Re: Wait Function

Since he doesn't want the rest of the program to freeze, I believed it was a matter of at least one second. If it's a matter of few milliseconds, the wait wouldn't matter much, unless things have to run really fast (a game or similar). I guess he could use GetTickCount() instead. That function retur...

Re: Is this a good idea? :L

Oh and btw I think SDL has a function to get the current video surface. Called SDL_GetVideoSurface(); I'm pretty sure. Oh and btw, why not use the initializer list? Or were you just rushing things S:? Yeah, I kinda rushed it :p I don't have much experience with OpenGL or other graphical libraries, ...

Re: My Character Sprite

It sure looks like a man. You got enough details to see that it shall represent, but I would like to see some shadows and highlights. It would create some depth.

Good work ;)

Re: Is this a good idea? :L

I would rather have a class for the window itself, where you have your buffer, screen with/height variables, and such things. There you could have your SDL_Quit() function as well, in the destructor. like: window.h class Window { public: Window(string mName, int mWidth, int mHeight, int mBpp); ~Wind...

Re: Is this a good idea? :L

A single class to initialize SDL? I don't understand why you would do that.
It's just a few lines to set up SDL. It's like adding a class that only adds two numbers together.

Sorry if I have misunderstood something. I just woke up.

Re: Wait Function

This is how I go about it. Works pretty well. #include <iostream> #include <time.h> using namespace std; bool myFunction(double mDiff); int main() { time_t lastTime, currentTime; // Creating our time trackers time(&lastTime); // Setting "lastTime" to the current time (the time the prog...

Input devices - Force feedback

Hi there, I am currently working on a 2 player game, which features joysticks. I am using SDL to get input, and everything is working smoothly. But as far as I know, SDL does not support force feedback (rumble etc). So my question is: Do I need an additional library to handle this, if so, which? Ple...

Re: [Question] 2D Tiled "on map" house

I mean no offense, but now each roof is allocated as a completely separate structure that must be iterated through. This kind of completely destroys the point of a tile-based engine. How do you handle collision on the roof? How does this roof at all fit in with the rest of a tile-based engine, cons...

Re: Starting on electrical projects

I've made some cool stuff with my Arduino. Made a tiny game on a 8x8 LED screen once. Had to tear that apart for another project >_<

Really wanna try making something with it again, sometime soon.

Re: Simple 2D RPG Engine

Really nice!

How did you learn implementing Lua, as nice as you have done there?
Youtube, a book, or a page on the web?

Re: TV Man - 2D sidescrolling platformer development

Looks awesome!
A debug console is really handy.

Looking forward to your new Youtube video :D

Edit: Oh, you uploaded the video right before I wrote this post.
I can see you are coming along with your progress. That's nice!

It looks much better now without the blockiness ^^

What's the point of that post? it's just a quote x)
