Re: Question about functions

This is probably what you need, but I'm not sure what exactly you're trying to do here. You might be approaching the problem the wrong way, but if you really want to use a function as an argument to another function take a look at this: http://www.learncpp.com/cpp-tutorial/78 ... -pointers/

Re: New Youtube

The new layout is real, but the TEXTp is obviously an April Fools joke. It IS pretty cool though.

Re: Creating Original Music for your Games

For audio recording/MIDI sequencing, I'd recommend Cockos Reaper. http://www.cockos.com/reaper Haha, this was made for Rock Band. You mean, as in "it's perfect for Rock Band"? Because it certainly wasn't made for Rock Band, it's been around for years. It's also a great program and my DAW ...

Re: Rush - XYZ

It's definitely YYZ, it's the airport code for Toronto and the phrase "YYZ" in morse code makes several appearances throughout the song IIRC. Also, for the bass part, maybe this will help?

Re: C# Question: XNA or SDL.NET?

If you just want 2D, take a look at Gorgon. It's pretty cool. You'll probably also be able to get some 3D in there using SlimDX pretty easily, though I haven't tried. As for sound, I like BASS. It's also pretty cool. It plays and does lots of stuff (especially with the plugins) and doesn't afraid of...

Fuck, I wish there were more questions like this on Stack Overflow. Let's first solve the problem before getting to the code. 200 chests, 200 pirates. First pirate opens all. Second changes position of every second chest. Third changes position of every third chest. Which could also be read as: 200 ...

Re: How much C++ should you know before attempting an API?

Or a slightly more simple explanation... Let's say you have a game, with " enemies " in it. Every type of enemy looks different, so each one has their own " sprite ". Now, what if you have a lot of one type of enemy , let's say about one hundred. You'd also have one hundred sprit...

Re: Official "Hello, World! (I'm new!)" thread

So yeah, hi. I make games, I guess. I don't actually FINISH games, because I just always fail to keep my attention to one thing. Now that I think about it, I don't think I've ever really finished a game. I guess I'm just more of a theoretical learner. Also if you're really interested in programming ...
