What do the numbers in notepad mean??
I take it this is coding, but when they go about "finding" the infomation, is it trial and error?? or with the correct knowledge do you look at those numbers and just know what needs to be done?
Further more, A "server" that has been set up by yourself, or someone... Includes Hardwear yes? If you could please tell me how a Server in your basement turns into a Server someone in England can play on. (not to the extent of doing it, more general knowledge.)
And if you could direct me to a website for basic Programing, that would be greatly appreciated 
Thanks guys! |
Yeah itll involve hardware, just patch to live, go to scorpious2k.2ya.com and download the patch, then you will have it auto-setup.
I am fairly young, I will admit that I did not learn about computers from anyone except for books. Playing around and reading newsgroups and helpsites is how I learned.
Programming... well I started VB, and extreamly basic C++ at 6 and a half.
Oh, the hardware it will involve, is a server... you might want a monitor and spare keyboard if your going to be controling the database from the server itself, I am actually typing on my server pc right now.. it works great.
I recommend using Windows XP PROFESSIONAL with full service packs, NOT HOME EDITION, Windows 2k is ok, windows ME and 9k is NOT ok, windows NT I do not recommend but I suppose it should work.
For the ultimate server, I recommend Windows Server 2003. I use XP Pro on my server... and a Comcast high-speed internet connection.
