#382 - Thing Called News |
Weekly Newsletter; Thing Called News#382 - Friday 07th September, 2018groups.google.com/group/socoder-newsletter Every Friday, I didn't forget, honest! ; Hello WorldI'm currently knee deep in JNKPlat2018's menu system, gradually tweaking the buttons bit by bit. So far, I've got a vague grid of "Pack" squares inscreen. Each pack has 4 levels, which light up as you complete them, so you eventually end up with a nice lit-up grid. Until then, though, they're all nice and dark. I've now been working on this very same menu for about a week. I hate menus. I keep procrastinating. In the time since I started work on this menu, I've written and released Quadoban 2, rejigged a few bits of AGameAWeek.com's layout, and even fixed up my Pixelart to STL exporter. Anything but work on a smegging menu!! It would've been nice to have been making levels for the game, in all this time, but I need the menu to access the levels to edit the levels! D'oh! *sigh* This game is getting longer and longer. .. And I hate doing menus!! SoCoder; Pixelart Extrusion UpdateTwitter user, and Tested.com regular @Jerware, asked me if I could upgrade my Pixelart tool to cope with multicoloured exporting, for the purpose of more modern multicoloured 3D printers.I was happy to oblige, mostly because it meant not having to do that damn menu for a couple of days! socoder.net/?Showcase=66453 ; RPi ProblemsSpinal's having some kind of issue, trying to add a screen to an RPi.If you're an RPi user, or are into your techy portable hardware bits and pieces, be sure to pop by and see if you can help. socoder.net/?Topic=7148 SoOutside; CasesSteve finds a lovely post, which describes the ease of which you can use a cassette tape's case to hold a mobile phone.The hardest part would be trying to find a cassette tape's case. socoder.net/?Topic=7149 (hint : They're in the "Amstrad" drawer!) ; Fishy NewsRockford reports on a news item that warns about the food we eat.You never know what could be in there. socoder.net/?Topic=7146 ; End of the PS2Sony have finally decided to call it a day on doing PS2 repairs.socoder.net/?Topic=7151 SoOffTopic; Pixelart Animation TipsDabz finds a lovely set of little animated sheets, explaining some great tips for doing pixelart animations.socoder.net/?Topic=7143 ; ControllersWhat controllers are currently (or are easily accessible) hooked up to your PC?socoder.net/?Topic=7144 ; Dead and Not BuriedI can't imagine how much crap this poor guy must've been going through..socoder.net/?Topic=7142 SoMuchMore; Mudchat?Spinal realises the MudChat's not there.Do we need a new MudChat?
