Ist easy schnappen der springenwerk, blowenfusen und poppencorken
mit spitzensparken. Ist nicht fuer gewerken bei das dumpkopfen.
Das rubbernecken sichtseeren keepen das cotten-pickenen hans in
das pockets muss; relaxen und watchen das blinkenlichten.



:tiphat:
That was positively hilarious to read. :thumbup:

Good point, too. If you (Jstowe) can make meshes, then a Starcrafty surface base would be an excellent place to start, as it requires no coding at all, only meshes, textures and a bit of copying and pasting from CFG files. It's good practise too, both for meshing in general and getting better with the whole Starcraft aesthetic. Also, there are alternatives to DLL modules to those of us who aren't big on C++. :tiphat:

-I was also hoping someone can help me with the codes =]

If by that you mean if you can ask specific questions about code you wrote and that doesn't work, sure you can bring them here when they pop up.

If by that you mean that someone could write your code for you, there's no such luck. You'll have to learn it.

It's a fun read, but I don't quite get what it should be about... ?

That's a common joke and a play on the fact that a lot of German words sound like English words, or what is commonly (at least, where I come from it's commonly) called "pseudo-german".

His point, unless I misinterpret, is that the OP should put his grand designs on a back burner and gain some basic skills before tackling them, so that he can make them with ease and make them better addons as a result.

Exactly. Many goals of him are essentially rewriting orbiter, so I thought warning him about the consequences is due. Start with small steps, because many small steps get you ahead faster as many big leaps (Chinese cultural revolution pun intended).

He can do the big stuff only, if he learned to do the small stuff - and he learns the small stuff faster by starting there.
