@Moorpheel Bah, fine lol. Why don't you allow the user to choose which one they want, but name them all differently like you have now. You could attempt to load the textures when they choose one, but check the RESULT variable to see if the texture exists. That way, people could have just one texture if they choose, or have all three at the same time without switching between them all.
Is there any way to prevent the LOAD command from showing an error message if the file isn't found?
I don't think so.
Sorry if I haven't been around for a bit. Finally got money coming to me that will allow me to upgrade my computer, so I've been spending a lot of time researching on parts to get.
Yay, forest creation screen done. I followed randomous's advice and the game tries to lad all three tilesets before anything else (and closes if none is present). Depending on which ones are loaded in the system, the creation screen and the item I mentioned before adapt themselves to it. Additionally, the item also comes with a chance of changing the character instead of the graphics, at random
The game is basically done, now I'm just looking for stuff to fix or etc.
@Discostew Lol with the computer. I know you're more than capable of programming whatever you want, so it's definitely not that. I'm sure you'll do just fine building a computer.
@randomous Oh, building computers is simple. I've been doing that kind of stuff for the past 2 decades (yes, I'm that old). It's a matter of putting together good components that are compatible with each other, offer the capabilities you need, and finding out the best prices that's the trickier part.
@Discostew That's the part I was talking about lol. A computer really only has 8 parts, and every connector/connection pair is apparent. Lol I didn't think you couldn't assemble a computer.
@Bluerobin2 But I can't seem to scan the qr codes. : ( Petit Computer might sell more programs? Maybe the original programer got in trouble for using company computers to create the game? @Discostew I put computers together when they had 30pin sims. lol. What happened to plug and play?
EDIT: Bluerobin2 I finally was able to scan the qr codes when I made them extremely large. Thanks,
Wow I haven't been on here in a while. So... I'm going to make an OS. The OS will not be like any OS out there. It will be a "simulation" of MS-DOS pre-5.0.
Any thoughts?
I just wanted to say thanks to those of you who used my QR Stitcher program! It makes me feel good that other people are getting use out of my program.
I've been wanting to add better functionality to the stitcher ever since I made it nearly 9 months ago. I finally got around to it after seeing @Moorpheel's resources in separate files... it made me realize that many many programs have multiple resources, and it seems like they're either always on separate sheets or manually placed together. So now the stitcher can stitch multiple resources into a single image! Here's an example: https://db.tt/YsLftf0j
This means that if you have the QR codes for sprites, colors, the program, etc all in separate folders, you'll be able to mash them all up into a single image instead of having separate ones for each resource. It even automatically creates subtitles based on the name of the directory, so there's literally no work involved beyond choosing the directory. You can choose to place the resources on separate lines if you don't like them all jumbled up as well. It also names the files based on the given title, so no more "qrstitch1.png" every time. On top of all that, it doesn't care about the QR code size anymore, so you can stitch together the mismatched sizes that PTC Utilities produces.
I really hope you can get much more use out of it than before!
