Turkhan  | Good | What happened to the Zillions server? It seems to be down. | View [*] | |
(zzo38) A. Black  | None | Of course, there are good things about Zillions as well, but some things I don't like. Now I will tell you the thing I do like about it: I managed to make a modification of Senat game so that the Red player (usually the computer player) gets to choose the dice rolls, I played that game, and then I told my brother to play that game and he said 'O, they're just getting lucky'. But, when I said is not a good program I meant it is a good program, but it isn't a good program perfectly as well. But I still like to make a open-source one instead (to make it better). Even Hero Mesh I try to make open-source in PHP also. | Edit View [*] | |

| Joe Joyce | None | Hey, A Black [or do you prefer 'zzo38'? :-) ], we're going to need some good programmers and some good software around here pretty soon, I suspect. Best of luck with your endeavors. | Edit View [*] | |
| (zzo38) A. Black | None | Zillions of Games isn't a good program! (The company that sells it is just greedy and want to get paid more, and you can't do it with the keyboard anyways, you have to use mouse, even when you do not want to.) Maybe I (and even other people as well) should work on make a free/open-source (such as GNU GPL) version of Zillions that can read the same ZRF files, and if it is open-source then it can even be modified for any use, even to add more commands and to make a improvement as needed. I tried to make a tsume-shogi game but it doesn't do very well, it says it is stalemate even when it isn't and it doesn't make a good move, either. I want to make a new one in open-source so that it is better and can work on Linux as well, and is freedom also. Then the program can be less user-friendly and more useful in terms of adding the commands that is useful and not doing wrong thing with the program every time. | Edit View [*] | |
