Hi Dave,
All I can say the only good thing about this is that STFC will need to
be totally written from scratch. That can be good, as many have said, as
the game will likely
Hi Don,
Well, yeah it is possible to decompile the exe file back to readable
code, but readable is all it will be. It won't likely come out clean and
understandable, and I probably wouldn't be compelled to work with the
code even after it was recovered in such a fassion. Allot of time would

Hi Tom!
Oh, that is to bad, but I like the idea of a real time game.
Blessings!

unhappy news about STFC which will put development of that title back by
countless months. Even worse I know I am to blame
Hi David,
Ahem I know I certainly didn't plan to smoke 80% of the STFC code,
but the fact that I did now leaves us with all new possabilities for
something else.

I know that this won't make you feel any better, but I did the same thing like

beautiful picture of the Star Ship Enterprise. It had running lights, blinking
lights etc. I then accidently saved the code of

This is, indeed, very sad news. Anyone who has lost major work knows the
feelings you currently have. What I really want to say, mostly comprised

Hey Thomas, I am sorry, so sorry to hear that happened to you. I can only
imagine how much work was lost. When something similar happened to me with
my floppy drive at school, my floppy disk somehow getting near a magnet and
thus it getting wiped out, luckily I only lost a single chapter's
Hi Phil,
So true. I know my skills have vastly improved the past three or four
years, and the STFC I could write now would blow away anything previous
seen just do to the fact I have learned allot over that time. Problem is
the 2.0 was going to have many core portions rewritten from scratch and
Hi Gary,
What you say makes sense. Now, that I have to basicly start over from
scratch there is lots of room for improvement and might as well redo the
entire game and that way the final product will be better than ever.
What allot people don't know is STFC 1.0 beta still has allot of old
code,
Hi Ian,
Thanks. Actually I may take the rest of the week off of programming
completely and start in fresh next week or so. I'll be able to think
clearer about it once I get over the emotional shock of having just
nuked several months code in a blink of an eye.
Although, I am a bit of a
Hi Charles,
Indeed this is a time for those four letter colorful metaphors we can't
mention on list, but oddly enough I was to shocked to utter any when I
made the discovery. My first reaction was stunned silence, and then
disbelief. It was only minutes afterwards when reality set in I uttered
Hi Liam,
As I recall at one point I believe you mentioned something similar
happened to SL where you had to rewrite SL?
At any rate having it happen once is bad enough. I'd hate the thought of
doing it more than once.
Honestly, I don't even know how on Earth I deleted 80%% of the Main

Hi Lukas,
For the moment I have been putting my work in to Montezuma's Revenge
today. I was hoping to deal with my misery by looking at one of my
projects that is for the moment posative. Although, the core engine
updates required for MR is a bit complicated since one of the problems I

Hi Jim,
Yeah, I always save early and save often, but unfortunately I am bad
about backing up my data on a regular basis. This lesson should remind
me the price to pay for failing to backup often.
