hi all, Just an average gamer. It would be nice if some of the people do add couple of lines as to what it it and what they hope to do in the next one or two months. What kind of game could we see.
For instance I see/saw many an entries while they tell on a technical level what library they are using, they are not sharing the big picture. Even README's are absent on that atm.
While I have just taken a few, is there some sort of competitive advantage in not sharing what sort of game people are developing/going to develop or what?
Can people not submit to imgur. I like watching the art people are submitting and some of them are quite cool. I have been able to see stuff which is just attached to the post, stuff from imageshack. photobucket , everything except imgur. For instance this is what happens when I try to wget it :-
After waiting for five minutes I had to kill it.I could traceroute it but it's too early in the morning to get into that. The issues with imgur has been since a week (or maybe more), till the first time imgur was used/linked on this thread.
@xhrit nice, looking forward to play with those when your rpg is out :P
@ Anonymous. If it's going to be packaged in Debian then it would be nice to give the PTS (Package Tracking Service). Something like http://packages.qa.debian.org/0/0ad.html
Having said that for Debian packaging you would have to atleast give the source URL which *usually* is hosted somewhere else. For e.g. this is of 0ad .
$ aptitude show 0ad Package: 0ad State: installed Automatically installed: no Version: 0~r11863-2 Priority: optional Section: games Maintainer: Debian Games Team <pkg-games-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org> Architecture: amd64 Uncompressed Size: 8,458 k Depends: 0ad-data (>= 0~r11863), 0ad-data (<= 0~r11863-2), gamin | fam, libboost-signals1.49.0 (>= 1.49.0-1), libc6 (>= 2.11), libcurl3-gnutls (>= 7.16.2), libenet1a, libgamin0 | libfam0, libgcc1 (>= 1:4.1.1), libgl1-mesa-glx | libgl1, libjpeg8 (>= 8c), libmozjs185-1.0 (>= 1.8.5-1.0.0+dfsg), libnvtt2, libopenal1, libpng12-0 (>= 1.2.13-4), libsdl1.2debian (>= 1.2.11), libstdc++6 (>= 4.6), libvorbisfile3 (>= 1.1.2), libwxbase2.8-0 (>= 2.8.12.1), libwxgtk2.8-0 (>= 2.8.12.1), libx11-6, libxcursor1 (> 1.1.2), libxml2 (>= 2.7.4), zlib1g (>= 1:1.2.0) PreDepends: dpkg (>= 1.15.6~) Description: Real-time strategy game of ancient warfare 0 A.D. (pronounced "zero ey-dee") is a free, open-source, cross-platform real-time strategy (RTS) game of ancient warfare. In short, it is a historically-based war/economy game that allows players to relive or rewrite the history of Western civilizations, focusing on the years between 500 B.C. and 500 A.D. The project is highly ambitious, involving state-of-the-art 3D graphics, detailed artwork, sound, and a flexible and powerful custom-built game engine. Homepage: http://www.wildfiregames.com/0ad/
Of course, it could be argued that if you are into distributed development then nothing beats either github or gitorious (depending on your experience with them.)
I have already tried all the sites given above (except for ProyectoFedora.org and the Spanish and french-speaking sites). Hopefully we get to the target soon and have more people in the contest soon.
One of the other places in interest might be h-online.com but I don't see a way to tip/contact them.
I have sent all the people mails but wherever I have not got any response have been opening threads as time permits.
Actually I can't see this ' "Notify me when new comments are posted" checkbox checked. Where can this checkbox and comment can be seen ? I have not seen this at least on iceweasel 10.0.3 which I have atm.

For instance let me take a random example.

Just curious.

Now as far as hosting the code is concerned, there are many places. Here's such a list from Wikipedia with some comparitive analysis at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_open_source_software_hosting...
Of course, it could be argued that if you are into distributed development then nothing beats either github or gitorious (depending on your experience with them.)
what's TBS ? pointers please.
