68000 assembler - how do I define the entry point?
|
Long time no see, GD.NET! I've been getting my hands dirty with 68000 assembler, and my weapon of choice is the Atari ST, using DevPac 3.1. I've got as far as being able to move some memory, change registers, handle pointers, jump around subroutines... |

It's either too loud or too quiet! Ideas needed for dynamic mixing techniques
|
Hi all,
I have a problem to solve: the overall mix of our game is way too loud. What seem like carefully balanced gunshots, ricochets, explosions, ambience tracks and music send the RMS meters through the roof when piled together in big fight scen... |

Visual C++ - determine size of object at design time?

Is there a way I can determine the size of a C++ class/struct at DESIGN time in Visual Studio, through the immediate window or other means?
It seems a trivial enough feature, and it's possible with C# and VB, but Google and MSDN have turned up not... |

Looking for an introduction to thread safety in C++

I've been Googling for a while, but having difficulty finding a simple introduction, or a list of "Dos and Don'ts" for writing thread-safe systems. All I can find are specialised docs for certain scenarios or people showing off their prized "thread-s... |

Abusing the 'this' keyword in C#

Just a quick question: I'm working through some Silverlight tutorials, and it's come to my attention many times from other C# tutorials that people seem to be uneccessarily using the 'this' keyword in places that would seem completely unneccesary.

You already have full game download pages with images and descriptions. I think a Flash arcade, created solely by GDNet me... |

My game - Defense Of The Fortress
|
I braved it (virtual machine, couldn't care less for its wellbeing!) and this looks really, really polished! Just one thing... my turrets don't shoot! They're within range of the enemies, but they're not firing, what do I do?
EDIT:
Ahh I got... |

random number generation based on time in HLSL
|
Why would you want to do that in HLSL? That's not really HLSL's job, you should pass in those kind of parameters to the shader if you need them.

Need help with code?

You need to 'seed' the random number generator before using it. Find some documentation for the srand() function to get you going.
EDIT: That'll teach me to skim read, I see you're already seeding! Have you tried stepping each line using your debu... |

Free MMORPG now open to all players!

Played and liked! You've got a great foundation for a game there.
A couple of suggestions to make it a little less tedious to get into:
- A very quick tutorial for the controls, I had to ask some other players how to get going
- Can't seem to... |

68000 assembler - how do I define the entry point?

All sorted - it seems the source file I have open at the time is the "main source file", according to the docs (someone kindly sent me an OCR of the DevPac manual). As long as the 'include' lines are correct, the assembler figures the rest out for it... |

I quite like its simplicity - you type, you build, you run, you debug. Doesn't do much else.
What's a linkloader, and how do I make one (or find out how to make one)?

Iterator crash.. what the hell am i doing wrong here?

You can't remove something from a list whilst iterating through it - when "it++" gets evaluated on the next loop, it won't exist!

Aah so it's dependent on the assembler itself? I'll see if I can find the docs, all I have is the installer floppy.
Here's what I have so far:
