I've seen this, but its better it have someone you can turn to to help you out on some problems not covered by that doc.

If a problem arises, and you don't have anyone online right then to help you, post your problem and the effect code section here, and there will be a couple of people usually within a hour to help you out.

Shut up deadly.

2000's problem is mainly with Dev-C++, so I'm trying to work out compiling MSVC source on it right now. It keeps complaining that #pragma once is obselete and of course offers no alternative. Should I do anything other than the standard #define trick?

I did get irritated because

Explody is very helpful. And he is right, if you dont know how to program you shouldnt make bots, deadly. Im not sure if it was you, but i told someone that i would not talk to them about mervbot anymore until he learned how to program in c++. Your not dealing with some script that wont work, you can potentially crash a computer with your code or someone's mervbot. There are already enough people that are clueless about how to use mervbot, the last thing they need is to you use one of your plugins and have it crash every 5 seconds. Its appauling that you would place mervbot requests on your website and not know how to program. Deadly, learn to program.

I learned to program while trying to create plugins, I had no idea what I was doing though but eventually I got it to work with the help from others.

But well, I agree, learn to program before releasing plugins, otherwise they will be as crappy as my first plugins.

Deadly · Posted: Mon Aug 30, 2004 3:11 pm Post subject:

ok.. i have no purpose to learn C++, i can make good enough bots without knowing C++ you nerds can think what u like

Solo Ace · Posted: Mon Aug 30, 2004 3:25 pm Post subject:

Sure.

I wouldn't have tried to write those bot plugins if there was no better reason than messing with them, not that I do much with the language now.

But what you just said is retarded, you know a little C++ otherwise you can't make bot plugins, these people are just telling you to learn what you are doing.
I'm sure your bot plugins suck if you just create them without knowing what you are actually doing.
I started the same way as you though, and learned from it, I think you will too eventually.

Oh look I can call others nerds, oh look I use "u" instead of "you", LOOK AT ME IM K00L.

Now now, be nice.

Heres another point for the heap: If you know how to program you probably won't make plugins. *cough* MERV *cough*

Anyways... If you need help with your C++ and dev-cpp then I would be happy to assist if youre cunning enough to catch me on msn. However I can't and won't help you with MERV as I'd probably just be wasting your time cursing its ... uh? ... design? ...

So if I handle your C++ problems then I bet you can persuade splody and mmav to help you with your MERV issues.

I'm still trudging through it. Of course, MingW has problems with __int64 in some of the windows stuff, but I think I fixed that now. There's still a few other errors I need to get resolved.

Oh, and about #pragma once, I just took it cheap and surrounded it by #ifdef _MSC_VER.

k, tell him to turn off the 64bit portability detection, he isnt compiling for a 64bit chip so he wont need to have 64 bit variables in his program.
Project->properties->C/C++->Detect 64-bit portibility issues then turn it off

emileej · Posted: Tue Aug 31, 2004 11:22 am Post subject:

Just for the record: You can in fact have 64 bit integers in Dev-C++ (gcc) - the type is

Code: Show/Hide

long long

Well go figure...

what i mean by i dont know C++ is like.. i couldnt go and make a program.. i just make plugins for mervbot

let me rephrase it then

I dont know much C++.

Cyan~Fire · Posted: Tue Aug 31, 2004 5:25 pm Post subject:

Lol, ok.

50% Packetloss · Posted: Tue Aug 31, 2004 5:33 pm Post subject:

Sorry, talking about VC++ .net and i bet you can turn off those errors in dev-c++ too. A long long is a 64 bit variable and if you dont have a 64 bit microprocessor then the compiler will make a bunch of extra code to handle that 64 bits by spliting it up into 2 32bit chuncks.

Deadly, you dont know any C++, you mimic other people's code. Monkeys can do the same thing.

Cyan~Fire · Posted: Tue Aug 31, 2004 5:47 pm Post subject:

Actually, I got the newest version of Dev-C++ (and therefore MinGW), and bless me heart it worked... I think.
