Some people are impervious to progress, it seems. | :::::::::3.5 "'''doing things the "hard way" actually enables more creativity'''" Crap, did I call this one, or what, geyser?

::::::::::Sorry, spoke too soon. ZDLO just cut-and-pasted (there it is again!) the code geyser wrote for entering flag numbers. My answer to your question, then, Gumby, as to how I'd design the flag browser was still already answered up top. Let me... cut and paste it! '''an OniMenu-type script that actually lists a level's flags with descriptions of their locations in the level? You could drill down the menus, maybe starting with choosing what level's flags to look at if there's no way to find out the current level through BSL, then in a submenu choose the area of the level to go to, then choose the specific spot. In other words, scriptifying ZDLO's flag tables.''' | |||

:::::::::P.S.: Mac users are in an inferior modding situation because we can't use every program (OUP, OniBrowser e.g.) that you can. That doesn't mean that Mac users should be expected to do all their Oni work in Windows. But ultimately, why are we having this conversation? Gumby, any GUI that someone wrote for Windows would have to be written by someone else for the Mac, right? So this discussion does not entail any work on your part. Really, at this point, it would fall to Ed (who is already doing related work) and myself to do something nice for Mac users. And perhaps that's just as well, if we're the only ones who appreciate GUIs. I can guarantee that the other Mac users would lap our work up eagerly and modding on our side would outpace the Windows side. For the time being, of course, I can only talk about it because I won't have the time to act until a couple other Oni projects are done. --[[User:Iritscen|Iritscen]] 22:13, 25 August 2008 (CEST) | :::::::::P.S.: Mac users are in an inferior modding situation because we can't use every program (OUP, OniBrowser e.g.) that you can.
