Need some info to get started with network programming
|
Hello
I'm programming in C++ and want to start network programming. I have found enet is really good, but then I saw that it doesn't support Mac and I really need it to be cross platform. So I'm looking for a network library (doesn't really matter... |

Bin City is a 3D platform game I've been working on for about 9 months and I thought I could show it to you.
I developed it for the final project at high school and it is my first 3D project. Actually it is the first game I've finished.
It is... |

Floating point precision - collision detection

Hello,
Again, I have some problems with collision detection. It works ok, but due to floating point errors it isn't perfect at all.
The flawed collision function looks something like this:

How does your for loop look like?
|
Hi everyone,
I'd like to hear from you how you make your for loop and why you do it the way you do it. This may sound a bit strange, so let me explain.
I do the for loop almost always like this:
for( int i = 100; i >= 0; --i )
But rec... |

What to do on collision?! [solved]

First I'm going to explain what I have:
I have a map (3D..) and a player who moves around. The map is subdivided for collision detection using an octree. Until now I just checked if the bounding circle of the player collides with the map and if so... |

Disable Cursor

Hello,
I need to disable the mouse in a fullscreen application.
ShowCursor only hides the cursor, but I want to disable it entirely because you can still move the mouse to the upper right corner and click to close the window.

Simple Bended River

Need some info to get started with network programming
|
So how can I set up port forwarding? I think I've done that in the router settings (192.168.1.1). But what does that change? Can I connect now to this computer without using a public server? If yes how?
thanks |

I've already seen the FAQ but I still don't get it.
Isn't there a way that works regardless to firewall and nat and whatever to connect to a server. I don't want an extra hardware for the server, I want it to work on any computer.
For exam... |

Thanks flodihn
SDL_Net sounds good. But is it a good idea to use it without using SDL for graphics, sound etc?
And I know that 127.0.0.1 can't be used to connect to other computer but when I show the ipconfig my address is shown like 192.168.x.... |

I can't really help you but I have some things that might get you forward a bit.
First of I can say that my animations work in 3dsMax too but not in the directX viewer. There they also get deformed like yours.
I don't know XEN but when I implemen... |

Softening hard edges in 3DS Max

A fast way how you can do that is:
- Select all the edges of the object (in editable poly mode!)
- then do a chamfer (below extrude) with as many segments as you like. The more segments the smoother are the rounded edges
Some modifier would be... |
