Found something I designed for Quest YEARS ago... It was a design for a map making program.

Wasn't that just the front-end that you produced?
Didn't think it went any further.

Pretty much, I think i'd probably be able to produce something similar now that I'm more experienced. I'm going to try and develop some small 3rd party programs for Quest.

Does it do anything?

It was only a front-end design as CW said, but I'm pretty sure I can work on something similar and get it working. I'm gunna be writing some small programs first. They'd be pretty pointless though since most things you can do with QDK, but it wouldn't do any harm to learn how to make programs that write ASL code.

About a year ago I was thinking of writing my own client, but I'll have to talk with Alex about that.

If you can get any code out of him, that'd be ace .
I know I'm doing a C++ version, but it's hella hard to do it all 'correctly'.

And as for some front-end stuff, I guess it'd be cool.. Just as long as it isn't trying to imitate QDK at all.
I tried a coders part, which I wanted to have sort-of-macros in which pasted most of the room stuff for me to customise etc..
Room placement on a map would be nice I guess..
Other than that I'm stumped for ideas right now.

Anything I make, I'll release the source code with it. After all, Quest Centre is a learning resource.

I'll begin on small things first, and practice on getting the software to write basic ASL code, then perhaps move on to more complicated scripts.

What I'm really aiming for is a completely new client, designed for click-based play. You know how I LOVE click-based laziness

Doesn't that defeat the purpose of Interactive Fiction in its entirety?

shouldnt this be in another thread?

culd someone plz move it?

teh thnx.

Ugh! Ugh! Quest stuff! Get it out of my sight!!

Remind us all why you're here again??

It might be because it's early in the morning (For me anyway), but I didn't understand that.

I think he's referring to CC actually and her strange comment that something relating to Quest shouldn't be on the Quest forum.

Ahh, thank you David. Yes I thought it was rather strange myself. I better go post this on the Rap Music Forums instead.

Point of order

Is this not GENERAL CHAT?

THANKS DIASY. THAT IS WHAT I MEAN.

What ever happened to that little game thing you had going on? It was a nice way to kill these sleepless mornings.

what game thing?

How could you miss it? He's only released it about three thousand times with different names.

It was probably just under a dozen.

I thought it didn't work

Do people have that much of a boring life to not have the ability to move on? I find it a common problem with anti-social people.

The said "game" i work on, and change the name for "1,000,000" times is something I do in my free and spare time whenever i don't have anything better to do, which to be honest, isn't very often.

But I don't give a shit about that, so I won't comment on it any further. It's sad though that you still have to bring it up. You should try making friends and going outside in the sun once in a while, you might find that starting conversations about interesting things comes naturally after a few tries.

What game?

I'm not even going to bother discussing it... It's not made yet, when and if it is, maybe i'll talk about it.

Oh my God, Zelimos not talking about something not completed yet.... This is like black suddenly becoming white or something! Does this mean God will now become the devil and all of time will be destroyed?

On a more serious note: I've tried for a few years and still, nothing interesting to talk about..

Jeeze. I kindly compliment your game and I get yelled at! Injustice, I say! Injustice!

Now we know NOT to talk about that game with Zelimos
