As far as I remember, I never made a topic to intruduce myself, just randomly started posting one day, or if I did, I'm sure it was very antiinformative. =D  So, I figured now that hopefully I'll be able to actually do things in the community this semester, with all the newer people around since I used to post an average amount, I might as well take advantage of this opportunity to say "HAI!!!!!!!!!". (Wow, I am so cunfussing... How about, I'm an older member who's been inactive for a while and wanted to take the opportunity of being more active to say a lot more about himself.  Yeah, that makes a bit more sense. =P)

So hi, I'm CoolioJazz, also CoolioJazzines or CoolioJazzSkills, because some sites don't like just "CoolioJazz". D= My name is Ricky Talbot, and live somewhere between Netham45 and SirCmpwn (Theoretically, it's right by TsukasaZX, but if anyone ever gets a definitive location on him... Well, I haven't =P)  I came here around spring two years ago after seeing on TICalc.org that there was some sort of contest going on and I wanted to pit my skills (Hah! What a joke XD) against people here.  Yeah, let's just say after hovering a while, I decided I best wait this one out.  But, the competition did it's job of recruiting, and I stuck around after the fact, seeing how nice the people were.  I wasn't, of course, this being my first online sortie, but that was fixed after a couple day ban that summer. Mebe... =\ Anyways, I was made staff here sometime toward the end of summer, I think, and that lasted only till that Januray, I think.  The spontaneity of my posting, and a couple other things, just didn't fit the bill.  Oh well, what can you say, I'm an irresponsible teenager. XD Most of the last year, though, the only places you can find me is idling on IRC.  Wow, ok, I think this is getting longer than I intended... Umm... Moving on...  Overall, I've always been one just to post around and not boast many projects.  My main one I've ever had (TFE) never gained much attention, and for now is discontinued. (Tokens by now is much better anyways =D)  I made a nice little tibasic Go program, which only an outdated version found itself onto ticalc.  I should probably update that someday just for the heck of it. =PI did a couple random things of no importance, a simple axe shell, html viewer, and falldown type game, but all my larger projects have never completed. D= D= D=  I would list them here... but some of them are things people actually might find interesting, and I wouldn't want to give out some false hopes. =(  Yeah, for now, if you start seeing me around a bit more, I won't have anything new in towprobably.  Ooh, languages!!! I know TI-Basic and Axe pretty well, I tried asm... yeah, I'm another one of "those" failures.  Maybe someday... x.x  I've known VB for a while, but I've recently picked up java, which is a lot of fun.  C?... Umm, no.  EOL. Period.  Ok, let's see... Is there anything else...?  Oh yes, it may be less known then Netham45 being a lobster or Iambian being a cherry-flavored dragon, but... supposedly I'm apparently a squirrel.  Though it beats me where people get these crazy ideas. =P  Yeah, this was a lot longer than it needed to be... Oh well, I had fun writing it!  BUT WAIT!  THERE'S MORE!  I accidentally got myself addicted to Minecraft because it is a really awesome game!  And webcomics are awesome!! Especially Homestuck, it's really awesome!  Did you know, there was once an incentive to start an Omnimaga webcomic?  I keep trying to reive the topic, but it seems no one else wants to... Sigh...  This is never going to end, is it?  I'm just going to cut myself off I guess.  I can always sneak more into replies later =D  And I did NOT wrote this at 1:30 on the Sunday before school starts when I should be sleeping, you people are crazy!!!!!!!!!!!!! XD Ok, yeah, I'm definately stopping now.  Maybe...  No, I can't bring myself to do it!  Come on, just move the mouse, there you go, closing in on that post button, and *Cli-

EDIT: I'm gonna write some sort of summary later.  Because I've heard that walls of text can be intimidatating XD

Well, you normally just start in grassy biomes, and snowy biomes aren't normally that big.  Just keep exploring I guess =P

Nah, snow has always been part of the game, although it's only been in every world since biomes were added in the Halloween update.

If you still need the tokenizer thing... you could use regex ;)
Code: ("Java!") [Select]
Pattern Splitter = Pattern.compile("(\"[^\"]*\"|[^\"][\\S]*)\\S?");
Matcher m;
int end = -1;
int x = 0;
String[] args = new String[100]; //Or whatever you think the max amount of arguments might be
while (end + 1 < msg.length()) {
    (m = Splitter.matcher(msg)).find(end + 1);
    end = m.end();
    args[x] = m.group();
    x++;
}

Hi! /wave at the seemingly highly experienced programmer, then demand MOAR GMAES ALRADY!
JK =P Have you made anything yet though?  If not... We can wait for greatness =D  Hmm, peanuts, peanuts, peanuts...  I know I had some bag that was more that half full around here somewhere...

*cough beta server?* Well, it depends, because there's the rpg aspect to it, and the sandbox aspect... Maybe one of both? =P

Diamond + regular @ fourth (+- circle) = false harmonic; (Diamond/regular) + circle @ octave of string = natural harmonic

« on: December 20, 2010, 03:49:06 pm »
Hmm, diamond?... Normally they are written as circles...  Or a diamond shaped note when playing false harmonics to denote which is the harmonic...  And not just perfect fourths, also string octaves =P (Also, are you writing both notes in the false harmonics?)

Are you asking how it should sound different, or how to make it sound different in finale?

TI-BASIC / Re: How does this line of code work?

Well, first of all, that pause line should not have changed Ans, second... since when does ranint take three arguments? O_o

Ahh, right, passing a list would do it.  And actually, its not that only the first element matters... try {2,5} vs {2,4} to see what I mean

I love this game!!!! It has like, absorbed my life.  I am now dedicated to all things mc. :P Not really, but I do like it a lot, and have made a nifty smp server mod call NomCraft and host a server @ withg.us.to, although its been down a lot the last week, as the more recent updates have been breaking things w/the server mod x.x

You could also use the code I do for my basic editor (modified slightly to be more generic =P)
Code: [Select]

        Dim FileBytes(1048576) As Byte
        Dim FileBytesCounter1 As Integer = (How many bytes you want to write.  If you set file bytes to just the data you have, just set it to FileBytes.length() =P)

        Dim FileName As String = (Whateverer you want the variable name to be.  Not the actual file name. This could be eg. "MYPROG")
        '**TI83F*

        Next
        'Data Size
        If FileBytesCounter1 + 19 > 255 Then
