Re: I need some advice, please

Because this is an incredibly complicated and overwhelming hobby/interest/profession, one of the character traits you need to have to be a successful programmer is relentless determination. If you don't have this then it's best not wise to go into programming, it will destroy your self-esteem from a...

The music reminds me a lot of an awesome Swedish band called Fictional Me. I like their music a lot.

Re: Rush - YYZ

This is really cool. I love bass guitar sounds. There a song on Sonic Adventure that I've always loved. It has the most awesome funky bass sound. If you have some time, is there any chance of trying it? Afaik no one has tried a bass cover of it, but there are a few guitar ones. It would be awesome! ...

Re: SDL Animation

A method you could try is: say you have a sprite with six animations in a cycle and you want to animate them to go though that cycle every two seconds. You think to yourself: that's three of the frames in a second, which is 1000/3 = ~333ms. So you could set your animation function to wait until 333m...
