Blender 2.5 to XNA 4 - with animations
|
I tried to reply this to my earlier thread where I asked for help on this, but apparently it's been retired.
In case anyone else is having trouble exporting FBX animations from Blender 2.5 to XNA 4, I thought I'd share my process I scrounged... |

Multiple Blender animations in XNA
|
I'm currently using this modified FBX Blender exporter, and the standard skinned mesh sample. It works okay I guess (lots of little annoyances), but multiple animations ("actions" in Blender, "takes" in FBX) aren't working. It looks like the XNA impo... |

UDP Lobby server

Anyone know of a free hosting service that will let me handle UDP traffic? I have a very simple PHP script that, when requested by a client, listens for a few bytes of UDP data and saves it in a file or database, for retrieval by another PHP script.... |

August Burns Red - Constellations
|
Just downloaded this awesome album from August Burns Red, listening to it right now. Amazon is selling MP3 album downloads for five bucks here. Quite a steal.
Definitely recommend this to any game developers, especially if you like metal. After se... |

Resolve/C++
|
I'm currently taking CSE 221 at Ohio State, and they're teaching us Resolve/C++, which has been described as "C++, but more anal." It's transformed into valid C++ by a few header files with loads of #defines, plus a "Foundation" that serves as a sort... |

Continuous visibility sets
|
I believe Sweep and Prune does what you're talking about (taking advantage of continuity over time). But I'm not sure how well it will work in a "visibility" scenario. I think it's more for collision detection. |

Yes. Check out my game A3P done in Python, with the fantastic Panda3D engine. |

What do you listen to while programming?

Pandora One rocks for this! It was well worth the $30/yr for me.
In terms of what music, some good chill bands I enjoy for studying/programming/focusing are Miike Snow, Ratatat, Pogo (!), El Ten Eleven, Passion Pit, RJD2, and Vampire Weekend.... |

The opposition to abortion rights exposes all this conservative talk about "self-ownership" as empty rhetoric.
I'd just like to say this is wrong. Empty or not, their rhetoric is not invalidated by the fact that the... |

Trying to Create a Background where the user can click and drag and change the view
|
Correct. Dawoodoz is right.
Also, do the adjustment for each tile. The only reason I can think to copy the tiles to a texture is for performance, which shouldn't be a problem for you at all. |

|
You should be able to pass in position coordinates that are outside the viewable area; I believe they will just be clipped away. So you would create a coordinate that represents the viewer's position, and just subtract that from each sprite coordinat... |

Man how do these old IOTD threads keep popping up? Is it because no one else submitted an IOTD? |

Python "While"

Looks like you have an extra space before the "if event.type==KEYDOWN:" line. Also note that it's "event.type" not "even.type".
I don't know if your editor is doing the indentation for you, but I recommend going with normal tabs rather than four s... |

Do you want a deformable game world?

^^ I think that's the key to good deformation. The destruction/deformation in Bad Company 2 works so well because there are simple rules as to which weapons can destroy which things. Grenades can blow open small holes in just about anything, and if y... |

[Wanted] Keen Software House recruiting new game developers

This looks fantastic! If you don't mind my asking, could you explain a bit about how you handle the game world persistence? Is it all stored on a central server? If you have a lot of players (and it looks like you will!) it seems like a lot of d... |
