Dooz

Agreed, agreed, agreed. Pokemon was good when Red and Blue came out, but now it's old beyond old. I'm pretty flocking sick of seeing those stupid flocking chibi monsters.

Ugh. I really hope you were just drunk, stoned, or retarded when making that post.

I say that because he invokes an unoriginal, narccistic, and racist opinion. I think America will decide it needs Kanye as much as it needs the KKK. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah, but the KKK never put out a music CD (Though it'd be hilarious if they did). Thing is, simply because he is a popular musical artist, there will be douches out there that follow every word he speaks, so I really don't think that the same people'll just throw him out.

You're missing out, dude. I totally added a washing machine and a deep frier to mine. My toaster's flocking badass now.

Hahaha, the affiliation with Fox will just make IGN suck that much more.

Can't deny that!

Uh, duh. The upper class was rich enough to move their asses out of there before the storm hit. Doesn't mean it's racism though. The truth is that a majority of lower class citizens are minorities. So the people who couldn't afford to move just happened to be black. It's a coincidence, not some racist consipricy.

Yeah, I braved the storm of Katrina, here in Ohio. Well, I still sorta am. It's tough, but I think I'll make it. I'm just badass like that.

So, basically, they are going for the abandonware excuse (That since they aren't making anything, they can't lose anything by us downloading the games)?

Even though I know you were kidding, I still felt extreme hatred in my heart. I probobly would vote for Walken, too. You can't win with any of the possible candidates for 2008. They all suck.

Your computer is prolly dying. Takes me 15 minutes.

Wow, that's really kind of suvo to do that. 'Grats, K-Dash.

EGM is a magazine. It stands for Electronic Gaming Monthly. I can't post links becuase it's a magazine.

I saw screens for it in EGM. It looked pretty bad, actually.

God dammit. I'm so thick sometimes. I went back to Mr. Do's compiling tutorial, and I just realized that Inever downloaded and extracted this file: http://www.mame.net/zips/mingw-over-092.zip Jesus I'm dumb. So I extracted that over my MinGW folders and it compiled great. Thanks for your help guys, despite that my problems all stemmed from my inability to read.

You're lucky as hell. My NES is dying, I need a new one as well.

That didn't actually do anything. All it does is make it say that it compiled something, when in reality nothing compiled at all.

Alright, well I installed the version of MinGW that Mr. Do tells me to, and it starts compiling just fine. And then after like 7 minutes, it just errors with every file it trys to read. Here's a screenshot of some of the compile error, most of it had to be cut off because it was racing so fast through the errors and then immediately shuts down (My computer automatically shuts down command prompts after they've expired, and unlike a lot of computers, I don't have the option to turn that off): http://dooz.thebmp.org/images/compileerror.jpg Ugh, it's just one problem after another. Really sucks when you're flying through this blindly. Edit: Apperantly, it just gets stuck on wind3d.c. Would there be any way to fix that?

Okay, I can't read, it seems. I skipped this part, I guess, when screwing up the first time: So I did that. I went into the command prompt, went to the mame folder, I typed "c:\mingw\mingw" and hit enter, like it said to. This popped up: C:\MINGW\MAME>SET PATH=C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\;C:\PROGRA~1\BACKBU~1\;c:\mingw\bin I then typed make, and same thing happens: Nothing. It still doesn't recognise the command "make". I don't know what to do. And when I went into Environment variables, I tried making make a command by just putting C:\MINGW\BIN as the value, but that also did nothing. EDIT: I went to Mr. Do's compiling page, and he said to add "mingw32-make" two lines under "SET PATH=%PATH%;c:\mingw\bin" in the mingw.bat file. Running this file make it say C:\MINGW\MAME>SET PATH=C:\WINDOWS\system32;C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\System32\Wbem;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Autodesk Shared\;C:\PROGRA~1\BACKBU~1\;c:\mingw\bin C:\MINGW\MAME>mingw32-make Compiling src/machine/segacrpt.c... cc1.exe: Invalid option '-Wno-unused-funtions' cc1.exe: Invalid option '-Wdisabled-functions' cc1.exe: unknown C standard 'gnu99' mingw32-make: *** [obj/mame/machine/segacrpt.o] Error1 And then it stops. Another error to get confused by.

Yes, that worked, thank you very much. But now, I still have the problem with my autoexec.bat. Should I just add the line "PATH C:\WINDOWS;C:\WIN98\system32;C:\MINGW\BIN" then reboot and see if that would make my MingW work? Or should I do something else?

Okay. Please bear with me, becuase I probobly am screwing up a whole lot, sicne I don't know what to do. I want to learn how to compile my own build of MAME. So I went here and tried to follow the directions: http://www.mame.net/compilewin.html. But I have a problem; The tutorial is made for Windows 98 users and not Windows XP users. Because of that, my windows does not have a c:\windows\command folder, and even when I create one it does nothing. And so I cannot use the unzip command in the command prompt. Since I couldn't do that, I just unzipped everything with WinRAR, and hoped that everything would work fine by unzipping that way. Well, I can't tell if it works fine, because I can't set up my MingW correctly because my autoexec.bat file is completely empty. I can't put the line of text where they tell me to, becuase there is nothing in there. "Okay," I thought. "This is really flocking annoying." But I still continued my misguided adventure. My last idea was to open the make.exe file in the command prompt and try to see if maybe any command extentions would work. Whenever I do "make.exe -C C:\MINGW\MAME\" it tells me that there isn't a makefile in that folder, despite the fact that I am looking at it, and "make.exe -f C:\MINGW\MAME\makefile" just lists files that I can also see and tell me that those don't exist. My questions are: What the hell am I missing? What am I doing wrong? Can I fix anything to make it work right? Should my autoexec.bat file be completely empty? Why is the sky blue? Thanks for reading my lenghty story of hardship and incompetence, and thanks for trying to help me out. I can't tell you how annoyed and spent I am from trying to figure out what's wrong.

flocking retarded. I swear I'm moving out of the country when I'm finished with college.

Don't forget that Square-Enix also developed Crystal Chronicles for the Gamecube, and FInal Fantasy: Dawn of Souls for GBA. Anyways, the list looks suprisingly good. I'm glad that a friend of mine is getting X-Box 360, so I don't have to.

I want someone to punch Thompson in the jaw and claim that the videogames made them do it. I don't know why, but I would find that very satisfying.

Oh please, that's not racism. It's just playful sarcasm.
