I've seen on Pure volume how people can post music and was wondering if anyone had any experience in working with musicians and/or artists (2D/3D) for putting any projects together.
Also, could anyone recommend any sites where we could look f... |

OOP = Object Obsessive Programming

I was wondering what other's universities are doing about the whole OOP paradigm. It seems like they're teaching us to ALWAYS attack a problem from that perspective. While this doesn't completely sound harmful, they don't ever give cases when proce... |

OO and Game Architecture Making the Puzzle Pieces Fit

Does anyone have suggestions of how the parts of a game are supposed to be separated (with an emphasis on OO... specifically C++)? I've done a few simple games (tetris in Java and then C++, asteroids), but my code design, as in what talks to an... |

I've used SDL with my MSVC++ version before for some small projects and didn't have any problems with it.
EDIT: I'm using MSVC++ 7
However, I downloaded whatever update there was for SDL and made a new project and for some bizarre reason it doe... |

Question for Christian Developers

Considering the post about the game Left Behind: Eternal Forces (since closed), I was wondering what Christian developers do now.
As a new(er) Christian (raised in Church, but went my own way), from what angle should we as game makers be taking &... |

Coder's Block

I've have a serious case of coder's block for the last 1-2 months. I just can't seem to get anything written (which is why I stopped trying for the last few weeks). Can anyone offer any suggestions?
EDIT: I thought I might need to clarify my sit... |

This thread is for those just coming out of and/or with previous relationship problems who have always found comfort in writing game dev. (At least until we try again soon...)

Text-only for 4E???

Would it be worth it to submit a text-based game to 4E? Other than getting the participation prize provided you don't get disqualified, would it be worth the embarassment (for those of us not using cutting-edge graphics technology like the rest of y... |

Grouping Unrelated Stuff in C++

I'm trying to make a system in a single player text based game where you would give an object (like a player) a script and any parameters. The problem is I don't know how to pass multiple unknown types as a group in C++.
Here's how I would do it... |

DirectX 9 or SDL and OpenGL
|
I like OpenGL because it is an API standard which can be used with a variety of bindings. For example, in C++ you can use OpenGL with GLUT, QT, or SDL for handling events and the windowing side, and keep your OpenGL code consistent between the windo... |

problem understanding why camera isnt working
|
Inside the drawCar() function you switch to modelview matrix and then load the identity. According to your comments you want to rotate the modelview matrix, which you're doing, except that call to loadIdentity() effectively erases it. |

Stretch a texture.

Try:
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_S, GL_REPEAT); // Repeat on X axis
glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D, GL_TEXTURE_WRAP_T, GL_CLAMP); // Stretch on Y axis
Then texture coordinates are clamped between 0 and 1 on the x ax... |

matrix rotate and transform vectors.

It looks like they're storing a rotation in the matrix and then transforming the vector by that matrix (by multiplying the vector by the matrix).
This is code in a project of mine which does essentially the same thing. Think of it as the vector b... |

My Matrix class. How well is it implemented?

You're off to a good start, but you need to add some direction to it. What will your matrix class be used for?
For example: I use my matrix with OpenGL,... so it uses a fixed size (4x4). OpenGL also uses a 4x4 column major ordering, so it o... |
