Hello,
I'm messing around with linked lists in "Nibbles" type game I'm making and I've run into a problem. I'm wanting to join two caterpillars together, in other words, concatenating one linked list to the end of another. My lists are set... |

Hi all,
I've recently began fiddling with HGE and I've run into a stumbling block. I'm learning how to display sprites and such using the resource system provided in the engine and when I finally come down to rendering a sprite, all I see is a wh... |

Hello,

Concept Inspiration and Motivation to Pursue It...

Hello,
When I played my first PC game, I knew that I wanted to write games as a profession. As of now, I'm doing mostly hobby and spare-time work on solo-projects that I think of.
The first problem I have is actually ironic. I started... |

Hello Everyone,
Over the past 3-4 weeks I've written, with the help of many of you, a functional side-view four player online shooter.
Me and my friends have been playing it and coming up with new ideas for it already.
I'm looking f... |

[SDL] - Artifacts resulting from minimizing and maximizing

Hello,
I've been working on my game for about 3 weeks now and I've finally got a working version of it up. It isn't finished yet, but will be soon.
My problem is that this is a 320x240 resolution game that runs in full-screen mode. When... |

Raknet Troubles

The best way for me to explain it is to just post my code and say what it's doing. I have no idea what's wrong.

{
packet = server->Receive();
PlayerInfo *info = (PlayerInfo*)packet;
if(info->... |

Weapon Class

Hey,
I'm writing my weapon class for my new game and I wanted to show you all my ideas and maybe get some input.
The idea is to build up a rocket launcher type weapon from the simplest and most defined up to the most general. So:

Linked Lists and Caterpillars

Thanks for bringing that comparison to view Agony, rating++. I never would have even tried that assuming that objects private members are exclusive to only that object. Thanks again, you've all been a lot of help.

What would you do given that you don't have public access to other's head. I know I could just make it public, but I'm looking for a harder way so I develop other algorithmic skills. Let's say that I only have a means of finding values at posi... |

HGE Question [SOLVED]
|
Figured it out,
Apparently if you're going to use resources you have to initialize the resource manager after you initialize hge itself... makes sense [duh]
Hope this helps someone a little smarter than me...

HGE Question [SOLVED]
|
Well, I thought that could have been it as well. But I have my stingray.jpeg image in the same directory as the resource file and executable. So I'm pretty sure that's not it, unless my syntax in the resource file is wrong.

Any free multiplayer voice over network library?
|
Doesnt' RakNet have support for this? "RakVoice?" I can't really say for sure, because I've never used this feature in RakNet.
If it worked, that'd be nice though, have your network and voice all done with one library.

Vague Question on Scroller Enemy Spawning...

Tell me what you think about this. I create a text file before hand that stores all the enemies' information (position, states, types) and then load them all during my Initialization cycle.

single + multiplayer game

@ErUs:
Could you elaborate a little more on what type of game you're making. It's hard for me to understand what you mean by single player when all I can think of in reference to multiplayer is a "Counter-Strike" type game.
Perhaps you... |

I just got the network portion of my game finished. I used RakNet, but the concepts still apply. Here's what I did:
First, when I was designing my game I decided that the actual game would be client only. This made it a bit easier to progr... |

I've thought about signing on with some other project that I might be interested in, and it's probably a good idea for me to do so regardless. But at the end of the day, if I designed a game that was addictive and fun to play, p... |
