Fuck!    You're right!   What a moron! How could I make such a stupid mistake? 

lol - don't worry, you didn't break any records yet....Some have done far worse.

I see games with tons of more  complex sprites, graphics no problem, 2D or 3D memory is used, should not be an issue in this case.  If you have lots of rooms and lots of graphics you could optimise your memory usage and performance using dynamic resource handling and only loading the assets you will be needing for a given room as opposed to loading EVERYTHING in memory/video memory at game start, and removing from memory what is not used anymore.  These type of sprites are compressed and have decent file size so they load quickly. No need to complicate things

Ideally is to cut the umbilical cord of GM, and be unique, but in practice many would not like that.....why not break ENIGMA into 2 separate projects as was suggested before ?  From what I recall most of these functions you lot are talking about are 3D stuff majority of people using GM and ENIGMA don't use.  The majority of people use said tools to make 2D stuff not 3D...... Nothing wrong in his suggestion or having graphic system exclusive functions, after all I would hope that most people have computers supporting both GL3 and D3D9

I remember his username and read many of his posts from the days of the GMC.  I wasn't much of an active poster there but I read lots.

Your post is vague TKG, what specifically do you mean ? examples ?  From some of the stuff I read, he did not seem tolerant to trolls / bashers / flamers and he put some people to place, but of the posts I read he seemed to know what he was talking about.

Maybe I missed some drama, and obviously it's been a while I haven't read the GMC, so guess I missed something.  What you describe however can be attributed to a few members that's for sure but have not seen it in NPT's posts at least the ones I read so it's hard to comment.

What I CAN however say that I noticed is the two faced hypocrites and people who suck up to the admin, mods and YYG, praising everything, and contradicting themselves later or bashing on another forum ! I've seen flaming and rudeness from many towards newcomers, that was back in the GMC days, trolling, flaming and sucking up ! and some ridiculous topics that didn't belong there, etc.
Noticed some scuffles between users over the years and for absolutely ridiculous things.

Haven't seen anything evolving around NPT other than him having his say and putting some people to place, sometimes with a serious tone, even what could be considered borderline rude, but that's it, it's easy to take things out of context though.

@Harri

I haven't been on GMC for years

Guess you didn't miss anything.  Their forum is a bloody mess !  So much outdated info, old topics, they need a major cleanup and revamp. Their forum interface and look is ugly and unprofessional! I'm SURE they can afford a proper forum script like vbulletin

Congratulations on turning 10 today.

Hope the cake was good!

That was painful to read Robert......They can allegedly regrow the tooth but not the enamel ?  Yeah I can imagine having regrown teeth without their protective enamel.  You'd be in excruciating pain 24/7... Ask someone with thinning, sensitive enamels

What would be nice is to regrow the teeth without the nerves this way people can't feel any pain at all   This would be a good alternative to dentures ! 

I agree, I too use the term instance.

Isn't it more like instance of an object, after all you are loading your sprite inside an object and placing instances of that object in the room...... 

Thank you.  Don't forge to update the individual enigma.jar and lateralgm.jar on the wiki as well.

It's been since July 1st, and there have been MANY updates and bug fixes to ENIGMA and both LGM/ENIGMA jars.  Is it possible for someone to update the stand-alone installers ?

Thanks.

That's why I put free in quotation marks . My whole family has dental insurance through my dad's job, but it is indeed one checkup every 6 months (per person) at no charge. I don't know the name of the dental insurance company though.

It's the same as your group dental, dental is the optional coverage.   Some cover 60%(or 80%).

I have dental insurance, so going to get my teeth cleaned twice a year is "free". Also getting all of my wisdom teeth removed didn't cost a penny.

You'd be surprised but it's not free...group insurance can be costly especially if you are healthy, and you do the math it costs far exceed 2 dental checkups    Also don't know what company you are using, but most group insurances offering dental I've seen cover for 1 checkup per 9 months.

Two were impacted, and the other two were decaying. None of them had finished growing in completely. I had my wisdom teeth removed by an oral surgeon, different from my regular dentist/hygienist's office

Good.  You also must have felt the price was different too.  I was charged over $400 for 1 tooth removal, duration of procedure, 20 minutes   BUT was well worth it, did not even feel the numbing.
My regular dentist would have charged me $40 LOL, but when she started the procedure on me, I felt intense pain as she was sawing my gums open lol so she stopped and referred me !  the specialist told me all was needed is just more anesthesia This one rare thing where I don't mind paying 10x more for

(so scare tactics is unlikely. Plus my dentist is a nice guy).

Most of them are nice, they charge 3 big figures to clean your teeth and poke cavity hooks inside your teeth so they better be nice

I had felt no pain really in my wisdom teeth other than discomfort every now and then.

You did well.  Leaving them untouched gets worse over time, cysts can set in, they can be come cancerous, infection can set in, then you would wish you had them removed !  In my case my dentists shares the xrays with me, and he knows that I know so no scare tactics or lying needed, big advantage there. One should never ignore impacted wisdom tooth.

My dentist is one of those fancy laser dentistry places, and they use lasers for both filling small cavities and for detecting cavities.

We have those here, but even with the laser ones you get numbed, they are cleaner and no risk of friction building up and exciting the nerves that's not fun!

The two that were decaying were far gone according to the dentist, to the point where they'd likely have to be pulled as soon as they finished growing in (and if not I'd have to get root canals most likely).

There are far worse problems too.

So no use of elephants or door knobs, that's a good sign.  I heard from people that things were so different back in the old days, people used to receive their shots with sharp knives and bigger needles, pulleys used, ropes, etc. TORTURE basically

I didn't wake up until I was in the car on the way home :p

Were you the driver ? 

I've got some swelling but it's not severe. The anti-inflammatory they gave me is basically a crapton of ibuprofen

Probably some Naproxen. Yeah some people don't tolerate that stuff.

I'm glad I was given the laughing gas. I've had cavities before and being awake for those is stressful enough, even though usually I don't feel much.

Yeah when you hear the sound of the drilling.......Now it's worse because they have become so much smaller and thinner, so the sounds they make are very high pitched and highly disturbing.

When I had mine removed I wore some headphones and listened to some loud music, that helps and the specialist was talking to me the whole time saying what he was doing, such as cutting my gum in half, drilling in the bone, pulling the roots, etc.....lol, and all that did not feel a thing......oddly I feel intense pain during a regular cleaning due to sensitive enamel.  so much that I should get general anesthesia during regular cleanup

So now that you have your wisdom taken out, you don't have to worry for a while, until you get dentures

Actually, I don't know what you mean by impacted,

Normally the tooth grows normally above the gum, into the mouth......  Impacted, it does not fully grow, it may either not go past the base of the gum or slightly but it is "blocked" from normal eruption due to another tooth.  This can cause complications. Sometimes cysts start to form and that can cause serious complications down the road.  Impacted wisdom tooth is not uncommon. 

two of them had 4 roots and were welded to the bone, even lost part of the ceiling of a sinus and that one kept troubling me even after the gums had healed. 

The surgery to remove an impacted tooth carries its risks, a nerve can be pinched, and that will have a lasting effect even after healing.  Your dentist/surgeon would normally inform you of this.

What I do remember is the excruciating pain the next day when the swelling started, MF!

Yes, throbbing is common.  That's why you are given pain killers.  I did not WAIT until I got to that point and took my PKs, full daily dose for the first 2 days, I did feel some pain and throbbing but not excruciating.

I wished for some heavy use drugs for the first time in my life!,

Some dilaudid would have done the trick ! lol!

Imagine people getting ALL their tooth pulled and dentures placed in.....when they have to drill holes in bones and put hooks !
I don't look forward to that MFing day, and that's why I take care of my teeth

Robert, it's fine.

Objets is french plural of Objet.  Since we are not dealing with only ONE object, but potentially many objects.... Objet(s) can be used too.

Also the screenshot "no object" should be translated to "aucun objet" or "aucun objet selectionné"

Cheers.

Hello, I have slept for the past 18 out of 24 hours. I'm usually only awake for 1-2 hours at a time. First let me say it's extremely probable they botched the surgery and just didn't tell me. I needed all 4 taken out, 2 of them were impacted, and 2 had already started to decay in my mouth. All 4 probably shouldn't have been done at once, but I didn't really care.

Actually you are the patient, it's your right to ask that not all 4 be removed.
Also, was it your regular dentist who removed them or a specialist ? (specialists also are maxilofacial surgeons) and have done it a lot, and actually teach dentists. So you had 2 impacted ones, those are fun They probably had to drill a hole in your bone to reach it and yank it out and in some cases they saw it in half (the tooth).

I was able to eat within 4 hours of surgery, but only mushy food (which I'm supposed to eat for the next week too). I was bleeding for basically the entire first day so I had gauze in my mouth all day, but now on day 2 there's only a speck here and there of blood.

You're doing fine

As to why I am supposed to eat only mushy foods for the next week, I think it is to avoid getting chunks of food lodged into the partially open wounds, or to avoid ripping off scabs or the sutures. So it's not that I lack the capability (although it probably would hurt a bit to eat solid food).

Food getting stuck / lodged is potential for bacteria and the last thing you want is an infection, as that will hurt like a MF !   I reckon when I had mine removed I played it safe and did not eat solids, and had smoothies lol!

I don't know if there was any bone drilling at all, but I did have one problem tooth that could be seen from the xray (the root was extremely curved), and that was the one that was bleeding the most.

Was probably on your impacted, and was likely the reason it had to be removed as these can make cysts and spread to healthy tooth.  Some dentists are money hungry and tell their patients to remove all 4 just to avoid possible future complications ! You mentioned you had only 2 impacted ones, those HAD to be removed, but the other 2 were they decayed ? If not, you didn't have to remove them.  Your dentist probably scared do and told you that it had to be removed because of the empty space below and the top tooth shifting down..... scare tactics, most of the time it's really not needed to remove all 4, fact, there is no reason to get them removed at all unless 1) impacted 2) decayed, and these are vulnerable to decay more than any other tooth

As for the drugs, I took a valium

LOL oh is that what they told you ? They probably gave you some E.

As to why I actually agreed to have all 4 of them done at once, that's how I've heard of literally everyone else having theirs down around here (when all 4 were like to cause problems).

Rubbish, that's like many dentists saying you need a tooth filling when you really don't have a cavity, just the beginning of decay, which often can be reversed with proper care....Most dental procedures are frivolous, just like surgeries   If you really brush carefully, floss and take care of your teeth and gums, you should not have problems.  The wisdom are hard to reach areas so dentists ASSUME it's ok to yank all 4 to avoid potential problems later on but I only have 1 removed and I had to, and I'm still alive

bad luck). Plus you know I'd rather not have to go through this whole process twice ^_^.

Well the impacted ones are surgery, otherwise the grown ones are less complicated. 

Pills I am taking: vicodin, another pain killer, general vitamin, anti-inflammatory, and something like Pepcid AC to calm my stomach.

Ok those are some strong PKs
I managed with advil.  Only took 2 anti inflammatory pre-surgery and a preventive prescription of Pen-V in case of infection, which I never had.

At least it's done  

Now when you woke up at your dentist, did you see some hooks and ropes / cut ropes and crooked door knobs ?
