Re: [Audyssey] Programming language comparison
Hi Hayden, When it comes to the Jaws scripting language it helps to have a basic understanding of the Windows Win32 API which those scripts are based on. If you don't hunder stand things like hindow handles etc then you need to study the Win32 API or pay for one of the Freedom Scientific scripting classes where this stuff is explained in more detail. Fortunately, for me I already had C++ incolledge and had read my fair share of books on the Win32 API long before I started working with Jaws scripting so there was absolutely no confusion for me. So what you found to be a nightmare was prety easy for me. This is where having some skill in a language like C++ is very handy bcause pretty much everything leads back to it sooner or later. Just depends on how advanced you want to get with your programming project. On Wed, 2010-02-03 at 19:38 -0600, Hayden Presley wrote: > Hi, > Ah zcode...great format for IF Games.

Re: [Audyssey] Programming language comparison
Hi Milos, Well, like so many things in life what is considered to be easy is completely a personal opinion.So before we can really have a reasonable discussion which language is the easiest we have to take in account what you would consider easy.Still I don't know what you personally would find easy I'll have to use my personal judgment here. Personally, in all my years of programming the easiest language for me to learn was C# .Net, called C-Sharp, because it has a C-style syntax without all of the complexity of C++. However, since C# .Net wasn't one of the options you have given me I'll try and compare the languages you did request information on. First, we have Python. As you pointed outyou didn't really understand the language so perhaps it is not a language you would personally consider easy.As for me I find the language easy enough to learn, but what I find confusing is keeping track of the formatting and spacing to define blocks of code. The formatting is a completely visual aid, and therefore it is more difficult to keep track of the code when using a screen reader. Other languages such as C++ and Java use braces to define blocks of code which I personally find more logical and easier to keep track of. So on account of the specific formatting and lack of syntax makes Python not as easy as it could be. As far as C++ goes it is the most difficult language on your list.The basic functions, headers, and syntax are easy enough to learn, but C++ also puts a lot of the responcibility of doing all the advanced low-level programming yourself.This is what trips up new programmers because they simply aren't equipped to manage his/her system resources on their own. For example,if you were to use system pointers in your C++ application to handle something like game sounds you have to remember to manually delete those pointersand release the system memory back to the free stack before loading new sounds or exiting the program. Failior to do so could result in some major memory leaks in your application. Unfortunately,asigning memory and cleanning up after you are done with it is something many new programmers fail to do correctly and do poorly. So C++ is largely considered an advanced programmer's language because of the skill and experience required to truly master the language. Ultimately I believe the easiest language on your list to learn is Visual Basic. It was my first programming language, the one my college taught first, and it is safe to say programmers generally find it to be a good starter language in terms of ease of use. The one thing that makes the basic type languages good choices for early programming training is the fact they tend to usewords to define blocks of code rather than relying on special formatting as Python does or relying on braces and brackets as C-style languages do. Plus basic languages like Visual Basic don't get into really advanced programming such as managing resources and memory which is both a advnatage and disadvantage depending on your outlook. So if you are talking where to start in terms of ease to learn I'd say try VB .net. Before I close I think it might be helpful to show you an example ofsome different programming languages to give you a better idea of what I am talking about above. I'll use a very simple program like Hello World as my example. // Hello World C++ #include int main () { std::cout << "Helo world!" << std::endl; return 0; } ' Hello World VB .Net Module Hello Sub Main () System.Console.WriteLine (0, "Hello world!") End Sub End Module As you can see the VB .Net version of the typical Hello World program is far simplar than it'sC++ counter part. As programs get bigger and more complex the ease of use factor of VB .Net over C++ will only become more so. The .Net Framework certainly simplifies many aspects of day to day programming simply because all of the low-level stuff you have to do in C++ is incorperated directly into the .Net Framework ready to pick up and use right away.For example, in my VB .Net sample I called the WriteLine() function. WriteLine() is actually a .Net wrapper function for the cout function used in the C++ code above. In larger more complex applications such as games this really pays off. One example that comes to mind is using the Microsoft XAudio2 library forgames. If you use the C++ library you pretty much have to design a custom sound manager from scratch to load wav files and get their attributes. Microsoft has sample code showing you how to do this, but never-the-less it is quite a lot to ask from a totally new programmer. If you use the C# .Net or VB .Net language with the SlimDX API for DirectX you don't have to worry bout all that low-level stuff.You simply make a link to the SlimDX library, include the XAudio2 namespace, and start programing since all the really low-level stuff is already taken care of for you. All you need to do is call the proper load functions and initialization fu

Re: [Audyssey] monopoly issue
Hi, Joining a game isn't logging on. By already in a game, do you mean you are actually playing Monopoly, or are you at the main menu? If you are already playing a Monopoly game, click the Leave this Game button. Click Yes when it asks if you want to leave the game. You should now see a few buttons. Click the button that says Join Game. Then, you should see several different buttons: Game Number with people Click the button with your friend in it. Once you have joined your friends game, she can press enter. If you did all the above, and it still tells your friend she can't play a game with yourself, you may have joined a different game by accident.

Re: [Audyssey] Programming language comparison
Don't know too many of the others, but the origin of the name of basic was something along the lines of: Beginner's All-purpose Symbolic Instruction Code honestly it was the closest to a programming language that had real english terms in it's syntax, but on the other hand that was based on things like QBasic a long time ago - over 20 years ago. It just meant it was partly, and sort of designed to be a starting point in terms of learning to program, but, yes, VB.Net is a bit different, but suppose it still does things like For..Next, instead of for () { }, like C# for example.

Hello all, As I am still newbie in programming, I would like to ask those of you who know, to compare the languages that I will mension here. The only thing I want to compare is how easy the language is to learn and why. For now I can program in the inform 7, and have learned jaws scripting. I tried python but I canceled studying because I didn't understand a single thing. So let's compare the inform 7, python, jaws scripting, vb 6, and c++ from the aspect of how easy they are to be understood. This question may seam stupid to experts, but still I would like the opinions on this. Best regards!

Re: [Audyssey] final countdown solo on expert guitarnowonsendspace.rock band 2
Yeah, I'm a drumer, but I play everything else as well. :D Although in reality, I'm a guitar player and singer, nothing else. - Original Message - From: "Yohandy" To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Wednesday, February 03, 2010 6:33 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] final countdown solo on expert guitarnowonsendspace.rock band 2 Thanks! Clement, you're a drummer correct? If so we should definitely get a different perspective on this.

But great job on the solo! - Original Message - From: "Yohandy" To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Tuesday, February 02, 2010 11:37 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] final countdown solo on expert guitar nowonsendspace. rock band 2 Thanks man! before I try explaining, a small correction. this song's in Lego Rock Band, not Rock Band 2. woops. I'm so used to playing rock band 2 I always refer to that game. it is possible to export lrb songs to rb2, and there are quite a number of good songs in lrb disc, so you guys should buy it regardless if you own a console and are into music based games. Now as for the way I learn songs: First thing I do is if what I'm trying to learn is difficult to hear on a particular instrument, I turn down the background sounds, music etc as much as possible and leave the soundtrack all the way up. so if this solo sounded louder to you than the official song, this is why. Apart from this, I think it all comes down to figuring out the timing, memorizing how your part is supposed to sound, and then going on practice mode and play the song section by section at 50% speed. there's also some common sense involved. in all rock band games I've played, the charting for notes and chords doesn't change randomly, unless of course the song has around 50 chords lol. if you played a green note for the first section of a song, and another section has you play that same note, then usually you'll play the same green note. so in the case of the final countdown, the button patterns for the various groups of triplet notes is always the same, unless some notes change or are added/removed. if you're playing on expert, you pretty much play every note as the musician intended the song to be played on a real instrument. for lower difficulties things slow down a bit. medium is more like playing half notes for example. I'd also be interested in the methods other people use. we could all definitely learn something new from each other! - Original Message - From: "Scott Chesworth" To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Tuesday, February 02, 2010 8:37 AM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] final countdown solo on expert guitar now onsendspace. rock band 2 Only just had a chance to check this out, nice work man! Yup, I'd be up for learning it if you'd be up for posting the rest of the tutorial.
