I signed up for the commentary first!

Who volunteers to collect all the lines?

 

[Jaztheman]

What do you mean collect all the lines? I'll do whatever you mean.

 

[Dr. Pepper]

He means store all the commentary lines.

 

[Jaztheman]

Oh I get you.

Yeah, I don't mind doing it.

 

[sohum]

If anyone wants to start collecting/writing commentary lines off their own accord they are more than welcome. I will be trying to setup a web-based interface for you to submit this over the next day or two.

Great

Nice to see a new project mates....
all the best for the project.
i don't know anything about programming. i will help in graphic side if needed(eg: logos etc...)

 

[Abhas]

Sohum, I have Visual C# 2008 Express.

 

[viral1991]

With commentary do you want us to submit lines for that? Maybe we can take some from TAOC or Battrick and alter them a bit.

Yes, TAOC has a lot of interesting commentary lines. They should be very useful.

 

[Abhas]

are we looking at a good GUI based program, or a command line version like cricksim?

GUI.

I'm using 2008.

And sohum, I know C# is case sensitive, but what I meant was, that whenever I type a wrong case in vb.net (for example, filestream instead of FileStream) it automatically corrects it.

Ah well anyways, never mind. C# is easy too.

 

[Abhas]

But the drop down list helps a lot...
Like, i generally type console instead of Console, and i just need to press enter to correct it.

I'm having some trouble with the strings and arrays . The inbuilt help is Bad.

Why don't you hop into MSN? I can help solve your queries!

I've got a bit more friendly with C# by now. I'll try and start a bit with DB programming tomorrow!

 

[Abhas]

Be right there.

Hmm... using the System.Collections classes over arrays is probably going to be a better idea 90% of the time. In particular, take a look at the List class. That is basically a dynamic generic list backed by an array.

// old style
Person[] people = new Person[10];
people[0] = new Person(...);

// new style
List<Person> people = new List<Person>();
people.Add(new Person(...));

Much clearer, imo.

You don't need to get too deep into DB coding for this project since we will probably be using NHibernate or some other sort of object mapping/persistence tool.
