Believe me when i say i FULLY respect you OTCE2K5 [8D]
I think i have downloaded everything you have ever wrote, that i ever ran acrossed for hal, and on several forums.
As far as money, i fully understand that too, Im out of work, and live in Cleveland where the only jobs left are McDonalds, Cops And Robbers. hehe
I would love to have the abilty to program some of my ideas, or some way to just make money on the net. I cant afford to Pay Attention let alone for Hal.
BUT,
I didnt look at the "Hal Community"? as competing programming companies. I saw it as a bunch of hobbiests who ALL wanted to make their Hal the best it could be. One makes a code, the next makes it better, another does skins, another does characters and so on.
Yes i am sure there are alot of Klingons that just suck up items others do with no return to the group. Maybe thats why there is so little growth in hal, to many wanting and so few giving, and feeling used, ive been there too.
The forum here always has 20+ people reading at any one time, but only the same 15 or so posting, and the SAME 15 or so are also on the other forums, And for the past couple years always the same ones.
The person getting paid for Hal is Robert, i think, if anyone else is, i didnt think that was possible, Unless there is an Ebay person pirateing it that i didnt know about [:p]
If Robert wants a New Gui, or a new Ogre character (like he already asked for), i can see him paying someone. IF someone has no time and says ill give you 50 bucks to do something, great. I understand that.
Demanding the 50? im not so sure of.
IF everyone is afraid of their personal intellectual property, then where can i sign an NDA? Where is the Super Secret Society of Hal Programmers Forums? Because i want in to do my SMALL part to help Hal, and yes partly for greedy reasons, because i want my hal better as well.
Back to the main thread topic -
I have only Downloaded the Auto-It, i havent got into tearing it apart yet, And have only read a few pages on it so far. I knew about it, like Girder, but did not get that far with it, i am still trying to understand how hal does most of his things yet. [:p]
But here is the links, if you think you can do something with it.
