Pathing with variable unit radius.

Hi there,
I've implemented A* path finding for my units and all my units block nodes within their radii. The nodes are not specifically grid aligned and are positioned in 3D and contain pointers to adjacent nodes. The problem arises when a unit pa... |

Vector elements corrupted after push_back.

Hi there,
My vector elements get corrupted after I call push_back() to another vector. The following code shows the problem:

vector<Waypoint*> vecWaypoints;
for(UINT j = 0; j < vecPaths.at(i).vecWaypoints.size(); j++)

Multiple animation instances with independent animations with one frame root.

Hi there,
Some time ago I implemented the skinned mesh example in my game for animated meshes and all was good. Now I want multiple instances of a mesh to use the same mesh data so I create only one frame root and clone the animation con... |

List iterator not incrementable

Hi, I have a little problem in my game which randomly pops up, so it seems. I get a Debug Assertion Failed error claiming that my list iterator is not incrementable. The call stack brings me to a simple piece of code:

Point x_0 represents an arbitrary point on the plane. I'm not sure the "trough the point" part is the correct thing to say, but the quo... |

C++'s floats not very good?

Construct 10 line vectors that form the star shape. For each of the 10 lines on the star roll a fixed or random amount of numbers between 0 and the length of the line and use the line vectors to calculate destination points for the sparks. You c... |

A portrayal of heroism

Quote:How would you go about designing such a game?
I'd say looking into how you can achieve point H6 with the goal G1 for an audience A1 is a good start. Shooters generally involve violence, combining H6, G1 and A1 is quite a challenge.

[D3D9,HLSL] Problem when using vertex Declaration
|
You could test it using a simple shader, don't know if that could cause such problems but I guess it's worth a try. Here's a very basic one from Nvidia:
float4x4 WorldViewProj;
float4 Color;
struct a2v {
float4 Position : POSITION; /... |

Storing Matrix and Vectors
|
You can overload the constructor like any other function:
class Mat2
{
public:
Mat2();
Mat2(float* array);
Mat2(float m0, float m1, float m2, float m3);
Mat2(Vec2 r0, Vec2 r1);
};

[D3D9,HLSL] Problem when using vertex Declaration
|
I'm new to this so I'm not sure about this, but shouldn't these be float4 instead?
vector position : POSITION0;
vector Color : COLOR0;
Output output = (Output)0; seems suspicious as well. |

Storing Matrix and Vectors

You can. Rows[n] is a member of type Vec2, the Vec2 class has an overloaded operator that allows you to get the protected x and y values. R... |
