[QUOTE=Reg;16739292]That's the bright side.. but for example they sell valve's free dlcs on xbox just to get some little money more.. I find that awful[/QUOTE]

Helps pay for the bandwidth they use when people download from it.

They are distributing it out to the masses so I mean it isn't all bad.

I understand what you are saying, but then again I can see where Microsoft is coming from on that one.

[QUOTE=jivemasta;16741055]I've come to the conclusion that the people that come to this forum hate it when people try teaching or sharing with everyone. This thread is a good example, the F# thread, the prime finder thread, pretty much any thread where someone does anything sort of cool.

The only thread that has remained pretty civil is the thread where everyone circle jerks at what they are doing and COULDN'T care less about what anyone else does.

So don't feel bad that this thread has turned out the way it has, keep posting stuff, a couple people like it. And try to ignore the "X is a better way than Y" people, you can never please them.[/QUOTE]

The most truth filled post ever made in this section, Ever.

Pretty cool tutorial. I've never tried python but it looks pretty good.

I love making tutorials. Just out of interest is there anything people would want a video tutorial on anything I'm likely to know?

indecipherable but inscrutably powerful code holla, we write out once and debug everywhere [i]more than java[/i]

I appreciate the effort, though, I want to take out wxWidgets for a ride now.

[Reg]

The code explanation is done, hope you enjoy!

[Daniellynet]

Nice tut. Makes me want to try Python. :)

[Reg]

Try it, it's simpler than many of the other languages

[Daniellynet]

I will, in the weekend though. Don't have time and patience right now. (school)

[Reg]

Where do you live? When I was at school, I used to start in september!

[Funcoot]

Reg, do you take requests?

I would love to see you do some tutorials on 2d rendering and game logic.

[Reg]

2d rendering, like opengl?

[Funcoot]

[QUOTE=Reg;16758766]2d rendering, like opengl?[/QUOTE]

Whatever you use with python. Maybe pygame or whatever, which does use openGL correct?

[Reg]

Well I don't know about using the raw opengl, but I tried pygame..

Anyway I only know the basic stuff..

[QUOTE=Funcoot;16759173]Whatever you use with python. Maybe pygame or whatever, which does use openGL correct?[/QUOTE]

Pygame uses SDL which uses software rendering. It can do OpenGL but it's not recommended.

Pyglet and PyOpenGL are good OpenGL libraries for Python.

I started using Python not long ago, and coming from C based languages I don't really like how Python is untyped. It's rather confusing.

[Funcoot]

That makes me wonder. Is PyGame mearly a port of SDL to python?

SFML has python binings no? Isn't it about time SFML is seen in more python apps?

[/QUOTE]

Yep, that's pretty much all Pygame is. :v:

I heard it kinda sucks, for now at least.

ya i herd from sum guy it sux so ill just bandwagon

[Reg]

Pygame is good, but slow.

I looked into PyGlet but I couldn't get my head in it.

[TerabyteS]

Is the OP gonna continue the tuts? I sent him a pm..

[Sporbie]

I'm guessing he just got bored of it?

Why don't you google for some more tutorials if you really want to learn that bad.

[Reg]

Hi, sorry for not answering in a while, I was on holiday.

Anyway I'm back and I will continue the tutorial soon (maybe tomorrow, maybe in three days).
Keep tuned for more info and the actual tut.
When it's out I will edit the OP and add it, then leave a message here.

What are you using to edit that? SPE?

[jjsullivan]

[QUOTE=RubberDuckeh;16737701]fyi it's "couldn't care less"

"could care less" implies you DO care.

If you're going to use cliches at least KNOW the cliche first.[/QUOTE]

But to the OP, thanks for the tut, I'll try this out soon.

I think it's notepad++

Reg is right, Notepad++. :)
