[2016-12-15. : 8:10 am] Lanthanide -- I guess he can run it into the ground, faster than it is already going[2016-12-15. : 8:10 am] Lanthanide -- given his recent somewhat erratic behaviour, it's far from gauranteed[2016-12-15. : 8:02 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- sure, if dubbyu and trump can do it, how hard can it be?[2016-12-15. : 7:59 am] KrayZee -- Farty the Billionaire instead of knowing it runs the game, can you run the country?[2016-12-15. : 7:55 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- worst case I guess I could transfer my server to that then give him the old computer back, since I know it runs the game xD[2016-12-15. : 7:52 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- I figure I could try to run the game on it, and if it doesn't work look for a graphics card to put in it[2016-12-15. : 7:49 am] Lanthanide -- FaRTy1billionFaRTy1billion shouted: and I found basically the same thing with a keyboard and mouse, so I'd just need a monitor xD yeah, I think you should buy off the shelf / refurbished[2016-12-15. : 7:15 am] NudeRaider -- Also some hard truth from the best show that ever existed: http://i.imgur.com/XK2hB2b.jpg[2016-12-15. : 7:14 am] NudeRaider -- Mini Moose 2707Mini Moose 2707 shouted: jjf28 Why? I can just show the map to the 5 people here who still have SCBW installed fam don't get me started. I got it on Windows AND Linux (was even the first game to run there) so that already counts as twice. [2016-12-15. : 7:12 am] NudeRaider -- AposApos shouted: It's always a really really really really really short path = straight line. Sounds like it would work really well in real space. [2016-12-15. : 6:21 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- and I found basically the same thing with a keyboard and mouse, so I'd just need a monitor xD[2016-12-15. : 6:13 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- Something like this would probably be beyond sufficient. I could probably find some super cheap graphics card if the integrated graphics wasn't enough. It just has to run DX9 xD[2016-12-15. : 6:05 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- buying one of the shelf seems better, because it'll already have all the parts and have windows. ;o Building it, windows costs half or more as much as the entire build[2016-12-15. : 5:37 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- my dad's asking for the computer that I have my server on, and it's from like 10+ years ago so even a refurbished $100 thing would probably be better [2016-12-15. : 5:36 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- if I knew what to look for in hardware I'd just buy bottom of the barrel stuff. Ones I found would add up to a price similar to that[2016-12-15. : 5:35 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- but they've got like 2+ GHz and 2-4 GB RAM, which is like 8x what is necessary xD[2016-12-15. : 5:30 am] jjf28 -- it would prolly be; though the hardware may or may not be too worn down[2016-12-15. : 5:29 am] O)FaRTy1billion[MM] -- if I bought a $100-$150 desktop and threw like a $40 graphics card in it, would that be a viable for playing a game that is over 10 years old? [2016-12-15. : 5:14 am] jjf28 -- that's quite impressive, I couldn't name another piece of Software that's made it 20 years without needing emulation[2016-12-15. : 5:04 am] Ahli -- D1 works with modern OS, yeah you might need to kill explorer exe or something to fix colors[2016-12-15. : 5:01 am] jjf28 -- oh my... reliably launching virtualbox without any sort of install tho.. does D1 work on win7-10?[2016-12-15. : 5:00 am] jjf28 -- could I launch virtualbox and D1 inside it and say I coded your map? [2016-12-15. : 4:56 am] jjf28 -- AhliAhli shouted: alright, then executable code my diablo map into SC1 so what does this 3-year project pay? [2016-12-15. : 4:43 am] jjf28 -- yoon made a troll map with it and allegedly a DLL launcher; frankly I just stepped into a byte, rejoiced, and quit theory crafting forever[2016-12-15. : 4:41 am] jjf28 -- AhliAhli shouted: SC1 is very limited and does not offer you hundreds of fields and elements that you can combine together got ya beat, sc1 can run executable code [2016-12-15. : 4:40 am] Ahli -- wc3 had more black boxes which appealed to the modders more as things were faster to create[2016-12-15. : 4:40 am] Apos -- Let's play "Guess the function", here is a function, try to figure out what you can pass to it, try to figure out what it returns?[2016-12-15. : 4:40 am] Ahli -- SC2 was designed with custom content in mind. Hence there are little black boxes and countless parameters... Those parameters are just undocumented[2016-12-15. : 4:38 am] Lanthanide -- yeah, which just tells you it was designed poorly / wasn't designed with custom content in mindt[2016-12-15. : 4:38 am] Ahli -- SC2 is powerful, but power usually comes with the cost of minimum skill... It takes people a lot of effort to learn basic things in SC2...[2016-12-15. : 4:37 am] Lanthanide -- and because you didn't have a lot to work with, it was fun trying to come up with impressive effects by combining things together in clever ways[2016-12-15. : 4:37 am] Ahli -- SC1 is very limited and does not offer you hundreds of fields and elements that you can combine together[2016-12-15. : 4:36 am] Apos -- But maybe it was more fun for people to discover how to 'break' the game in SC1?[2016-12-15. : 4:35 am] Apos -- Not really an excuse though, SC1 probably had even less documentation[2016-12-15. : 4:34 am] Ahli -- well, SC2's documentation sucks. In case you figure it out, you can try to put the knowledge somewhere where people find it... |
