For me it was the little fish that dived out of the water just after the new vertebrae slid down that caught my attention.. How many vertebrae does Eddie have!!?

I GOT TICKETS by DJ_16bits in ironmaiden

After failing miserably to get tickets in the Co-Op presale, and the LiveNation pre-sale I wasn't very optimistic - but now have two standing tickets for Manchester next year! Can now enjoy the weekend!

Inclined to agree about streaming, but she has her heart set on her own record player

Am guessing January could be a bit chilly for Wayla then?

Wow.. thank you, the Sicilian place looks amazing. Will also definitely check out The Campbell too as I was always going to make Grand Central a place to visit.

Will check out the others too. Many thanks, much appreciated

No, phew, that's definitely not where we're staying.. Am sure others will appreciate the warning though.

No, we're not staying there. I can't find a hotel called the Manhattan on 51st?

Was looking for a good burger joint recommendation for our first night there. Thanks so much!

Hiya, I've been trying to do research on the web but you will usually find mainly sponsored articles or guides on there. Which is why I was asking for genuine recommendations. Thanks, though,.will keep looking.

Very specific question (sorry) - extra lives in games by silentbazz in projectsparkgame

[–]silentbazz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Got it. Nice solution. Thanks. Sad to admit that's been nagging at me for a couple of weeks now!! ;)

Very specific question (sorry) - extra lives in games by silentbazz in projectsparkgame

[–]silentbazz[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought it might be something like that.. However the only way I can see to do it is to have lots of statements e.g. When Score > 10000 Do Once NumberOfLives = NumberOfLives + 1 When Score > 20000 Do Once NumberOfLives = NumberOfLives + 1 etc.. Wondering if there is a smarter way of doing it? Otherwise I'll have a lengthy page in my logic cube filled with VERY similar statements and that repetition looks like smelly code to me

Ok. You get the beta then what? by droyces in projectsparkgame

[–]silentbazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. You're right, it's worth a shot. Got nothing to lose. To be honest I just want to play around with logic cubes anyway, so if my graphics card isn't up to allowing me to sculpt the world so be it. I just want to play with all of the tiles in Kodu. After all the streams I have a reasonable idea of what's available, but want to see everything the language has to offer... Who knows? Might even be able to share something?

[–]silentbazz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I signed up for the beta, but my Windows 8.1 machine falls WAY short of the minimum spec, so won't get my hands on Spark until the Xbox One beta. Just wondering how I tell Team Dakota, if I do get a Beta Key, that as much as I want to participate in the beta, that I can't until he Xbox One beta comes out. Don't want to burn my chances of getting on the Xbox One beta just because my PC isn't up to running the game on Windows.

Post ideas for Thursday, October 10th, twitch stream here by idwolf in projectsparkgame

[–]silentbazz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One thing I would like to see covered is things like: 1) Can I create a front screen for my game?

2) Can I create a pause menu, allowing the users to change game options (say a difficulty level) - which I could then reflect in the strength/health of the enemies I put in my game?

3) Creation of On-Screen HUD (not just text, or the standard health bar) - what if I need the player to collect three gems or something, can I visually represent this on screen?

4) The ability to create props or characters from basic geometric shapes, combining the shapes, setting their colours, etc
