Osgeld Posted January 15, 2017 Share Posted January 15, 2017 (edited) That's awesome! I knew something was up because the cart is not wide enough. I literally cannot see the weld seams, well not at the image resolution anyway! And the matte finish sort of does look like blue play-dough! Maybe you should use gloss next time... well if you happened to miss my epic rant about krylon this project that's what they call gray, and in some light its grey and most of the time yea its like a damn smurf eitherway I switched over to valspar and got a nice light shade of grey, cause you got to sand or paint it or you will see the seam down the middle anyway the point of the cart was not just to have a cart (but you gotta right?) but its a 128 gig MSATA SSD on a USB 3.0 adapter retropie is setup where when its inserted it just mounts it as /home so I can yank the cart, and thanks to a little like 6inch USB3.0 extension cable I can plug it into my computer, which it really hauls ass transfering large romsets then when its connected to the PI, even though that is only USB 2.0 it still is over 4x faster than an SD card, which is nice for things like cd based games where it might have to do a lot of streaming and the price the brand new samsung SSD was the same price as a samsung SD card, and the adapter cost like 7 bucks, so 7 more dollars than doing an SD card (the pi boots on a 16gig card) Edited January 15, 2017 by Osgeld 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 That's a pretty nice looking self made Chameleon there. Far more than you can give the parrot credit for. Does he even come around anymore or did this board shame him into exile? I used to lurk this place off and on for years and see him try and pathetically defend his action or self delude himself into thinking things were fine whatever the case was. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to lurk this place off and on for years and see him try and pathetically defend his action or self delude himself into thinking things were fine whatever the case was. Well I don't think he's banned, but he has a habit of making things worse for himself everytime he opens his mouth (or posts on the internet). That said, it's been quiet around here. Not enough foot for the mouth. MK, we miss you!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Oh I never thought he got banned. I just figured he probably gave himself oral athletes foot and just stopped talking, or enough people gave him hell on here he just quit showing up (self imposed exile.) I don't think he did anything ban worthy being suckered. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godslabrat Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 Mike comes back every time he wants to ask for money. If he thinks he can sell us something, he'll be back. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UKMike Posted January 16, 2017 Share Posted January 16, 2017 FYI For the hard of listening but easy of reading, I had a couple of interviews transcribed to make it easier to use the content in the book.

toiletunes Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 I'd like to see a hack of Robot Finds Kitten, just replace the text with (ir)relevant phrases like: Simple as that!

Andromeda Stardust Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 Somebody please hack one of those Nyan cat ports with Mike Kennedy's mugshot. Cheesy music, rainbow fart trail, and joystick translates to movement onscreen. To qualify as a game worthy of a Mike Kennedy parody, it must be: #1: Endless #2: Have absolutely no objective whatsoever #3: Simple enough to program in a single night 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newsdee Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 (edited) #3: Simple enough to program in a single night You can do this with a simple Scratch tutorial... Edited January 18, 2017 by Newsdee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaybird3rd Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 You can do this with a simple Scratch tutorial... But does this tutorial instruct you to make the game bug-free? 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(windows only at the moment I'm afraid) https://drive.google.com/open?id=0BwV9jPtdunRHeVNBVGRfODY4alE RAndom EXE file downloaded off the Internet? Sure, why not! EDIT: Avast opened it in sandbox and I got to play it for 15 seconds. Now it informs me I've found a "rare" file and needs to submit it to the labs for investigation. But what I saw in the 15 second preview had me ROTFLMFAO... EDIT2: File is clean! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RampantOctopus Posted January 19, 2017 Share Posted January 19, 2017 I've been a member of this board for eight years, but I've never been motivated to say anything here before. This, however, is a thing of beauty. I've met Mr Kennedy before, this seems like a highly accurate and well researched simulation. Thank you, thank you all. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
