Xuzz | New Idea CompilationItems can be added with the same format i used (continue the count  )  ...
Here's my list:
1)Custom text messages like in the tutorial (many)
2)BT multiplayer, using ghost bike for the other player (many)
3)Time and battery in interface, remove pointless speed meter (many)
4)Statusbar shown in fullscreen as an option (Xuzz)
5)The obstacle mines should blow up when run into (Kristopher)
6)The 'submit best times' part of this web site should accept more than one recording at a time (Kristopher)
7)When selecting a levelpack that has the recordings on the card, don't load all the recordings. Instead, wait until the user selects a level. Then load the recording for that level. When the user selects a new level, keep the other one in memory, but load the recording for that level (Xuzz)
8)A more impressive menu system like in Arcade Reality (PiNerd)
9)On the map screen, draw a route we would like to take and then it shows up as a line in the game to follow (PiNerd)
Items. Placed it editor, have numbers like mines and flags. Collected like flags, and used immediately. Example items: Rotate Gravity, flip gravity, speed up for a bit, slow down for a bit, reduce friction, rotate gravity left/right relative,set gravity certain direction, automatically reverse, stop you in your tracks, etc. Would make for some cool, dynamic levels. (Xuzz)
10)Moving ground. Ground with a path set in the editor, starts moving at either beginning of level or only when the bike is touching it. Moves the bike with it. (Mr.Pickle. And Xuzz)
11)Make your own texturized versions of HoF levels and submit them like normal (Xuzz)
12)Release the flash player source (Sz)
13)Dynamic biker head2head, this might work because flash is ECMAScript so it can make objects (bikes) dynamically (Xuzz)
14)Convert recordings into the new server recording format, then use bike.toyspring.com/replay.php?replay= http://mysite.com/recording.bod instead of the flashtool (Xuzz)
15)Letting people write BoD tools in php and submit them to Sz for possible inclusion on a Tools page (Xuzz)
16)Levelpack submission form, then sent to Sz for evaluation (Xuzz) |
Mr.pickle.
|  |  | very good Ideas but I personally like the speed meter |
| Yuzz
|  | | I like ideas number 5 and 6 |
| PiNerd
|  | | Nice, but I'm sure I had more ideas.
Open level format for instance, so people can edit the actual file, instead of it being a prc. |
| Xuzz
| | | 17)Open level format so you can edit the level file, with a possible PRC converter (or just a new format). Also can make a custom level editor for PC. (PiNerd) |
| PiNerd
| | | Oh yeah, and a file swap syncing system:
One file on your card containing all of your HoF recordings.
You upload this and then you receive a new file which you save onto your card. It contains your new rank on each level/lp/overall, the time lists for different rnks on the HoF levels, and maybe recent forum posts.
You can then view this info on your device, and when you complete a game, it can tell you: "this is about rank x" so you can have an idea of where you are.
The file could even contain your profile picture which you could change to a picture taken on your device to upload in the next submit.
I said this before but not as clearly.  |

| | | I think that PiNerd just inspired a programming project! Ill be starting soon on Bike or Plan.... |
| mike flips
|  | | Pinerd, we've been looking for that for a while. I think it wouldnt be too hard for SZ to add some of that info to the excel file that is already on our profiles. |
| PiNerd
| | | Hey Xuzz - I'll work with you:
You can do the Palm-side C/C++ programming and I'll do the server side PHP programming to extract the information. It's a shame you can't program C# for Palm or else I'd go up against you in a competition of the coders! |
| Kristopher
| | | Xuzz
| | | i'll side with Kris on this one. Anything in the .NET "Framework" is terrible. Loading a 300mb runtime into memory for Hello World? |
| PiNerd
| | | C++ is terrible! Unsafe memory using pointers! Inconsistent compilers! Have to download libraries and ship DLLs with programs just to use everyday features! Eugh!
C# is awesome. Safe memory with no pointers! One, consistent compiler which dynamically rewrites your code to optimize it, or interpret for web pages using ASP.NET! Just write a using line at the top of your source to gain instant access to streamlines, professionally written extensions! Reflect programs into many other languages such as VB.NET (the dark side), Python (Big boy BASIC), Ruby (*other!*), MC++ (for you people who write Windows Windoze), or even learn CIL, to get a deep understanding of how compiled programs work! When a new version of .NET gets released, YOUR PROGRAMS AUTOMATICALLY RUN TWICE AS FAST!!!!!
Oh yeah, it doesn't work on Linux or Mac.
Hello world in C#:
using System;
Class HelloWorld {
static void Main {
Console.WriteLine("Hello, World!");
}
} |

| | | Boo basic. I can't stand not having a proper C-style syntax...
PHP beats them all if you count interpreted languages  |
| Mr.pickle.
| | | pinerds idea up there about putting ranks and stuff on your palm is the best Idea on this whole page. |
| Xuzz
| | | which is why im programming it right now (with him of course ) |
| Xuzz
| | | 18)Players who haven't visited the site in over a year's games are automatically opened (PiNerd, Mr.Pickle., Xuzz) |
| mike flips
| | | 19) I suggested this to BB earlier today. Its not a bad idea.
The golden club shows which players have "dominated" the game if you look around the top 25 or so. Nearly all the players have been "big" in the game and have contributed a lot. But the rest of the golden club ranks realy just dont give any "real" meaning because a lot of people got golds a long time ago and were never that great but managed to rack up a few points here and there.
To make the golden club have a bit more meaning for newer players who want to see how they stack up against current players, i was thinking of maybe adding a filter to the golden club. That way players can view golden club in a few different ways. For example:
"Golden Club in the last 3 months"
"Golden Club in the last 2 years"
This would give players a better perspective on their "dominance" of the game on a more relevant scale.
I know the point is that its more of a "hall of fame" but it would be nice for people who have only a few medals and want to see how well they have done compared to other people around their rank (aka Pickle vs BB or for those who have a few more golds, Laser vs Vega)
Anywho, just an idea |
| Mr.pickle.
| | | I actully agree with mike for once |
