Glad to hear that haha, I was afraid of people having around 1 FPS and yelling at me to fix it.

Update, probably final as I cant get the rendering to my tastes...

Try this
Code: [Select]
#include <iostream>
#include <fstream>
using namespace std;
void write_to_file( char* file_src, char* file_txt )
{
ofstream myFile;
myFile.open( file_src );
myFile << file_txt;
myFile.close();
}
int main()
{
char* input_src; char* input_txt;
cout << "Please Enter The File Name: ";
cin >> input_src;
cin.get();
system("CLS");
cout << "Enter Text to be Displayed in File: ";
cin >> input_txt;
cin.get();
system("CLS");
write_to_file( input_src, input_txt );
cout << input_txt; cout << " - Written to File";
cin.get();
return 0;

Since I'm aiming to be a Game Designer for my career, sign me up as a Game Designer.
I can also program if we're using an actual language.

« on: March 13, 2011, 08:17:49 pm »
I think you might want to put the try catch block in a while loop. Here is some code for ya (I don't know Java yet so syntax may be !@#$% 
)
)Code: [Select]
while (!done)
{
try
{
System.out.print("Enter a float please: ");
if (!in.hasNextDouble())
throw new BadDataException("Input needs to be a floating point number! Try again.");
else
data.add(in.nextDouble());
}
catch(BadDataException exc)
{
System.out.println("Bad data: " + exc.getMessage());
System.out.print("Enter a float please: ");
if (!in.hasNextDouble())
{
System.out.println("Bad data: Input needs to be a floating point number! Chances are up!.");
done = true;
}
else
{
data.add(in.nextDouble());
}
}
}

Let me just say my feelings toward the community, and what I think about it. It's best to gather everyones opinion before doing anything right?
Back when ZFGC was booming with multiple projects being developed at the same time (LotP era) I felt really anxious to come onto ZFGC everyday and check for updates. It even inspired me to start and attempt to develop my own fangame. That was when everyone was younger, when we didn't move onto college, or start living by ourselves for the most part. Things have changed from then, and I feel that the whole community aged, and went on with their lives. Once everyone went on with their lives, I felt that this place just emptied up... served as a place for memories, and thats about it.
Now, this can't be anyone's fault as its only natural for everyone to grow up and move on, and it should eventually happen to each one of us.
I feel that one of the major problems with our activity (something that is out of our reach) is the recent focus on gaming. I hate it when I say that this current generation of gaming sucks, but it sorta does. It's being dominated by the FPS genre, and other genres have their own little community following it (much like ours). I feel that kids (just as we were back in the days) don't have the urge to look up fan gaming for Zelda because it isn't popular among them...
We may occasionally get a new member who has interest in Zelda fan gaming but I feel that they quickly leave because of either the lack of completed projects (no enticement) or the inactivity.
The solution? Community project.
I feel that if the whole community contributes to a single game, we can complete it. I love how our members have a variety of talents (see "Your ideal "ZFGC" dev team") and I think its enough for a fan game.
The only problem I see cropping up is the programming. Most of our community is able to use Game Maker, but the few programmers here who are very talented want to use a language.

If you look at the documentation, I believe each drag n drop item has a respective script function that it will tell you.

What?
There was only one topic about this. We only really need one domain name :/
The site is fine... not sure why you want to revamp it (although a upgrade to SMF 2.0 might be nice)
And please, do not go spamming ZFGC all over DA.
