General chat / Re: Microsoft 7

I'm using windows seven and I think it's great.  There are many great features, and many of the included programs are upgraded.
I'm actually writing this and browsing this page using the built in speech recognition.  It's more practical using the keyboard but this is more fun.  And hopefully the computer will learn the more I use it.  post

Blitz / Re: Pathfinding problem

« on: December 29, 2008 »

Fixed it
Instead of using blitz' for a.square=each square I manually kept track of the square before each square and then by getting the last square I can iterate through the list backwards.

Code: [Select]

Type Square
Field prvs.Square
End Type

o.Square=Last Square
While o<>Null


oo.Square=o
o=o\prvs
Delete oo
wend

Blitz / Pathfinding problem

« on: December 29, 2008 »

HI!
I'm making a pathfinding code. The problem is that it gets slower and slower the more I use it. I've isolated the slowdown to these lines of code, but I find nothing wrong with them. It gets so bad that it only manages 2000 iterations a second.
Edit: Fs() is an array

Code: [Select]

Const t0 =2^0
Const t1 =2^1
Const t2 =2^2
Const t3 =2^3
...
Const t20=2^20

Dim Fs(2^20-1)

Type Square
Field x,y
Field F
Field G
Field H
Field n
Field n2
Field Previous.Square
End Type


tmp=MilliSecs()
For o.Square=Each Square
p=t19+((o\F And t18) Shr 17-1) Shl 18
Fs(p)=0
p=p  +((o\F And t17) Shr 16-1) Shl 17
Fs(p)=0
p=p  +((o\F And t16) Shr 15-1) Shl 16
Fs(p)=0
p=p  +((o\F And t15) Shr 14-1) Shl 15
Fs(p)=0
p=p  +((o\F And t14) Shr 13-1) Shl 14
Fs(p)=0
p=p  +((o\F And t13) Shr 12-1) Shl 13
Fs(p)=0
p=p  +((o\F And t12) Shr 11-1) Shl 12
Fs(p)=0
p=p  +((o\F And t11) Shr 10-1) Shl 11

p=p  +((o\F And t10) Shr 9 -1) Shl 10
Fs(p)=0

Fs(p)=0

Are you running the program in fullscreen? If not windows might not update your window as often as you would like.

Hi!
Here is an effect that from the beginning was supposed to be a leaf, but i got off track and it changed allot.
It's a little slow, but its well worth it

I haven't got time to look at your code, but you could just crop the image after it's done, just ignore the first line of pixels?

« on: March 16, 2008 »

First exe works fine with dos box, and the second one runs as it should in vista.

Nice transitions, good blending.


in dosbox it lagged like hell though, probably because Dosbox stopped it from getting 100% cpu power, does anyone know how to fix that?

Useful links / Re: eC (eCere) new programming language with 2D and 3D built-in library

« on: February 26, 2008 »

Thx for your offer jerstlouis, but i got it working
First(dont know if this step is necessary) i installed a new candidate version of mingw under ECERE SDK\mingw.
Then I downloaded this http://dessent.net/tmp/gcc-vista-3.4.5-20060117-1.tar.gz and unpacked(with winrar) in the same folder... and it worked

I got the tip from this topic http://forums.ps2dev.org/viewtopic.php?p=55772#55772 over at ps3dev.org


Edit:
Tried some of the samples, both the chess and clock are good.

Edit2:
I installed the candidate version of mingw, not the ordinary version as i wrote first.

wops, meant uac, user account control, what vista has to limit application privileges.
Hope we find a solution because i really want to try this

Hi jerstlouis!
Looks really cool, so i had a go at it.
Unfortunately i had a few problems...
First i got this error when compiling helloworld.ec: "gcc: installation problem, cannot exec `cc1': No such file or directory     ".
But after moving cc1.exe to ECERE SDK\mingw\bin i get this error: "Fatal Error: child process terminated unexpectedly     "

I'm running vista 32 with vac turned off.
