Looking to buy rpgtoolkit powerhouse edition from someone...
email me at karmakat@karmakat.ca
-
why dont you buy one from CBM?
-
Didn't he stop selling them?
-
Yes, he has. Others have tried contacting him about still being able to buy it, and he has told them he will not sell any more copies. I personally would continue selling as much as I could, but I think he doesn't want to because he's pretty much done with the TK, and he doesn't want to feel pressured to having to provide any kind of support. All companies do this with their old software. It's not as if Microsoft still sells copies of Windows95...though I think you "might" be able to get copies of Win98SE still...though why, I don't know.
-
Easy. Windows 98 is faaaar better than XP. Or simply on my computer, Windows 98 begins screwing up after 4-5 hours of work (restart and it's okay until next 4-5 hours), maybe it's some virus. XP doesn't work almost completely. You press a key and have to restart. And it loads for about 5 minutes before it runs. Dunno why.
I do not support imperialism of Bill G8s and thus won't get any other windows Laughing

It's your computer, not the OS. You could probably use a good reformat. Also, WinXP Home is crap compared to XP Pro. Anyone I've ever heard having problems with WinXP were always using XP Home. I've installed XP Pro on more than 10 comps, no problems yet with any of them that wasn't caused by a hardware glitch or something. Only time my comp crashes is when I overclock too much. Plus, if your having serious problems with both 98SE and XP, its obviously the computer.
-
I generally have strange things with my computers. Like I experienced fraction bug on previous PC, so I got new Pentium (3 or 4, I already forgot Wink) and bah, bug again.
Simply everything is screwing up on my computer, yet it's still better compared to a previous.
And I'm used to windows 95/98 because I used it for a few years. You see, XP in Poland is shun like a plague. Never heard of school where they work on XP. I'm glad we've finally ended using DOS at school (good old times with black screen and white text).
-
Please sell me your copy of rpgtoolkit powerhouse....
we NEED it for our project...
we just applied for a large arts grant and need the functionality of it...
plz help

Selling would mean the one who bought tk powerhouse - and propably needs it - will lose it without ability to re-gain it. Otherwise, this would be piracy
(to which I can get used, in Poland everyone knows what "Stadium of Decade" is and what you can get there - from CDs to weapons - and of course police doesn't do anything about it as the poor constables won't have a place to buy stuff, not to mention it's usually police which confiscates pirate CDs and then sells 'em)
Tough luck - I don't have tk powerhouse.
-
mwa ha ha!! i think im the last person he sold it to!! ha ha ha!!

What's a fraction bug? You don't see XP in schools because it'd be too expensive to upgrade. Not sure about in poland, but I know a lot of schools run on Windows NT4 or 2000 anyways, and an XP upgrade wouldn't do a whole lot for stability, which is what schools tend to go for. Why your school is only using DOS is beyond me...that limits you to heavily outdated word processors, and no internet access.

Alexs, it's highly unlikely that anyone will sell you their copy of the TK unless you actually make an offer on how much you're willing to pay.
mwa ha ha!! i think im the last person he sold it to!! ha ha ha!!
Funny, I was the 2nd person he sold it to B) (I think Bracken was the first)
-
nooooooo!!!

What's a fraction bug?
Toolkit and any game done with it doesn't read fractions as numbers, and skips (opening up a debug window) every command using fraction, considering it as wrong.
-
I'd be willing to bet that everyone has that bug, despite how good their computer is or what their operating system was. It's a bug in the TK, not with your comp. Chris never wrote the RPGCode engine to handle fractions because honestly, until now, I couldn't think of a single person who would've tried using them. Most people would use decimals.
-
Hmm, Dark Age 2 or Blobs: Christmas Catastrophe use lots of fractions. I had to change 30% DA2 demo files to be able to play.
-
wow...ok, now that is weird...
-
Our school runs on Windows 2000, with the exception of the servers, which are Win 2003. Gurysh, our systems admin, installed XP on one of the comps, but I never learned his reasoning for downgrade, it probably was just due to the lack of features that made it worthwhile for upgrading, especially from 2000, furthermore, when you consider the school has about 200+ computers.
-
My school has windows 98.
If CBM has stoped working on TK then we are all....DOOMED! It's the end of the TK world as we know it!

Have you not heard of the TK Dev Project?

It did? :blink:

ROTFL Laughing
Yeah, Blob Dude, it did! In menu, mwin (these funny comic-esque clouds as blobs spoke, too bad I couldn't see what as text placement used fractions) and in delays during intro.

Well, he used decimals, not fractions. You keep using the word fractions to describe both of them. Your bug is a decimal bug, not a fraction bug.
-
Heh, sorry. English language is soooo strange. We have one word in Poland for both fractions and decimals, "ułamek". But I get what you mean, as "decimals" are specified as "dziesiętne ułamki" w polish, which would mean "decimal fractions" or something. Eeeh, nevermind.
At least I get what you mean! Then, it's a decimal bug. B)

Have you not heard of the TK Dev Project?
No I haven't. What's it all about???? :blink:
-
A group of people headed by Dan are developing their own open source version of TK3, which they will then submit to CBM for incorporation into the official release.
-
Really cool! *whew* I wouldn't want the TK comuinty to fall when I barely go into it.
