PHP/Apache, script breaks permissions.

I was recently hired to write a simple PHP script for a client wishing to send out mailing lists to his fans.
It's a relatively simple script that uses the mail() function at it's core.
I fully tested the script on my own server and things w... |

I know the software is pretty deprecated and unsupported, but I still find it useful, and I'm sure there are others.

Impostors Perspective Error

I posted recently about impostor theory. I've made progress, but I am not yet satisfied.
Currently, I have my impostor system implemented almost flawlessly.
Creating the impostor billboard mesh works perfectly.

Impostor Theory (Rendering)
|
Hi. I am trying to implement dynamic 2D impostors (in 3D) as explained here: http://www.gamasutra.com/features/20060105/davis_01.shtml

gluUnProject() Question
|
(Note: I am using my own equivalent of the glu library for portability reasons; the function is pretty much exactly the same)
I am confused what the purpose of the "WinZ" parameter to gluUnProject(WinXYZ,...,ObjXYZ&,...) is?
As far as I know, t... |

Low-Poly Test Model

This is a low-poly test model I made not only to test my game engine with, but to also test my skills as a modeler - and also because I was bored. It's only my 3rd attempt at actually trying to make a model more detailed than just a few col... |

Accessing Lua identifier names from C/C++

Does anybody know if it's possible to access the identifier name strings of Lua5 variables from C/C++? I suspect it involves some sort of global table, but I can't figure it out and there seems to be no information on the topic.
To give you a... |

MySQL Optimization Question

I think DISTINCT works as advertised - not sure what went wrong.
Either way, I'm still having issues.
Here's the query:
(A) SELECT SQL_BIG_RESULT DISTINCT(listingID) FROM vamm_v1a1_listing_field_data
The above returns only 1 listingID,... |

I can read the blue on white/red fine.
It's the font & oblique style that's hard to read.
The busy background doesn't help either.
All you need to do is put a semi-transparent background color behind the text, change the font styl... |

Making a MMORPG: Mission Impossible?

My point of view: when you've exceled, both technically and artistically, to a point where you can ignore the opinions of great minds - only then are you ready for the true challenge.
