ZunTzu

I think I have pin pointed the problem; namely, I am not running a start up scenario; so my question now is about dummy scenarios. Would this notation work for the dummy scenario?: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252" ?> <game-box version="1.0" name="ZunTzu ...

Jerome has suggested that you do a differnt counter script per tile, and this works great; however, if you are savy with any paint program you can just cut and copy each tile into closer quarters and this will 1) cause your ztb file to be smaller because the jpg for you tiles will be more compacted ...

Happy holdays, we look forward to it.

Okay have the checkers done and don't know how to get the file to you Jerome; also I can not seem to get the programming portion of the board correct, so I was hoping if I could send you the ztb you could also look at why it isn't working. So here is a sample of my code: <?xml version="1.0"...

I would be interested to know this too; however, with the brevity of the game-box.xml code, comments may be obsolete; no?

That should do it huhh? Well this is reminescent of my CS 100 class in which I would spend 3 hours debugging my program just to realize I was missing a stupid semi-colon. Should of learned better.

Got it figured out, the reason was my zip program was creating a multi-layered zip file I.E. It created a folder in a folder. So got that worked out and have been playing around trying to make some game boards and just have a few questions. Questions 1) Making a game-box with only a map, nothing els...

Just been searching the French forum and I found that there is a new dice implementation! Looks Sweet, Jerome if you could tell the English forum a little about this it would be greatly appreciated.

Looks sweet!

Quick update of the status of this project: Have finished all the graphics for the checkers board and checkers pieces, looking real nice. I intended to post some graphics by today, but couldn't get the graphics on the internet today due to the fact that I don't get internet at my home and I didn't g...

That's a great idea!
And I'll be happy to host the game boxes on this web site.

That is what I was ultimatley hoping for, but I didn't want to be so bold as to assume Check back Monday for some examples of checkers, I think you, Jerome, will particularlly enjoy my first attempt.

C'est fantastique

Zun Tzu never ceases to amaze me!

I think this is a great idea to jump start the community. I'd already thought about making Pente (pretty much a Go set would do) or checkers. I'm not a graphic artist, so if you plan to do it, I won't bother Even if you don't do graphics all the help and input from you is appreciated. Let me post s...

I understand that it is nigh well impossible to get a true randomizer from a computer, and Zun Tzu's current shuffle algorithm is great! However when shuffling 2 cards I have noticed that there is absolutley no random element to it at all, the system merely switches the positions of the 1st card wit...

What tool are you using to zip the folder? Generic freeware zip program, has work for everything in the past but that may be the problem, what freeware zip program would you suggest? Make sure that no folder information is inserted into the archive. In other words, the content of the archive should...

I am still working on how to get my game-boxes working, but besdes my own lack of understanding Zun Tzu seems very straightforward and easy to use, so I am sure once I figure this Error F thing out games will be flying out of my computer. I enjoy and am prophecient at graphic arts, and want to make ...
