Skinners, Artists, Coders, and Testers Needed: Community Suite
Happy Birthday!!
Wednesday, February 6, 2008 by ZubaZ | Discussion: Community
After the success on the Troll Thumping Day Suite some members of the Mother Thumpers are coming together to create the "Happy Birthday Suit(e)".
I envision this suite centered around a DX gadget that counts down to your birthday. On your birthday the gadget will prompt you to download the most recent incarnation of the suite components so for your special day, your desktop will celebrate with you.
At this point we have some components assigned to artists but this is a collaborative project and welcome input and assistance from everyone. Please jump in and help out if you'd like.

Close button will not work properly cause its not a executable, its an object so you have to either clear your desktop or unload desktopx to unload it.
I made it a way back when I had no idea of how graphics are gonna be. Give suggestions, tell me if there is something interesting to add, tell me if something is hard to understand.
I have made 10 stages till now.
1)Tell me if they are very difficult?
2)Should there be a skip this stage button?
3)Should there be an option to jump to any stage?
blah..blah..blah
I made this object with some older version of Desktopx(i think 3.1) and the arrow (which appears as tail of monkey when u click and drag on stone and is used to point where you want the throw to go) was working properly. But now when I upgraded to dx 3.5 with impulse, the rotation of the arrow is creating some problem. Its actually changing its x and y coordinates with the change in rotation. I have no idea why its happening with the latest version( or its happening only with mine cause saarge said its working for him?). Please tell me whether its working nicely for you or not. One edge of the tail is supposed to be always behind the stone and should point where your cursor is. It should not move horizontally. If its like this then its ok else its not working properly
I am trying to do autostages for it, means unlimited autogenerated stages. I have thought of a way to make this but it will surely take some time. Actually, I am not devoting time to it but I know if I will devote then it will be ready in two days. Anyway test it and tell if something goes wrong.

I created another Dream for this suite and I used the wall out of the supplied graphics from your site. It is a confetti style Dream with your wall as a background.
I'm not sure if I need to ask since it's a community project but can I have your permission to use the wall?
