How do i check is a variable can be turned into a real without errors. For instance:

sbdf7w479 cant be a real.

but

732493 can be turned into one.

Is there a reason why i experience bad slowdown only for the GMC at almost exactly 6pm EAST every single day?

I just discovered a way to do AntiAliasing, it takes no extra lag and looks good at times. Now, i just discovered this really cheap way of doing it, but the way its working i dont know if its going to work with all engines and screens (refresh rate). I just thought it was a cool idea and im not even 100% sure it works, just thought you would like to know.

Now, this code is meant to work in U3D thats why it has the variables scal(x) etc but you just change it with the respective GM D3D code and it should work. Also the numbers 17 etc all depend on the current model specifications. I know its a bit of a cheap trick but i thought it was a neat way to do it.

Now, the code below is very user specific but its the concept that counts.

Here it is (Step Event):

if scalx<17
{
scalx+=0.05;
scaly=scalx;
scalz=scalx;
}
else
{
scalx-=0.05;
scaly=scalx;
scalz=scalx;
}

Demo of it working in U3D (only the cube has it applied):

All it does it scales the model very very quickly so that the blurring occurs on the edges..... Funny ey? In another version i checked how close you were to the model, if you are really really close it vibrates more so the effect is almost non apparent, but here you can tell if you go VERY close to it.

Thanx for taking the time to read this.

How do i get the size (kb) of an external file?

Extra Notes:
I know some people have been posting wallpapers to advertise their games, this is 100% fine as long as the wallpaper is artistic and has been created with care. Make sure your wallpaper is something other people would use/benefit them.

Also, you must realise that this program is designed to spread the work of independent artists. Keep that in mind next time you upload a wallpaper.
