Intel 945G and Texture_Rectangles
|
So it looks like any of the Intel 945 chipsets (945G/945GM/... maybe 955 also) do not support NPOT textures and don't support ext_texture_rectangle.
My game can definitely run on this chipset and even get 60+ fps but I have to run my game in... |

Saving Classes/Structs/Objects C/C++
|
Well I am getting to the part where I need File I/O.. Almost everything is structured as a struct or a class, and I need to save this data to files and read in later etc.
The two methods that only exist seem to be:
1) Serialization
2) Sa... |

Currently i have input and game logic running at 50 fps, and the renderer at max fps.
Here is my dilema and it;s pissing me off. In the input section, I look for wha... |

Shaders vs Fixed Function

Right now im using Dot3 bump mapping for my game in opengl. I was wondering if I switched over to shaders to do my normal mapping instead. For example, do more video cards support that method than the fixed funtion pipeline dot3 bump mapping?
I no... |

Vectors, Vectors in Objects, Fragmention

Alright so I read this page from Game Programing Gems 2 and now i have a question.
So having contiguous items in memory because it is cache friendly, and having fragmentation is obviously bad, but usually vectors don't have that problem, esp if you... |

Display Lists/VBO/Point Sprites

Currently I'm using immediate mode for everything, all are rendered quads in my game. Since I'm in 2D ortho mode, the most quads I will ever draw will be about 5,000 on the scene at once.
I'm undecided if I should go ahead and switch ev... |

How can I apply an angular velocity in the direction of the keyboard?
|
if your movement is correct but your body is not rotating you have to apply a rotate command before you draw your body. depends on what api you are using and if it takes in radians or degrees etc.
quick example:
Angle=(atan2(x1-x2,y1-y2)... |

terribly slow function needs more efficient structure
|
try shrinking your grid and see if this helps. say max # of buckets in a grid can be around 10 or then try a max setting of 5. |

Saving Classes/Structs/Objects C/C++

Alright thanks, I'll try boost again and see if I can get it working.
Would boost::serialization be able to serialize a vector of my own data type, like a struct?
My other question is what's the industry standard for this? Maybe this question... |

I would recommend an easier method. In most situations, you know what ships should use what, so just set them to that kind of attack behavior.

Parallax Scrolling Issue

are you using directx or opengl. In opengl you just clamp the texture to the polygon so the seam goes away ie GL_CLAM_TO_EDGE
Also that is not a good way to get frame rate independant movement in a game, it's actually really poor, i made the same... |

Help - Should I move to VBOs?
|
Usually in 2D games, especially when drawing just quads etc, your bottle neck will be fill rate, not bandwidth of vertex data or anything of that sort. 10,000 polygons is nothing for a video card these days, so VBO probably wont help you. Maybe at 10... |
