Hi Thomas,

Actually the opposite is true, my compiled executable files are always much 
larger than my source code files.  But that was not my point at all.  It is 
that some times the source code file compiles larger than other source code and 
vice versa.  Such as;

starmule frm 43,936 bytes
spanker  frm 70,513 bytes

spanker  exe163,840 bytes
STARMULE EXE237,568 bytes

Hi  Jim,

The things I mentioned such as line indentions etc were examples only
of the kinds of things that get stripped when compiling. As I said
when it gets converted from source to an executable all the words in
your source code regardless of its a variable name, function name, etc
is converted into ones and zeros and point to addresses only rather
than actual code. Not sure that I can explain it clearly, but
executable files will always be smaller than the original source
because the compiler only keeps what is necessary to pass the
instructions to the CPU.

[Audyssey] looking for SC soundpacks for mushclient

2012-02-20 Thread Mongwen
Popping out of lurkdom for two seconds. I am looking for a decent mushclient 
soundpack useable on Star Conquest.  For that matter, a modifyable Miriani 
one would do if I knew how to make the modifications.  I think the SC hosts 
have said in the past that soundpack discussion was disallowed, so I can't 
even ask on the boards in game.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Re: [Audyssey] Rem Statements

2012-02-20 Thread Thomas Ward
Hi Jim,

HI see what you mean. I wonder if perhaps when VB compiles
your executable files if it does statically link some libraries
resulting in the extra file size.

I know if I statically link some lib files, compile them directly into
the executable, naturally my exe file is larger because of the
statically linked libraries.

For instance, all of my games written in C++ statically link to a
library named g3d.lib. The g3d.lib library is my Genesis Engine.
Obviously, any games I write will be larger when compiled because the
lib gets compiled directly into the executable as well as the source.

I'm thinking VB probably has some default static libs it includes
automatically that might account for the extra file size. I'm not
sure, but that's my theory. :D

Cheers!

[Audyssey] western game

I'm in a mood to strike out in to new game genres and was wondering, a

Re: [Audyssey] western game

2012-02-20 Thread dark

Hi David.

The game westward can be found at 
http://www.apolitical.info/webgame/westward  this involves taking a train of 
wagons across america and is I believe similar at least in style and setting 
to the old origan traile game that's so often mentioned on list.


Then there is the mississippi game from Mardy software. this is a turn based 
economic stratogy where you buy and sell goods around the old west and 
eventually try to become president. It's mostly text based but has lots of 
music and sounds as well.


See http://audiogames.net/db.php?id=mississippi for more information.

I must confess I found mississippi a little disappointing as a single player 
game though it struck me as possibly more fun multiplayer, however sinse you 
could only have a multiplayer game at the same computer rather than across 
the internet this is a bit of a drawback.


Then there are several western interactive fiction games, seE 
http://www.wurb.com/if/genre/18 FOR A LIST.


Finally of course, there are those audio games with a western theme in 
usually an arcade setting, such as Esp pinball classic and pinball party 
pack Wild west tables, and grizly gulch from Bavisoft (though good luck 
acquiring that one.


Hth.

Beware the grue!

HI,

The saved games are in a folder called saved games. This is under your my 
documents or documents, depending on what operating system you are using.

As for the unlockable cards. the first 2 mentioned below are no secret.

The goblin card can be found just about anywhere in the dungeon. After a 
battle, it will fall to the ground. Just pick it up.

the crystal card, to unlock the fortune teller, is gotten after defeating 
the drake on the 7th floor.

The next 2 cards are a secret.

Read no further unless you really want to know.

now that that is over.

It has been some time on these, so hopefully they are correct.

The nature card, to unlock the druid, is a combination of ranger healer. 
Just choose the two jobs together in any way and it will unlock this card.

The sapphire card, to unlock the adventurer, is to have a wander thief 
combo. Again, in any order.

HTH.

Re: [Audyssey] Rem Statements

2012-02-20 Thread Dennis Towne
Thomas and Jim,

Most of the time, the executable size is dominated by the linked in
libraries, which are usually a lot bigger than the source.  However,
the size of the executable is very dependent on the programming
language used and can be either bigger or smaller than the source code
depending on the language.  The target machine is also a big factor in
the executable size.

For example, assembly language programs almost always compile down to
smaller machine code; however, basic programs almost always compile
down to much larger programs than the original source, even including
comments.  This is because assembly language is a very detailed, low
level language, wheras in basic a single print statement can require
hundreds or thousands of instructions to be compiled correctly.

As a real world example, the Alter Aeon server code is written in c++,
and the source code size is 9.5 megabytes.  The final executable is
14.3 megabytes.  This is a particularly good example, because the
server uses very few libraries and is the executable size is almost
completely server code instead of library code.

This is on a 64 bit linux machine.  Our previous host server was a 32
bit server, and on 32 bit machines the executable size would only be
about ten megabytes instead of 14.

In summary, It's really hard to make general assumptions about
executable versus code size like 'compiled code is always smaller than
the source'.  The different languages and architectures allow for
extremely wide variation.

Just FYI.
