Nympho Cop

[garm29]

The combat looks like it will be interesting if you keep with this, I havent played your other game, so I dont know if they're similar or not. Cover based shooter text adventure. Cant wait to see how this pans out

Thank you. Falling star is my only other game and it's still a long way off from being complete. I put that on hold since i want to complete a game in 2012 and well falling star was draining to much from me. I'll see if i can get Avatars working.

double post.

(do note, i'm ranting and raving again and i was to lazy to edit this but URL is a object in java that lets you get a file off the computer or the web.)

Alright so i had plan on having a update rolled out by tonight, in fact i nearly uploaded it to media fire.
However java and the java community has fucked with me again!
Basically when dealing with pictures what you do is add them to the Jar file so it's all pertty and self contained.
Well your fucked if you don't do that because Java has horrible support finding the file your lunched and your fucked if you do because java yet again has proven to me that URL are for masochist who enjoy bullshit.

Basically here is what's going on. When i make a entity like Player or Goon, I am loading a picture by giving it a URL. This URL is the location of my jar thene package folder of class + back one folder + filename and type. So great, i get a URL that works (can be created. These things are bitch to create because the dropping of a pin will make them blow up like atomic bomb.) then i say okay create a player object and said URL shall be used. okay it gets pass along and sent though to my main entity class to create the object. It reads the URL and says "nope, this ain't going to work" and throws a error.
So fine i have a problem with the URL it seems. It's never modified not that you can modify a URL. I decided to just hard code the location in to the entity. So i copy paste the code i am using to get the URL which is 1 line and paste it into the entity file and use that as my URL. This means that no matter what i say i want to file URL location to be when creating the objects, the program is going to ignore that and use only 1 URL for things calling it self an Entity. Now remember we're using the same code for getting the URL. I run it and it works just fine except my goons are chicks now.
Okay great so i mess around for a hour trying to get this to work and give up. Since that was the last bit i wanted to add before uploading i decide to do it anyways expect using the hardcode version since it will give it the same effect. Well i got to test out the jar and URLS don't work at all! I mess around for another 30 minues until and give up and bitch here.

When ever i am dealing with files, it's the URL that literally kill progress and the problem is that the way i'm creating the URL is the recommended way to avoid this type of problem between class files and Jar files differences.

Y'know, whatever problems you're facing... I'm sure you can find a way through. Why? Cause I believe in you, BlueLight!

[BlueLight]

Ya i'm likely to say F it (again) and just make File objects and use those as the URLs.
As i've said the URL class is fucked up. I shouldn't have to make File objects to get a URL object and who in there right mind would think about using a File to do that?

[BlueLight]

So i am unsure of my problems with images is, but i've decided to move on from that.

The page here should havelink to my stream and information what i should be doing did do.

[BlueLight]

I think i'm nearly done with this game.
All i need to do on player side is add the code for movement and scenes.

Anyways here is what the GUI looks like right now.

hey man I can't find the DL link on your blog and i can't seem too find it on here do you think you could give me the link too it or put it up as a flash game, cause i'd really like too try it out.

[argret]

It seems my comp encountered some problems. I can't seem to be able to access any blogspot.com site at all.
Could you please put your work on mediafire or some other links that I can download without having to access blogspot ? Please ?

So i believe i took down the link to the download because avatars don't work.
The fact the avatars don't work bugs me enough for me not to link to the old files.

Basically there is no version i am willing to provide a link to.

I use Media fire for my downloads but as to your request.... no.
Sorry but i don't have any version i'm willing to provide a link to right now.

.... ya that's on the last post i made. on the 21st. nice job 666.
*Blue light gets annoyed easily now adays.... in other words MAGE GLARE!*

I'm not sure what it is with my comp that makes downloading games impossible.

I hope you'll find a way to make the game and avatars work for you. Sounds like the Nympho Cop game is a lot harder to code as a text-base.

[BlueLight]

Not really. The only problems I'm having is code to get a picture and AI.
Pictures are trouble because java is annoying as hell.
AI is well... alien to me.

There are some complexities with the text but it shouldn't be to hard to deal with. This is where Arrays and constructors come in handy.

[balkj06]

Looks interesting, I have never played a text-based game before (expect for Visual Novels)

can't wait to play it

[BlueLight]

I'm going to set up a basic AI tomorrow and hopefully start of the sex scenes.

So, you're getting closer to the end! Keep that in sight, and head straight for it!

jw whats a JAR file and what do I need too open it?

[BlueLight]

jw whats a JAR file and what do I need too open it?

It's a fancy Zip file. (Same software to unzip the file should work with no modification. 7 zip does at least)

Basically I have my source files which have a extension of ".Java" and when i compile it i get file of the same name with the extension ".Class".
For the program to start correctly you have to run the right ".Class" file which can easily be annoying since my program has at leave 40 of these files in 5 different folders and only one will start the program.
the way i make this simpler is by putting these ".Class" files in a another file called a ".Jar" and then in the jar writing to a few files saying what file should be run first is.
It's part of java.

All you should need to run ".class" files and ".jar" is Java 6(I use java 6.) or above. class files, you'd have to use the command line to use and well it's very annoying to set up so i wont even explain it. You shouldn't worry since no would in there right mind would send you a class file unless the program is really simple.
".Jar" files work just like ".EXE" files. You just double click. goto http://www.java.com/ if you don't have java.

Buggy release but a release.

I haven't really tested the build per-say but the only difference is one line of code that should fix a bug.
Again this is buggy since i'm half way though bashing the program in to submission. I'm seeing future problems ahead.

[FMC]

Well, at least you're getting somewhere, right? o.o

Just think of it that way.
