Automatic Screenshotter / Re: Automatic Screenshotter v1.17.01 - Jan 3, 2020

« Last post by mouser on September 08, 2020, 07:50 AM »

It should start up in the same state it was left.. Sometimes on reboot it can get confused.. Can you try turning on capture and exiting, and then starting the app again, and see if it starts capturing.
If not let me know and I will fix.

Clipboard Help+Spell / Re: Error EX4 for db file AND Error DB65: DBISAM Engine Error # 8961 Header In

Sorry I've been working on some other stuff -- I'm here now, let's see if we can solve this..

Can you guys tell me if you are using the latest official version, or the new alpha version (2.54 or later)?

How strange..
But if you can reproduce it, I can fix it.

Your question is a great one -- CHS should basically be ignoring the clipboard when Affinity is running, but it may be getting confused.  Can I ask you to email me so I can send you a debug version and we can try to diagnose exactly what's going on?

It would be nice to be able to make some monitors not show anything (no date or time) when using tclock.

T-Clock / Re: T-Clock 2010 (download)

I went to this page:
https://github.com/W...ger/T-Clock/releases

And then clicked on the top headline (2.4.4 release candidate),
which brought me to a page with download links at the bottom of the page.
(it can be misleading because when you click on the link the page text may not change other than the links at the bottom of the new page).

Just wanted to say thanks to all involved in T-Clock.  Just updated to Windows 10, and I love being able to see the full date in the system tray.

N.A.N.Y. 2021 / NANY 2021 Entry - Cahoots Tabletop Simulator Mod

« Last post by mouser on August 18, 2020, 11:43 PM »

My second entry for 2021 is a bit unusual, it's a Tabletop Simulator workshop mod to help you play the one of my favorite cooperative card game fillers "Cahoots".

Screenshots:

Notes:

• You need to own Tabletop Simulator, which is not free; then you just subscribe to workshop items to add them to your copy.
• Tabletop Simulator is essentially just a 3d world environment for playing games with other people -- you need friends who also install this to play along with you -- you can't play by yourself, or with multiple people sitting in front of the same computer.
• If you like the game, buy a copy of the real physical game -- it's better!

Yeah this whole thing has gone on longer than I expected, and everyone is sick and tired of it.

Hey folks -- there is absolutely no reason to be snipping at each other about this, please stop.

The chat channel is a tiny ancillary part of donationcoder that most people have no need for -- it's not important.  It's just a place for those that want to hang out.. There's no solution that is equally convenient for everyone.

DC Website Help and Extras / Re: Testing new DC discord chat server

« Last post by mouser on August 17, 2020, 09:53 AM »

We like to stay 5-10 years behind the times when it comes to web technology.. That makes it about time to move away from irc to discord..  I have *very* fond memories of irc, and the simplicity of it, but it's probably time to move on to a more modern platform that is more commonly used by people.  This last part is the most compelling -- discord just seems to be where more DC people *already* are there days for other projects, and it's hard to justify making people use something else.

It looks like we are going to be moving our official chat system from irc to discord.
You can find an embedded client on the "Help -> Live Chat" menu of the website here (or if you already have Discord client installed you can join via discord directly: https://www.discord.io/donationcoder)

Awesome -- thanks for posting this.  As for value -- it all comes down to whether it will inspire you (or your kids) to make a game -- if so then it's worth every penny.

Anyone with tabletop simulator willing to help test or who wants to try a game with me, just add me as a friend -- steam user "dcmouser".
While playing we can voice chat in the discord server for DonationCoder.com (server name "DonationCoder.com"), so install discord as well.

Developer's Corner / Tabletop Simulator -- Anyone played with it?

« Last post by mouser on August 02, 2020, 07:21 PM »

As many of you know, I'm a big boardgamer and this pandemic has really but a dent in my real life gaming.

Recently I've been playing a bit with friends on Tabletop Simulator.  It's clunky and a far cry from playing in real life, but on the other hand it's better than nothing..

Anyway I've spent the last couple of days learning how to code/script for it, making custom behaviors and events, etc.  It uses Lua and the Unity engine.  It's pretty kludgey in some ways but it works and I'm having fun.

Anyone else done any Tabletop Simulator coding?

Here's a screenshot of TheCrew mod that I've been working on (there are already a bunch on Tabletop Simulator Workshop that are good, I'm just using it as an excuse to learn the platform):



If you have tabletop simulator on steam, you can find my mod here: https://steamcommuni...tails/?id=2184711207
