You worked on this for a year?!  :o

yes i plant to relies it earlier but got interrupted it was OK n in my opinion but now i see that there could have been some improvements

You have a lot of ambition, but would it really kill you to use spellcheck?

And about voice acting, have you considered any members on here to do it for you? There are a lot of talented people here that can surely assist you.

You worked on this for a year?!  :o

And always search first. There's a ton of topics covered on this.

Damn! That's brutal!

I love my Wii. Of course I hacked it with LetterBomb so now it's even better. I can play emulators of NES, SNES, Genesis, GBA, GBC, Pc Engine, N64, PSX.... You name it it pretty much has it. Not to mention you can get ScummVM on it too.

And of course there's the USB loaders and Wii isos... you get the picture.

Also, Resident Evil Archives is a nice set to get if you're into those, as well as RE4 Wii Edition. Sure they're ports, but still excellent games. And the Metroid Prime Trilogy. The first two play so much better with the Wii controls. The newest Donkey Kong Country game is awesome as well.

I really have no problem with it. My uncle Mike is gay, and growing up I never saw anything different about him, so no reason to now knowing he's gay. Some people act like it's a disease or something.

Yeah well, I don't have to worry anymore. She just confessed to me today that a month ago, while we were still together and engaged, that she cheated on me. So its time to move on regardless.

I will be looking for work again, and next semester when I can apply for college I will apply again and finish.

Thanks for the advice guys. Especially you InCreator. You're very knowledgeable in this area.

* Don't marry at 21. Reasons serious enough to marry this young exist in movies and books only.

* Look for a better job. If you're young, healthy male, forget internet/paper ads, just pick a large company and go physically there.
"Hey, I'm hard-working, quick, precise and stuff, have anything for me?". Most large companies always do.

If you're a smoker, you could find smoking spot and buddy up with workers, telling your story. You could get someone to introduce you to boss rather easily and vouching for you.

And forget about your education, don't even mention it unless needed. Also, physical, non-office jobs pay alot better if you're in the gutter, mostly because they pay for what you have: energy and health, and not some abstract skills that are not in your CV.

* Learn a marketable skill/profession. Small Business Admin? That's bullshit. We have a whole generations of business admins coming out, not finding any job because world doesn't work on paper pushing only. It might work out now some way, but what if you're 40 one day? Most mistakes people make are exactly at your age.

Easiest way to secure a profession is to get license to operate something, like a bus, truck or forklift. That's a good start.

If all fails and you still feel you're too undisciplined to succeed, just join the military for a year or two. That's what it's for.

Yeah, guess it's kinda late to change majors and start over. My major basically includes accounting, customer service, marketing, and human resource management, with regular math and english courses thrown in. I was actually thinking of finishing this semester off, and going to another college for a Culinary degree. I just have to make sure it's worth it.

Every application I've filled out has been down to the point and nothing left out. I'm gonna apply to a company here without putting my school work and see what happens.

And WHAM I know physically going there is what you're supposed to do. I guess I have been too nervous to do it. I will try to do that tomorrow when I go apply to some other places.

There are 3 major sources of distress in (personal) life:

- lack of time
- lack of money
- and worst of all - emotional problems (including the sense of lack of purpose)

But at 21 you still have a lot of time to master at least some of those.

At least you shouldn't worry that you're worse off than the majority. Just try to stay away from things and people that hurt you. Don't be afraid to risk quitting something, changing environment etc. Keeping yourself imprisoned in only one situation, just because you know it well, may easily lead to long periods of unhappiness.

I'm not afraid to change anything, but the period where I get over her and move on is really painful. I guess I have to grit my teeth and go at it full speed. I was reading some things on how to help get over this, and so far everyone including you has said almost exactly what the articles say.

Now, there is something that you have to be clear about: Do you really love the girl, or you're in love with your IDEA of that girl?

I guess it's because she makes me feel good about myself. I don't feel like a loser, sitting on my laptop all day or playing xbox all day until I pass out. Plus, all my friends have girlfriends, so that means getting out and doing things. You know I've never danced in a club until 2 years ago? All while I was 18, I never went to clubs because I was afraid I would never fit in. But we all went a couple of times and I felt on top of the world. I think that's what I'll miss most; the connections to others through her, like her family and her friends, who are great and I appreciate them a lot. But other than that, I loved her because she was mine, and she had gone through a lot of things that I had gone through, so we related. We also had the same dreams; getting a house, being successful, getting married one day, having kids.... if you asked me 2 years ago if I wanted any of that, I would have laughed in your face, but now I almost wish I could do all of that. That means something right? How does a girl come along and make me do a complete 360 in the way I think about life?

Maybe I'm just a sucker. I've thought a lot about this, and I think with all the things she's done to me in the past, and now recently, that she's never going to change, and that I should just get out and move on. I mean shit, I'll be 21, it's not really time for a relationship yet. I still need to get things going for me first before I can share them with someone else. Walking away and staying away will hurt a lot for a while, but I believe it's what I need to do and you have all told me that as well.

It's good to know that whatever is getting you down, you can come here or anywhere and get help. I really appreciate this guys.

I'm almost 21, and so far I:

1) Still work for minimum wage doing two jobs (at the same place; go figure) in a restaurant. And that's not combined wages.
2) Failed my final semester for a Small Business Administration degree at college.
3) Just got kicked to the curb by my fiance of 2 years.

My life is a big laugh. I drive a 95 Saturn SL Series with 228,000+ miles on it. I'm facing suspension or revocation of my driver's license because of two speeding tickets I received last month, not counting the NUMEROUS times I've gotten tickets for speeding already.

I know it's all my fault. Here's my question:

Did anyone else find themselves questioning just what the fuck to do in life? Right now I want to marry this girl if she decides to get back with me, and move on from there. Other than that, I'm finding that I am not interested in my major at college, but I can't just quit; I have one more semester left. I hate it though. I'm excellent at it, sure, but I hate it.

It feels like mid-life crisis or something. I'm stuck on this girl and feel like it's the only thing I have going for me, and now she probably hates me. My job is dishwashing but slowly moving up to cooking, in an Italian/Seafood restaurant with a gigantic asshole for a boss, constantly breathing down my neck. Also, no benefits. Even better, working 4 days a week, sometimes doing both BY MYSELF with no help, on nights where we serve between 50-100 dinners, and I have to cook and keep track of dishes by myself....

With the economy the way it is, I've had no luck finding full time work anywhere, and this has been almost a 3 year search. I'm starting to think this is hopeless and I honestly don't know what to do... Maybe because my heart was broken into pieces recently for this specific reason. It's not that I hate cooking; I love it. I just hate the pace of it and lack of any long term benefits.

And this girl.... been a lot of problems over the years, but I feel like she's been worth it. She's been hard to trust, because of all the things she's done to me in the past, but I managed to forgive her and get over them. I got engaged to her and it was the best thing in my life, or so I thought it was. I know I'm young, and you're going to say how stupid I am, but every day without her is boring, unfulfilling, and pretty damn depressing. Could be because all my friends work, or that I don't have any great habits. Doing anything usually requires money, and pulling in around 130$ paychecks every week isn't enough to go do anything, especially when you have bills. But now she's broken up with me, due to a trust related issue, and now I feel like I have nothing. We have been hanging out, but it's a lot different... She says we will probably be back together, but not being engaged again is so difficult. Not to mention that being with her now is awkward. We kiss each other, lay with each other, but never do we say we love each other... I don't like it. I feel like if she loved me it wouldn't just disappear and that she could still tell me. Maybe violating our trust hurt her a lot. It sure as hell hurt me a lot...

I guess what I'm trying to say is, my life is spiraling downward pretty fast, and I don't know what to do. Has anyone felt the exact way I do now? Hopelessness? No way out? Not to mention my lack of passion in ANYTHING. I've been playing guitar for almost 3 years and I can't even play more than 15 songs, or sing and play at the same time. I have the newest version of AGS, and I haven't opened it since the day I installed it, along with numerous paint programs.

Maybe I asked for this somehow. I have a lot of regrets...

I don't know. Everything just feels wrong. I have no one to vent to, so I came here. Any words of wisdom will be much appreciated, preferably before I go insane.

The forums aren't letting me search, but there are quite of bit of questions pertaining to this in the Tech Forum and Begginer's Tech forum. Maybe search in those for "How do I make a bullet?"

...when I was still icey and in the state of mind that square enix was my best friend. ...

Yeah, you totally turned that around. Good work. 

Yeah, but Wheels on Meals is really WHEE-ARD (and has less Kung-Fu!).

I think they starred in 1 or 2 more, but Dragons Forever was the best one by far from the ones I saw.

Oh definitely. I'm just saying Wheels on Meals is another great addition staring those 3. Even though it doesn't have as much fighting, it still has Benny the Jet and Jackie Chan squaring off in one of the best fight scenes ever.

Yup, love a bit of Jackie Chan, Sammo Hung, and Yuen Biao.

DRAGONS FOREVER!

Oh yeah - that was a great film. Should be better known given how good it is and that the 3 star in it together.

Same with Wheels on Meals.

Wow what a major improvements from first demo built!

Just a question, I managed putting two red orbs on door, is that end of this demo?

If not, can anyone explain?

Yeah, that's the end of the demo.

Alan, you have a masterpiece here. The graphics are perfect and the mood was immediately set.

My biggest scare:

Spoiler

The mass of things that suddenly appeared when I got the second red orb. That freaked me the hell out and I honestly panicked and quickly drew the amber orb from my inventory.

[close]

I would say The One counts. I guess any film with martial arts would count, so you are correct Monkey.

And watch Black Dynamite. It's hilarious, and good fun.

OK monkey, fair enough.

And Black Dynamite is awesome.

I've got nothing against subtitles, but if I was going to watch a foreign film, there's a good chance that I'm going to watch the English audio version wherever available.

And let's face it, audio dubs of kung fu films are notorious for being hilariously bad. That was one of the very motivations for Kung Pow! And then add in the fact that most of Kung Pow is just clips from other existing films...

Kung Pow: Enter the Fist! is a bad audio dub of a remix of several other films, with connecting original film recorded, and high utilization of special effects to create continuity and additional footage.

So in what regard does it not qualify? Because I could point out a dozen kung fu films without trying that are guilty of exactly the same things.

I just meant that it's more of a novelty. Like Epic Movie, Disaster Movie, etc... just poking fun at the genre.

I have it... honestly, they could use work. Yeah it's only 8 bucks a month, but you get a selection of sub-par movies. Granted you get to watch TV shows is awesome, but they really need to improve the selection of their movies.

I'm not sure lol. I don't think so, since it's more comedy then anything.

Sorry to double post. Just didn't want to have a huge post clustered.

I watched Ip Man 2 last night, and it was pretty awesome.
