BYOND has most of those (pager banner) because they want it, pager is to keep in touch, and banner is so people don't rip them off and say it's their own. This may be changed, but don't expect it anytime soon.

But its my server and I don't want ads and all that crap on it!

It shouldn't "be" byonds game.
I have my own server and all they do is provide you with a webpage and a simple compiler.

I don't want BYOND to own my game! I want to have complete control over it without having to decompile every file and edit it to my needs!

Well BYOND's deal is just plain stupid!

Is there any other way to make it so you can connect to a server?

I tried using my own C++ compiler but it runs off of Dreamseeker and the only way to edit that is with decompilers which cost way tooooo much!

BYOND is a compiler that made a language so that people can't use it anywhere else.

BYOND is just a compiler which adds advertisments and all its crap and made its own simple programming language!

thats it! Its the same as a compiler but with its own file types and what not!

No, it is a C-like language desined to make it easy for people to build multi user applications with graphic, sound, save, etc. functionality built in.

Do you not realize the creators have to have some way to publicize creations and maybe someday make money? How many compilers and 'simple' programming languages have you ever put together?

So then it's the same..but not! Try thinking before you post.

If you want customization, that's fine. But it's not a priority. Maybe when you stop ranting and start actually *coding* you'll see that BYOND is one of the best things out there. But seeing as how your keyname is Goku<whatever>, I am probably wasting my breath.

You could launch it through DD but right now there is no way to play a BYOND game without ads, and all the stuff you rediculously demanded be removed.

(Excuse my grammar, I haven't been in a English class in over a year. I just started the other day so it will get better.)

Dream Daemon just lets you host without having to be in the game youre hosting. But that doesn't solve your problem, does it? And if you really want to make YOUR own game and have it not be BYOND's. Why don't you go create you're own GMUD client and make your game there... And really... I think Dantom should add some kind of system in Creating a key that doesn't allow anything DBZ related... Because yes, DBZ names with numbers is quite annoying.

I'd be surprised if you're over the age of 8. You want everything, and you want it NOW. How would you like it if you spent over 2 years designing something, only to have some idiot come up and say it sucks? The nerve of you!

If you want it to be *your* game, then it is your game. End of story. BYOND is not really responsible for anything you make.

Another thing, DM is only supposed to be used in BYOND. C++ is different. All the programming languages aren't the same, you know.

Anyone with a DBZ name is automatically an idiot, with very few exceptions, because A) you weren't creative enough to think up a better name, B) you might make yet another DBZ game, which we DO NOT need, and C) many people with DBZ names are idiots. I guess you aren't an exception to this.

By the way, it's illegal to state that you will kill the president, EVEN IF you put a just kidding after it. I'd advise you to edit that before you get into serious trouble.

Right on wiz! ^_^ You tell em!... You too Shadow (Looked at Shadow's post before this one.

Mmkay.

I wouldn't have replied at all, but I noticed that when you put re: in front of your topic line, it abbreviates it to "how do you get rid of men." Funny.

Your problems all have a very simple solution: learn how to program in C++ and make your own game from scratch, with the interface the way you want it. Failing that, let's take a look at your "demands."

1)I want the side chat menu gone.
2)I want it full screen

Other people have asked for the ability to toggle the text window off when it's not needed, and for the ability to make BYOND take up the full screen. They presented their requests intelligently, along with the reasons they want them. Last anyone heard, these things are still being considered. Considered. No one's going to rush to add them in. Why? Because they're cosmetic details. If your game doesn't need to use the text window, don't use the text window. If you want a bigger graphical window, make it bigger. As far as the "look" of having Dream Seeker contained within a window goes, that's just it, it's just a "look."

If your game's a good game, it would still be good no matter how the external presentation is. If it isn't a good game, it wouldn't become a good game in a full screen environment.

3)I want my own special chatroom(press enter and a little box appears above your head as a thinking bubble and you press enter and it turns to a saying bubble so the world can see it).

You want it? Fine. Knock yourself out. Other people have already done similar things. What's stopping you?

4)I don't want pager

Turn your pager off then. :P

5)No browser

So don't use the browser. :P

6)No stupid File, About, Help and all
7)No arrow keys beside the BYOND logo

You seem to be deeply confused here about the nature of BYOND. These things you're complaining about represent the STRENGTH of BYOND, not its weaknesses. There's a File menu because Dream Seeker is not a program for a particular game, it's a client program for an infinite number of games. Think of it as Internet Explorer or Netscape. The File menu and the Edit menu and so on don't have anything to do with the page you're looking at... they're part of the browser program.

8)No byond logo there to annoy people

So, Dan and Tom do all the work to make your game work, and they don't get any credit?

I wanna know if those can be solved or if they ever will be solved!

Most of these things aren't problems. The ability to hide the browser and text box and customizing the appearance of buttons represent nothing more than cosmetic changes... if your game is decent, go ahead and make it now, and it will still be a decent game... if the ability comes later to disable the browser and the text window, go ahead and use it.

In the meantime, if you want to make a game that has no conncection to a larger community, that doesn't provide players with the ability to find other games and other players and communicate with them... you shouldn't be trying to make your game in BYOND.
