(Object Stacking) Simplistic 2D Physics Solver Problems Hello. I'm working on a game that uses a simple physics engine to simulate the movement of some (spherical, later maybe rectangular) 2D objects "inside" the screen, using an accelerometer to make them tumble about the (smallish, 240x320) scr...

Java / Allround Coder looking for a Project Name: Moritz Voss, age 29, Germany Project Preference: None, everyone can ask me. However, I will choose only one project and stick with it. The more realistic a project's chance of actual completion is, the more likely I'll be to joi...

TDD: Unit Testing in Games? Heyas! I am really trying hard to come up with a way to use Unit tests in games. In particular, how would you write a test that verifies that a certain object is on screen and displayed correctly? How do you unit test shader programs? ...

Adding Classes to Package java.lang (Solved: legal by language spec, illegal by EULA) Heyas! I can't find it in the spec, and eclipse seemingly lets me do it: Is it legal to declare a new class in java.lang or one of its subpackages? Specifically, I want to add a Class java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError to some of my binarie...

[solved] Need to Optimize: ICONST/BIPUSH TABLESWITCH [EDIT] Damn it! I was inadvertently using a very old version of proguard. In fact, Proguard 3.6 optimizes that kind of code away just fine! D'oh! and there I was, working with Jikes and Jode and Jshrink and all sorts of tools when I was using the rig...

Aspect Oriented Programming Could someone point me to a quick article that compares Aspect Oriented Programming to OOP? I can't seem to make out the difference from the various articles I've read, except for some stricter (style) rules, etc. I need this for myself and m...

java.lang.Error "100" (J2ME, class merger) Hi guys! I'm using proguard with the class merging patch to merge the classes in some of my J2ME projects. When instancing one of the merged classes (others might work fine, though), a few phones throw a java.lang.error. getMessage() me...

iPhone Quads Edges ZFight I believe what happens is that you have subpixel rendering turned on (it is by default, and it's a good thing), so when you scroll your images, parts of neighboring pixels "outside" your intended texture coordinates are filtered into the fragmen...

What to download? Simply go to www.netbeans.org, get Netbeans with mobility option. Go to java.sun.com an get the current JDK. Then, get a WTK (SDK), preferrably from the manufacturer of your handset. e.g. from developer.sonyericsson.com , forum.nokia.com, develope...

Symbian Game Development (*.sis) Usually, when a J2ME game is slow, the programmer didn't do it right. Especially when it's during one of your early tests. Yes, some phones like the RAZR V3 lack processing power; it's still more than enough to male a 2D car racing/stunt game...

which is better as of now? SIS or JAR games? Developing Symbian apps is immensely painful. Don't do it. There are also at least 10x as many phones out there that support JavaME compared to those that run Symbian. Additionally, almost all Symbian phones have somewhat decent JavaME support. ...

On device stack trace in J2ME Stack traces on devices would be a great thing to have, assuming they don't require too many changes to the source code per se. It's not THAT important in our everyday development work, but during porting, pretty much every project hits o...

Is it feasible to build Tile Base Game Engine using Java ? Quote:Original post by Shakedown With Java, yes. With javascript, no. Seconded. javascript doesn't have much to do with Java in the first place, anyway. In Java, it is very feasible. I've successfully done it a few times, and am curre...

Java Game Development - 2d and 3d I've been making Java games on cell phones for a living in the past 5 years now. Java games for phones come in three flavors. First, there's J2ME (recently dubbed JavaME), which is the most prominent type; however, its 2D capabilities are ver...

Two points and a point inside Quote:Original post by cordel I've read it. You mean maybe to substract each two dots (x1 and x2 ,y1 and y2) and somehow comapare it with (a,b) ? No, that wouldn't work. Just check whether x1 <= a <= x2 and y1 <= b <= y2 (after...

is this doable? It is NOT possible using standard WMA (JSR 120 & 205) for JavaME, unless you are dealing with special text messages on special ports (not the kind normal users send, those are restricted - you can send them using WMA, but cannot receive them in...
