  • Every few seconds i get a bsod and the reason for the bsod?,Gooooogle chrome.re you sure? Did you check the bsods stop code? If you get bsod's frequently it's very likely that something physical is broken.

  • Have to agree with EmperorIng. I opted in on it, then opted out again. The only obvious difference that that the site is even more convoluted than before, and also bloated (probably to better "support" browsing the site from touch screen devices).

    There's an inherent flaw I have here. I saw the feedback button on the left. But I didn't want to use the new interface enough so I could give proper feedback (Though I am not under the illusion that the Youtube crew ever listens to the feedback it gets).

  • =(

  • I don't see a download link for it. <img src="smileys/smiley24.gif" border="0" align="middle" />

    Looks neat though.

  • Swedish, fluent in English. No problem here.

  • When I first heard about Construct I was frequenting The Daily Click, and was using MMF2, back when it was brand spanking new (I had been using TF and MMF since way back too). At the time it seemed like an inferior carbon copy to me and the requirement to install a c++ element was off-putting to me, so I quickly forgot about it.

    Later on I heard about it again. I decided to give it a go again and tried it and quickly moved over to using Construct permanently and by extention joining up on the Scirra forums etc. =)

  • When I saw this thread I thought of this.

  • I've perused a couple of these kinds of sites. The major sites are cafepress.com, printfection.com, zazzle.com and spreadshirt.com.

    The first three are all based in the US while spreadshirt is based in germany (meaning lower cost of delivery for us europeans). I've only tried spreadshirt, because I don't have a lot of money to throw around sadly, and it was satisfactory, though I used a gradient in my image and that didn't show up too well if you look close. The price was decent too.

    From what I've heard zazzle is supposed to have good quality on their stuff, but they are also said to be the most expensive of the bunch (their swedish site is horrible too. they used google translate or something and I guess they forgot that crowns is not 1:1 to dollars)

    I'd say if you're in the US try zazzle, if you're in Europe, try spreadshirt.

  • Nintendo owns the patent of the design. There's a good possibility that the makers of Dingoo 'are' paying royalties to use it, they usually don't broadcast such things (public image and all that). Unless you have proof that they are not.

    Here's the major problems with the product. Sure, the price is fine for the consumer, but if they do sell it at production cost they make zero profit from it. 10% of the profit from game/app sales could do well, if they had a really large market penetration, I don't think they do.

    The other problem is, the only viable things to sell on the platform is homebrew games and apps (no one will ever buy or sell an emulator for example), but the market for it is nowhere near as profitable as iOS or Android.

    I realize I come off sounding negative about it, but I'm looking at it from a developer viewpoint rather than a consumer one.

  • The Game Park consoles never made a huge impact beyond the really hardcore homebrew crowd (who now have moved to iOs/Android) and I doubt this will either.

    Even if it does get sold cost they will have to either pony up the royalty cost for using the D-Pad design or face Nintendos lawyers.

    It's a commendable goal, but I just don't see it flying, with todays competition. =/

    I understand virtually nothing of what they say, but it's really cool nonetheless. =) Love behind the scenes stuff.
