I learned a very important lesson today.

[Cyan Ryan]

Never ever touch the SRB2 Source Code! O_O Look at what it did!

 

[SSNTails]

I think you can do a lot of that with SOCs... O_o

 

[Kaiser the Dragon]

Recolor attack!

 

[Cheezmeister]

Well, understand the source code first...that's a feat in itself...

 

[Flame]

I touch the source code all the time. No complaints from me or any of the other people who know how to program.

You probably don't understand the source code that much :D

 

[Shuffle]

I touch the source code in its special place all the time. I've NEVER had anything like that happen, though.

You broke one ^

 

[BlueZero4]

You broke one ^

It's still not that great. It's probably actually a soc, with these kinds of results.

 

[Shadow Hog]

How long did it take you to get a SIGSEGV? :D

 

[NeoJames]

This could be done with a soc...

I have no idea how to mess with the source code

 

[Shadow Hog]

You open it up. You change a value, perhaps add in more function calls. You compile. Assuming no errors were generated, you run the modified executable.

Simple.

 

[SSNTails]

It compiles! SHIP IT!

 

[Cyan Ryan]

Those things that look like Eggman-Missiles...I touched those and they hurt me! How'd they get there? And the Sonics are like rings, I've got a modified SRB2. O_o

EDIT: And for the scores lives and such, I did use SOCs.

EDIT2: Email Sonic Team Jr or post a log so we can fix..blah blah...wait, I screwed it up. Log anyway.

EDIT3:

How long did it take you to get a SIGSEGV? :D

I didn't, see the log.

 

[Cue]

I fail to see the point in quoting your log, atleast put them in

tags, or

.

 

[SRB2-Playah]

It's not a bug if you changed the source code. And the log doesn't do much in this situation.

 

[Princess Plushima]

Heh, I remember the first time I tried editing the source code.

You couldn't jump, gravity was uber-high, you got a game-over as soon as you died, and NiGHTS mode, Don't get me started on NiGHTS mode.

 

[Cyan Ryan]

I wonder if I can host a netgame with this.

 

[Shadow Hog]

It's not a bug if you changed the source code. And the log doesn't do much in this situation.

Oh no, it's a bug. It's just more of a runtime error than a compile one. Also it's one he'd have introduced. Either way, a bug is what it is.
