I've been wanting to check out all the detailed edits 4Kids made to the anime, and I know Cinder had a whole site dedicated to showing all the frame changes, dialogue edits, all kinds of stuff. It was a blast to read, even if it's not revelant anymore.
http://opguide.bravehost.com/Too bad the site is down. Anyone know if it exists somewhere else?

When was this forum found? An exact date would be nice.
-
I'm not sure how many people were even around long enough to remember that are still here. Maybe Monkey King and a few others. In any case I think the forum was reworked in 2005 but it existed a few years before that. There are people here and there with their join dates in 2005, and I think the forum rework required making new accounts so the 2005 people might have been around on the previous incarnation of the forum. I don't have an exact date though.

The website itself was created in 2002. The forums followed some time later in 2003. The domain name, apforums.net, came to be in 2006.
The current incarnation of the forums had its first threads created on February 11th, 2005.

Your best bet would be to PM an admin (Silver names).
You can find a list of them here. I'd suggest brennen, Urouge, or Foolio (listed as the Great Pustoolio at the moment on the page), since they're online pretty often.

Or do you mean the thing beneath your username? If so, go to "settings" at the top right, then click on "edit profile"
-
This is a lot more obscure, but is there a trope name for a main character in a an apocalyptic story that has an ability that makes him valuable to society? OR something to that effect?
-
There's the "chosen one" thing but that's more than just being valuable to society. Can you explain that part a bit more? And maybe give an example?

How much does a CPU affect the FPS in gaming? Like a lot?
-
It can be a lot but if you have any somewhat modern CPU you're not going to see much difference from the latest i7. I think since both consoles now have 8 core CPUs there might be more games using more cores but even as of right now mid-tier i5s perform essentially the same as high end i7s and AMD 8 core CPUs don't have much benefit over 4 core i5s. If you're trying to run modern games on a Pentium 4 you will see worse framerates though.
This might be different for extremely CPU intensive games like RTS' but for things like FPS there isn't much difference. And DX12 and Vulkan are made in such a way that pressure is taken off the CPU so you'll see games depending less on the CPU once they start being used. An Nvidia driver update like last year also did something similar with DX9-11 games, taking pressure off the CPU and improving performance in once CPU heavy games.
Watch Dogs for example
http://www.techspot.com/review/827-watch-dogs-benchmarks/page5.html
Edit: And also, from what I've seen, Intel has higher performance per core than AMD in most cases, so since most games don't use 8 cores yet, Intel is going to generally perform better to some degree because 4 Intel cores are in most cases better than 4 AMD cores. Also, the only difference between i5s and i7s is that i7s have hyperthreading, which is from what I understand, the ability to have 8 threads on a 4 core CPU. This also generally doesn't make a difference as I'm not aware of many games that use more than 4 cores.
-
I know that this question doesn't have nothing to do with the forum but does anyone know how to use Reddit? I'm trying to understand it better.
Thanks in advance. -
You need to be more specific about what kinds of things you're having issues with. I don't like the layout but I know more or less how to use it.
-

It depends.
the I5 4960k and the i74690k no difference.
If you jump to the 5820k+ You will get a small difference. However, by jumping to the 5820k, it does have minimum standards. Those standards outdo i5s compatible parts.
So by getting the 5820k you will get better FPS but also have the default of better FPS

I own a laptop instead of a desktop. Hence my overclocking does nor go beyond 3GHz. For a game that requires a min of 3.3GHz. what performance should I expect?
-
System requirements are hard to pinpoint how accurate they are. There are many games where systems below the min can play them fairly decently. So just looking at system requirements isn't going to help much. You'll have to wait until the game comes out to know for sure. Especially exact performance. If your CPU isn't enough to run the game well though you'll be bottlenecked by it, meaning that your CPU will be at 100% usage fairly often and your framerate will be decided by your CPU, not your GPU. So if you have tri SLI 980s that could give you 150 fps on max settings you still may only be getting 30 fps because the CPU can't keep up. Keep in mind I'm just throwing numbers out as an example.
-
Also I have a question. I've been doing some Googling and is there any way to get recorded videos off a Directv DVR without buying a bunch of other stuff to do it with? I think DVR recordings are encrypted or something. I'm sure people on here do it occasionally so anyone that knows how to do it please help me. I assume I need a capture card or something though, which sucks.

Basically I want to know which tools I need to use the website. I made an account and I don't know how to comment there. I use Chrome btw
-
You don't need any tools. You click on a topic and type into the text box to post. Essentially the same as on this site.
-

As the other guy mentioned it could bottleneck performance capability.
What sort of games are you wanting to run?
I always benchmark to battlefield because it's what I enjoy.
-
He's asking for TW3 I'm pretty sure he said. We don't know how CPU intensive that game is going to be though.
-
Yes, you are right about TW3. Inquisition ran fine at 60 fps at very high settings even though the recommended settings for CPU were higher. So I was wondering if same would be the case for TW3. Like you've said, I will wait to see the performances for TW3. Thank you Sakonosolo and DHL for your input.

I tried the search function but it failed. How do I split the quotes of people when I reply? Can I do that with multiple people at once within one answer?

Open the reply window into a new tab, then click "reply to quote" on each of the people you want to quote in the other tab and copy paste the tags and lines.
If you want to split each quote into different sections, separate them with tags… like this:
And it'll look like this:

Trying to figure out some show I remember watching forever ago. It was an anime (or at least animated like one if it wasn't from Japan) that aired on MTV and I think it was about a cop who had a partner who was a robot/cyborg. One of the episodes I remember watching focused on stock fraud or something like that. Google hasn't been much help.

Robocop? Techno Police 21C? Dominion tank police?
-
Nope, it wasn't any of those. The partner looked human most of the time, it wasn't like a robot that was entirely mechanical in looks. I think he wore a hat. The cop was a young guy, looked about 20 something or so. I think I remember something in one of the episodes about a tiered city too, like at least part of the city (or one of the cities they visit maybe) was build kind of like Water 7 in One Piece if that makes sense. Like how the buildings start low on the outside and then as you get more to the middle they get higher and higher up. Trying to pull as many details as I can out to help.

anyone got sound rips from One Piece: Unlimited Cruise SP?

What's 2chan and it's community like? Does it have the same notoriety as 4chan?
-

4chan was supposed to be the american 2chan where people would discuss manga/anime then it became what it is now.
2chan is pretty much the same as 4chan (or the other way around) in terms of communities.

When does the character tournament start this year? Sorry if this is the wrong thread, but I'm just curious.

My friend saw this image in 4chan and asked me where it´s from. Unfortunately I don't know, so I decided to ask here.

The only thing I can say is that it seems like a anime.When AP used to be good:
NEVER FORGET !!

To read the 4 volume manga Planetes or to watch the 25 anime episodes?

I'm trying to learn how to code but so many of the sites don't really explain anything well. It's like they want it to be difficult to learn. Any help? I'm trying CodeAcademy, and it's okay, but I don't have a real grasp on it right now.
I wanna use a new computer I got. I have a new PC Case/Tower/Unit.
Can I just use a flash drive to transfer data from the old one? Or is it more complex.
-
What exactly do you want to know about coding? You're really going to have to be more specific.
And yeah, you can just transfer stuff with a flash drive or portable HDD, though it could take a while to do that. Programs and games may have to be reinstalled on the new computer though because of registry entries not transferring over to the new computer, though you may be able to transfer registry stuff too. I wouldn't think it's worth it though.

Yeah, flash drive is possible for me.
I want to know how to code to make simple, mobile games. I know it's a long undertaking (should take some months, I don't plan too make something so complex and long), but I feel that some sites don't really tell what you're learning, only how to do it. Like, I'm trying to learn how code for languages like HTML or Python.
I think some like Java are better suited for making games since they also can provide the actual "content" for the game itself.

I'm super biased but I think learning C is a really good starting point to get into coding.
It's a bad starting point to do anything interesting though, but I think the limited scope really puts other things into perspective.
Develop good foundations with what loops and conditionals are, then understand different data structures.
Once you get that done you can look beyond C and get into objective based programming and learn the concepts there <- I think this you will need everywhere, the core of these concept are shared among all the languages afaik. You still need to understand all the basic stuff though.Then just do what you want to do.
Thing about coding is I think what loses people is it's easy to get bored, reason for that is because when you get down to it, it's all just manipulation of numbers(at least if we stop before getting into hardware) which lacks style.
You gotta appreciate the insane ways you can use numbers and layer it all together in super interesting ways to make insane stuff. -
^ Alright, thanks. I will look into C.
When it comes to transferring files, do I have to back them up on the old computer? Because I put them on a flash regularly, and I'm planning on simply using the flash drive to paste the files on the new computer, and still keep the flash drive, and old computer.
-
You can back them up and let the new Windows replace them. I'm not sure what benefits come with that. You can also just copy paste. You might run into issues with some games and programs needing to be reinstalled but it'll work fine for general data.

You implied that C is bad for one who wants to actually do things quickly though, right? So should I start C to learn basic things like loops and syntaxes, then move onto something Java?
Because I've read that Java is good for learning objective-oriented programming (not exactly sure what is means specifically…), which makes it easier to slide into other languages?
-
Completely out of nowhere, but I've been trying to find that one gif of Vivi shouting "Please Stop Fighting" that was used in AP Character Tournament campaigns. Does anyone have a link to it?

I think C is good because you're only going to work there with super basic tools
that are so fundamental you'll encounter them everywhere in some form or another.
Things like functions, arrays, variable scopes.Objects are like a more sophisticated/layered form of data structures in the context of OOP at least.
Dunno about which makes it easier to slide into other languages. I've only worked with C and Java so far. -
