Texture border performance on some ati cards
|
I'm writing a terrain rendering library that currently uses OpenGL as it's rendering api. I'm testing it on a Radeon x700 and a Radeon HD 4200 integrated chip. When I use texture borders(which eliminates some artifacts between adjacent tiles i... |

Appropriate locatation for user specific file in Windows
|
When I store user specific data in windows(Vista) I think the appropriate place to store saved games and such is C:\Users\Me\AppData\Local\MyProgram but I see a lot of programs using C:\Users\Me\MyProgram. Is there a reason some programs use C:\User... |

This is my second post of images for Aphelion: Phoenix Rising. We've been rounding up some media lately because we're entering into the Level Up 2009, Intel Visual Adrenaline Game Demo Challenge. Our entry is at

Aphelion: Phoenix Rising

These are screen shots from a 4X(explore, expand, exploit and exterminate) game in progress, Aphelion: Phoenix Rising. The game uses OpenGL for rendering and OpenAL for sound. My business parter and I have been working on it for longer than I... |

Combining read and write for io
|
I do a lot of reading and writing from files and streams. I was thinking, I could combine read and write into one function and it would reduce code and bugs. I was planning on first making a virtual class iostream like:

Game Content Pack utility

Hey all,
I notice a lot of post on gamedev.net about file formats, the problems of finding a good well documented file format. Half the formats available are years old and don't support skeletal animation and such. To be even pickier, I wan... |

Yet another OpenAL question with no place better to go
|
I’m running windows XP and have onboard audio through the nForce2 chip. The OpenAL demo doesn’t work and neither will my OpenAL program that worked on my old computer. I’ve downloaded what I think is the most recent vers... |

Yet Another Gimbal Lock Question
|
I can impliment quaternions, but will Gimbal Lock still occur if I build matrices from these quaternions and use matrix multiplication to add rotations? Is it the loss of precision when multiplying of matrices that causes Gimbal Lock? Thanks.

Texture border performance on some ati cards

In conclusion...
I tried NPOT textures but I had about a 20% drop in frame rates, which isn't horrible but I think instead of using the NPOT textures I'll try using 510x510 textures with a 1 pixel border(but not say I'm using a border) then modify... |

Architectural Demo
|
I think your demo looks great. The scene has a real global illumination feel to it. You said not to expect to much from the lighting so I'm not sure if you planned on changing some things, but I though the vertical/horizontal glow coming from... |

Null Pointer Exception?
|
When you make an array of objects in Java you still have to individually initialize the members of the array. Your array of strings should be ok because each element is assigned to a the string returned by nextLine. I don't see the inv array elemen... |

some DevIL and OpenGL texture questions
|
If the textures is showing up upside down it is probably because in DirectX the coordinate 0,0 is at the top left of the image and in OpenGL the coordinate 0,0 is at the bottom left of the image. I haven't used DevIL since they were known as OpenIL... |

One thing to check is to change
cout<<"data "<<data<<" vec "<<vec[i]<<endl;//this is not the same
to
cout<<"data "<<data<<" vec "<<vec[vec.size() - 1]<<endl;//this should be the same

Cg shader problem when switching to fullscreen
|
This is a wild guess but I wonder if the current working directory is changed somehow when those dialogs open... I'm curious if you have the same problem if you give the full path to the cg file. |

Raknet vs OpenTNL

I've used both these libraries, purchased an indie programmer license for TNL and will eventually buy one for RakNet. I started out on TNL a few years ago using it as the networking library for the turn based strategy game I'm working ... |

There will be a Beta at some point but probably not a demo, though it's not set in stone. Either way it will be a while before we're ready for either of those. I'll be posting screens when we have more of the game to show, and release updates o... |
