have any of you found a glitched el rappy?

[XS-Rati]

sometimes ill go into an area of f2 and c a GIGANTIC hildebear sized el rappy ... im thinking ooooooooooo rare enemy... think again =[ doesnt drop shit =

[Mute]

Ya, I've seen dozens of 'em. However, I wouldn't necessarily say they are "glitched."

[XS-Rati]

how would you define it ... btw one who knows codes would see around him and notice some 1 messed up and didnt do too well of the coding in ultimate like bridges dont match the other side of the bridge there are black holes all over the place which only happen when they mess up in the coding

[GCN-Maiku]

I've seen several online + offline, I thought they were rare too.

You don't know what you're talking about. "Black holes." Whatever.

If the big El Rappies were a glitch I'd think they would have been fixed, considering they've been around since version 2. I'm pretty sure they were put there on purpose. My guess is that they were made to randomly appear big to poke fun at Square and their Fat Chocobo.

When I first read the title of this thread, I thought it was referring to the El Rappy in that one room in F1. (you know, the "y shaped" one that you can see elenor from in "magnitude of metal" quest)

(*yeesh, that even confused me, but you know what room I'm talking about. . )

In one variation of the Forest layout, the rappy that appears in the middle of this room doesn't drop in like the others, he is already there and sorta acts like he got hit, then he raises up and back down before he comes after you (takes a little more time than the ones that drop in)

if they fixed it, that would just cause more problems in the coding... and btw if you took the time to read my bio you'd realize im a networking technician and i work with hexadecimal everyday... and binary... not that binary matters really in this situation...

Pfft. Networking technician. That doesn't mean you know jack about programming, and especially not game programming, which is a far cry from typical programming applications. I think you've already proved that from your previous posts.

I'll tell you what, if you can tell me what a normal vector is and how it applies to graphics programming, then I'll believe that you understand enough to know what you're talking about.

Take a look at the post above this one. That guy has more knowledge of this subject than you do. How does networking relate to graphics and game programming?.. Mmmm.. I don't see a solid connection. And so you know how to work with numbers in base 16. Do you know how to make a spinning cube using OpenGL? I'm not trying to beat you senseless, but I would prefer if more people stopped trying to sound like they know what they're talking about when they really don't.

[Jeffrey]

I have never heard anybody in the field of game (or software) development use the word "coding"...
And you seem to be making stuff up...
And just because you got your mom's PC online, it does not mean your a "network technician".
And most developers know how to use the Shift key.

...
Wow. I'm such an ass.

how much would i have to pay a mod. to ban these freakin kid from usin the psow website and webboards? XS-Rati that is.

Actually, I use the word all the time, as in: "I was up late last night coding my CS assignment." But then again, that's a proper use of the gerund of the verb 'to code'.

Yeah, it's usually slang that people pick up when they've been in "the field" for long enough. That term is used more frequently than "programming" by people once you're into it.

[Jeffrey]

Yeah... Well... I meant as a noun... I guess.

What do I know, I'm just a multimedia scripter.
Recursive functions, binary trees scare me and object arrays scare me.
CS2 is at least eight times harder than CS1 in my school. You need to know assemby and finite mathematics. Oo;

I gave up as a CS major because of some of the required math courses (stupid Discrete math!) It doesn't matter if you're writing a program or the HTML of a web page, most people within the field still call it coding. BTW, since when to Networking Technicians work with the Binary of a system? I'm learning network adminstrations and its mostly understand how networks link up, and how it sends and receives data and how to fix it if the system stops communicating.
