+many to pirren. Considering Keller is putting in more effort into the game than pretty much all of us combined, save the PCC folks who design all the missions. If not outright being hired, at least the devs should share resources and tools with Keller to make his life easier. Coding for a game you're paying to play and getting no assistance from the dev team, that's too heartless.

Nah, I'm perfectly happy to do this as a personal project. It helps to keep my skills up, as I follow all the procedures and discipline I tell my developers at work they have to follow. Besides, I make a very comfortable salary. I'm not sure Guild could afford me right now.

I will however be writing Inc when I finally get a chance. One of the plugins under development supporting the Casino is a gameplayer plugin. Right now, it uses text for all the games it presents. I want to use graphics though, but despite being able to get the graphic from Targetless and some other plugins to show with the code, I can't as yet get any of the game images I have setup to show. (namely cards for the blackjack game and the poker game under development) All I'm getting at present is a white background with no image. I tried running the image through the graphic processor utility published in the forum a while back, but to no avail. The images appear to show just fine in Windows, but not OSX (haven't tested Linux), so on the surface, it appears there's something I'm missing. I know it's not the Lua code, which leaves the image itself.

BTW, my apologies to Pirren for so completely hijacking this thread. I shall endeavor to get it back on track.
