Zeus Thunderbolt Posted September 15, 2004 Posted September 15, 2004 Hey, Guys!! Its been a while since i posted because i have moved up to Scarborough in North Yorkshire to go to university . How i got in with my grades, i do not know I am doing BSc Internet Computing with Creative Media and about 20 minutes ago i was programming an animated robot in coderobot using java to battle other robots created by my class mates (i got crushed by the way ) *sooo full of hate * And i really enjoyed myself coding. We where using PC's but with a Linux OS which is a new thing for me to use and tomorrow, i will be doing my first propper coding class in the Mac labs so wish me luck, ay? Quote

On getting into college I mean I'm slowly working myself towards the same goal, but I plan on studying Archeology an Ancient History, computer programing just ain't my thing ; Anyway, congrats again and I wish all the luck.

Congrats for getting in university, Zeus! I hope you succeed with what you've chosen. I hope you make your next robot designs good, and crush your classmates and get you some revenge. Good luck in Linux, Zeus. I've heard of the OS, but never used it myself, i'm a Windows man. Good luck in doing good in your first coding class! Rock On, Zeus! Armageddon. Quote
Zeus Thunderbolt Posted September 20, 2004 Author Posted September 20, 2004 Barweep Granarweep Ninibon from Uni, man what a week, ive had. I've spent over ?150 on books that i needed for my course and my student loan hasnt come in yet, so my life will be fun for a while. I should be getting internet at my appartment in the next two weeks so i will beable to show you guys what colouring jobs i have managed to do in the past weeks without internet accsess on my home pc. Its mostly from lineart which i have seen on the net and now i will say that i do not claim that i have done the line art, just the colouring. There is some of GuyverXenon's line arts which are going to be shown and some from Uncanny X men which i have had access to and also some others that i have seen and will get their attension as soon as i get net accsess.

Sully Posted September 20, 2004 Posted September 20, 2004 hmmm.... I think I've spent more in the last 2 weeks. Though its been on a X-Box and 6 games & the Star Wars trilogy. Ahh nice to have uni over and done with Quote
Zeus Thunderbolt Posted September 21, 2004 Author Posted September 21, 2004 Man Java is hard to get use to:? it reminds me of doing visual basic in college so i should get more better over time. Have any of you lot had any experience using java? If so, you could give me a hand. Im trying to get hold of one of the core text books i need for this year called, Understanding Java by Barry Cornelious printed by Addison and Wesley. Ive found it for ?30 in Waterstones book shops but i wondered if any of you guys can find it cheeper. Quote
*zeo Posted September 21, 2004 Posted September 21, 2004 Nope, nothing cheaper I could find but here's the author's website for the book which includes links to material from chapters found in the book... BARRY CORNELIUS-UNDERSTANDING JAVA Quote
Zeus Thunderbolt Posted September 22, 2004 Author Posted September 22, 2004 w00t, i found his book on amazon.com for quite a low cost , thing is, it does not ship internationally the cheapest international seller is for ?15 plus p+p but i need my credit card which is at my bank waiting for me 70 miles away. Awh poo... Ive managed to reserve a copy of it at my University library and ill just keep doing that till i get my credit card. Anywho, my next lil side project is sorting out broadband and making it avalable to my house mates using a wireless connection. All i need to do is find a cheap 1 or 2 mb connection with a short term contract and cheap BB wireless routers. Quote
