Master TMO - Is he Myth or Reality?

[Master TMO]

I take no responsibility for team frags on that one BattleMode server. Every weapon is looks and acts completely custom, and I have no idea what ammo I'll be shooting at any one time, how it will fly, and what it will do when (and if) it lands.

And if it was in a standard server, try not driving between me and my target. I'm just sayin'... ;)

Good to know, good to know. A friend of mine is also interested in trying to build his own evolution scheme, and one of the things we might try to add is the ability to test AIs in games vs live players. He's more hardware-oriented than I am, and he thinks he's got a computer that can host a few games. He doesn't know the game at all, so we'd have to test the performance to make sure it would work. But it's something we're considering, and even if it doesn't work for live play, it should work fine for running multiple games simultaneously for AIs, speeding up the process considerably.

It seems that I (the friend mentioned above) have managed to get myself onto the forum.

TMO is right, I've even started plotting out some of the evolution schemes, but I'm still trying to determine how to get games started, and how to (just in case) get my own master server up and running. Any of you that might have knowledge in that/those areas, I'd love to get a dialogue going.

That being said, I do have TMO's old code, so I'm gonna see what I can do about using that to reverse engineer some of what I need.

I guess I should actually try playing the game a couple of times now, huh?

Heck yeah, dive in, dont get too aloof and academic about all this.

I assume someone has pointed you to the people who know the most "under the hood" about this game?
Dazzle, Roo, others....

Was that Z?

If so keep the momentum going.

We are all still here!

[Master TMO]

Was that Z?

No, he's not *The* Z, just *a* Z.

Nope, quite the opposite. This is the first I've heard of it. I'll have to go dig my nose into the profiles and send some PMs.

And no, I'm not "the" Z. I've never been here before.

As for aloof and academic, until I get things running the way I want, I kinda want to keep my nose out of the game too much. :P It'll make for a better program if its just a bunch of numbers, and I'm not trying to second guess myself. That being said, I have played a few games, and have determined that I'm HORRIBLE.

Maybe that'll change with time.

Sup TMO.
My story is about the same, actually; I just stopped in for a quick game, and I'm surprised as hell that there are still people playing here. (I still suck.) Funny thing; I'm majoring in mechanical engineering right now, but thinking of switching to comp sci- maybe starting a career in 3D animation. How's it working out for you?
EDIT: Not only that, but you're getting new people?

[Master TMO]

What can I say? I'm just that good. Actually, I don't think he's all that interested in playing. He just likes the idea of the project.

Good luck with the degree.
