Elysian Shadows

You are going to write some kind of local app and are too much of a sissy to learn C++, use Python. PHP is probably the worst choice (especially considering that you recommended installing a local web server to use it).

I am reporting back with grand success. I still have much yet to learn, but I have become rather comfortable with Lua's virtual stack. The original C API seems to be the best for my needs. I actually hesitate to dig into any of the expanded libraries. Gyro, if you're still reading this, can you tell...

I'm pretty afraid of children at this point in my life. I think 30 is the perfect age (from my perspective). You've had time with your wife to live it up and spend all the money (god knows that's what Kendall is going to do). Now you can settle down and be a father. That's why it's good to stay clo...

Kids are vastly underrated. So many of you talk like they're some other species. Don't forget: you were all babies at one point.

My daughter is the best thing to ever happen to my family.

Are you calling move() on a dynamically allocated piece?

I'm not sure if there is a way to see if the window is moving, but you might be able to form a workaround using SDL_APPINPUTFOCUS.

Thanks, Gyro. I had no idea that the libraries were just "helpers". I would certainly love to implement my own binding. I am confident that I could; I just need to know where to start. Thanks for the detailed response. The simple question is: what do you want to do with Lua? Don't take it ...

I just conquered Syndicate.



It is my absolute favorite game. I hope to create my own inspired 3D remake someday.

I understand the C++/Lua relationship and how it should be applied, but I am very new to the process of integration. How did you learn? Are there good tutorials out there? I am looking for the actual implementation process. For instance, what library should I use to bind the two? Where in the game l...

I want Ocarina of Time recreated and enhanced with bonus material for Wii 2.

I want Final Fantasy 7 recreated and enhanced with bonus material for PS3.

I am an old married man.

I am working toward a career in game development. I use C++.

Hello, everyone!

You ought to learn XHTML/CSS before diving into PHP.
