After looking through some old things on the DN [unforgettable things] I have one question, did something bad happen to Raven and every other good D-mod Maker? I'd really like to Play the Green voice 2.

What's "real life" I think I heard it before, it must not be that important for Dinkers.

Real life is that thing that happens when you step away from a computer even for a second. It consumes your soul and stops you from approaching a computer for the rest of eternity.

I disagree. 
It seems that there are still idiots on this forum who believe in real life. What's next? The world doesn't revolve around my PC?

Real life is what happens when your computer breaks and you have to stop and fix it or buy a new one.

It's basically all about making the money to buy and upgrade the PC. Infinite loop.

What about if I don't leave to make money to upgrade my PC?

Then when your computer dies, you will sit there, staring at the blank screen, rotting along side your inoperable computer until you wither and die.

What about if we're too young to get a job and don't want to rot along side my computer?

Also is there a way to bring back the people that have fallen in our abyss that is known as the....the... I'm not sure.

I used to visit the network A LOT in the past, although I didn't have an account yet.
Maybe it's the same with these guys, maybe they are still here, just not active in the community anymore.
I believe this is the case with Tal, and maybe even redink (although it seems he simply dumped the whole thing).

Also, if anyone is upset about no recent DMODs, DO something about it !
King Daniel wants YOU for the Dink Network !
Make a DMOD today and get free cookies !

There is actually a fair amount of people actively working on a dmod. I know there's the "Upcoming dmod list" but at least 75% of those are never going to be released.

I'm guessing there's about 6 dmods currently being made. So assuming people finish them, there should be a decent number coming out next year. I find it unlikely any will be coming out this year, but you never know.

Make that 7 (counting mine).
It is supposed to be an epic, but I may decide to cut it short if my free time gets low.
I mean, it's better to get a quest released then nothing at all.
No previews as of now, but I may release a demo.

If I could work on d-mods again, I could get tons of work done on D-mods, maybe not as much on the first day since I need to learn more about Scripts, though the problem got worse when I asked for help, now I can't even play a D-mod or map one.

@Dack

Why can't you work on DMODs ?

Well when I asked for advice in a previous topic for help in my scripting problem, I followed the parts that I could understand and I thought I got it all right, but something must have went wrong so now I can't try to create a new Dmod as to Map, or play Dink. Though I am not entirely mad at it, but like I said, maybe I did something wrong.

Edit: the topic is in the next list of topics.

Never be afraid to ask, but don't demand an answer

For problems like that I suggest you try the chat. While people there are silent a lot, you can get answers if you have a question, and if you're really stuck (sounds like you can't even start anything up), that is the fastest way to get it working again.

Speaking of which, did you ever get the sideways walk thing working the way you wanted it to?

I'd much rather not use the chat, since there are some weird people there who just sit there all day, I'd rather try a topic.

I did. There didn't seem to be a nice way using sprite 1 (your solution would work, but it's very far away from what I'd call nice. ) So I just sp_nodraw'd sprite 1 and created a new sprite with the repeat brain (is that 9?) and without a base_walk. Not too nice either, but nice enough.

Please Cindy, say the whole name each time. 
The repeat brain is 6. 9 is the standard enemy brain (everything in the original game but dragons and Seth).

Ok, then I used that one.

With my editor, I'm using names instead of numbers, which means I don't remember the numbers.

Yeah… I tend to just go for working. To me it doesn't really matter if it's nice or not.
