My girlfriend and I played and beat the entire game and she really doesn't like video games all that much. Lego star wars or Lego anything is fun and very easy to learn.

In other words-- you can't get BOTH yours and your spouse's. Just one. Not sure about the “naturalized” part—

So far recognition software exists but you have to manually highlight what you want it to paraphrase.

What hardware/software could i use to get my files from my hard drive? by Mathew G http://www.computers1.info/my-laptop-crashed-for-the-2nd-time-what-hardwaresoftware-could-i-use-to-get-my-files-from-my-hard-drive.html/comment-page-1#comment-6062 Mathew G Tue, 20 Apr 2010 11:43:18 +0000 http://www.computers1.info/my-laptop-crashed-for-the-2nd-time-what-hardwaresoftware-could-i-use-to-get-my-files-from-my-hard-drive.html#comment-6062 You could try setting the hard-drive up as a Slave on another computer to see if you can access your files. Another way is to use a Linux LiveCD. It runs a copy of Linux off the disc and onto your computer. You can then access your hard-drive and copy files to a USB drive, burn them to disc, etc. You could try setting the hard-drive up as a Slave on another computer to see if you can access your files.

]]> Comment on How do I make a game with a serial key thing? by two pi http://www.computers1.info/how-do-i-make-a-game-with-a-serial-key-thing.html/comment-page-1#comment-6058 two pi Tue, 20 Apr 2010 11:07:54 +0000 http://www.computers1.info/how-do-i-make-a-game-with-a-serial-key-thing.html#comment-6058 The easiest way is to use a simple password. At some point in the game play, ask for a password. If they have it, they can move on to the next level, and if they don't, refuse to move forward. When somebody purchase the game, they're actually just purchasing the password. They already have the full game, but they cannot access it until they know the password. Of course, the password will get around and people will be able to defeat this system. You could make it a little more secure by giving each instance of the game a unique serial number, and then requiring the users to send you the serial # to request a password. You then use the serial as a hash for MD5 or some other security protocol, and generate a custom password for that particular instance. It's probably not worth the effort. Unless your game is really amazing, you should probably just give it away. People aren't buying games that are just like games they can play for free with Flash (and it's hard to do much more with GM.) It will probably be better in the long run if you give the game away and make a name for yourself so eventually you can sell games written in more substantial environments.
