Reply to Wreckage in close orbit of star cannot be picked up in Sins II Bug Reports Sins2 Forums

I just experienced this as well, in the DogFight map, 5v5. 3 of my AI allies decided to do nothing except try to get the wreck that they couldn't get. It became me and one AI verses 5 AI's because my 3 allies did absolutely nothing except try to get the wreck they couldn't get.

AJAX + Flash = dynamic playlist music player in Software Development Stardock Forums

Alright, i pretty much finished my site. Its built with an AJAX driven directory listing. I then use flash External interface to tell flash to add a song to the playlist. All this is done without leaving the current page, no refreshing or anything. This way, you can browse all music without the flash player reseting. What I've done so far: Created Template using Photoshop and lots of Alpha channels in pngs Made template to w

Reply to Ideas for Fences in ThinkDesk Stardock Forums

I totally agree with those ideas. If i could right click on a folder in explorer and say "Create A Fence" it would make life so much easier. A fence for My Documents, a fence for my Downloads folder, the possibilites would be nearly endless.

new layout for my site in Internet Stardock Forums

I pretty much finished the layout for my site. The only change i have to do is to change the size of the header so smaller screens dont have the horizontal scroll. And i want to change the blend on the header image so it doesnt look like it just cuts off. The best part about this layout is that im using PNGs, so i dont have to change any images to change the colors, only

my next project in Software Development Stardock Forums

After finding out my new classes, i realized i will have plenty of time to start work on a new project. I have decided to create a new website for myself. I have been hosting a website on my home computer for a long time now, and the current edition is not only old and ugly, but non browser safe. I use my website to host all of my music so i can listen to it while at school (or anywhere). The current edition uses a customized QuiXplorer to list all of the music

some crazy ideas for projects in Software Development Stardock Forums

crazy idea # 1: Ray-traced desktop environment: Would look similar to todays environments, but ray traced. This would include total control of camera and light source placement, intensity, and direction. Could do on the fly camera movements to simulate multiple work spaces. Could possibly create a system for caching the dynamic look into a static image to cut down on performance issues with real time ray tracing. Benifits include: impro

Integration of Stardock's various services in Misc Stardock Forums

I am curious about the implementaion and depth of integration with Stardock's services. Things like impulse, totalgaming, Stardock forums, joeuser, and wincustomize. I know that creating a blog through impulse phase 3/impulsedriven creates a blog on joeuser, but how far does it go? Could an extension be made to show your purchased games from impulse on a blog? And what about displaying your multiplayer info? Anyone that knows care to elaborate?

My useless image manipulation program in Software Development Stardock Forums

So i got an idea in class a while ago and thought it would be a good learning experience. Completely useless, but fun to stare at. what it does: takes a picture (jpg format), then makes it look wavy using a sin wave. It started out pretty easy until i realized that using GetPixel and SetPixel is slow as balls. The alternative was editing memory directly :( btw, if anyone knows how to edit a picture using pointers vertically instead of horizonatally,

Reply to Google Chrome in WindowBlinds Stardock Forums

The main reason i dont use windowblinds is because it doesnt play well with chrome. Chromium doesnt work well either (no surprise). It still doesnt work the way its supposed to when you enable the advanced user feature of keeping Areo window frames in windowblinds. Im using vista 32bit though, not XP.
