Projector Games goes live...

Thanks to some inspiration from the last LAN, an OLD idea of mine has finally been dusted off and brought back to life:

It'll be moving to projectorgames soon... but go and check it out... hopefully have something for the next LAN.

Oh, and if ANYONE has any shitty old USB controllers they don't want anymore, drop us a line, and I'll see about relieving you of them... nice one

Sounds cool - keep us informed of how it goes, won't you?

If you need any help from a novice C++/OpenGL/DirectX programmer, gimme a shout

127 pads? sound like fun

Most games will probably support 32 players... I've yet to think of a game mode that will run happily with 127 players - ANY ideas, please post them here... we've got maybe 6 or 7 games lined up for production currently, but all ideas are more than welcome... show us your game design skills here guys. Full credit will be given, 'course.

I must be missing something at your site:

Fatal error: Unable to open index.php in Unknown on line 0

You're missing the fabled 'f5' button.

Maybe I am moving it? Ohhhh.

(No, I'm not. It's broken. Never mind, that's what happens when the CODE MONKEY starts advertising URLS TOO EARLY

that was the most un-seahorse-ish post I've ever seen seahorse post.

I take it theres a deleted post here somewhere??

yeah, before my last post was a post from seahorse basically, bitching about counter-strike cheaters.

DjArcas · Post by **DjArcas** » Sun Jan 12, 2003 4:20 pm

Er. Shuttup about Counterstrike. This is a thread about lots of players on ONE screen

And it's gotten pretty damned playable in the last couple of days... does ANYONE have any unwanted USB controllers or hubs lying around, come on!?

DjArcas · Post by **DjArcas** » Sun Jan 12, 2003 4:29 pm

Except I have no recolection of posting it, so I deleted it and changed my password as a precaution...

It is normally just after doing all the security checks and going to all the trouble to change passwords and delete posts that people realise, "oh maybe I did write that after all, damn!"

I take it you didn't make that mistake though

I had an early night & the post was 3 hours after bedtime. Maybe I was sleep surfing...

eclipse · Post by **eclipse** » Sun Jan 12, 2003 10:37 pm

haha, people have been known to do some crazy things whilst sleeping, even driving I think. maybe people have known to use computers

would be funny to find out.
