The best way to put units into a game?
Evil_Toaster:
sorry for off topic posts...
rapso, and anyone who likes it
Question concerning TFTD and other old games:
On what kind of PC do you play it?
Your old 486 / P-133 or something?
My problem is, that TFTD and UFO are not playable
on newer computers, like my duron 700.
Has anyone found a *GOOD* slow-down program,
that isn''t so "jumpy" like many I tried out?
I suppose slow-down programs can work properly
in DOS only.
But all programs I found are crap.
Maybe I''ll have to try it myself, but if so many
programs of that kind don''t work, I suppose it''s not so
easy.
I''ve codet one, but you know, it''s very simple, somthing like this:
void main()
{
int _delay=0xffff;
int _sleep=20;
while(1)
{
for(int a=0;a<_delay;a++);
sleep(_sleep);
}
}
you''ve to experiment with the delay and sleep values.
sometimes it works pretty well,
but the best way to play it, is my little pentium60 server
rapso->greets();
void main()
{
int _delay=0xffff;
int _sleep=20;
while(1)
{
for(int a=0;a<_delay;a++);
sleep(_sleep);
}
}

by the way, if you liked tftd, you will probably also like Incubation, which was freely downloadable from theunderdogs, but it seems to be gone now 
I just some someone makes an online version of it someday ... i know theres LSN, but thats only the battles, i think the base management in geoscape etc was just as much part of the game

HEY, TYLON. NO NO NO !!!! I also nearly got a shock,
when I, as usual, typed in the url,
expecting to load the great site.
But what did I see instead?? Some f*cking uninteresting
whatever business page. DOHH!!
I thought, IDSA m/fs finally got ''em killed.
(hey, you m/fs, it''s ABANDONware, no f*cking buck will
be lost for any company !!!)
BUT, WE''RE LUCKY !!! they only changed url,
just a minus character between the two words!
(the-und...)

gib nicht mir die schuld, der verdammte uralt-braun
wird langsam stumpf, wie war das, man bekommt eine
vergütung für den alten, wenn man einen neuen braun kauft?
muss ich mir noch überlegen...
hhmm... where did you get that information??
I like playing some isometric games, but I''m not making a 2D engine.
Well, if I have time (rarely), I continue working
on my 3D engine, and some other stuff.
Well, I did a pretty simple 2D, some time ago...
Only suited for C and C red alert / warcraft like games.
I think baldur''s gate is "slighlty" better

Well, at least a bit
I greeted the other german fellow, and he asked me,
if I was programming a 2D engine. Nope.
the unshaven bastard
rapso:
uhh, didn''t watch this thread for a while,
are u still watching it?
I don''t have a hpage yet, but I''m going to put up a very simple one (when I will have the time...),
with some links to downloadable stuff...
just downloaded "selfhtml", didn''t do any www stuff before,
it''s f*cking boring to me...
