some guy's working on a multiplayer ev. hehee there's a working verion at: (url="http://"http://kubrick.cdes.qut.edu.au/~n2740281/hwtest.sit")http://kubrick.cdes....0281/hwtest.sit(/url)
the webpage's pretty cool too. (url="http://"http://kubrick.cdes.qut.edu.au/~n2740281/")http://kubrick.cdes....u.au/~n2740281/(/url)
i even heard on the grapvine that this is actually a stolen prog from ambrosia!!! i'm not sure how reliable this is, but i'm sure worthwhile scandalous replies and retort will find the truth.
hahaha, i'm gonna get my arse kicked.
quick update: it might even be Ebonncito's game. could be. maybe i could learn assembly for the powerpc processor and help them with it. i'm sure it couldn't take too long. it is a reduced instruction set processor afterall. i'll say max 50 opcodes to learn. DONE!!! i'll be right over boys. give me time and i'll reverse engineer macosx. hell, darwin is opensource anyway. cocoa and carbon will be a cinch. i actually went to a osx server demo the other day and i swear, the most common phrase was, 'Apple owns....". hehehe. im 0wn3d by apple. but i must digress. oh, hang on. the point was, soon apple's new slogan will be "all your base are belong to us" or "all your X are belong to us" or "all your support are belong to us" or even better "frog blast the ventcore". now i digress. ------------------ Where the Hell's my roof?

Er. That was kinda, random. Oh and PPC isn't pure RISC, it has a lot of CISC features in it. And even pure RISC chips like MIPS or Crusoe are hard to learn, imagine trying to learn a Pentium 4's assembler! You see over the years chips have gotten a lot more complex. Even the easiest of chips (the MIPS, the best to). The most intelligent of the geeks have a lot of trouble learning this. I know only 1 person who has learned it. A college Linux network admin learned it over a grueling semester.

but the man in the store said it'd be easy! and they never lie. i think you must be wrong. he said, 'just talk to the little man inside, he'll help you. he's your friend just like the police.'
that got me kinda scared.
but then he built me a rocket and i was fine.
damn fine post, if i do say so myself. i'll have fries with that.
------------------ Where the Hell's my roof?
it's a good day to die.
has anyone other than myself tried it? it was actually quite humorous, you see, when you start it up it all happens and then with the stuff. all i could say was 'wow'. then the game!! things going everywhere, vectors computing right under the hood, wave motion lasers!!!! talk about top of the morning!!
Tycho, you mad. Insanity your best friend.
Gamewise, it rocks. Though i think your insanity has given some people the wrong impression. Americans don't like crazies. That's why a republican is in power. originally it was a joke, but then somewhere along the line it got all mucked up Chinese Whispers Style and we're stuck with it.
But, I'd reccommend this game to everyone who's ever wanted network EVO.
Tested on G4s running 9.0.4
Alphabet Criminal Daughter of Leaps
What's wrong with insanity Alphabet? After all, you are talking to yourself. And have you taken a look at these boards recently? They're not about EVO anymore, they're about people pretending to be people who don't exist and then pretend that tapping on keys is the same as talking. Now I don't know about you, but the Webster Dictionary sure does classify that as being crazy pg 563.
Apart from that good work Tycho on the game. Lots of fun. Can we have more bullets? And maybe some needles
Salami Capable Nephew of Aleps
Imagine my relief when I discovered this topic wasn't yet another advocacy forum for Ambrosia making multiplayer Escape Velocity. Anyway, I can virtually guarantee you that any multiplayer EVO project in the works is not stolen from Ambrosia, unless it simply uses the original EVO engine and modifies it.
CPH

Slight problem with it. All that you can do on an iBook is thrust. Other than getting a USB keyboard any ideas on how to remedy?

chinese whispers style
heheh, you amerikans are a riot!!! just like seinfeld with all his 'did you ever notice' stuff. no wonder the shows still going.
alright then, insanity ends here or maybe here. no this time here. over there? yeah, that looks like a nice shady spot.
more bullets?!?!!??! you mad!!!!! crazy talk like that will end up with you getting shot!! yeah, high skool style. ha!
how do you mean more bullets? as in a long distance thing? and needles!!!! sky of needles!!!! definitely. there was just a two player version on one computer style thing that had needles. they were great. spoosh, spoosh they'd go! much fun was had by all. spoosh, spoosh.
and then i said to strafer, i said:'wouldn't it be funny if clouds were made of anvils?!!?' and he was all like, 'yeah, then we'd have hell to pay for!!!' and i'm like 'hahahah, look at me! i'm an anvil cloud!' and i ran around the room looking for an exit. then the sky of needles!!
and because we're all just insane people believing we're space captains having dogfights with renegades and delivering goods, i hyperjumped outta there into the ambrosia offices. it's like a mad house in there, there's like stuff with little yellow stickers on and desks and stuff. blew my mind it did. that's when i loaded the evo source onto my floppy disk.
and that's when this guy who made the game jumped me from behind and stole the thing. i believe he left via the fire escape but i let off a few needles into the opposite wall just incase.
next post i'll start making fun of americans.
Well since Brits are insane look what happens when they send convicts away to Australia. And I say their insane because of the show Monty Pythons Flying Circus.
Tycho, you've been hanging around Necro again, haven't you? I remember Necro's last stoned ramblings -- "Big it upp! Massive! :mad: <= Andrew welch wehn he ses this hehehee" or something to that effect. You're not there yet, but you're getting there.

Monty Python insane?
Hah, you need to get more Aunty Jack, D-Gen and the naked Vicar Show. Speaking of which? Can the spaceships have giant boxing gloves coming out instead of needles? And then they retract?
And space is a sort of greeny colour, maybe a colour change is in order.
haha! retractable boxing gloves!!!! done.
and space is a little green. can photoshop 6 change colour levels in the real world? if so, i'll change the colour of clouds to an off-mauve.
And can we have coriander alien death clouds. It's been along time since the last game with coriander alien death clouds. Far too long.....
Coriander alien death clouds are good. Especially when you're stoned to the gills.
Stoned?
i think the correct term is trans-d-ing.
the latest version is almost ready for consumption. new features include: -hidden run time methods that email your os9 keychains, web browsers cookies, firewall passwords and internet access settings.
-downloads all known mac viruses and dynamically installs them right into your very own system file.
-destroys zero sector partitions on every disk you've ever thought about.
-changes screen resolutions 2400 times per second, hopefully causing irrepairable damage.
-real coriander death clouds, guarenteed to kill within 2 minutes of exposure.(later versions will be faster acting and contagious and self replicating.)
keep listening for further updates
