I don't see any of those things being concievably realistic or all that called for. Converting things from one format to another, especially when different inputs are required, (e.g. wiimote accelerometers) is a very difficult task and I doubt many people would like the idea of trying.

EDIT: besides, if you go to he page without the other link, you get this: http://dav2.webs.com/

That aprilfools bit doesn't matter, the guy was just hosting pictures, i was just wondering what other people thought.
What about the convert to Exe file though? (I really like the Xml extension thought)

problems so far: No presentation mode option... can I nab something from the normal scratch file to get that to work?

key P recognised as f1 in the (key pressed) reporter
R = f3
S = f4
T - Z = F5 F11

I tried to open Panther1.0.image with the (content of file [ ]) block and froze Panther. (I was doing this because I was worried that once someone clicked "always allow" to a project, there was a change that someone could have a timed script or something in an unnoticed part of the project that could use the write or clear blocks to actually disable a file nesesscary for Panther's wellbeing.

Sorry..... it's not perfect. I didn't know about the keys, but half of these problems are caused by me not being capable of/taking the time to put ScratchPlugin in. I'm sorry, I will now look at the Scratch files and figure out how to do it.

BTW you messed up on the second tutorial project. You forgot 'make count' and 'delete count' and you used the old reporters (the bad ones) instead of the dropdown ones (the old ones won't work on variables that are created in the code.) I got the beeping on loading some projects, but not all.

I just realized that the make/delete blocks like to be obselete ones... I need to fix the 'variables' specs category. The Scratch team kind of messed them up (they did the right thing with the lists.)

sorry? I don't understand what you mean? hmm ... well I'll take that second one off then, but I have a cloning example you might like to look at.

*_* woah! major changes to site there! I like it, I'll add some navigation things too so it's easier to browse.

K, I'll look if it's there...

Nice. Sadly, *sobs* the cloning doesn't work in presentation mode.

AHA! I fixed all the problems by stuffing some dll's from Scratch into the Panther folder!

That was me. The site I mean...

sparks · 2010-04-05 17:19:58

well it looks nice, I was thinking that it would be nice if Pantherers (dosen't really roll of the tongue like Scratcher does it) could upload and share files on our site too, The only way I can think of doing it is emailing it to the site's email (purplesparks@ymail.com) and getting me to upload it as a file. That's fine if a small number of people use it, but as it's email, it poses a small risk to my computer and would take me a lot of time if we get a lot of uploaders. Any suggestions?

SeptimusHeap · 2010-04-05 17:22:12

Hmmm... MathWizz might be able to help...

How about Panthers instead of Pantherers?

I despise file inputs and never got them to work properly, but if Weebly can handle PHP, I'm fairly adequate at it and I can make a nice upload/download/comment thingy.

SeptimusHeap · 2010-04-05 17:25:07

Yes, yes nXIII, please do! PLEASE!!!

sparks · 2010-04-05 17:25:51

sounds like a plan! of course, if MathWizz can get the java player to work, so much the better! Weebly definetly takes the player, but I've only ever embeded it from the Scratch site so I don't know how well that will work. Else we might have to switch to a different site, I use weebly for ease of use (or pay for the weebly site to increase what we can do with it.)

SeptimusHeap · 2010-04-05 17:30:05

Did you update the Panther download?

I'm going to ask to download it in a sec.

nXIII · 2010-04-05 17:34:43

I gots lots of homework, bye

0_0 Yikes! I'm still working on the moving variables!!! The syntax is just plain weird...
This is the glide block:

Code:

to glideSecs:toX:y:elapsed:from: :secs :dstX :dstY
    if thread-end-msecs = [] [
        set-thread-end-msecs %timer + (1000 * :secs)
        set-thread-tmp (se xpos ypos :dstX :dstY (1000 * :secs) %timer)        ; record start and end position
        yield stop]
    let [
        startX (item 1 thread-tmp)
        startY (item 2 thread-tmp)
        endX (item 3 thread-tmp)
        endY (item 4 thread-tmp)
        totalDur (item 5 thread-tmp)
        frac (%timer - (item 6 thread-tmp)) / :totalDur]
    if %timer < thread-end-msecs [
        gotoX:y:
            (:startX + (:frac * (:endX - :startX)))
            (:startY + (:frac * (:endY - :startY)))
        yield stop]
    gotoX:y: :endX :endY
    set-thread-tmp []
    set-thread-end-msecs []
end

sparks · 2010-04-05 17:44:55

... ouch... at least there are no *shudders* curly brackets!

sparks · 2010-04-05 17:46:00

Mathwizz, did you manage to download a copy of Panther?

oh, and the email I gave above was typed wrong, so don't expect me to reply big_smile

sparks · 2010-04-05 17:50:51

nXIII, can the no cloning in presentation be solved?

sparks · 2010-04-05 17:52:22

going to bed now. 11:00 in England -__- tired.

If you think a more advanced site is needed, I think http://50webs.com/ has more features. But I don't know if it is as easy as drag and drop.

Can you make the download not password protected? I want to try panther.
