• How to make an object fly out of a slingshot?

  - by Deza

  At the moment I'm improvising a slingshot, the user can click and drag the projectile and let go. The force on the object is calculated by getting the distance between the vector of the slingshots two forks and the vector between where the user pulled it. However this will always result in a positive number and will not take into account the angle of the object relative to that of the slingshot. How can I make it fly out of the slingshot correctly?

• Knowledge of a Language vs. Games in Portfolio

  - by RedShft

  How important is the knowledge of a language versus the games that you have developed in your portfolio? To be more specific. Personally, I dislike C++ for several reason(mainly due to it's complexity, and pointers, and I prefer D as my language of choice thus far. Due to this, I've written two games in D instead of C++ that are my personal projects. Am I wasting my time with D? Should I start using C++ again? For reference, I have 6 months of experience in C++. It's the first language I learned. I have messed around with SDL/SFML and a bit of Direct3D with C++ as well. Even though I like D, i'd rather not waste my time learning it, if it in no way will help me get a job in the gaming industry.

• Where i set touch effect when a spawn Srite are comming on the screen?

  - by shihab_returns

  I just create a scene where create a spawn spirit that comes from above screen height in Landscape mode. Now i want to remove spirits when i touch on it. I tried but seems the code not works and crashed also after a while. here is my code: /** TimerHandler for collision detection and cleaning up */ IUpdateHandler detect = new IUpdateHandler() { @Override public void reset() { } @Override public void onUpdate(float pSecondsElapsed) { Iterator<AnimatedSprite> targets = targetLL.iterator(); AnimatedSprite _target; while (targets.hasNext()) { _target = targets.next(); if (_target.getY() >= cameraHeight) { // removeSprite(_target, targets); tPool.recyclePoolItem(_target); targets.remove(); Log.d("ok", "---------Looop Inside-----"); // fail(); break; } } targetLL.addAll(TargetsToBeAdded); TargetsToBeAdded.clear(); } }; /** adds a target at a random location and let it move along the y-axis */ public void addTarget() { Random rand = new Random(); int minX = mTargetTextureRegion.getWidth(); int maxX = (int) (mCamera.getWidth() - mTargetTextureRegion.getWidth()); int rangeX = maxX - minX; Log.d("----point----", "minX:" + minX + "maxX:" + maxX + "rangeX:" + rangeX); int rX = rand.nextInt(rangeX) + minX; int rY = (int) mCamera.getHeight() + mTargetTextureRegion.getHeight(); Log.d("---Random x----", "Random x" + rX + "Random y" + rY); target = tPool.obtainPoolItem(); target.setPosition(rX, rY); target.animate(100); mMainScene.attachChild(target, 1); mMainScene.registerTouchArea(target); int minDuration = 2; int maxDuration = 32; int rangeDuration = maxDuration - minDuration; int actualDuration = rand.nextInt(rangeDuration) + minDuration; // MoveXModifier mod = new MoveXModifier(actualDuration, target.getX(), // -target.getWidth()); MoveYModifier mody = new MoveYModifier(actualDuration, -target.getHeight(), cameraHeight + 10); target.registerEntityModifier(mody.deepCopy()); TargetsToBeAdded.add(target); } @Override public boolean onAreaTouched(final TouchEvent pSceneTouchEvent, final ITouchArea pTouchArea, final float pTouchAreaLocalX, final float pTouchAreaLocalY) { if (pTouchArea == target) { Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Yoooooooo", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show(); } return true; } ** My question is where i implements IOnAreaTouchListener in My code. ? ** Thanks in Advance.

• Inversion of control in Unity?

  - by user3206275

  I am semi-experienced .NET developer who has just began working with Unity. I am trying to decide on how to make IoC work in Unity 4.X ( I have not yet tested anything), and I wonder what are the good ways of achieving it. This post and its answers states that Ninject won't work with Unity, however it is old. Is it still true? If yes, what are other means of achieving IoC in Unity ? Edit 1 : I am targeting mainly Windows platform. So I don't need platform interoperability, I just need it to work.

• Rotating object around moving object/player in 2D

  - by Boston

  I am trying to implement a camera which rotates around the world around the player. I have found many solutions online to the task of rotating an object about the origin, or about an arbitrary point. The procedure seems to be to translate the point to be rotated about to the origin, perform the rotation, translate back, then draw. I have gotten this working for rotation around the origin as well as for a fixed point. Rotation of objects around the player works as well, provided the player does not move. However, if the objects are rotated around the player by some non-zero degree, if the player moves after the rotation it causes the rotated objects to move as well. I probably have done a poor job explaining this so here's an image: http://i.imgur.com/1n63iWR.gif And here's the code for the behavior: renderx = (Ox - Px)*cos(camAngle) - (Oy - Py)*sin(camAngle) + Px; rendery = (Ox - Px)*sin(camAngle) + (Oy - Py)*cos(camAngle) + Py; Where (Ox,Oy) is the actual position of the object to be rotated and (Px,Py) is the actual position of the player. Any ideas? I am using C++ with SDL2.0.

• Best way to get elapsed time in miliseconds in windows

  - by XaitormanX

  I'm trying to do it using two FILETIMEs, casting them to ULONGLONGs, substracting the ULONGLONGs, and dividing the result by 10000. But it's pretty slow, and I want to know if there is a better way to do it.I use c++ with visual studio 2008 express edition. This is what I'm using: FILETIME filetime,filetime2; GetSystemTimeAsFileTime(&filetime); Sleep(100); GetSystemTimeAsFileTime(&filetime2); ULONGLONG time1,time2; time1 = (((ULONGLONG) filetime.dwHighDateTime) << 32) + filetime.dwLowDateTime; time2 = (((ULONGLONG) filetime2.dwHighDateTime) << 32) + filetime2.dwLowDateTime; printf("ELAPSED TIME IN MS:%d",(int)((time2-time1)/10000));

• Limiting the speed of a dragged sprite in Cocos2dx

  - by Frozsht

  I am trying to drag a row of sprites using ccTouchesMoved. By that I mean that there is a row of sprites (they are colored squares) lined up next to each other and if I grab one with a touch the rest follow it. However, if the sprite that is selected by touch moves too fast it creates a slight gap between it and the following sprites. How do I go about limiting the speed that I can drag the sprite with ccTouchesMoved? This is the only solution I could think of to my problem. If anyone has another suggestion to prevent this sprite gap from happening I would appreciate it.

• How do you blend multiple colors in HSV (polar) color-space?

  - by Toxikman

  In RGB color space, you can do a weighted multiple-color blend by just doing: Start with R = G = B = 0. Then we perform a blend at index i using a set of colors C, and a set of normalized weights w like so: R += w[i] * C[i].r G += w[i] * C[i].g B += w[i] * C[i].b But I'd like to interpolate the colors in the HSV color-space instead, so that saturation and brightness are uniform across the interpolation. I know I can blend saturation and brightness in the same way as above, but the HUE component is an angle around a continuous circle, since HSV is essentially a polar coordinate system. Blending only two HSV colors makes sense to me, you just find the shortest arc around the circle and interpolate between the two hues. But when you attempt to blend more than 2 colors, it becomes a bit of a puzzle. You have to handle anomalous cases, like 4 equally-weighted colors with a hue at 0, 90, 180, and 270 degrees. They basically cancel each other out, so any hue will do. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.

• How to determine which thrusters to turn on to rotate the ship?

  - by migimunz

  The configuration of the ship changes dynamically, so I have to determine which thruster to turn on when I want to rotate the ship clockwise or counter clockwise. The thrusters are always axis aligned with the ship (never at an angle) and are either on or off. Here's one of the possible setups: What I've tried so far is to visualize the firing vector and the direction vector to the center of mass of the ship: Unfortunately, I didn't get very far with that.

• How do I get a collision event from a KActor subclass?

  - by Almo

  I have a subclass of KActor, and I want an event when it collides with things. event RigidBodyCollision seems to be what I want according to this http://wiki.beyondunreal.com/UE3:Actor_events_%28UDK%29#RigidBodyCollision Called when a PrimitiveComponent this Actor owns has: -bNotifyRigidBodyCollision set to true -ScriptRigidBodyCollisionThreshold greater than 0 -it is involved in a physics collision where the relative velocity exceeds ScriptRigidBodyCollisionThreshold As far as I can tell, I have these set up, and the event is not called for any collisions (KActor-KActor, KActor-world geometry, etc). Is there something else I need to do?

• does glBindAttribLocation silently ignore names not found in a shader?

  Does glBindAttribLocation silently ignore names that are not found? For example, in a shader: // Some vertex shader in vec3 position; in vec3 normal; // ... And in some set up code: // While setting up shader GLuint program = glCreateProgram(); glBindAttribLocation(program, 0, "position"); glBindAttribLocation(program, 1, "normal"); glBindAttribLocation(program, 2, "color"); // What about this one? glLinkProgram(program);

• How do you set the movement speed of a sprite?

  - by rphello101

  I'm using Slick 2D/Java to play around with graphics. Getting an image to move is easy: Input input = gc.getInput(); if(input.isKeyDown(sprite.up)){ sprite.y--; }else if (input.isKeyDown(sprite.down)){ sprite.y++; }else if (input.isKeyDown(sprite.left)){ sprite.x--; }else if (input.isKeyDown(sprite.right)){ sprite.x++; } However, this is called on every update, so if you hold up, the sprite moves to the edge of the screen in a few hundred milliseconds. Since coordinates are integers, I can't add less than 1 to slow the sprite down. I'm assuming I must have to implement a timer of some sort or something. Any advice?

• Z axis trouble with glTranslatef(...) - LWJGL

  Here is the code: private static boolean up = true , down = false , left = false , right = false, reset = false, in = false , out = false; public void start() { try { Display.setDisplayMode(new DisplayMode(800,600)); Display.create(); } catch (LWJGLException e) { e.printStackTrace(); System.exit(0); } GL11.glMatrixMode(GL11.GL_PROJECTION); GL11.glLoadIdentity(); GL11.glOrtho(0, 800, 0, 600, 0.00001f, 1000); GL11.glMatrixMode(GL11.GL_MODELVIEW); Keyboard.enableRepeatEvents(true); while (!Display.isCloseRequested()) { GL11.glClear(GL11.GL_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT); input(); if(up){ GL11.glTranslatef(0,0.1f,0); } if(down){ GL11.glTranslatef(0,-0.1f,0); } if(left){ GL11.glTranslatef(-0.1f,0,0); } if(right){ GL11.glTranslatef(0.1f,0,0); } if(in){ GL11.glTranslatef(0, 0, 1f); } if(out){ GL11.glTranslatef(0, 0, -1f); } if(reset){ GL11.glLoadIdentity(); } GL11.glBegin(GL11.GL_QUADS); GL11.glColor3f(255, 255, 255); GL11.glVertex3f(800/2, 600/2, 0); GL11.glVertex3f(800/2 + 200, 600/2, 0); GL11.glVertex3f(800/2 + 200, 600/2 + 200, 0); GL11.glVertex3f(800/2, 600/2 + 200, 0); GL11.glColor3f(0, 255, 0); GL11.glVertex3f(800/2, 600/2, 1); GL11.glVertex3f(800/2 + 200, 600/2, 1); GL11.glVertex3f(800/2 + 200, 600/2 + 200, 1); GL11.glVertex3f(800/2, 600/2 + 200, 1); GL11.glEnd(); Display.update(); } Display.destroy(); } public static void main(String[] argv){ new main().start(); } public void input(){ up = false; down = false; left = false; right = false; reset = false; in = false; out = false; if(Keyboard.isKeyDown(Keyboard.KEY_SPACE)){ reset = true; } if(Keyboard.isKeyDown(Keyboard.KEY_W)){ up = true; } if(Keyboard.isKeyDown(Keyboard.KEY_S)){ down = true; } if(Keyboard.isKeyDown(Keyboard.KEY_A)){ left = true; } if(Keyboard.isKeyDown(Keyboard.KEY_D)){ right = true; } if(Keyboard.isKeyDown(Keyboard.KEY_Q)){ in = true; } if(Keyboard.isKeyDown(Keyboard.KEY_E)){ out = true; } } As you can see I am creating 2 quads , a white one at z 0 and a green one at z 1. WASD keys function correctly. Also when I hit SPACEBAR the white quad is being shown. If I then press E , I can see the green quad. But if I press Q afterwards , I dont see the white one again!(Space Works everytime). Also if I render the green one at Z = -1 everything works perfectly BUT you may need up to 3 key presses Q/E to see the other quad. Why is that happening?

• Vector normalization gives very imprecise results

  - by Kipras

  When I normalize vectors I receive very strange results. The lengths of the normalized vectors range from 1.0 to almost 1.5. The functions are all written by me, but I just can't find a mistake in my algorithm. When I normalize I just divide all components of the vector by the vector's length. public double length(){ return Math.sqrt(x*x + y*y); } public void normalize(){ if(length() > 0){ x /= length(); y /= length(); } } Is this supposed to happen? I mean I can see the length ranging from 0.9 to 1.1 at worst, but this is just overwhelming. Cheers

• Are there any resources for motion-planning puzzle design?

  - by Salano Software

  Some background: I'm poking at a set of puzzles along the lines of Rush Hour/Sokoban/etc; for want of a better description, call them 'motion planning' puzzles - the player has to figure out the correct sequence of moves to achieve a particular configuration. (It's the sort of puzzle that's generically PSPACE-complete if that actually helps anyone's mental image). While I have a few straightforward 'building blocks' that I can use for puzzle crafting and I have a few basic examples put together, I'm trying to figure out how to avoid too much sameness over a large swath of these kinds of puzzles, and I'm also trying to figure out how to make puzzles that have more of a feel of logical solution than trial-and-error. Does anyone know of good resources out there for designing instances of this sort of puzzle once the core puzzle rules are in place? Most of what I've found on puzzle design only covers creating the puzzle rules, not building interesting puzzles out of a set of rules.

• Box2d contant speed before and after collision

  - by bobenko

  I want to make my body fly at constant speed, how to make it fly at constant speed before and after collision? I set restitution of my body to 1.0 but after some direct and powerful collisions my objects begins to slow, I want it to fly same speed as before. I heard this can be done by setting liner damping of the object, I think it can prevent only from fast flying objects not slow. Thanks in advance.

• If I project a sphere in 3D will it be a circle?

  - by yuumei

  Assuming I have infinite vertices to represent the sphere, if I project the sphere from any position/scale in 3D to 2D, will it be a circle? I know it will not be a circle on the screen, because of scaling and different resolutions. But do field of view and aspect ratio effect the results? Edit: Sorry yes, I am talking about perspective projection. Seems the answer is no then, perspective will distort the sphere. Thanks!

• using per pixel collision for an elastic response

  - by Codejoy

  I realize this might be open ended ended but curious if I just did some over kill... I had this http://create.msdn.com/en-US/education/catalog/tutorial/collision_2d_perpixel and i reworked it to work with my animation code in XNA and what not. It works well, but now I want to use this to decide if there was a collision and to have the items (characters) bounce off eachother elastically. Was the per pixel too much and I could of just used a bounding box ? (in fact would that of been preferred for what needs to be calculated in the response for an elastic collision?) Looking for guidance really.

• Why doesn't MoveBy work in this example?

  - by ufo

  I'd like to run an action on a sprite using the MoveBy action. After lots of attempts, I can't achieve the goal... I have issues with the MoveBy in 2 different projects, so maybe I'm missing something in the setup... But I can't figure what! The instruction is like this: this.platform1Sprite.runAction(cc.MoveBy.create(1, cc.p(200, 0))); I don't get any error, simply it doesn't work. platform1Sprite is a Sprite. But even with a LabelTTF it doesn't work: var MoveToAction = cc.MoveTo.create(2.5, cc.p(size.width / 2, size.height / 2)); this.creditLabel.runAction(MoveToAction); For this last snippet, you can view my complete code here: http://pastebin.com/fGbW4LLH

• Should I go with Android or Try Windows Phone 7?

  - by Omnion

  I already know C# and am familiar with XNA. So it would make sense to develop for the Windows Phone 7, but would it be worth while to learn Java, get familiar with Android, and instead develop for Android devices? Android has been around longer so it would probably have a larger user base. Is it really worth it to try to develop for one of the more popular mobile platforms. (Windows Phone 7 has been out for like a month?) I haven't tried either one yet though. I'm also going to buy a phone, so this decision would probably influence the phone that I buy. (to develop/test on)

• Toggle Fullscreen at Runtime

  - by sharethis

  Using the library GLFW, I can create a fullscreen window using this line of code. glfwOpenWindow(Width, Height, 8, 8, 8, 8, 24, 0, GLFW_FULLSCREEN); The line for creating a standard window looks like this. glfwOpenWindow(Width, Height, 8, 8, 8, 8, 24, 0, GLFW_WINDOW); What I want to do is letting the user switch between standard window and fullscreen by a keypress, let's say F11. It there a common practice of toggling fullscreen mode? What do I have to consider?

• How do I render from one render target to another?

  - by Chaotikmind

  I have two render targets: a fake backbuffer; a special render target where I do all my rendering. a light render target; where I render my light fx. I'm sure I'm rendering correctly on both. The problem arises when I overlay the light render target onto the fake backbuffer by drawing a quad covering it: DxEngine.DrawSprite(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, (float)DxEngine.GetWidth(), (float)DxEngine.GetHeight(), 0xFFFFFFFF, LightSurface->GetTexture()); Regardless of what's in the light target, nothing is rendered onto the other target. I tried clearing the light target with full-white or full-black, but still get nothing. Fake backbuffer created with Direct3dDev->CreateTexture(Width, Height, 1, D3DUSAGE_RENDERTARGET, D3DFMT_X8R8G8B8, D3DPOOL_DEFAULT, &Texture, nullptr); Light render target created with Direct3dDev->CreateTexture(Width, Height, 1, D3DUSAGE_RENDERTARGET, D3DFMT_A8R8G8B8, D3DPOOL_DEFAULT, &Texture, nullptr); I also tried to create both with D3DFMT_A8R8G8B8, again without difference. Both targets have the same width and height. Only the fixed pipeline is used DirectX setup for rendering : Direct3dDev->SetSamplerState(0, D3DSAMP_MINFILTER, D3DTEXF_LINEAR ); Direct3dDev->SetSamplerState(0, D3DSAMP_MAGFILTER, D3DTEXF_LINEAR ); Direct3dDev->SetSamplerState(0, D3DSAMP_MIPFILTER, D3DTEXF_NONE ); Direct3dDev->SetSamplerState(0, D3DSAMP_ADDRESSU, D3DTADDRESS_WRAP ); Direct3dDev->SetSamplerState(0, D3DSAMP_ADDRESSV, D3DTADDRESS_WRAP ); Direct3dDev->SetRenderState(D3DRS_CULLMODE, D3DCULL_NONE); Direct3dDev->SetRenderState(D3DRS_LIGHTING, false); Direct3dDev->SetRenderState(D3DRS_ZENABLE, D3DZB_TRUE); Direct3dDev->SetRenderState(D3DRS_ZWRITEENABLE,D3DZB_TRUE); Direct3dDev->SetRenderState(D3DRS_ZFUNC,D3DCMP_LESSEQUAL); Direct3dDev->SetRenderState(D3DRS_ALPHABLENDENABLE, true ); Direct3dDev->SetRenderState(D3DRS_ALPHAREF, 0x00000000ul); Direct3dDev->SetRenderState(D3DRS_ALPHATESTENABLE, true); Direct3dDev->SetRenderState(D3DRS_ALPHAFUNC,D3DCMP_GREATER); Direct3dDev->SetRenderState(D3DRS_SRCBLEND, D3DBLEND_SRCALPHA ); Direct3dDev->SetRenderState(D3DRS_DESTBLEND, D3DBLEND_INVSRCALPHA ); Direct3dDev->SetTextureStageState(0, D3DTSS_COLORARG1, D3DTA_TEXTURE); Direct3dDev->SetTextureStageState(0, D3DTSS_COLORARG2, D3DTA_DIFFUSE); Direct3dDev->SetTextureStageState(0, D3DTSS_COLOROP, D3DTOP_MODULATE); Direct3dDev->SetTextureStageState(0, D3DTSS_ALPHAARG1, D3DTA_TEXTURE); Direct3dDev->SetTextureStageState(0, D3DTSS_ALPHAARG2, D3DTA_DIFFUSE); Direct3dDev->SetTextureStageState(0, D3DTSS_ALPHAOP, D3DTOP_MODULATE); Direct3dDev->SetTextureStageState(0, D3DTSS_RESULTARG, D3DTA_CURRENT); Direct3dDev->SetTextureStageState(0, D3DTSS_TEXCOORDINDEX, D3DTSS_TCI_PASSTHRU); //ensure the first stage is not used for now Direct3dDev->SetTextureStageState(1, D3DTSS_COLOROP, D3DTOP_DISABLE); How can I do this right?
