Looking for Lode Runner addicts
|
I've been working on a new Lode Runner game for a little while now. Dramatically, I call it Lode Runner X. It's not the tenth one or anything, it just means I have no imagination. :p
Anyway, I'm looking to do a small amount of multipl... |

streaming mp3/wav files
|
I didn't see an audio forum (except for an artistic sharing one), so I hope it's alright to put this here.
I'm having a little trouble, performance-wise, with streaming mp3 files. (I'm using them as a background track to the game.) I'm usin... |

CB_DIR c/o combo box

All right, say I have a game where the levels are stored in .LEV files. So I sent a CB_DIR to my combo box attaching lparam of *.LEV, and it lists them fine and all. What I want to do is terminate the .LEV extension on the drop down selections... |

DrawPrimitive/vbuffers, terrible frame rate

D3D Overdraw and solutions

I have a depth/z buffer put in my D3D, and everything is fine except for the framerate. Let’s say I have four large squares (walls). They are all parralel, so if you’re looking at the one in front, you can’t see the other three.... |

Improve this blending function?

I’m working on a blending function that would be used to brighten or darken a surface.
iw is the width and ih is the height... of the surface.
ALPHA ranges from 0 to 256, or greater than 256 to brighten the surface.
The problem is that i... |

Eon Clash's PGD 2006 Entry needs Testers

I played through it for a little bit, and I thought it was alright. The thing that bothered me the most was the movement speed; it seems to take a pretty long time to get anywhere because the character moves pretty slowly. I don't think it was a fr... |

IID_IDirectDraw7 Help!!

I use DirectDraw7; this is the code I use to set it up:

DirectPlay
|
My opinion is that DirectPlay can be a little easier to use in-game, but Winsock is probably 10x easier to set up. Once you get a message system set up for Winsock, though, they're both equally easy.
I have not gotten good results from Direct... |

Stunt Playground v2.0

Cool. I'll only make one small suggestion. It seemed that the 'dirt trail' effect, where the tires kick up dust clouding your view... they seemed to really hurt my framerate at times (mostly on one of the jam-packed levels). Ma... |

2D Platformer with bumpmaps and shadows

Hi,
The screenshots look cool, but when I try to install it says I need to download the .NET framework. What does the installer need this for, out of curiosity? I haven't installed anything cutting-edge lately, so maybe that's why I've never run... |

Frob and Jnz86, I sent you each a link to try the game out (through PM). I knew there had to be some people on here that had played Lode Runner before, it's a classic. ;) |

Alright, I sent ya a link to download the game (through PM), LeChuck. Since it's still technically only 95% done, I don't want to make it totally public quite yet.
If anyone else wants to try out the multiplayer, just let me know. |

I thought I'd post a couple of screenshots of the game.
The game is pretty much done (aside from single player content), but I'd like to do some playtesting (it's working great, but I want to make sure things balance in a fun way). I've recen... |
