I have had an idea that may sound crazy, but it could make a cool technology demo of what DarkBasic can do

Basically, you might download, for example, the 30KB or something So-and-so file, load it in, and insert the Audio CD (that's to stop me getting sued for giving the music out that is )

It's been synchronized earlier by a person going through the Editor and pressing Enter whenever you come to a new line in the music, so it's ready already. What you actually hear is the official music, and you'd see the words overlayed in some cool font ( a line at a time ) over a group of pigeons performing to the song. They may have objects to hold or scenery to browse, but it's still a group of pigeons performing.

Sounds crazy - But do you think it would be good???

NOTE: I HAVEN'T MADE IT YET!!!

Gr@te! I'll start work on it then..

But just one thing...
I'm the world's worst animator and modeler, so I would really appreciate it if someone could... ... say... Make the pigeon model for me and give it animations (like pigeon_walk.x, pigeon_playguitar.x for example). Any links to any pigeons already modeled would also be REALLY appreciated, thanx.

P.S. I'll also post this on the 'Team Request' forum.

Oh, and the source code attatched jus' says "rem WATCH THIS SPACE!"

It will be open source, and to stop any wrongdoers from stealing it and calling it there own, I am also working on a method so that you can't turn it into an EXE.

it wasnt gorey or anything, it just got smacked really hard, flew about 50 ft, and landed right next to a 50-60 year old lady sitting down. You shoulda seen her face! It was hilarious!

I'm sure if you attempted to make a pigeon model and posted it and it was truely horrible, someone may feel bad and help you out. At least an attempt was made. Or make a rough program using models you already have as proxies. You'll find people are more willing to help if there is a solid base behind the project.

good luck though, sounds like a fun project...
