RAWGML Project

Posted by Eternal on Sept. 22, 2006, 11:26 p.m.

Yeah, I'm tired, so I'm not gonna standardize or organize this blog. I'll just update you all on what's up with me.

–I've been getting into Social Distortion, and Steal This Album songs.

–Project-wise, here's what's going on:

–I have recently emailed Mark Overmars, about my new project. I am working on something that would run .GML files, to cut down greatly on filesizes. I know exactly how this will work, read through the License Agreement, and couldn't find anything legally against it. I contacted him, just to make sure though. This project is codenamed RAWGML. Here's how it's gonna work:

Using either an HTTP Downloader, or, if it works, a text reading function, it will read .GML files from… (key horror music) the internet! And of course, GML files on your computer.

Then, without using execute_string, it magically runs the GML file! (Yes, I know how this is going to work.)

Now, you are probably saying "GML files are just scripts. Not games. How is this gonna work?"

Well, as you know, scripts can be called as functions. I will be adding some small scripts, such as "do_sync". Now, this will make the chosen part of your script repeat in the step event. Also, there are always the event, object, and script adding functions. How will the program work?

It will run in two ways. The first way, it sets .GML files to open with it. The second way, you run the program, and then select a .GML file to run.

Pretty much, almost down to the letter, I know how this is going to work. I just need legal permission from Mark Overmars.

–I might be helping Kenon with a project. Not sure yet. Just in case, I've been working on the engine.

–I am making a surreal game for this Battle over at GMClans. It won't take long, I don't think I'll win, but what the hell, I'll give it a shot.

–This is a short blog. I've got to add filler somehow…

–Still adding filler…

I am considering learning some other languages. Any suggestions? I know VisualBasic, and some DarkBasic.

I need a new banner and avatar… I should work on that soon.

I have 100% in Math, even though I didn't turn any of the homework in. I have 104% in Spanish, but I don't understand it, and I only turn in half the homework. It's weird, man.

I still hate my Social Studies teacher.

I got Trillian, and ICQ.

So, yeah, that's my blog.

No, I just ace the quizzes, and get extra credit. I just don't do homework. I know all the material perfectly though.

Eh, no matter if you know the material, or do extra credit, you fail over here if you don't do homework.

Sucks, I know.

Ours used to be like that, but as you get older, the grade gets weighed more towards tests. Right now, it is 80-20, I believe.

I go to sleep in my spanish class and I have a B. Awsome. Mostly the teacher tells jokes and writes down some notes we have to copy.

It's true. Today he just brought his guitar and after he played it for a while, then he showed a video of animals gone wild from spike TV.
