Re: Distributing SDL Projects With Visual Studio

Do you sent the .exe with the SDL.dll?
And keep in mind that Visual Studio uses a framework.

Re: What is the best antivirus software?

aamesxdavid is right! The problem with antivirus software is, that the companies cant keep up with the virus programmers. So they invented some sort of heuristic detection. But heuristic is soo useless - in most of the cases its just annoying and detects harmless programs. In some cases, antivirus s...

Re: (Collision Detection) Move Object 1 To Edge Of Object 2

The problem with briad-phase algorithms is, that I have no idea how to implement it. For example, say I'm using the quad tree method. I do know how to reduce the field beeing checked until each quad has a given size. ( btw. excellent articel on gamedev.net about quadtrees ) http://www.gamedev.net/re...

Re: Average Joe Sidescroller

Great game so far! But I've found a bug - when I run down the red ramp and walk of it - and immediately press the other direction when I'm off the ramp - the gravity gets wired, because if I jump after that, I just fly upwards. Question: What programming language are you using, and what libs are you...

Re: [GroundUpEngine] 3D Engine Progress

What are you using for the network part?
Do you use WinAPI, a lib or do you code it by hand?

Re: (Collision Detection) Move Object 1 To Edge Of Object 2

@Jake Separating Axis Theorem is imo pretty complicated - and is kind of expensive - as Falco mentioned before. So a better approach would be to combine different ways of collision detection. For example: It would be useless to check collision between Object A and Object B if Object A is at one corn...

Re: Language (script) enquiry

From what I've heard, Actionscript is pretty easy compared to other languages. But its still powerfull. My thoughts on C# and C++? C# uses a framework and it is from Microsoft. So you cant use it on Linux. C++ ( not Visual C++ ) has compilers for Windows,Linux and Mac - so you can use it on any OS. ...

Re: (Collision Detection) Move Object 1 To Edge Of Object 2

@GyroVorbis
How do you handle the collision today in Elysian Shadows?
What I've seen from your video is that youre using the separating axes theorem for the actual collision - but do you still loop through each element with each element?

I'm sure that someday there will be a Google Console...

Afaik it depends on the compiler, not on what you access with your code.
Correct me if i'm wrong.

Re: What projects are you currently working on?

It's coded in C++ with SDL. We're working on it since beginning of september and it goes pretty well for our first big SDL project. The game is called "PureMan" and it is about a guy traveling in space and killing bad guys. Unfortunately there is no real story planned. But who knows ;D It ...
