Game Development: Salem & Haven

[dagrimreefah]

Hurr Durr. I'm gonna be the lone dissenting voice. You literally "don't" have a life do you?

Wow, anyone says anything about that fucking shitty piece of garbage game, and you always come out of the woodworks to defend it. You even go as far to get mad about it and start insulting like a child. And you speak of others having a life

Can you literally be on the Topia devs' dicks any harder?

Can't you keep Topia stuff at it's thread pls ?

Soooo, how about making our own version of Haven? I have seen some efforts, but have only started learning the programming part ( currently learning python). I know there is a lot of talented members here. I would like to be a part of something like that, i think. Are there any current projects going on right now?

Thanks for the link sabinati. I am currently working my way through this one:

I will definitely read this html book through, tho. Zed seems to cover some more base concepts, and he is working in python 2, where Sweigert is covering his material in 3. Any opinions on which is the better version?

Aren't you supposed to be 40 or something? Then why do you act like an autistic 10 yr old about that game? LOL kettles and pots

EDIT: just noticed the python link. I've worked with and have had friends work with python before. It is very versatile and not hard to learn at all. I suggest looking into that. Some dude I knew made a text based, career-mode style lucha-libre wrestling game in his first 3 days of learning python. That should give you some sort of an indication of how easy python is to learn.

As for the better version: it has been a while. I couldn't tell you.

@synntax33 fellow hermit

i'd go for 3 right away as it's the newer and afaik some stuff in 2 will be obsolete soon and 3 isn't backwards compatible - when you're not going to work on projects that are already done with v 2 prolly 3 makes more sense - btw no problem to have both installed (in different folders) - that's what i use...this might come in handy ltr too: http://docs.python.org/2/library/2to3.html - http://python3porting.com/noconv.html

pdfs with overview of differences:
http://www.python.org/doc/essays/ppt/eu ... Euro08.pdf
http://ptgmedia.pearsoncmg.com/imprint_ ... ython3.pdf

lately i didn't do much with Python but i started to learn it by modding stuff for games (mostly Battlefield2) - a good way to make first steps...

Awesome, thanks borka, that makes alot of sense. I hope to write my own game from scratch soon, instead of the typing verbatim of pre-made programs. Exciting Then the errors will be real errors, not just my simple typing mistakes lol

A programmer may try to get you to install Python 3 and learn that. You should tell them, "When all of the python code on your computer is Python 3, then I'll try to learn it." That should keep them busy for about 10 years.

honestly I don't know enough about 3 to say. 2 works fine for me so far, though!

The major syntax is the same - if you want to learn it from start now it prolly makes sense to take the "newer" version - another pro: Al Sweigarts book are free downloadable pdf books, you have links to all needed files and source codes...

And you can ltr do v2 stuff when you learned + understand the basics ...
