  1. what I meant by month is last, rest is first is

    everything updates all at once except month, then the month appears. Its not a wiping update.

    @minime of course it wouldn't work right now. Theres no destination input. Yes, its sent from the php side, but you can induce a delay in image loading on the java script side, otherwise we wouldn't be having those flashing colons now.

    Here's mike's list of what it would be like

    The problem is, that the effects are inconsistant from movie to movie, that's why I would say let's use BTTF I as the base from programming the replica TCD.

    Here are all the inputs across all the films for comparison:

    BTTF I - tc demonstration JUL 04 1776 - this is the only instance in part I in which the month is delayed in appearing:

    BTTF I - tc demonstration Dec 25 0000 (starts blank) all segments update at the same time:

    BTTF I - tc demonstration Nov 05 1955 (starts blank) all segments update at the same time:

    BTTF I - time update from 01:35 to 01:24 - instant

    BTTF II from 2015 to 1985 (starts blank) all update at the same time:

    http://www.outatime.it/ritornoalfuturo/fra...=220825&p=2

    http://www.outatime.it/ritornoalfuturo/fra...=220850&p=2

    BTTF II from 1985 to 1955 (starts blank) looks to have day and year light up first, but in the next screen all segments are on at the same time:

    http://www.outatime.it/ritornoalfuturo/fra...=354125&p=2

    BTTF III from 1955 to 1885:

    http://www.outatime.it/ritornoalfuturo/fra...=100100&p=3

    http://www.outatime.it/ritornoalfuturo/fra...=100125&p=3

    http://www.outatime.it/ritornoalfuturo/fra...=100150&p=3

    BTTF III from 1885 to 1985 - (starts blank) month and day appear first then year and time:

    http://www.outatime.it/ritornoalfuturo/fra...=548350&p=3

    http://www.outatime.it/ritornoalfuturo/fra...=548375&p=3

    And concerning the inconsistencies in bttf1 and 2 with everything showing up at once

    Part 3 is the odd one out. In both parts 1 and 2 the month lights up slower than the LEDs due to the incandescent lights behind the displays. Its a result of the design that they turn on slower. Trust me

    (Or, if you don't trust me, check the DVDs and walk through frame by frame. I don't know why outatime.it doesn't show it, but its there on my DVDs.)

    Outatime.it btw captures frames on 250 ms intervals which is slower then the refresh rate of the time circuit disiplay.

    Some updates to make it better reflect the movie circuits from Parts 1 & 2.

    beware the loud sound.


  2. I'm not looking for excuses. I'm looking for "Ok, let me see if I can try it." If he said that like after a few days, then I understand, but this was rather immediate, telling me he hasn't played with it yet. So I said it was a lame excuse when he clearly hasn't given the time to play around with it.

    He might think that it might be hard, but theres always more than one way to tackle a problem. Like he reasons that the native function that draws the texture on the screen, can only be used in a particular event of the class and that would make use of a timer hard, and thats just not right. He can use the timer to trigger events of the class.

    And also his comment about that GTAIV is structured differently....well, newsflash, so is the TI Basic Language, C++ with DX Hook, C++ with SDL, Apple I, and GTA code that I have made time circuits for. And I can easily configure the javascript and php one on this site to do the same, as well as do it in Java if the rest of the circuits was already developed and only needed the month delay in showing up.

    And sorry, school is making me cranky. So I'm going to be a bit irritable.


  3. It isn't

    flag = false
    
    ...
    
    if speed > 87/88 (depends on speed progression, don't want to see 89)
    
      flag = true
    
      store_coords
    
    jf @beginning
    
    while not car_near_coords_radius(1.0)
    
      create_effects
    
      create_wormhole_at_coords
    
    endwhile
    
    implosion
    
    flag = false
    
    ...
    and disable the regular wormhole from forming
    if flag == false
    
      create_regular_wormhole
