The Dink Network

Okay, please don't get me wrong. There's still quite a bit of work to do. But I would like to give the ballpark date I'm shooting for for Windemere's completion. Keep in mind these are NOT definite and CAN change. There's still about 5-6000 lines of code to be coded for AI, Hardboxing, and all the Talon sprite functions.

Windemere
============================

Projected release: Late January - Early February 2005.
I no longer desire assistance with coding. (No one helped anyway.)

Talon
============================

Projected release: Completed.
No assistance is/was needed.

Darkwave (Windemere Editor)
============================

Projected release: Unknown (Late February - Early March 2005?).
Assistance has been found and the editor is being discussed.

As a corollary to the first post: I would like to release a mini-game with Windemere demonstrating its abilities. If you would like to participate in this, list your name here. I'll keep you on a list, possibly interview you, and contact you when the editor is nearly complete. Your name will be in the credits, w00t!

MY name stands in the left upper corner at my post window

As much as I would like to, I don't believe I'll have the time. Sorry old chap.

EDIT: Although, thinking about it, my exams are done on the 13th. So I probably could help.
Mind you, with this many applicants (as it were), I doubt my services (a very loose term) are required.

I think I have exams at the projected release date :/

Edit: as long as I'm not busy with my exams, sure, I can do something

I'm interested to work on it Contact information is in my profile.

Cool! I am looking forward to it! That is a short time to wait, especially for such a coll engine and editor. Even if it doesn't meet half of it's promise (though I expect it will reach a lot more of its promise than that) it will be way better than the Dink engine.

I, DraconicDink (aka Kane), would love to participate if for no other reason than to simply help out and to try the engine out.

My email, if you need it is, yalnar99.25aqi@gmail.com

Hey, I'll stick my hand up - just hope I have the time - we are talking mini though

I would definitly like to help especially if It gives a sneak peek at its abilities. send me an e-mail at igloo15@igloo15.com or look at my profile.

I can help. My E-Mail? Look in my profile. If that doesn't work... einar_hov@yahoo.no, isdn_suck@hotmail.com, einar@yahoo.no or jedisecret@gmail.com I'm only using jedisecret@gmail.com now. So you better send it to that one.

I might be able to contribute something.

Should this little town be modeled after the town Windemere in dink? I can make up some sprites for the buildings.

well any further news on this I looked over the lexical guide thing it seems like it will have alot more power then the current dinkc.

I haven't really done anything since I posted this announcement. I've been buggered with homework all this week. But tomorrow is Friday; I should have all weekend to work on it.

And you should take the time you need and want, since it is actually you that makes it, and this takes a lot of your time

The art looks quite a bit too rusty to show off windemeres capabilities, I'd want to make something to showcase windemere, but then I'd make a whole replacement of artstuff.

waiting for the engine then I guess :x

Eldron, I know you've been waiting for this for a while and have, in the past, volunteered to make graphics. If you're still willing to do this I'll send you an "unofficial beta" before I release Windemere so you can get started?

oh, that sounds great, I'm surprised someone even remembers who I am I'll add you on icq.

Can i get an early beta too??

He's only giving it to eldron so he can make GFX to it, why should he give it to you??

i didn't read that part sry my short sightedness.

Thats ok, I know that sounded a bit harsh.. SOrry

Hmmm... Maybee i could help with graphics. May be a splash screene for dark wave or something. I could show you some thing I've done with Illustrator.

I don't think so.
