So, what was all that?

It looks like we've lost a few recent posts, including my huge post on using the Bash shell :(

What was all that about? Was it God's vengeance for using PHP?

(Yes, I realize there are many threads on this. Just thought I'd post this one to say: First post in the revived web site!)

Not quite sure yet, something appears to have changed with our php install which mucked up part of the posts script. Sorry for the inconvenience.

What happened to my post in Blitz3D Beginner's Area? It was titled Slow Motion. I asked GfK a question and I didn't get to see the reply if there was one.

Panic over - my chess game thread survived.

Having said that - it is clear that some peoples' posts are not yet appearing. Not everyone appears to be up and running.

So no hack or attack on the site?

P.S. And I was hoping for the new bmx release... oh boy, dream on... ;)

I wouldn't say that:

Gfk did reply, he basically said

When you're moving an object for example,

MoveEntity sphere, 1,0,0

should be replaced with

Global movesphere=1 : MoveEntity sphere,movesphere,0,0

And if you want slo-mo, make movesphere equal to 0.5.

And that is basically what Gfk posted.

Uh... wrong. He said:

;rate#=1
rate#=0.5 ;slow mo rate
X#=X#+Xspeed# * rate#

But I meant after that. I asked if it would be okay if I used that code then the forums went whacky.

hmmm...
My version of his post was better :P It said more detail hahaha
