hey guys, sorry i couldn't reply earlier; Christmas shoppers chewed me up today (well, saturday), and spit me out. I hate to shop...anyways, I have been thinking for about 2 minutes now about what you guys said earlier today. If I may give my two cents in the community "take a penny, leave a penny" bowl...
1) for the use of sounds, scripts, and blah blah -- I thought he (seth) stated that as long as the "terms of use" info is complete with the game, AND you have written permission, you may distribute the game in some form or fashion commercially. Now, naturally, I'm not quoting scripture here and saying this is the exact intent. But that's my interpretation on the matter. Correct me if I'm wrong, please.
2)on the matter of directX -- crap. But if doesn't rely on directX, then Great! Otherwise, well...sorry, I had a midthought. I could rewrite some parts of the code. But, then again, doesn't everyone rewrite some code depending on the transitions of systems, consoles, whatever else...? Wouldn't mind doing it, but that doesn't mean I would like it. Kudos to merlin for thinking of the part that would proly suck the most then. ugh, just thinking about it makes me sick.
3) Good News though! Graphics would be a breeze for me! I am a webmaster. so what, right? well, I have to work with regular, boring programming stuff all day, but I also spend a lot of time with Macromedia Dreamweaver, Flash, Fireworks (eat it Adobe!) and, well, all of the Mac stuff. Enough digressing! I can convert the images though VERY easily; and could even update them if I felt like it.
4) Audio -- on the GBA is relatively easy, just convert and save to cart. But it would take up some space.
5) filesytem -- yah, this would suck because I'm not sure what you mean. please explain.
6) Jamie, I don't know who you are, but if I smelled something, it would probably be you.
7) Finally, thanks for the compliments / criticisms! Much appreciated! This is what this whole thread is about. I will be starting to seriously look into the code next week guys. I'll keep you posted.
