AI in a fighting game: Reactive or proactive? Hi all GD.Net! I'm new to AI programming (except pathfinding) but, as always, I'm doing my homework ;) Now, I started to develop an action adventure game which I would describe it for it's mechanics as being in the middle between Kingdom Hearts...

What's up with NVIDIA lately? Hi all! I'm a big fan of NVIDIA, but I can't keep feeling things are going down lately, regarding it's competitors, and I wanted to know if you share my thoughts: With the last GeForce 400 series, OpenGL read back transfers are insanely slow (a...

The facebook cheat/trick! Ok, I just read it. I thought it was a joke. A myth. (Some of you may already know and it's old news for you) But turns out it isn't a joke! It actually works In your main Facebook page, press: Quote: up up down down left right left right B...

In the GD.Net poll history, http://www.gamedev.net/gdpolls/ there's a duplicate entry "How do you like your weekly dose of Journal Land via the Weekend Reading feature?" (the last poll wasn't it?... ooops no) The last poll was "When are you m...

Don't you feel some games are designed like this? Wow, my first non-serious-game-development topic. When playing some games, sometimes I feel they're being designed like this: Video link here No offense to any real designer. A friend sent me the link and I had to share this. But even being a...

Integer Division by Zero...... emmm What the ...?? Hi all! You can skip the first parragraph if you don't want to read the introduction I was testing my game in an old machine, to see how well it performed on low end machines. After a couple of DirectX crashes (the old machine has a GeForce...

AI in a fighting game: Reactive or proactive? Just to keep the interested and curious one informed, I ended up deciding for the first algorithm I propose. With a few changes, of course. And the algorithm is doing great. It's not the best AI ever, but it works, it's fun, it's simple, clea...

DX9 - dll problems Just FYI, if you use an old DX SDK, but not that old, it will dynamically compile to a d3dx_YZ.dll; however chances are, most of your customers will have that version of DirectX already installed. The problem often happens because developers use t...

AI in a fighting game: Reactive or proactive? Yeah, I may have been hyped a bit. That's I've been thinking during the night. On one side, I have a nice algorithm that predicts and adapts to the player's style. On the other, I have a determined AI style that is easier to un...

AI in a fighting game: Reactive or proactive? Thanks a lot for pointing me with some direction! I will try to get a hand on that book. From what I see from google it means a way of predicting player's behaviors based on repeating patterns, storing their frequency in a multidimens...

[OGRE/HAVOK] Copying the pose of an animated skeleton from Havok to Ogre I have no idea, it ought to be working. Another long shot, Havok might be deriving scaling propierties to children, while Ogre turns them off by default. To get a better idea of what's going on, I would leave them in the rest pose and debug...

how to creat a multisample pbuffer Am I reading "pbuffer" in 2010? Most likely your OpenGL driver doesn't support pbuffers anymore and that's why it's failing. IIRC NVIDIA implemented in their drivers only for a short period of time. AFAIK they're also no longer supported by AT...

Automatic server switching Hi! I'm no expert, but the way I would do it is by having everyone ping everyone. For simplicity, I wouldn't ping N^N times, but rather N! times since I would assume ping( A to B ) * 2 = ping( A to B ) + ping( B to A ) (I would like to know f...
