converting a quaternion to euler angles Hello I know that this subject's already been on the board, and I've tried using the equations posted in other posts as well as those that can be found here Euclidean space. As you can probably guess - I couldn't get them to work for me. ...

using DrawPrimitive and ID3DXEffect Hi What is the problem with the following code? ID3DXEffect* effect; IDirect3DVertexBuffer9* vb; /* effect & vb initialization code */ d3Device->SetStreamSource(0, m_vb, 0, sizeof(Vertex)); d3Device->SetVertexDeclaration(vertexD...

Spiral of Madness Hi This is my new game - Spiral of Madness. The game features: - dynamically created levels - simplisitc control model (you use only two keys - left & righ arrows) - innovative level exploration model - you can only move left or r...

implementing a decision tree Hi DISCLAIMER - I know the subject's been discussed like a million times - I have browsed through this and a number of other forums. But I failed to find an answer to the question that's bugging one hell out of me. I'm trying to make a gam...

asynchronous mover Hi Could you please help me understand how the following requirements could be fulfilled? 1.) I have a bunch of figures on my game map and I want to move them around. 2.) I only want to issue the movement order, and the figure will...

converting a quaternion to euler angles >> I'll go ahead and ask my usual question here: what do you need the Euler angles for? I want to make an editor where I can display the value of a quaternion in the form of Euler angles. >> Are you trying to get the output to equ...

using DrawPrimitive and ID3DXEffect The triangle doesn't get drawn at all! However when I disabled the effect and used the fixed pipeline by setting the matrices using the SetTransform methods, everything worked correctly. The vertex structure: struct Vertex { D3DXVECTOR3...

using DrawPrimitive and ID3DXEffect Thanks for the advice - tried checking them all - but it didn't help. The linesare drawn as if I wasn't using an effect at all - which would point to me using the pretransformed vertices as you mentioned, but I'm not. I've tried specifying FVF fl...

using DrawPrimitive and ID3DXEffect I tried using this: output.pos = mul(float4(inPos.x, inPos.y, inPos.z, 1), g_mWorldViewProjection); Didn't change anything :(

using DrawPrimitive and ID3DXEffect With that code, I get the following effect compilation error: "error X3014: incorrect number of arguments to numeric-type constructor"

using DrawPrimitive and ID3DXEffect The code is executed between the BeginScene/EndScene function calls, and Presented. The lines are drawn, but they don't react to the camera movement at all. I tried rendering the lines without the effect, just calling the SetTransform methods - ev...

Spiral of Madness Yup - you can only go left or right. The 'dead' areas are supposed to mislead you - those are the real traps - if you don't look ahead, you might end up in one. As for the unintuitive controls - the game lacks a tutorial (even a simp...

Spiral of Madness Hi Intel graphics chipset is the problem. I haven't had a chance to test the engine on it, and people who have it in their laptops report similar problems unfortunately. As soon as I lay my hands on the hardware with it, I'm gonna mak...

implementing a decision tree Hi Unfortunately none of the e-mails responds to my question. The question is: can a decision tree be iterated through one action at a time? Best regards, Paksas
