Update:I, AnonymousSh0t will be releasing "TheQuestion". It is a full thread of possibly all of my interviews currently. It will be released Today!
Could you please tell us a bit about yourself?
Well, what can I tell you? My name is EngiN33R, I'm 14 years old, I live in Simferopol, Crimea, in a beautiful place not far from Black Sea and I code Lua, mostly for CS2D. I know 3 languages (real ones) - Ukrainian, Russian and English, and I learn another three - German, French, Arabic.
How did you get into scripting?
I've been interested in programming for a long time, and when I (accidentally) found out about Lua, I started to learn it, even make some easy games with it. When Lua scripting was implemented in CS2D, I finally found where to apply my knowledge
How did you find CS2D?
My friend told me about it, it was 0.1.0.2 at the time. Oh it was great fun playing it back then, but now it's, arguably, even better.
Your name is Engin33r. Are you referring to the Engineer of Team Fortress 2?
When I chose that name, I didn't think of the Engineer, because at that time, Team Fortress 2 didn't exist yet. I chose it because I liked building very much, but nicknames gotta look 1337. I guess you understand me.
When did you start playing CS2D and joined Unreal Software?
I started playing it in 2006 or so, though I registered at US.de only a year ago, when I've seen that all these interesting files and stuff are actually made by players, real living players
Who in your opinion may be the best scripter in Unreal Software?
Well, it's hard to say, there isn't just one. For me personally, the best scripters are mat5b and Dark Byte, Dark Byte because he makes some serious third-party extensions for CS2D, and mat5b just for his entertaining and quality mods. I also gotta give credit to Lee, he knows Lua on the highest level I've ever seen.
Have you had any previous names before GlockPwner and Engin33r?
I had lots and lots of aliases I don't remember already... One of my aliases was MasterOK, I'm known by that name in graphic/web design area, 'cause I was writing some tutorials earlier.
What would you like to say to everyone out there?
Well, at first, I'd like to say the phrase every programming language's learning starts from - Hello World But to be honest, I'd like to tell that, whatever they tell us, we still have more in common than we have differences.
Who are your favourite singers?
You know, I prefer Discovery Channel to MTV
What software do you use to take screenshots of your files?
I use Snagit for pictures and Fraps for videos in-game. Sometimes Camtasia for screencap.
Thanks for the great interview Engin33r. Good luck with your other lua scripts.
[Engin33r]:The only thing I wish to say is - MAKE MORE INTERVIEWS! You're by far the first person ever to get this idea. Well, as far as I know.
That's my interview of Engin33r!
This time with my own new format
