Utilizing GeoIP and any network library or native OS network functions, create an application which displays the estimated location of the addresses your system makes connections to in real-time.

Done!

C# using Pcap.Net and GeoIP

[tjaze]

Any ideas for a beginner in programming (C# or Java)? I don't have enough knowledge for majority of above suggestions. :downs:

Top down zombie shooter.

[AlienCat]

Bottom up zombie shooter. It like a whole new game. A whole new perspective. A whole new world. Wow, that make me think of some shitty Disney movie.

[FlashMarsh]

I know a small amount of C++, no graphics though. Could someone give me a small project to ease myself back into learning it again?

Sounds the exact same except with upskirts on zombie crotches.

I'm particularly interested in a program that scans a folder full of source code and counts all of the code lines, comment lines, file counts, etc and prints info about it.

Then finally I can gloat about my shear amount of line numbers.

Have that ever been done? :v:

Oh, another suggestion is the sunfish thingy.

[Frugle]

Make a data storage visualizer that is useful as [url=http://windirstat.info/]WinDirStat[/url] and looks good as [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NjUuAuBcoqs]Gource[/url].

Make a chatbot based on natural language.

Make a pacman game where you are a ghost hunting pacman.

Make an asteroid game where you are an asteroid.

Make a pong game where you play as the ball.

[ichiman94]

I want to build a game on top of my HorribleFramework framework so I can improve it while building the game.

Suggestions?

-A Half-Life point&click adventure (artistic)
-Top down role-play zombie shooter (informative)
-A Command&Conquer like strategy (useful)
-A turn-based sci-fi strategy with Civilisation's elements (late)

I know a somewhat good amount of Python.. Trying to learn Pygame, but having trouble staying focused with it.. Anyone have ideas of what I could make with Python?? (Also.. Could anyone tell me how to save to a text document.. (.txt))

In other words, a 3d data visualizer.

I am out of ideas so make a math platformer game that become harder every time you choose wrong answer.

Or make a game that changes the gamemode everytime you fail.

[mole3700]

So, guys - I've not done any programming in around about a month, and what with me returning to Uni soon, I should really get my hand back in.

Unfortunately, there's not much motivation going on here. Does anyone have any ideas for something I could program pretty quickly to have something finished and move onto a bigger project?

I tend to program in Java, but perhaps something in JS could also work. I'm an.. OK programmer. I've done a couple of years of a CS course at Uni, so, there's that.

For anyone interested in 2D platformers (or any sort of heavy-graphics type applications/games), I will just leave this here.

@mole3700: Depends what you want to do: games or more useful stuff. For example you can make a search program that search for files. The one in Windows 7 sucks.

While this is a really good library, it might be a bit too advanced. However it seems that 2D graphics is pretty simple to do anyways.

[Relaxation]

Hey guys, I'm currently learning C at uni. I want to make a program, that on start up it will provide a search bar, and when I type into the search bar it will draw results from youtube, ect... (places that you can listen to music.) BUT I want the song selection to be only text and it won't redirect me to the site or play the video, itll only play the audio.

I'm using linux ubuntu and will be using vim editor to write the script in.

Is it possible? If so can someone point me in the right direction?

[Superwafflez]

Anything is possible, you just need to code.

[demoTron]

I know the basics of C++ just finished my first game in SFML (Snake). I need a new, not so difficult project to work on. I don't want to make another game right now, i want to make an application. Feel free to suggest something

[AlienCat]

Color comparer?
Image comparer, a so called image-diff that highlight differences in the image?
Music comparer? :V:

Cooking timer program.

Please don't do that in C.
