General chat / Re: It's been 10 years!

« on: February 12, 2011 »

Time flies, eh. 5 year mark for me, even though it feels just like yesterday when I registered . It's also interesting to look back how I was totally different person 5 years ago. I've never been that active on this forum, but it has still provided me with lots of lessons. Funny to think that I'm at this moment relearning stuff I learned here in a university course. We're learning how to fill up a polygon or how to calculate projections and stuff.

Lets see if we will have a 20 years anniversity .

C / C++ /C# / Re: [C++] attempt at opengl using C++.

« on: February 27, 2010 »

I'm not actually sure what the question is, but I simply used SDL and OpenGL. SDL provides some input functions and other helping stuff.

General chat / Re: Antivirus - Report your tests and experience

« on: March 19, 2009 »

Are you guys using a broken OS? My OS is not broken so it doesn't need slower programs like antivirus. I've been connected to the net for years and 0 virus so far. Oh, I use a linux based OS.

General chat / Re: DirectX 11

« on: March 19, 2009 »

One thing to note is that Windows XP works with DX10, but it was artifically restricted so that people would have to "downgrade" to crappy Vista. Also, DirectX is Microsoft only so it's a crap solution.

C / C++ /C# / Re: Console window on Linux/C++

« on: February 02, 2009 »

It's fixed now. Turns out an update to Geany breaks building projects, described here:

C / C++ /C# / Console window on Linux/C++

« on: February 02, 2009 »

Hi', I'm coding an OpenGL library using C++ in Ubuntu 8.10 and using the Geany IDE 0.14. If I run the program for terminal for example, cout is not printing anything to there.. I really need a console window to debug some stuff like FPS information while I'm running the program.

My compile argument is: (not sure if this is relevant..)
g++ -Wall -c "%f" -lSDL `sdl-config –cflags –libs` -lSDL_ttf -lSDL_gfx -lSDL_mixer -lGL -lGLU -lGLEW

General coding questions / Re: Point a quad towards camera

« on: December 30, 2007 »

Thanks, I'll look into that tomorrow. I'm on my first year at uni, and I *should* know that math.

edit: I used the point sprite extension, which saved me from all the math (and is faster).

General coding questions / Point a quad towards camera

« on: December 30, 2007 »

I have the camera at CamX,CamY and CamZ, and I need to calculate QX1,QY1,QZ1,QX2,QY2,QZ2,QX3,QY3,QZ3,QX4,QY4 and QZ1 for the quad at position QuadX,QuadY,QuadZ. The quad coordinates must be calculated so that the quad is facing the camera..

Any help or links? I'm not fan of 3D/trig math

General coding questions / Re: Are perfectly symmetrical circles impossible to create?

« on: December 26, 2007 »

Draw 90 degrees of the circle and then just mirror it.

General chat / Re: Spammers..

« on: November 27, 2006 »

Can't we have one of those text in images things you have to type in to stop automated sign-ups. I know the things are damn annoying, but they do work.

They're called CAPTCHAs.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captcha
Good idea.

Regarding whether the spammers make money spamming sites like this, sadly the answer is yes, they do.  Some idiots go for that kind of thing.  If someone sends 10million spam emails, even if 0.0001% of the people (1 in a million) answer it and pay money, then it's probably cost effective.  I'm pretty sure at least 0.0001% of the people *I* know are fuckwits.

They are too annoying. Atleast require them only when you are posting a link.
