Shader management with lights
|
Hi,
I'm rather new with shaders (I've just managed to get my first shader to compile and work in a game). I however have a neat abstracted library under my belt that for now works with the good old fixed function pipeline.
The library abstracts... |

Custom Installer, Behaviour on Vista

Just for the heck of it I wrote a custom installer following several MS guidelines. The installer is supposed to work from naked Win95 up to the latest Windows. This means for me to keep dependencies as low as possible.

Managed C++, Import in C# sees too many symbols
|
Hi,
I've built a managed C++ wrapper around a C++ code base to have access from C#. This works very nice so far.
The c++ wrapper is built with VS 2003 (i'd prefer to stay it that way), the C# project is built with VS 2008 C# Express.
Everyth... |

MFC to .NET, interfacing with C++ classes
|
Hi,
Over the years i've built several editors (a paint app, MDI), 3d editor (SDI), etc. All of them are based on MFC. I've directly included my codebase files in C++.
Now i've grown fond of C#. It's awesome to work with. Logically i'd lik... |

Flash ad with sound

Hi,
i understand that you get at least part of your revenue from the banner ads, but could you please only use ones without sound. I would like to refrain from blocking flash.
The particular one i'm talking about is the vertical... |

I understand that you get ad revenue but could you please cut the ones with sound out? It's really obnoxious having a sound every time i go back to the forum overview (where i happened to... |

Hi,
Once upon a time when Unicode was no big thing i built a codebase which consisted of pure ansii/ascii functions. During a project i noticed i needed to work with Unicode so i created typedefs (utilizing the Windows define UNICODE) and changed... |

Problem with Direct3D triangle drawing
|
You're using D3DFVF_XYZRHW, this means pretransformed vertices. Primitives drawn with this vertex declaration are not put through the transformation pipeline anymore (hence pretransformed). If you want to have a 3d effect (as it sounds) you need to u... |

Should I create a new project?

In that case you probably have a bigger rewrite ahead.
It would probably be possible to hack MFC to allow for full screen (once you're outside of MFCs planned path you're fighting MFC more than anything) but I'd advise against it.
Most of your... |

Delete all objects in std::vector
|
If you delete ALL objects of the vector you might want to not erase every single object but do a clear after you deleted them:
std::vector<Object*>::iterator it( children.begin() );
while ( it != children.end() )
{
delete *it;
++it... |

You also need to add d3dx9.lib (note the x) to your project.
Hint: MSDN is awesome. If you encounter a missing external like this, look the offending identifier up in MSDN. At the bottom of the page the required header and library are listed under... |

2D wheel position
|
The other way would be to simply find the angle of the ball position to the wheel center and divide by ( 360 / 37 ). Or depending on your trigonometry functions ( 2 * PI ) / 37. |

Context Menu using TrackPopupMenuEx

You can't just cast anything to HMENU. If you have a menu resource you have to use LoadMenu to get its HMENU handle.

Is there any easy way to enable or disable a service by name

It's surprisingly simple really.
Use OpenService (or CreateService) to retrieve a handle to a service. Now call StartService or StopService. Note that the name you pass in is not the description provided by the services applet but a textual name.
