Title: Tremulous Build Point Calculator App
Post by: Paradox on January 27, 2007, 03:55:59 am: Well, this was just a demonstration of skills for a lecture i had to do. This is a simple little .NET build point calculator. It has a almost text-less interface, and has eye candy such as transparency, although it doesn't appear in the screenshots. Transparency even works on legacy copies of windows. It does require a recient version of .NET, and if you dont have one, it will download one from microsoft.

Download(ZIP) (http://paradox.halolivewire.com/trembpc/trembpc.zip)

To install, you can either extract it to a directory then run setup. It will go in the start menu in a directory called Paradox Designs. YOU MUST KEEP THE FOLDER STRUCTURE OF THE ZIP FILE INTACT. If your ZIP program supports it, you can just click the zip programs install button, and it will do it automatically. WinZip supports this.

Just a plain zip file?
Or better yet, the source.

Post by: Paradox on January 27, 2007, 08:26:33 pm: Yea, i could upload just the app, but it is already in the zip. If you just want the app, only extract the file called "Tremulous BuildPoint Calculator.exe.deploy" and just remove the .deploy from the name. Then you can put it wherever you want, but it wont have the entries in add/remove. If you want the source, i can upload vbpj files, but they are kindof big.
