| 9545 | Deskmate! | games | -1 | Scantly clad Japanese-inspired women... | When the programming sucks, decorate with sexy women or sexy girls.<P> This is true. Microsoft commited such an idea with its XBox booth babes...and so the pattern diminishes with PS2 booth babes and others of such conventions.<p> Linux and the *BSD unix(s) aren't built with sex-appeal. Why should the merit of the programming be construed with images people find as sexy? One thing) using the human factor, ie sex-appeal, promotes downloading. Anyone can replace the images, surety is the option of the Deskmate program, yet is there merit in Deskmate?<p> In short order, if some poor soul replaced the pictures with that of some that are commonly found by many as being disgusting, would Deskmate be downloaded?<p> Speaking of which, maybe I should build a stupid program in the style of pacman, but instead of seeing Mr. Pac Man I will install pictures of beautiful women crawling on their kneese eating sweet-tarts! That'll do it for my day. :-) | 2003-03-16 12:16:21 | 0 |
| 9546 | Dodgin' Diamond 2 | games | -1 | joystick | Is playing with the joystick supported? I changed the the line CONTROL_1=0 to CONTROL_1=1 in ~/.dd2rc, but that didn't seem to work. | 2003-03-16 12:50:05 | 0 |
| 9547 | Dodgin' Diamond 2 | games | -1 | Re: joystick | <p>Sorry, but that release has not joystick support enabled (I forgot to remove it from the docs). <p>Next release will have experimental joystick support enabled. <p>Juanjo | 2003-03-16 13:36:27 | 9546 |
| 9548 | Dodgin' Diamond 2 | games | -1 | Re: Looks promising | <p>By now you should read the README file. I'm planning to allow keyboard setup via configuration screen. It's in the TODO list. <p>Juanjo | 2003-03-16 13:38:13 | 9543 |
| 9550 | Serious Sam: The Second Encounter | games | 6547 | network | For internet play in ssam 2, does it search for all ssam 2 servers, or just those running the linux client? I can't seem to connect to any and was wondering if I could get some information | 2003-03-16 18:31:54 | 0 |
| 9552 | Dodgin' Diamond 2 | games | 5225 | DD2 on Solaris Sparc/Keybindings... | Hi! THe game compiles fine on Solaris 8/9 UltraSparc...! =) I'm not a programmer, what should I change in order to change the key binding for "fire" for player one? I only have 1 CONTROL key (the left one). The game definitively has a lot of potentials! if we could could double it's screen size...that would be very nice intead of lowering the resolution...! =) Cheers! <a href="http://www.lienhei.com"><b><font color="#3333ff">Georgie's SOLARCADE</font></b></a> | 2003-03-16 21:03:51 | 0 |
| 9554 | Mad Bomber | games | 679 | Re: Outstanding | Just so you know, it's kind of hard to take a screenshot under X-Window and capture the cursor. :^) That's why there's no cursor in that screenshot (or pretty much any OTHER around here). -bill! | 2003-03-16 22:05:11 | 7754 |
| 9555 | Deskmate! | games | -1 | Re: Scantly clad Japanese-inspired women | Well, principally it's just a desktop toy more than anything, though the website does give a few semi-useful applications for the program, such as using it as an alarm or to notify you of system events. Granted that these functions are performed by other, more fully-featured programs, but something like Deskmate is likely written for a specific audience of people. If you have to wonder what the appeal of it would be, obviously you're not part of that audience. | 2003-03-16 22:33:45 | 9545 |
| 9556 | Dodgin' Diamond 2 | games | -1 | Re: DD2 on Solaris Sparc/Keybindings... | <p>You can edit engine.c file and look form player[0] stuff. You'll find SDLK_CONTROL at line 92. Change it to otrer key (eg. SDLK_m). <p>Thanks for you success report :) <p>Juanjo | 2003-03-16 22:59:35 | 9552 |
| 9557 | Dodgin' Diamond 2 | games | 5225 | Re: DD2 on Solaris Sparc/Keybindings... | Thanks Juanjo!
