New Users Troubles - Jacob - 17-09-2008
I was wondering what everyone thought was the hardest thing for noobs to add / edit in the current MS4.
Stats, commands, packets, drawing, etc.
Re: New Users Troubles - Anthony - 17-09-2008
When I first started, I couldn't really get my head around drawing things using bitblt. Other things seemed pretty straight forward but I think it was the srcRec and destRec that I had trouble understanding the most.

I think DFA's Programming Manuel does a good job explaining the drawing system in MS:

To be honest, I see people talking about bliting, and stuff, and I'm completely lost.

I didn't really have much problems, with packets. Than again, i haven't really worked with them. Try to think of it this way: Packets tell the Client, what to do. A client, is just a GUI for the server...
Re: New Users Troubles - Rian - 20-09-2008
Packets dictate how the client and server interact with each other.
The client is not a GUI for the server. It is tool for connecting to, and accessing data from the server.
A GUI is a Graphical User Interface. Most every program has it's own GUI, with the exception of window processes and trojans and stuff.
