Hi - It sounds like an interesting project. You probably know this, but with Director 9 you can bring an "invisible" Flash MX cast member into the score and ...
... From: "Neil Stapleton" <sahnic1@...> ... This idea has been suggested before. I'm not entirely sure that openLingo should support MX-only code at the...

Hi! Inspired by Halflife 2, I want to gather some people to develop a game. I have many idéas for gameplay but none of my games seems to be finished. So my...
Have you seen "Robot Battle"? http://www.robotbattle.com/ It's not Lingo, but I think it could easily be ported. It would be great fun to see an open source...
... From: "Christoffer Enedahl" <christoffer@...> ... I think this is both a good and bad idea. The reason it is a bad idea is that developing a game...
... Yes thats true. But one if my intensions with this message was to kick some life in this list. ... I'm not going to dismiss this before it started answers...
Well, at least game *engines* (jump&run, etc.) could be open source. This would be easier to develop as team, whereas everyone could make his/her own game out...
... From: "Stefan Ladstaetter" <ladstaetter@...> ... Agreed: I would like to see as much as possible open source, and as much as is practical form some...
Hi list, Lately, I have been looking at formally documenting the code I write for my projects. After dabbling with UML for a while, I find it a bit overkill...
I am including a script that normally works. It basically loads an external swf file into a cast member and the puppets a sprite and inserts the member. Here...
You might have forgotten to mark up a parent script with the tag: -- @type parent and that would have made it a moviescript, thereby overriding the 'new' ...
Hiyas, I've been writing a shortish article about Model-View-Controller Design pattern in lingo... in particular, focusing on techniques for decoupling the...
Hi Luke, This is a very interesting quiestion. Since I moved from Java to Director/Lingo at christmas I have probably tried most things! I wrote some Table...
It sounds like you're on the right track. My understanding of MVC is that the responsibility for displaying state changes in the model is encapsulated in the...
Hi Ben, I like your your design ideas, but it sounds like you are still working out the how's and why's of Director, so I thought I would jump in and offer my ...
Thanks Jerry, You are right in thinking that I am still working out the hows and whys of Director. I think sometimes I am guilty of avoiding puppeting sprites ...
Hi Ben, You are right, MVC is not always the best solution to every problem, and I wasn't really trying to suggest that, but the focus of the discussion is...
We tend to use MVC in a lot of our projects. Our Model objects all have an "Observable" parent script somewhere in its ancestor chain. The Observable object...
Hi Jerry, I broadly agree with everything you say, but before you go quiet... just answer 1 (plus supplementary) question: When should you abandon the stage,...
<delurk> Hey everyone, ... I'd say when you start to work on anything that is not a mockup, a quick prototype. IMHO anything needs to be built upon does wisely...
Hi - and thanks for the feedback. I guess the fundamental issue I am interested in is the practical techniques for decoupling the view (and controller, if they...
Hi Luke, ... popup ... model. ... Makes sense, a popup should know how to pop-up on it's own and there's no reason this couldn't be handled by a sprite...
Since about six months now, I've been using the following model in the apps I develop. ... Controls ... Interfaces ... Components ... 1. The controls layer is...
I think I'm beginning to see a 'pattern' here ; ) What people are describing sounds like what is known as the PAC pattern (Presentation, Abstraction,...
There's been an idea germinating in my mind since a while to create a GUI library for Director using pure Lingo. I had tried a few sprite based prototypes a...
Excellent idea. Are you familiar with the Java Swing framework? It's a large collection of UI control classes that can be imported at runtime as a library....
My Swing book says that Swing is not pure MVC but "makes use of a simplified variant of the MVC design called the model-delegate. This view conbines the view...
Hi all, First post, but the topic is great... I have a meager understanding of the coding behind Flash Components, but I believe they used Swing components as...
