I've been working on an SR4 dice roller app in Cocoa in my spare time lately. I've got the basics in place at the moment, but am rewriting the code to clean it up and what not. However, if you're interested in seeing it so far let me know. -- Adam Brown co...@di... |

Hey guys. I have a darcs repository set up at: http://sade.emperorlinux.com/~jesse/repos/xsrcg It's got the code I've been working on as well as the oldcode that I worked on. Just grab darcs if you don't have it. Here's the homepage: http://abridgegame.org/darcs/ all you have to do to get the repository is, darcs get http://sade.emperorlinux.com/~jess/repos/xsrcg If you make any changes darcs record -all, darcs send will send me a patch via email and i can apply it and push it back upstream =) I'll try to jump on dumpshock tomorrow and see how you guys are doin. -- jesse > > On May 27, 2005, at 2:07 PM, Jesse Wattenbarger wrote: >> >> Adam, >> did we move from freenode to dumpshock? i didn't even know >> dumpshock had >> an irc server =). i'll start idling there while at work. i've been >> out >> of it lately, too. i'm working now, and half-way looking for >> another one. >> i'll be moving soon, too. >> >> i'll set up a repository as soon as i move, though. i'm thinking of >> using >> darcs as a versioning repository over svn, however i'd make that >> decision >> based on binary files. svn handles binary files well, but darcs is >> great >> for source code and patches. i really like it. >> >> been hacking a little python here and there when i get a chance. >> i'd like >> to show you guys the bit of test code i have so far. i think if we >> could >> get together and discuss stuff, it would bring a lot of ideas >> together and >> solidify some design stuff. >> >> Talk to you guys soon. >> >> --omie >> > > Ahh, freenode, that's where we were before.

Adam, did we move from freenode to dumpshock? i didn't even know dumpshock had an irc server =). i'll start idling there while at work. i've been out of it lately, too. i'm working now, and half-way looking for another one. i'll be moving soon, too. i'll set up a repository as soon as i move, though. i'm thinking of using darcs as a versioning repository over svn, however i'd make that decision based on binary files. svn handles binary files well, but darcs is great for source code and patches. i really like it. been hacking a little python here and there when i get a chance. i'd like to show you guys the bit of test code i have so far. i think if we could get together and discuss stuff, it would bring a lot of ideas together and solidify some design stuff. Talk to you guys soon. --omie |

I do think going for an SR4 based program is the way to go at this point. I'll probably play SR4 regardless of the changes they make, it may just take some time to get used to them. I've been playing around at some stuff, and I actually just got Tiger installed (better late than never). As for irc, I've taken the initiative of idling on irc.dumpshock.com in #xsrcg. I haven't been on the computer as much lately due to preparations on moving into a new house next week, but during the work day and later in the evenings (US Central time) I'm usually around. As for the SQLite framework I was playing around with, it has some quirks to it that I'm not happy with, so I don't think it's something we want to use. -- Adam Brown co...@di... |

Still interested as well. I'm currently playtesting SR4, and
I... Well, I'm not allowed to tell you much about it, actually. However:
- The new system has a sane, if WoD-ish, base. It's got bugs and
imbalances, though, but that's what we playtesters are for.
- The new character generation system looks good so far.
- It should be relatively easy to implement (well, much easier than
SR3 anyway).
- It is, however, very different from SR3. Upgrading a SR3 program to
SR4 will probably be as difficult as starting from scratch.
- Therefore, if we are to implement a SR4 character generator, we
shouldn't bother with creating a SR3 one beforehand.
I, for one, still am interested in creating a Shadowrun
character generator. But I must admit that while the new rules system
doesn't look bad, the one reason why I've been playing Shadowrun all
this time is the setting. I don't care about the rules as long as the
setting is good.
Therefore, whether or not I keep playing SR will be determined
by the modifications they to the Shadowrun setting in the 2065-2070
gap. Which I currently don't know a single thing about, other than
the publicly available info (FAQs and stuff).
I'm a little bit afraid about that (especially since I didn't
really like the direction SR3 had been going in lately). On the other
hand, I'm always interesting in coding some fun stuff, so at least
until SR4 is released and turns out to be shit, you can count me in. ^^
Where, and at what times do you guys usually hang around on IRC
nowadays?

I was looking at some of my xsrcg code and notes the other day. I'm still really interested in doing this. Especially now that SR4 is coming out =). We should try to meet up on IRC sometime soon and discuss some plans and the direction of the project. -- omie > Mostly with regard to a GUI.

Mostly with regard to a GUI. Although I've also found an SQLite framework that will let us do SQLite easily in both Cocoa and GNUStep. I haven't had a lot of time to concentrate on coding. It sucks how busy life can be sometimes, but I have been trying to do what I can here and there as far as things go. The amount of stuff I have hasn't warranted me putting up on the SourceForge CVS server, but if either of you want to take a look at it, I can do that or just attach a project tarball to an email.

The default Mac OS X "distribution" includes Python 2.3 (that's OS X 10.3 -- I'm not sure about earlier versions, and I suppose OS X 10.4 will include Python 2.4), and the language is installed on most Linux machines.

Well, I've certainly been out of action for awhile now. So, I just thought I'd check in finally. About the only issue with python I can think of off-hand would be the need to require a python interpreter be installed on the system. That might be a bit cumbersome, a little VisualBasic-esque. But, I certainly don't have a problem using Python. In fact, it might make for a very easy cross-platform choice for a back-end. Jesse, how's the SVN server? Also, if you want some assistance with the lib you might post up some info on it and what you need done. -- Adam Brown co...@di... |

I'll have a look at what you did tomorrow (right now I have a coursework assignment to complete, due tomorrow morning ;) ). Meanwhile, here's what I coded. It's not pretty, but it converts EDGE.DAT to XML just fine (although the XML specs are subject to change). The ILNode class can be reused to create other types of XML-based item lists. -- Max maxnoel_fr at yahoo dot fr -- ICQ #85274019 "Look at you hacker...

Great! Well, I'm going to set up a public subversion repository for the project. I'll give you and Adam comit perms on it. Sorry that the previous libsrcg svn was private, Adam. I had it in the same directory as a private game that a friend of mine is working on (which I periodically code for). All I've coded so far are a few classes for the "main" stuff. Like I wrote an AttrMod class this morning. I also wrote an elf.py that takes advantage of the class. I'm fairly new to python as I just picked it up the other night. I'm using the online book, www.diveintopython.org. It is what really helped me fall in love with the language. I've attached my elf.py and attr_mod.py to this email just for fun and comments. I'll get the svn repository up today, though so that all my code is visible and so that Max can upload his code. Let me know what you guys think. If you can't tell by the files, I'm aiming to make it *very* modular. races can be added simply by creating a race.py file and loading it.

That's kinda funny, because I've started learning Python as well, and the more I learn, the more I feel like it would be perfect for that project too.

Hey guys, I'm not sure what you guys have been doing witht he project. I do have something of an announcement to make, though. I've written a bit of C code for the project, as well as all the autoconf files. There's some base code, and a bit of xml parsing code. However, I have recently decided to make a huge change. Instead of writing the lib in C, I have decided that python would better serve my (our?) purposes. Here's my reasoning: Python offers pretty much every thing we wanted to begin with. We can use XML parser libs and sqlite (among other things). It also gives us a little more freedom and opportunities. For example, I considered using dynamic modules for the different creation systems. Since python is interpreted, we can have different python modules that are already dynamic simply by being in different files or objects. Python also offers really nice OOP with some interesting abilities. Python is pretty terse and simple. It's almost like writing pseudo code. It works on every desktop computing platform with (most likely) no changes to the source: Mac OS X, Windows, Linux, *BSD, countless other implementations. I'm still learning python, but I've already started to work on the new srcg. It will still be something like a lib. I'm abstracting rules and every thing away from a GUI. However, I am also writing a GUI component in pygtk as a reference/example/full client. I need to know if this is moving away from your visions or if it is in line with what you guys want. If it is moving too far away, I do not mind branching off into a new project. If not, I'd be delighted to stay aboard. And in either case, I hope that we can still swap information, ideas, and code. You guys can have all the previous C code I wrote if you'd like. It's nothing great or fancy. I'll be on IRC when I can. I have recently graduated, but I have not found a CS job yet. I'm currently working night audit at a hotel. I'd probably be more likely to see Max online than Adam at my current hours =). So now you know where I'm going, and that I'm certaintly not done with this project, nor have I given up, nor is this notice of me leaving this particular project. I'd just like to know what you guys think, if you're willing to go in the same direction, and even if you aren't: can you use me in some capacity for the direction you would like to go? Thanks guys.

Just wondering what the status here is. It seems like we've all been pretty busy lately and it might be time to regroup and see what we're looking at again. Let's try and keep the ball rolling... -- Adam Brown co...@di... |

Pasted below is the first draft of the SQLite dump of the rpgcharacter
portion of the XML data. After going through I know we're going to need
to clean it up a bit, and I'd probably suggest that instead of having
the seperate attribute table we bring it in with the main character
table, even though that'll make the main character table pretty large
by itself since it'll need to have a ton of instances of the attribute
table, but it might be better to do it that way.
Anyways, if you look through here and see anything jump out at you or
whatever let me know. I haven't bothered to test it with SQLite yet, so
it may not even work properly at this stage. It's more a proof of
concept.
Once I get the rest of the stuff added I'll dump into SQLite and see
how it works. I'll also probably work up a graphical chart showing all
the relations to make grasping everything easier.
So, without further ado...

I think it would be a good idea if we could all three find a time in the next week or so that we could all meet up on IRC for at least an hour or so. Max, I realize your time zone difference is difficult, so I think Jesse and I should try to work around your availability as much as possible. We all three really need to get together and get a few things set down so some of the groundwork can start to roll. Let's try and make it happen! -- Adam Brown co...@di... |

Well, again Jesse and I got a chance to go over our respective thoughts on the design of the program again after awhile to put things in perspective a little. I'm leaning heavily towards wanting a very capable Cocoa/GNUStep Framework to work from in the Mac environment as well as in the GNUStep environment. I still thinking keeping the library in place is good, but I think if there's a good Cocoa Framework wrapper for it then that will solve a lot of issues. Any Cocoa application will just use the Framework and not even care about anything else basically. The Framework will have all the classes and methods needed for interfacing with the cross-platform library and as far as Cocoa development goes, the Framework will BE the library. I think doing this gives us a lot of leeway on how to approach the library, but not sacrificing the Obj-C/Cocoa nature of the Mac/GNUStep stuff. We've also looked into SQLite a little more, and it seems to be just what we need for data storage. It'll use an SQL database built-in to the library to keep the data in, and it'll keep us from storing more than one copy of a gun or any other item, until it gets exported as XML data. SQLite provides easy function calls for read/writes so it shouldn't be terribly complex to implement. Plus, there's Cocoa wrappers that exist for SQLite functions, so everything in the Framework can appear even more seamless in that respect. I'm going to start converting the XML schema into a database schema and layout the database for file storage. Once that's in place we can fill it with data and work on some XML import/export stuff and get the low level file stuff out the way and in place to build on. I'll leave it at that for now. -- Adam Brown co...@di... |
