Demo Squad

As you may have already guessed from the screenshots, it's a bomberman clone. The game supports up to four players (human, or computer-c... |

Am I using my delta-time incorrectly? (re: simple frame independant movement)
|
Adam Hamilton is correct. Instead of limiting the game's speed to 100hz, and moving your objects by a fixed amount, let your game loop run as fast as it can, and multiply your object's movement (in units per second) by the amount of time that has ela... |

simple RPG spell question
|
I would do it the way you are doing it -- each spell type is it's own class. Each player would have a spell handler (a SpellBook or something) that can have spells added to it.
So the object relationship topology would be: Player --(one to many)--... |

Large Terrain Creation?

[SDL] undefined reference to "WinMain@16"
|

static object

I would recommend reading up on them regardless, and trying them out for yourself. A little extra knowledge never hurts, and if you're planning on working professionally in the game industry, they *are* used at many studios. So even if you... |

Lottery as a business model?

Blending operations with multitexturing

Gotcha. I believe the GL_EXT_texture_env_combine extension is what you're looking for.
Here's the extension spec: http://www.berkelium.com/OpenGL/EXT/texture_env_combine.txt
