Update:

Good: I have a second track and the engine's much faster

Bad: Sorry, but 15mHz only. I have to use full for the timer interrupt to function properly and for the game to be smooth.

I'll post screenies as soon as I can!

That said, in the Koran, it DOES endorse a holy war, or Jihad, but this has already happened, as in the Crusades.

I'm not going to get into this discussion, just a quick remark about the statement above: "Jihad" does not mean "holy war", even if that's what most western mainstream media as well as some deranged clerics from the Muslim world want you to believe. The word actually translates as "effort". In Qur'an it refers to the fact that Muslims should work hard to make a better person out of themselves.

Okay, then I was wrong, and so was my AP World textbook (*sigh*).

All I mean to say is: It is rather cool to study religions from the outside, trying to get as little bias as possible. As was my point with Muslims!=terrorists, although the "American" bias says otherwise.

The base engine's almost done, because of the simplicity of the game. All I need now is to do some hardcore track design. :D

I forgot to mention: It will just be a time trial type racing game. Simple==best, right? ;D

Well, I don't hate Muslims, but Islam has violent precepts at it's core. The reason why it's progressing so fast is because of that : Islam encourages the use of violence to spread itself. BTW if you look at terrorists then most of them are Islam fanatics.
Another thing is how they treat women. They consider that women are inferior to men and are here only for sex, reproduction and home tasks. While I don't consider women nor anybody else equal to me (we are all different and one of a kind), I believe that no hierarchy exists between human beings.
Another thing : the Hamas's slogan (one of many pro islamisation groups) is "We love death more than you love life". I think this is pretty much self explanatory.
One last thing : there are only a couple Nobel prices won by muslims. So the proportion of intelligent people adept of this religion is ridiculously low.

First of all: no. the Koran does not have any of that stuff, it's the Sharia (or a version thereof), but it's not what you think...

The Sharia is supposedly a book of Mohammad quotes, and in some sects (and countries), it is followed as law. The book contains quotes and who said that quote to whom before it was written down. The fewer people in that chain, the stronger and more reliable it is. The "killing non-Muslims" thing has A LOT of people in its chain.

That said, in the Koran, it DOES endorse a holy war, or Jihad, but this has already happened, as in the Crusades.

So, in AP World, we're discussing religions, and currently, Islam.

sooo... yeah, I hate being in the US because everybody in the class (except me, my teacher, and a few others) thinks that Muslim==Terrorist, but it's just not true.

First of all, at its core, the Koran, Islam is more tolerant of other religions than Judaism or Christianity, and believes that the Torah and the Bible are the word of god, as well as the Koran (they believe Jesus is a prophet, though). Does it follow Judaism or Christianity? No, but it does believe that they hold some truth. Also: Judaism, Christianity, and Islam were all started by descendants of Abraham, all believe in the same god (under different names) and all are based in the Middle East. Also also: Islam is the fastest growing and second largest religion in the world today. Why is that? Because, at its core, like almost all religions, it values helping others (you are supposed to donate at least 2.5% of your income to charity to help others). IT IS GOOD AS A RELIGION (still don't believe in any religions, but just saying that Islam is no better or worse than any others).

Now to address the whole "terrorists" stereotype: THERE ARE CHRISTIAN TERRORISTS TOO. We just don't hear about them in the US, or in most other predominately-christian countries. And the percentage of terrorist Muslims in relation to normal Muslims is extremely small, and is almost exactly the same percentage of terrorists in the world. What does this mean? Higher population of people in religion=more nut jobs, just because there are more people in said religion.

Interesting Fact: the biggest religious coexistence in the world is Turkey, where there is a 50/50 Muslim/Christian split, and THEY GET ALONG.

So... rant over. Don't hate on Muslims, okay?

Axe / Re: GDB's
« on: September 26, 2013, 12:23:58 pm »
I see the problem in the code:

GDBs are pointers

Pointers must be the same size as the number of bytes that you want to modify/be in it because if you overextend the writing, you write to the next bytes, or in this case, the first byte of GDB2.

The fix:

[0000]->GDB1
[0000]->GDB2


EDIT: :ninja: 'd

I know this is a day late, but: OMG YES!!!!!

Sad thing my computer died (both Windows and Ubuntu won't boot, doing system recovery now) yesterday, or I would have known already.

On that note: I must say that I'm glad I started working on my new game today before I knew about this contest.
