My current project is a rewrite of my IRC / instant messenger bot. Just about to bring it back on MSN.

Why would you need an IRC/IM bot? to annoy/spam people? tongue.gif
and I see. I kinda expected such a thing from DX.

I just finished a Java class and more specifically it was my first experience with OO programming.
What language(s) did you use for your Graphics Engine? and did you use OpenGL or DirectX?

Ah ok biggrin.gif
ad my engine won't even be close to the speed of yours, since it purely runs on the CPU. We weren't supposed to make engine like eg: CryEngine III or something haha. We're just starting from the basics, which are the already-integrated calculations in gpu's themselves. I've added a spoiler of a readme file I made to show my professor the functionalities I implemented. it's quite nice smile.gif though most of it is so close to the basics of graphical functionality that they're integrated in gpu's already lol (scaling, triangulation, lighting, zbuffering,...)

You do realise that the vast majority of bots out there are helpful tools?

Just a small selection of stuff mine does:
  • a spell checker
  • it can embed extracts from a number of sites when URLs are posted, including: urban dictionary, ebay, wikipedia, numerous news sites and numerous message boards.
  • for sites that do not support embedding, it embeds <title> and meta description tags instead
  • it can perform searches against a number of sites including google and youtube.
  • host diagnostics (memory usage, disk space, server load, etc)
  • an ASCII graphing tool
  • logging
  • notifications (key phrases are monitored and forwarded directly to me)
  • as well as the typical pointless toys associated with IRC bots (magic 8 ball, random quotes, music video jukebox, etc). All of which obviously only activate when specifically triggered.

Think of it like the bang syntax in Duck Duck Go. Very powerful and convenient when used but keeps discretely out of the way when not required.

My eventual aim is to add some AI to it, but I've been working on that (off an on) for years and not really made much headway.

That's quite a lot of functionality tongue.gif I personally wouldn't need many of them. Though I do understand the necessity of host diagnostics, logging, notifications, etctec, the more administrative occupations a bot should have smile.gif I really don't see why you would need a spell checker xd, searches, etcetc? Or does the answer 'because I can' apply to this ;p.

I wasn't thinking about the administrative features a bot can contain, but rather the automatisation of typing/keystrokes.

You don't "need" them, but they're convenient when chatting. eg
Code:
<me> have you seen the trailer for the new Bong movie?
<you> nope. any good?
<me> !v james bond trailer
<bot> youtube.com/v=234lkjsdf4 James Bond Trailer
Code:
<you> What do you use to steam videos?
<me> subsonic
<you> !wiki subsonic
<bot> Subsonic is a media server written in Java that can transcode video and music and stream that via the web browser or to smart phones.
<me> give it a try
<me> !g subsonic
<bot> www.subsonic.com Subsonic media server
Code:
<me> did you hear about the tax back peddle?
<you> no, what happened?
<me> www.bbc.co.uk/news/388dhsdf
<bot> Yesterday the British government did a U-turn on internet tax and everyone rejoiced. blah blah blah
<you> sweet
Code:
<you> check out this new TV series! www.youtube.com/v=wersdd33s
<bot> Rick Astley: "Never Gonna Give You Up"
<me> nice try mate :P

edit: damn forum was thinking names were HTML tags. epic forum fail
