LuaInterface and Coroutines
|
I've spent the last two days working on this and I've finally cobbled together a mediocre solution.
To start-off, I have 5 coroutine managing functions:
function SetupCoroutineTable()
coroutine_table = { };
end

[C++/DX9] Weird texture editing & render issue

I coded up some drawing routines for my Texture class, including a Layer class (it all wraps up creating an instance of IDirect3DSurface9, locking, setting/getting pixel data, and unlocking.) It all works fine...except if I try to use it during runti... |

Journal Email Notifications

I was wondering if we could get email notifications for replies to our journals. I'd much prefer that to refreshing the page every now and then.
Thanks! |

Simpler STL container enumeration

I was just wondering why nobody (that I can find) has written simpler STL container enumeration/iteration code. I've been writing some STL wrappers and came up with the following solution (similar to C#'s design) and it works really well and I don't... |

New image system for GDS entries

The GDS image system really distorts and screws up screenshots that are uploaded which can make the entry look less than good. Maybe we could use a system that is similar to the IOTD gallery (when the user clicks on an image it is opened, full s... |

Are Built-in Tutorials Good Design?
|
My main piece of advice: if you use it, make it skippable.
I like built in tutorials myself, but I hate getting stuck in them. The best solution I've seen is splitting the tutorials up and allowing the player to go through them in any order. |

Growing plants in games - examples you liked?
|
Rune Factory is a decent game. I haven't played very far into it, but it' kind of like Harvest Moon with more of an RPG-esque battle system. |

Drew, do you not realize that you're not allowed to have a life? I die a little every time you skip a week; I'm starting to run out of heart-pieces man!

TumbleStone

1) Using HTML anchors - TumbleStone.net
2) Link directly to the video - TumbleStone Gameplay Video 5
3) Add a description, even if it's just what you have in the description for the YouTube movie.

LuaInterface and Coroutines

I'm going to stick with this for now (don't let this put you off from posting though; I'm still more than interested in comments and suggestions.) It's not the best solution, but it's working really well and I want to move onto other stuff.

The big red rectangle is how the system handles exceptions thrown during the paint event.
Are you using MDX or SlimDX?
As stated, you don't want to create the Direct3D object and Device each paint event. Create them once in your Load event... |

Font sheets?

I generally use BMFont to generate sheets. They are not evenly spaced, but reading the files and setting up all the rendering is straightforward (and decent practice for a beginner).
I have to second this; BMFont is... |
