Hi. I've been thinking about how to use Python as a way of programming conversations between the player and an NPC in an RPG game.
So what I'd like is the ability to write a .py file which corresponds to a conversation. When the player talks to an... |

Hi everyone,
I’m writing a 3d landscape engine (isn’t everyone? ) and I’m trying to decide how to make the landscape.
I’ve already decided on making the landscape myself, rather than randomly generating (using noise fu... |

Deleting objects

Just make an empty destructor.
class IModel
{
public:
virtual ~IModel() {}
...
};
class CSkyBox : public IModel
{
public:
virtual ~CSkyBox ();
...
};

getting GNUstep to work in Windows
|
I don't know anything about GNUstep, but I think I know what the problem is.
sh and csh are two different shells, with different syntax. The file extension is .csh, so I'm guessing it's meant to be sourced from csh. Try using csh as your shell. |

cross platform
|
It's probably syncing to the screen refresh. 17 ms is 60HZ, 60 frames per second. (1000/60=16.666)
Why are you trying to run your game at 1000 fps, anyway? That's way, way too high. |

Enums and classes

Because the enum is declared inside the class, you need to do:
player1.Playerpic playerpic = Player::none;

Finding the forward vector
|
This code hasn't been tested, but it should work.
Depending on your conventions, you may need to change it around slightly.
Vector3 CalcForward(Vector3 up, float yaw)
{
// The right vector will always be parallel to the xz-plane.

[C++] union - defenition & implementation

Unions are not a good solution to your problem.
Here's one fairly simple way to do what you want:

normal calculation
|
Quote:Original post by mother
To average the normals, simply add them all up and scale the result by 1/numNormals.
No. To "average" the normals, you add them and then normalize the result. Dividing by the number of vectors will not give you a unit... |

normal calculation
|
First you need to calculate each triangle's normal:
Vector CalcTriangleNormal(Vector p1, Vector p2, Vector p3)
{
Vector edge1 = v2 - v1;
Vector edge2 = v3 - v1;
Vector normal = CrossProduct(edge1, edge2);
return normal;
}
