Animating with Adobe Flash CS4

Posted on August 31, 2010 by Charming Prince

I did this after watching a tutorial on You tube on how to animate using Adobe Flash CS4, well it’s really a nice program to begin with and the syntax of action scripting isn’t so different from your normal java script. in order to create a cartoon like graphics, i had to have adobe flash CS4, of which if you don’t have this application, the tutorial will not function the right way you want it to. Anyway after much hustle with the application, i finally got a hang in it, and boom, the cartoon effect was created. although i don’t have the direct link anymore to the You tube flash video tutorial where i learned this animation using Adobe flash, but i think if you simply type this on You tube search (“Animation with Flash CS4”) you’ll get a list of tutorials that are understandable and easy to implement.

Bluetooth Feature of PSP go

Posted on August 29, 2010 by Charming Prince

Wouldn’t it be nice if SONY did make an API that can make the PSP go using it’s bluetooth feature to connect to mobile blue tooth enabled hand phone to make calls. in such as way that, once connected to the mobile phone, no matter what entertainment feature the user is playing on the PSP go, once an incoming call comes in, it pauses the screen and prompts the user to answer the call. consequently, if the user wants to make a call, something like an App button that connects to the mobile phone can be provided that can dial the number the user want and make the call from the PSP go through blue tooth and using the phone’s Networks. I don’t know if you can get what am actually saying but in essence, it goes like this; make an App for the PSP go that can connect to mobile phone using the blue tooth feature and can operate the mobile phone’s calling feature and if possible texting features too..It would be a remarkable step for the SONY PSP, because unlike other devices i believe the PSP is one of the best gadgets ever created and if more features that can combine other features of hand held devices, the PSP will have no rival…Never-the-less, i know these things are somehow difficult to implement especially through cross company negotiation for such services. Well in the future i hope this can work out.

Inception Vs Salt

Posted on August 9, 2010 by Charming Prince

Inception "Leonardo DicaprioWell, being in the box office for a while, has had quite a good turn on Inception. i went to watch this movies on cinema some days back and to be frank with you, this movies is totally awesome, i like the stunts in the movie, unlike some other movies I’ve watched pertaining to time and cool 3D graphics, Inception was very much what i expect from Leonardo, his moves, thinking, the way he speaks and my favorite, the way he tends to split behaviors in his character. Inception talks about a High grade Military Device which can be used to (if i may say so) hack into people’s dreams and extract confidential information or plant information in their head. Leonardo being a major player in the scene uses Inception to achieve his motives.
Salt "Angelina Jolie"On the Other hand, there is Salt a high profile “CIA” movie starring Angelina…(“Hot Girl”) well, the starting part of the movie really got Angelina pretty roughed-up, i think the directors of the movie wanted to see the ugly side on Jolie…(Ms. Lara Croft). Anyway “Salt” depicts a woman which at first we didn’t know was working as a double-agent to carry out a massive plan for some Russian extremist. But while under cover, she falls in-love with a man whom she married and he was killed by the so called Russian extremist, then she was forced to revenge his death by killing all the Russian Extremist who are all double agents in so many US agencies/ other defense agencies.
To me, I’ll give Inception 9.5 over 10, because i felt it had a good concept and it did make meaning even with all those fantasy action. Salt on the other hand will have an 8.5 over 10, although portrayed modern-day crisis, i liked Salt but it had a terrible ending, why was Jolie running at the end after jumping from the Helicopter? she could have at least killed more or do something before it ended. More suspense…i believe

God of War 3 Final Battle Concept?

Posted on August 4, 2010 by Charming Prince

God of War

Kratos the God of War

There is something i noticed when i was playing God of War 3 on the PlayStation 3 System, i found out that in the last scene where Kratos was to battle with Zeus, the final battle after Gia’s death. After playing all those part where Kratos goes into his mind and starts finding the root of all his bad torments, when he finally revives himself and faces Zeus (“who’s is now a Ghost-like being), he beats up Zeus and starts punching his face till the screen turn Blood red. At this point i just thought of a funny concept; i think the Guys over at SONY did a “DO…WHILE Loop” there, in such as way that if the player keeps pressing the punch buttons on the PS3 controller the screen will forever be Blood-like Red and will never see the Credit Roll, till the Players removes his or her finger from for the Controller buttons. I don’t know if you get what am saying but if you’ve ever played GOW 3 on the PS3 system, i think you’ll get where am going….

Java Tips

Posted on August 4, 2010 by Charming Prince

Java is also a high level language, for me, i think everyone can become a programmer, it just depends on your interest and time, if both can match then you can do anything. in understanding the basis of Java it’s wise you have a little knowledge of at least one other high level language, it makes it a lot easier to learn that way because all high level programming languages have if not all but similar constants characters and functions. And when i mean have a little knowledge about another High Level Language, i am referring to language such as HTML. which is one of the basic and easiest fundamental higher level language to learn.

Lesson 1:
in order to be able to program in Java, a good Java compiler is required, there are some free Java compilers that are available online, you can Google Eclipse, its a free compiler or you can just simply follow this link Eclipse Download. once you have acquired the software, install it to begin this tutorial.

C++ Programming Tips

Posted on August 2, 2010 by Charming Prince

First thing you’re going to learn in upcoming C++ tutorials, its how to make simple calls. normally in all programming classes i have seen both online and in real class, they normally start with this simple process of printing out “Hello World”, but in my own tutorial, we’re going to skip that and make something unique but still simple…C++ is a High Level Language and with this, it can be used to control some computer processes.
A simple Example of a C++ Syntax below


//Sample cpp
// simple addition in c++
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
    int a;
    int b;
    int sum;

    cout << "Enter values to sum two numbers?" << endl;
    cout <<"enter first value \n";     cin>> a;
    cout <<"enter  second value \n";     cin>> b;
    sum = a+b;
    cout <<"The sum of values is " << sum << endl;

    return 0;
}

The double back slashes ( “//” are single comment line) used to indicate or remind the creator of what was there before or what needs to be done, the first three lines after the comment lines are mandatory syntax to begin any C++ coding just as you have to include this line of code “<?php echo $something; “?>” when declaring the php syntax, the opening tag ” < ” plus a question mark is needed E.g (< ?) and a question mark and a closing tag " > E.g (?>) is require fo the php syntax to work properly. The Extension for C++ is dot cpp(.cpp), a compiler is needed to execute any c++ codes, so to begin any tutorial on c++, you must first get a compiler. there are some online that are available such as Code-Block Compiler, its Free.
