Re: Minecraft remake- Crafter

That looks wondeful! :D

It's funny 'cause not long ago I was looking up some minecraft fangames but they all were just some crappy 2D remakes in gamemaker. :roll:

Be sure to keep us updated.

Re: Can someone please explain to me...

Thank you all kindly. :) I did take a while off programming but first I'm going to attempt to make some smaller games (platformers and such) and then I'll learn some sockets! All I really need to learn really to make a smaller game is just to learn a bit more on object oriented design then I'm all s...

Re: Can someone please explain to me...

i would suggest looking at generic tutorials for networked server/client programs. the language or commands you send between your client and server are the only things different from how IRC or WoW networking works. I mean they do some special things to make the data travel best in the smallest pac...

Re: Can someone please explain to me...

Re: Can someone please explain to me...

Thank you both kindly. :) So, for instance, the application is the client, and when you login into a game like WOW(I have never played WOW) you are inputting your password and what not into the application in which the built in client sends that information to the server(which is another application...

Can someone please explain to me...

It's a couple of questions that I just can't get my head around... I'm getting into learning networking and I don't know how the client/server model applies to games like Runescape or WOW for instance. Is the engine the actual client? And what about the server, is that like another seperate applicat...

Re: Which Screen Capture Software?

Hey thanks guys! I checked out camstudio but it doesnt really run at a decent framerate when I run my game... I also checked out hypercam and I think that one is my best bet as it runs at a decent framerate, and very smooth compared to camstudio. I'm going to finish of my little pong game then uploa...

Which Screen Capture Software?

Hi. :)

I'm back, and I have just one question to ask and it is the following...

Which FREE screen capture software do you recommend for me to record my projects as I don't know which one will record the best with the least choppiest framerate on my Intel 4 Mobile Express GPU.

Thanks. :)

These videos are very nice.

I've just finished watching your engine video and I found it damn interested to say the least.

I'm hoping you do some more.

This may not mean much but you sir have earned yourself a subscriber. ;)

Re: Collision detection, how is it done? (SFML, if that matters)

The most basic form of collision is using bounding boxes... Basically you just want to check if two rectangles are intersecting. Let's say you have a Rectangle struct/class... It has 4 attributes; the x position, y position, the width and the height . You could then create a boolean isColliding() fu...
