Communication between programs
|
What is the best way to communicate between two separate programs? My situation is that I have a program running that has my main class (that handles everything). I also have an ActiveX control that can be loaded externally and will send messages (... |

Deferred Shading and Depth Reconstruction
|
Sadly, it seems like a lot of the threads on this are old, so I opted to open a new topic about it. I'm working on deferred rendering currently, and I wanted to be able to use the trick to get position from the depth value. I had this wor... |

Rotating Billboard Sprites

I'm working on (once again) implementing a particle system into my engine, but am having difficulty trying to rotate the sprites. Currently, I'm using a GPU method of offsetting the vertex positions. I have an array of particles with a positio... |

Removing pinned shortcuts from the Start menu

My title pretty much says it all, how do I remove a pinned shortcut from the Start menu (on XP and Vista)? I know I need to use the IShellBlah classes, IStartMenuPinnedList in particular (which is only available in the Vista Platform SDK), but... |

Transformation Matrix

I'm working on a water effect pixel shader, but I'm make it so that it is less refracted depending on the depth of the water (so water at the shore doesn't refract much so that the image lines up with the true render of the scene). The pro... |

Browser Window Classes

Does anyone know of any repository of the class names (or general info that includes the class name) for browser windows? I am working on code to detect if a browser is currently open, doing so by looking over all open windows and checking for... |

Distortion Effects

I'm trying to setup a refrected material type of effect (a glass effect basically), but having a bit of trouble. I've found plenty of information online about using cubemaps and such, but I am trying to do this all as a post processing effect.

CW/CCW ordering of points in a polygon (SOLVED)
|
If I have a set of points that I know make up a polygon, how can I sort them into CW/CCW order? My case is that I have a set of points from a 3D editor, I know they represent a single polygon (all lay on the same plane), but the order of the po... |

User Defined Clip Planes

I have another thread on the Graphics forum, but I wanted to find out specifically about how user defined clip planes work in Direct3D (not just clipping mirrors in particular, which is what my other thread is about).
This is all in clip spac... |

Wunderwerk Engine - Backyard Demo
|
There seems to be an issue with the texture switching, nothing is getting the right texture assigned to it, especially the dynamic objects (barrels and crates). They randomly switch to different textures as I move around. |

GDNet at the Movies: So, just how bad was Watchmen?

They also didn't explain his mask in the movie, but did in the comic, which I kind of found interesting. It's not exactly a necessary part of the comic, but without at least a brief explanation, it does make it seem odd.
Overall I liked the movie... |

My only complaint is what they did with Dent, I really wish they could make him the Villain in the third one (though, as with all comic-dom, it is still possible). Great movie, seriously, it easily takes place as one of my all time fa... |

George Carlin Dead

The funniest skit he ever did was ragging on guys named Todd for 10 minutes (I happen to be named Todd, btw). :D Loved that show, wish I had been able to see him live. |

Sorry, I was typing quickly and missed an N, but have you ever tried an Irish Car Bomb? The only thing that can make a Guinness better is more Irish! :D |

You can always try bombs, Irish Car Bombs are quite nice. It's a half glass of Guiness and a shot of equal parts Irish Whiskey and Baileys Irish Cream, it has a bit of a chocolate milk flavor to it, but you have to down it after you drop the shot.... |
