General Discussion / mIRC won't work
Fri 23/07/2004 12:51:44
Ok, I can't connect to Quakenet. mIRC tells me...

* Connecting to uk.quakenet.org (6669)
-
-uk.quakenet.org- *** Looking up your hostname
-
-uk.quakenet.org- *** Checking Ident
-
-uk.quakenet.org- *** Found your hostname
-
-uk.quakenet.org- *** No ident response
-
Ping? Pong!
-
Your username is invalid.
Connect with your real username, in lowercase.
If your mail address were foo@bar.com, your username would be foo.


I can't find anything useful in the help, nor can I find a username in the options. Can anyone tell me what to do?

Thanks, Jim

Someone at school signed me up for this annoying horoscope text message service. This costs me 50p every day. I just wanted to know if anyone knew any way to stop em coming?

Thanks in advance, Jim

Well heres the problem...

I just got my pc back from the guy who got rid of everything on it and put xp back on and stuff, but he thought my name was matthew. Anyway, theres a folder C:\Documents and Settings\Matthew, but I want it as Dan, since matthew aint my name, and probably never will be. When i go to rename the folder, it says "windows cant rename this folder blah blah blah."

I just wanted to know, is there any way to change it?Ã,  ???

Thanks, Jimbo

General Discussion / XP or 98?
Thu 01/01/2004 19:58:39
I'm removing xp from my hard drive tomorrow, but I'm not sure whether to use xp, or 98.

Some things I have don't work on xp, but at the same time, xp has some features that i like.

What do you think i should use?

General Discussion / Need help!
Fri 17/10/2003 20:39:03
Normally, i don't care about telling people things. But I've had one thing on my mind for a year, and I've actually feared telling people.

My mum and dad haven't been getting on. But its been getting worse. This might seem evil, but I actually WANTED them to get divorced. But I felt a bit better a few minutes ago when my mum told me she's considering it.

But I'm finding it really hard. Like I have no one to talk to. I read something about Jonny Depp (sp?) and he said his parents used to fight, and he wanted them to get divorced. It occured to me that I'm not alone.

So, have any of you had this sort of experience, or have any advice? even if its a few words, it will be GREATLY aprieciated.

Thanks.

This is a character I've been working on for a game. He's a detective. I've got a little walking animation, but the colours got a bit screwed up, andsomething keeps happening that makes it wobble.






[EDIT]:

General Discussion / Popups
Sat 26/07/2003 21:07:00
I keep getting popups that sort of keep coming, and Its really starting to get annoying.

This is what they are like. There is a simalar one that tells me to go to http://www.endads.com and download somethingm, but I don't trust it. I also get one that keeps saying things like "Hi, I'm monica...blah blah blah... visit this website"

Its starting to come more often, and I'm getting quite worried. Any idea what the hell they are, or how to get rid of them?

I was pondering last night about antialiasing my backgrounds. Anyway, I wasn't sure, so I need your opinion. Which do you prefer?

This:



or this:



I rather like the antialiased one, but I really wasn't sure.

PS. Ignore the cparry GIF thing, and also ignore the windows. I will have that picture in either one, its just i lost the finished old one.

I've been working on this character for a very long time, but I still can't seem to get the frames of him walking right. No matter how hard I try, his legs either look too short, or he just looks completely strange. Anyway, here are the 2 frames I have done...



I have the first, and second frames (above), but  the rest seem to look strange.

If anyone could help it would be great! Because this is the main character, and its really getting quite annoying.

Thanks in advance,

Jimi

Is there a way to use scripting only? For example, rather than going to "Look at hotspot", is there a way of typing straight into the room script?
