Python2 and Python3 are brothers. Python2 is the older brother, and Python3 is the younger brother. A few years back, Python3 announced that he did not want to work on the farm, he wanted to go to college and get a degree. Python2 was dismayed that his little brother wanted to leave the farm, and he...

Meowskivich: was there any error message? or did it just close quietly?

I have made some changes and fixes, so if you have a chance could you please re-download and test again? If it still crashes, and there is an error message, can you take a screenshot of it?

You can use Audacity to open up the ogg files and adjust the tempo and delete any large looping gaps at the end

Okay... Crack this MD5 one-way hash password: 4397f32366e0acf4913d1c9986134762 :p If you are unable to reverse it into a clear-text password, then it works the way it should. To confirm the user typed in the correct password, the password to be verified is hashed, and both hashes are compared. The ...

This is actually easier to do without scripting. First go into the menu editor Then pick "Edit Items..." Now choose the menu item that should only appear if a tag is on Now look for the first line that says "Enable if tag 0=ON (Always)" and change the tag number Then go into &quo...

I am not an expert on this, but I believe that when you use a soundfont to play/convert a song, you do not need any special permissions to distribute the song. It is your song. But if you want to distribute the soundfont file itself, then you need permissions from whoever owns the copyright on the s...

Any way you could add an option in OHR to convert MIDIs to OGGs, much like it already does for MP3s to avoid the licensing fees? That would be a cool feature, but unfortunately I have never found a good soundfont that is free for us to redistribute together with the OHRRPGCE. The free one that come...

I really like where you are going with that chapter. it is looking good! I suggest removing "Chapter 2" from the article title. Even if it is the second article, it should still only be labled chapter 2 next to the link on the HOWTO page, not in the title of the article itself. There is al...

I've no idea where to begin with Kivy. Were you able to to follow the Pong Game Tutorial? http://kivy.org/docs/tutorials/pong.html If not, it would be best to back up and start with the python tutorial http://docs.python.org/2/tutorial/ The python tutorial is long, but if you are patient and work t...

I think you should switch to ogg. I have been meaning to do the same for myself for Wandering Hamster. I bet there are better converters available. Personally, I use timidity on Linux-- it doesn't do a great job by default, but it lets you load your own soundfont, and then it sounds wonderful. A goo...

Although a python function to check a game's password is perfectly possible (and nohrio might already do it) passwords are *very* easy to crack, so knowing it is not sufficient proof of game-authorship. Shhh. -- I thought the password used a one way hash of some sort. This is true! ... but even as ...

I downloaded the developer's kit, I'm giving it a look over right now, I just wonder if OUYA could run Kivy or Pygame. It can indeed! I have already run Bob the Hamster Dirt Dig on it, and that is written in python+kivy. I still have to figure out how to make it show up in the games menu with the p...

What the hell is a pilotwings? Pilotwings is the second SNES game I ever owned, right after Super Mario World. It was better than Flying Car in almost every way :) Definitely worth a play if you can find it. I believe it is available on the Wii virtual console. There was also a Nintendo 64 sequel. ...
