wondering what does it really mean by doing a test on the same register? I know

Rear mirror rendering, how?

Good day everyone, I have a way to do rear mirror rendering found in most
racing games, but I am not sure if this is the "right" way to go about it.

Good day gurus,
I have to admit I am an optimization freak who will do just about anything to
make my codes run fast. Okay I am still struggling with ASM because of my
limited knowledge on it, and VC compiler beats me at the fastest ASM... |

Good day everyone,
I have problem getting mip-map generated in my texture. The texture (mip-map level 0) is modified, but the level 1 mip-map seems to be empty (I could render the main texture with correct result). Here's the code:

Good day people, I'm here with a simple question. It's about texture alpha blending. For the color part, I can take it from texture factor, not a problem. But when comes to alpha channel, I want to use a grayscale BMP (8 bits) that I have.

WM_SIZE being called constantly

Hi there, you can detect for WM_EXITSIZEMOVE instead of WM_SIZE. WM_EXITSIZEMOVE, well as the name suggests only gets sent at the end of the sizing operation. Hope that helps.

gdi vs. gdi++

GDI is not efficient (good enough for simple 2D games though). GDI+ is natively built into Windows XP as part of the operating system, talks directly to the hardware device driver, so it should be faster on XP. The only time (that I know of... |

WCHAR wch[] = L"Hello";

ASSERT(12 == sizeof(wch)); // String siz... |
