Seamless hexagon textures
|
So I'm making a game with a regular hexagon map. Now the difficulty is in creating seamless tiles. With square tiles, I can make the tile in Photoshop, then use Offset to correct the edges, but I can't do the same with hexagons.
I was wondering... |

GLEW + GLUT = no luck
|
Okay so the below code compiles nicely, but when I uncomment the first line, then it doesn't. I'm using glut-3.7.6-bin.zip from http://www.xmission.com/~nate/glut.html and glew-1.5.5-win32.zip (Windows 32-bit) from http://glew.sourceforge.net/ and f... |

Arbitary Rule Changing
|
In many games, the rules are changed mid game.
The best example of this is Magic: The Gathering - the golden rule is if there's a conflict, then the card is right.
I'm wondering how to program this into a game.
Consider an RPG where you have equ... |

Programming Music
|
What do you listen to when your programming?
I find myself listening to stuff from rpgmp3.com, The Nerdy Show and LoadingReadyRun podcasts. Also I seem to like remixes.
Does music help you program, or does it hinder you.
I know if I have to t... |

Fluid Interactions with Rigid Bodies
|
I'm trying to make a puzzle game. I'm wondering how I'd firstly represent, and secondly draw fluids, in a realtime, interactive manner.
Think of you have a pool filled with water, and you have a U shaped bucket in it. As you add rocks to the buc... |

Sharing variables with external systems

While trying to get an external physics engine to work with my sandbox, I encountered a problem, which I can see that if I don't think about it now, I'm going to run into problems in the future.
I'm programming in Java, using Slick to draw, and th... |

Java Game Development

So I was working through some tutorials from www.cokeandcode.com , and I found out that some of the code had to be refactored. The code was from 2003, I was wondering, what's today's API for making 3d and 2d Java?
I want to start on the righ... |

Home Server
|
Hey all,
I've been wanting to buy my own server that I can keep in the corner, next to the router. Before I started looking for one, I'd thought I'd ask the experts.
What I want to get is something that I can play around on, and lear... |

Java Game Development - 2d and 3d

Hallo,
Okay, so I'm somewhat experienced with programming C/C++ and SDL/OpenGL.
After a course of Java in uni, which only covered a very small amount of actual programming, I decided to learn Java for myself, online. I have downloade... |

How to statically link GLEW using MinGW?

The above works for NetBeans, using MinGW. Someone else with more experience on Code:Blocks will have to help you out. |

Something like this:

glewInit();
if (!glewIsSupported("GL_VERSION_2_0")) {

Planning to Write an AI Article But-

Don't be discouraged,
Its hard to garner support before you've written anything. My suggestion is to write a short article (part 1), and see how people respond to it. They can give you writing advice that can improve your further work.

C++ for game development?

@ApochPiQ
Could you suggest a resource for learning these sorts of things? Preferably not experience or university. Most books I've found on the subject really don't cover the things you've mentioned. |

Arbitary Rule Changing

Thanks for the ideas Atrix256. I was actually taking more from a code design point of view.
So you're suggesting something like this, Konfusius:
[SOURCE]
class Action {
Execute();
}
class Buff {
Modify(Action);
}
class Actor... |

Fluid Interactions with Rigid Bodies

Thanks for your reply Relfos.
I'm working in 2d now, but I'm interested in how you'd make it work in 3d.
Should I just model the fluid as heaps of rigid circles? That doesn't feel right... I saw this (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1xiVyJ3EOM)... |

Java Game Dev Help!
|
I found these: http://www.cokeandcode.com/tutorials to be quite informative.
And have a look here: http://java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/ for java tutorials.
But as many will tell you, don't make a game engine, make games! |
