is a quick way to produce the following could someone help me with some pointers?
    Here is my situation..
    I need to produce a photograph proof card, these are for a double image option so cause me a headache compared to just creating an action..
    This proof card really is just a set of two different photographs placed onto a background image.
    I would produce two different images of the same person and name them exactly the same except they are suffixed with an A or B to keep them together, these would be in a folder with approx 500 other images for example (250 x two of each person)
    My preference for the process would be done in the following sequence:
    1/ Open the background file jpg (which is sized at 2400 x 1800 pixels @ 300dpi)
    2/ Load the first image from the batch file and place this.
    3/ Get the filename of the first image and create it as a text layer and write it below the image at 10 point text size.
    4/ Create another copy of this layer and change the font to 3of9barcode font, however the font needs an asterisk before the text then again after it. e.g. *filenameA*
         Only the first image has the need for a barcode as they are for the same person. This is at 18 point.
    5/ Load the next sequential image from the batch file and place this.
    6/ Get the filename for the second image and as Item 3/ create a text layer below at 10 point text size.
    7/ Place a png overlay with my copyright information over the images (I need to do this twice, once for each image)
    8/ Flatten the images and save the file in a new folder with the same filename as the first image.
    I can do this in Lightroom with the exception of putting the barcoded text, and the filenaming, this is because the background image is used as the identity plate and the filename is not based on the data from either photograph..
    Can anyone shed some light on where to go from here?
    Kind regards
    Bryan

    Photoshop Scripting-wise this seems fairly "easy".
    But I would recommend creating a template file (that already combines background image, png overlay and the Type Layers).
    Maybe data driven graphics would also be an option …

  • Populating parts of form based on Value entered in the first field

    Hello,
    I am trying to create a form, where user will enter the serial number of his equipment and I want him to click a verify button next to it.Upon clicking the verify button I want the Item Description field of the form to be updated ( this info is pulled from a backend MySql DB).Also, the text fields corresponding to the Equipment Site to be populated.After checking all the info, user should be able to click a submit button at the end of form and this information should be written to another table.I attached a Insert record server behaviour to form.Essentially, I want to attach a different action to both buttons on the form.In my view this is same a when we fill those registration form and based on our country, our state drop down gets populated.It seems this is doable, but I am not able to figure out how.I would really appreciate any help
    Thanks

    This is very simple if you understand PHP code. Basically, you give the two buttons different names, and use PHP conditional logic to control what happens. Call one button "verify" and the other "insert". If you use the POST method, you control the script like this:
    if (array_key_exists('verify', $_POST) {
      // create a recordset to retrieve the details ready for display
    } elseif (array_key_exists('insert', $_POST) {
      // insert the details in the the new table
    If you're not comfortable coding PHP yourself, the easy way to do it with Dreamweaver server behaviors is to use separate pages. In the first page, just create a form for the user to enter the serial number. Use the GET method to send the serial number to a separate page. In the new page, use the URL parameter containing the serial number to create a recordset to populate the insert form. Then apply an Insert Record server behavior using the POST method to insert the details into a new table.

  • Getting a field value from the first page on the second page in HTML

    I have a 2 page form I'm presenting in HTML to the user. The first page they select an action, enter a USERID and click the next page button. (The button executes "xfa.host.pageDown();" on the click action at the server)
    On the initialize of the second page I try to get the value of the USERID field from the first page and create a SQL statement to open my data connection. The issue I have is that I cannot get the value of the USERID field. This code works cause if I hardcode a valid value the query works. I tried to work around this by putting the same field on page 2, but it still did not work but the field was populated with displayed. I only assume the data is not populated at the time the initialize is invoked.
    Here is my code on the initialize..
    xfa.sourceSet.nodes.item(0).resolveNode("#command.query").commandType = "text"
    xfa.sourceSet.nodes.item(0).resolveNode("#command.query").select.nodes.item(0).value = "Select * from TABLE where userid = '" + xfa.form.resolveNode("form1.Page1.txt_EmployeeLogin").rawValue + "'"
    xfa.sourceSet.DataConnetion.open()
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    THANKS!!

  • TS3297 I cannot purchase music currently as I am being asked to answer security questions due to it being " the first time have bought from this PC". This is not the case, I have not changed my PC. I have changed my passowrd and security questions but no

    I cannot buy music currently as I am being asked to answer security questions due to it being supposedly "the first time I have bought form this PC". This is not the case. I have now changed my password and security questions, but it is asking me the same when I try to buy again.

    First off, the name of your computer is only the way it is becuase the Apple user is the first one they created after repairing the Mac. Go into Sharing System Preferences and change the name to whatever you like.
    Can you explain how you did this:
    This didn't seem right so I went in to it and changed the computer so that it would recognise me as the Owner/Administrator.
    You can delete the Apple user in Users & Groups System Prefs. Select that user and delete it. It will ask if you want to save the user data or delete it. If you archive it, you can always delete it later and it will be available if you need to recover that account for some reason--I doubt this will be necessary. After deleting the account, and when you feel you are still working normally, you could delete that archived user folder.
    I have also never seen anything ask for that. It does sound like an Epson thing, but without having access to it, I couldn't tell you for sure.
    Here's what I would try. Create a new User and give them admin rights. Log in as that user and see what happens with the installer. If it still complains, it is an Epson issue. My guess is it is looking for user id 501, the first user created. If it works, then something is indeed odd about your account. If so, use that new admin account to disable Admin privileges for your account, then re-enable it. This is done in the Users & Groups system prefs.

    The decision to remove ASP.NET support was announced in

    The announcement doesn't give a specific reason, but it's
    fairly widely
    known that Microsoft and Adobe are rivals. Microsoft controls
    the
    development and release cycle of ASP.NET, so Dreamweaver
    could never
    hope to keep up with the latest version. Rather than expend a
    lot of
    resources on supporting features that would always lag behind
    anything
    produced by Microsoft, it seems fairly obvious that Adobe
    decided to
    abandon the battle with ASP.NET and concentrate on other
    features instead.

  • Is to ask a question the only way to create an account on mozilla support?

    It seems so.
    I started looking at a question (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1012153) and wanted to reply. No luck with that. Not on the 'sign in' page (https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/users/auth), not anywhere else. I've been looking for a couple of minutes.
    Besides, passwords with numbers (which you enforce) are not necessarily more secure: http://xkcd.com/936/

    Do you think that this is acceptable usability?
    Viewing a question, I have to click 'Mozilla', 'Volunteer' (?!?) and scroll down quite a bit to create an account? How am I supposed to guess that the 'create account' functionality is hidden there?
    Compare this to other sites. How many clicks do you need on the first attempt to create an account at:
    http://www.dell.com/support/article/us/en/19/SLN143153/en

    Now, go to some non-tech people and tell them to create an account, viewing https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/1012153.
    TL;DR:
    Add a 'create account' button to the 'sign in' page. From nowhere on support.mozilla.com any non-tech person should need more than 10 seconds to see the signup form.

  • The ever so savvy "creating a java game" post

    Hey, I'm creating a java game, and I did research, and found that this question has been asked many, many times. But my question unfortunately did not match up with any of these posts :( So here goes...
    Im creating a java game, which will run as....kind of a mix between a 2d game, and 3d game (no i am not insane). I dont want the original zelda look, and i dont want the first person shooter look, I want my character to be viewed from an angle, like tibia - if anyone has ever played that. And I also want to leave open the door to changing the view within the game. I figured I can just get my graphics friends to draw things in 3-d, (draw a house [draw the 4 sides and the roof]), and then somehow skew these images to accomodate for a different view.
    I am more than willing to code some kind of graphics engine if what I need is not available, I have looked at a couple and found no such luck.
    So what is the most efficient way to create this game? By just sortof getting all the graphics to be from a certain percpective, and then somehow modifying them with java.....
    or by using some kind of graphics engine that allows me to change views? If so any recomendations?
    Thanks a lot - wow this was long, oh yea a couple Dukes for this too thanks again
    -Mark

    you don't need to do any skewing. Here's what I'd do. I'd store all the tile information in a matrix (Object[][]) with a custom tile class that has the information it needs to retrieve its appropriate image, and certain game related data like slow down factor when a person walks over a certain type of tile, and whether it can be collided with. I'd draw them based on however you decide to angle your tiles. But the important part is you go in this order:
    [0, 0], [0, 1], [1, 0], [0, 2], [1, 1], [2, 0], etc., etc....
    The idea is if you're turning the floor 45 degrees clockwise, to give the correct illusion of depth, you'll want to draw the furthest back tile first, and the furthest tile forward last. Whether you start on the left or right depends on what angle you decide to work with. At a 45 degree angle, it obviously doesn't matter whether you start on the left or right. But if you guess wrong with your rendering, it will show because tiles that are closer to the "camera" will be overlapped by tiles further from the "camera".
    for (int i = 0; i < tiles.length; i++) {
         for (int j = 0; j < tiles.length; j++) {
              graphics2D.drawImage(tiles[i].getImage(), i*horizontalSpacing - camera.getX(), j*verticalSpacing, camera.getY(), null);
    }horizontalSpacing and verticalSpacing will be determined by the angle of your tiles. Set those to match however you make your art.
    Drawing moving sprites will be a bit trickier because you'll have to decide which set of axes to follow... meaning, do you follow the axes of the screen, or the axes of your "rotated world." Give that some thought and once you understand what's happening with the perspective here you'll be able to see which is easiest.
    So there's your engine ;)
    Now, as for the art itself, make them in png format, so that you can have the base of your images be diamond shape, but of course tiles for players and walls and stuff will extend above that diamond. Just don't let them get below the base of their diamond otherwise the tile that gets drawn below them will cut them off. And you don't want a character's feet cut off by the "floor" as he runs ;)
    For your final question, don't let java skew the sprite. The only possible way to make it decent is if when you pick an angle, a 3D render takes your 3D world and it's 3D models and re-renders them at that angle; skewing is simply not capable of creating that illusion. The closest you could get is to simply squish the hight of your art to give the illusion that the camera is moving up, but since you can't expose things higher, like the top of your character's head (since the data doesn't exist in the "lower" version), it will be obviously funny looking.
    Hope that answers your questions, and good luck! I would definitely like to see what you come up with.

  • If you create a 3 level deep site heirarchy (with the first two levels based on the document centre template) the sharepoint OOTB breadcrumbs break

    if you create a site collection with document center as the template, then create another document center site (as a subsite) underneath it. Then create a team site (as a subsite) in this document center site. So now you have a 3 level deep site heiarchy
    with 2 levels of doc center followed by a teamsite.
    Note that the breadcrumb (when I say breadcrumb I mean the drop down folder button which shows the heirachy) shown on the teamsite skips the middle level doc center.
    I have replicated this bug in production and in my test server.  Has anyone run into this before?  This must be something peculiar with the Doc Center template.  If I do the same thing but I make the middle level a team site I do NOT have
    this problem
    krd

    Hi,
    Per my test, it seems that if the second level uses a different category template except the Collaboration templates, the site will not show on the breadcrumb.
    No matter if the first level uses any template, when we view the subsite which uses the Collaboration templates, all the subsites which uses a different category template above will not show in the breadcrumb.
    You can create your own breadcrumb using code.

    I uploaded pictures from a second camera and my iphoto created a second library, how do i get back to the first library? Can anyone help?

    I have no idea what you did or what happened - but I can assure you that loading from a different camera does not create a new library
    So you need to supply information and someone here will assist you in sorting this out and figuring out what you really did
