Thats the best one, use under your own responsibility, dont mention us when using it, dont bother us about it.
Anything else do as you wish

[QUOTE=Robber;28188721]That's deprecated, but you can use the Minecraft Coder Pack to decompile and deobfuscate it automatically: [url]http://mcp.ocean-labs.de/[/url][/QUOTE]

I dont understand, why doesnt notch get pissed off or even atleast say something about people decompiling minecraft?

I use MIT, because it's no bullshit do whatever you want.

Decompiling leads to mods, and good mods lead to more sales..

Yes, without decompiling, the ambient occlusion mod wouldn't exist.

He said he doesn't like it, but since it's currently the only way to mod Minecraft his only counter measure is developing a modding API.

Hey Catdaemon, I think you may have answered this before, but where did you learn to do that dynamic lighting. Its amazing.

I seem to remember a really nice article about 2D dynamic lighting on Gamedev.net floating around a thread or two ago but I can't find it now...

Then why did he obfuscate it in the first place? It just slows down modders.

That's precisely the one I used. I didn't implement the soft shadows though - The performance hit is obscene. If you're going to do that you're better off using shaders and such.

No mods, and suddenly minecraft is boring after doing the same thing over and over again.

In fact, I love the hard edges to the shadows. It just makes it look so... cool! I love it. Do you know what article it was by any chance?

i also get the feeling it was completely not what you're meant to do.

Yeah they chat a lot of shit.. I muddled through it as best I could. The upside is because mine works differently I can have spotlights and shit without changing the code.

Here is my WIP flashlight weapon. In order to make this work properly I need to make entity parents replicate.. something I was putting off :v:

To make this weapon I did this:

Type Flashlight Extends Item
	Field on:Byte = False
	Field myLight:Light
	Field LastFire:Int = 0
	
	Method New()
		ImageName = "test gun"
	End Method
	
	Method Fire()
		If MilliSecs() > LastFire Then
			LastFire = MilliSecs() + 500
		Else
			Return
		EndIf
		
		on= Not on
		If (on) Then
			myLight = New Light
			myLight.Pos = Self.Pos
			myLight.sprite="light_slice"
			myLight.Ang=self.Ang
			myLight.NetReplicate()
			AddEntList(myLight)
			myLight.SetParent(Self)
		Else
			myLight.Remove()
			myLight = Null
		EndIf
	End Method
	
	Method Tick()
		Super.Tick()
	End Method
EndType

Did you make that scripting language yourself?

Oh, and is that Java or C++ or what?

[sim642]

So I have some progress on my AirTraffic game:
[media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZNAj0I6u5E[/media]

Recording makes it lag a bit so drawing the paths isn't the best thing. Anyways now there are collisions and runways and aircrafts also spawn on themselves. Aircrafts now are able to fly around the screen, but coming out from the edge is still a bit ugly (especially when trying to fly out of a corner).

I think I should make some programmer art soon so it can really be called a game.

[Catdaemon]

[QUOTE=bobthe2lol;28190691]Did you make that scripting language yourself?[/QUOTE]

:v:

It's the programming language I'm writing the game in. It's called BlitzMax if you want to read up more about it. I find it's far easier to do the same tasks in this than C++ or any other language I've tried. The downside is it costs money.

[Catdaemon]

[QUOTE=Rocket;28190719]Is it just me, or is that BASIC?

Yep. Always confuses people when my high performance applications are written in this garbage.

Son, where is my interpolation?

[Robber]

[QUOTE=thomasfn;28189932]Then why did he obfuscate it in the first place? It just slows down modders.[/QUOTE]
Because he doesn't want us to see his source, but he can't do anything about someone deobfuscating it except telling us that he doesn't approve.

[BlkDucky]

[QUOTE=Overv;28190886]Son, where is my interpolation?[/QUOTE]

Wherever you left it.

I guess the reason he doesn't want us to see his source is because it's so bad...

[sim642]

[QUOTE=Overv;28190886]Son, where is my interpolation?[/QUOTE]

Well, I tried to make paths smoother by making points every 10 pixels. That was better than before, but I'm planning to implement real intrerpolation soon. Any tutorials on that?

Interpolation is literally just moving smoothly from one point to another.

	Method Interpolate()
		Local dist:Float = PointDistance(interpos.x, interpos.y, pos.x, pos.y) * 0.9
		interpos.x = MoveTowards(interpos.x, pos.x, (dist * cc_interp.GetFloat()) * FrameTime)
		interpos.y = MoveTowards(interpos.y, pos.y, (dist * cc_interp.GetFloat()) * FrameTime)
	End Method

[editline]21st February 2011[/editline]

So interpos is the "interpolated position" - It not being quite there yet. That is the position I display. The real position is always ahead but it doesn't really matter.
