 Posted: Tue Oct 28, 2003 4:54 pm Post subject: how many of you would be interested in a PyThon RPGToolkit |
[quote] |

I was thinking of creating a Python/PyGame/Numeric based RPGToolkit/Library. The basic concept would be a set of tools that anyone can use with any langauge (as long as they build/have some code to import the data), written in Python/Pygame etc to be cross-platform with little problems.
Of course the library that will come packaged with it will be Python/PyGame specific, but it shold be fairly simple to write importer/exporting tools in other langs. I already have some absic functions mapped out that could easily work in C++ and Allegro. But the primary focus would be Python/PyGame just because of the severe lack of such tools in that environment (ie: in C/C++ you can find tons of map-editors and map engine libraries on the net)
I already have some basics done (map editor + map engine library, character editors, etc)

I think you're going about this all wrong.
You should finish the toolkit and then see if anybody wants to use it.

Yeah, market studies are bullshit. People should waste as much time as possible on tasks without any concept of the demand for their work.
Myself, I have no use for any toolkits.

heh- ok, let me paraphrase a bit- it wasn't really 'hey who's interested', but more of a 'hey this is what i'm working on, but i don;t want to phrase it like that cause it sounds lame'. Better?
it was meant to start a discussion, (you know, the basis of what these forums are), not be like ' hey i'm doin this here market study. blah blah blah'
sorry if I misconstrued myself. it's easy to do so when surrounded by assholes.... *cough*happy*cough*
heh. btw- yes, i am drunk as fuck right now. Gin is my daddy.

I am interested in seeing your toolkit, but I probably won't actually use it, at least not without modifying the crap out of it. Canned toolkits rarely give me enough flexibility to do what I want to do.

I knew you wanted to start a discussion. But it would've been mainly masturbatory, like most of the discussions you tend to start.
Ostentatiousness is a disease.
The first step to recovery is admitting you have it. I'm just trying to help. (Because I care about you. Man.)

Happy- it's a problem I picked up from you. It's like smoking. except more annoying, and gives you tastier cancer.

Right you won't be able to use it without modifying it...think of it more like a library with tools to use with it.

Got as good a track record as anyone else around here. Except maybe DarkDread. What do you expect for something I do in my freetime, dipshit? How about you login so we can harass you to your face?

Ok, calm down people or bad things will start to happen...
If this thread continues to get personal I will step in to stop it.
Just try to keep it civil ok?

I have a hard time requesting features for imaginary libraries and engines. I'll be glad to give suggestions and comments once it's actually working and I can see how it's architected and how it functions. Sorry.
