check to see if a point lies on a line _segment_ without sqrt Hi! So right now to find the closest point on a line segment I project the vectors. Then to see if the point is outside the segment I do, c = C - A if (c^ = AB^) { if (|c| < |AB|) => lies inside segment else return B ...

2 climbing mechanics questions Hi! 1. When shimmying on ledges, how do you think the speed should vary? At the moment I imagine as you shuffle along the ledge. 2. If the player pulls themselves up the ledge how does the collider box move? If it moves up and then along,...

Camera collision avoidance algorithms Hi! At the moment I have implemented a third person camera that rotates around the player and tilts up and down. The camera follows player movement in and out, and always looks at the player much like in most third person games. :) My prelimina...

find closest point on 3D line from a point Hi! Given a 3D line segment expressed as a series of 3D points, how can I quickly find the nearest point on that line to a point?

Interpolating around a circle Hi! We have made a camera that linearly interpolates the position. This works fine, but when the camera starts to pan around the character then it will move in closer depending on the rotation speed. This is because if you imagine a rotati...

Pickup - your views? A lot of these simplistic views of "just be yourself" makes me laugh and is the worst advice to give anyone to do pickup. PU is not only just getting a girl attracted to you but also dealing with stuff like last minute resistance to sex and deal...

Pickup - your views? Quote:Original post by slayemin Quote:Original post by kevtimc @Genjix: Why the hell are you (literally) picking everybody up? ROFL!! It's called a "Pickup" for a reason! at last, somebody understands! :)

Pickup - your views? Oh yeah, and these were all girls I've never met before. For opening I usually use 80% canned material, the fluff talk is natural but repeated stories/one-liners and also the canned gimmicks (graphology, personality tests) and stories are invaluable.

Hitchhiking through the EU for a week... (Alone) I recommend you check out CouchSurfing.com. Here's a link to my profile if you travel past my part of the world :) It's very cheap way to travel- I've used it in 8 countries before with no problems. ciao

check to see if a point lies on a line _segment_ without sqrt aha, AB is the line segment C is the closest point ^ is for unit vectors

2d position on a 3d plane, from a 3d position. you can use matrices. multiply the inverse matrix of one by the transform matrix of the other to get the other's matrix transform relative to the first. Then you can get the pos/rot... whatever from this matrix. ciao!
