• C++ unmanaged inside winform

  - by Gosso

  First: I am using C# and C++ on windows 7. I have created a basic rendering engine in c++ with directx 10. It works good as a stand alone application. But, when I sending the Form.Handle of a WinForm I want to render inside to the engine it crashes during D3D10CreateDeviceAndSwapChain with the following error: HRESULT: 0x887a0001 (2289696769) Name: DXGI_ERROR_INVALID_CALL I get the handle from the winform during loading of the form. unsafe { void *ptr=m_view.Handle.ToPointer(); uint v = (uint)ptr; lhandle = v.ToString(); };

• 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?

  - by rwols

  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);

• 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.

• 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.

• 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.

• EXC_BAD_ACCESS error when box2d joint is destroyed

  - by colilo

  When I destroy the weldJoint in the update method (see below) I get an EXC_BAD_ACCESS error pointing to the line world->DestroyJoint(weldJoint); in the update method below: -(void) update: (ccTime) dt { int32 velocityIterations = 8; int32 positionIterations = 1; // Instruct the world to perform a single step of simulation. It is // generally best to keep the time step and iterations fixed. world->Step(dt, velocityIterations, positionIterations); // using the iterator pos over the set std::set<BodyPair *>::iterator pos; for(pos = bodiesForJoints.begin(); pos != bodiesForJoints.end(); ++pos) { b2WeldJointDef weldJointDef; BodyPair *bodyPair = *pos; b2Body *bodyA = bodyPair->bodyA; b2Body *bodyB = bodyPair->bodyB; weldJointDef.Initialize(bodyA, bodyB, bodyA->GetWorldCenter()); weldJointDef.collideConnected = false; weldJoint = (b2WeldJoint*) world->CreateJoint(&weldJointDef); // Free the structure we allocated earlier. free(bodyPair); // Remove the entry from the set. bodiesForJoints.erase(pos); } for(b2Body *b = world->GetBodyList(); b; b=b->GetNext()) { if (b->GetUserData() != NULL) { CCSprite *mainSprite = (CCSprite*)b->GetUserData(); if (mainSprite.tag == 1) { mainSprite.position = CGPointMake( b->GetPosition().x * PTM_RATIO, b->GetPosition().y * PTM_RATIO); CGPoint mainSpritePosition = mainSprite.position; if (mainSprite.isMoved) { world->DestroyJoint(weldJoint); } } } } } In the HelloWorldLayer.h I set the weldJoint with the assign property. Am I destroying the joint in the wrong way? I would really appreciate any help. Thanks

• 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!

• 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?

• 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)

• 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?

• 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

• have a problem with my 2nd quad bottom left vertex position ? weirdd

  - by RubyKing

  Hey all I'm just trying to add another quad to my frustum and when doing so I get this weird little error. What happens is the bottom left side of my quad seems to stick to the center point for no apparent reason that I can think of and or figure out from. has anyone else experienced this issue and knows a solution or would you like more information please do ask. here is my main.cpp file http://pastebin.com/g9q8uAsd I think its because of 2 different quad vertex array data is in the same array.

• Fourth texture = segmentation fault

  - by Robin92

  I keep on getting segmentation fault each time I load fourth texture - what type of texture, I mean filename, does not matter. I checked value of GL_TEXTURES_STACK_SIZE which turned out to be 10 so quite more than 4, isn't it? Here're code fragments: funciton to load texture from png static GLuint gl_loadTexture(const char filename[]) { static int iTexNum = 1; GLuint texture = 0; img_s *img = NULL; img = img_loadPNG(filename); if (img) { glGenTextures(iTexNum++, &texture); glBindTexture(GL_TEXTURE_2D, texture); glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D,GL_TEXTURE_MIN_FILTER,GL_LINEAR); glTexParameteri(GL_TEXTURE_2D,GL_TEXTURE_MAG_FILTER,GL_LINEAR); glTexImage2D(GL_TEXTURE_2D, 0, img->iGlFormat, img->uiWidth, img->uiHeight, 0, img->iGlFormat, GL_UNSIGNED_BYTE, img->p_ubaData); img_free(img); //it may cause errors on windows } else printf("Error: loading texture '%s' failed!\n", filename); return texture; } actual loading static GLuint textures[4]; static void gl_init() { (...) //setting up OpenGL /* loading textures */ textures[0] = gl_loadTexture("images/background.png"); textures[1] = gl_loadTexture("images/spaceship.png"); textures[2] = gl_loadTexture("images/asteroid.png"); textures[3] = gl_loadTexture("images/asteroid2.png"); //this is causing SegFault no matter which file I load! } Any ideas? Problem is present on both Linux and Windows.

• Simulating water droplets on a window

  - by skyuzo

  How do I simulate water droplets realistically falling, gathering, and flowing down a window? For example, see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4jaGyv0KRPw. In particular, I want to simulate how smaller droplets merge together to form larger droplets that have enough weight to oppose the surface tension and flow downward, leaving a trail of water. I'm aware of fluid simulation, but how would it be applied in this situation?

• Android - Unity3D: setVisibility(View.VISIBLE) crashes

  - by Kazoeja

  I have a unity project and I use a Android (java) plugin to get camera data. I draw this on a TextureView. I want to hide/show this view when I press a button in unity. But my app crashes when I setVisibility onCreate UnityPlayer.currentActivity.addContentView(texView, new FrameLayout.LayoutParams(400, 400)); java: public void HideVideo() { //Hide view _TextureView.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE); } Is there an extra function I need to call, or may I only call it on certain times? None of these thins work, they all make my app crash. _TextureView.setVisibility(View.INVISIBLE); _TextureView.setActivated(false); _TextureView.setAlpha(0); _TextureView.setTranslationY(-1000);

• Is there a prohibition against scaling collision shapes at runtime?

  - by Almo

  So, I have a StaticMeshComponent attached to an Actor: Begin Object Class=StaticMeshComponent Name=StaticMeshComponentObject StaticMesh=StaticMesh'QF_Art_Powers.Mesh.GP_ForcePush' CollideActors=true BlockActors=false //Scale3D=(X=5, Y=1.5, Z=3) // ALMODEBUG End Object CollisionComponent=StaticMeshComponentObject Components.Add(StaticMeshComponentObject) Ordinarily, the actor gets spawned, anything touching it gets bumped, and the actor despawns itself. If I set the Scale3D as a default property, everything works as I expect. But I want to scale it at runtime, like this: function SetImpulseComponentTemplate(QuadForceBoxImpulseComponent Value) { Local Vector ScaleVec; ScaleVec.X = Value.Length; ScaleVec.Y = Value.Width; ScaleVec.Z = Value.Height; CollisionComponent.SetScale3D(ScaleVec); } When I do this, the thing only collides as if it were not scaled. If I leave the actor spawned so I can see it, it is scaled. If I also "show collision", the collision displays correctly as well. Is there a prohibition against scaling collision shapes at runtime?

• rigidbody2d.Addforce( ) behaves wieirdly unity 4.3 [on hold]

  - by Lilz Votca Love

  So guys ive edited the question and here is what my problem is i have a player which has a rigidbody2d attached to it.my player is able to doublejump in the air nicely and stick to walls when colliding with them and slowly slides to the ground.All movement is handle through physics and no transform manipulations.here i did something similar to this in the FixedUpdate of my player. void FixedUpdate() { if(wall && Input.GetButtonDown("Jump")) { if(facingright)//player is facing the left side of the wall { rigidbody2D.Addforce(new vector2(-1f,2f)*jumpforce); /*Now the player should jump backwards following this directional vector and should follow a smooth curve which in this part works well*/ } else { rigidbody2D.Addforce(new vector2(1f,2f)*jumpforce); /*Now this is where everything gets complicated as you should have noticed this is the same directional vector only the opposite x axis value and the same amount of force is used but it behaves like the red curve in the picture below*/ } } } bad behaviour and vector in red .I tested the same thing(both addforce methods) for a simple jump and they exactly behave like mentionned above in the picture.so here is my problem.Jumping diagonally forward with rigidbody2d.addforce() do not have the same impact,do not follow the same curve as jumping the opposite direction with the same exact amount of force.if i could fix this or get past this i could implement a walljump system like a ninja jumping in zigzag between two opposite wall to climb them.Any ideas or alternatives?

• fast 3d point -> cuboid volume intersection test

  - by user1130477

  Im trying to test whether a point lies within a 3d volume defined by 8 points. I know I can use the plane equation to check that the signed distance is always -1 for all 6 sides, but does anyone know of a faster way or could point me to some code? Thanks EDIT: I should add that ideally the test would produce 3 linear interpolation parameters which would lie in the range 0..1 to indicate that the point is within the volume for each axis (since I will have to calculate these later if the point is found to be in the volume)

Below is an example scenario. The ground (BSP Brush) is covered in a stone material The player hits a trigger. A new "moss" material is applied to the brush, removing the old stone material. Any assistance you could offer would be greatly appreciated.

• Java single Array best choice for accessing pixels for manipulation?

  - by Petrol

  I am just watching this tutorial https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HwUnMy_pR6A and the guy (who seems to be pretty competent) is using a single array to store and access the pixels of his to-be-rendered image. I was wondering if this really is the best way to do this. The alternative of Multi-Array does have one pointer more, but Arrays do have an O(1) for accessing each index and calculating the index in a single array seems to take one addition and one multiplication operation per pixel. And if Multi-Arrays really are bad, can't you use something with Hashing to avoid those addition and multiplication operations? EDIT: here is his code... public class Screen { private int width, height; public int[] pixels; public Screen(int width, int height) { this.width = width; this.height = height; // creating array the size of one index/int for every pixel // single array has better performance than multi-array pixels = new int[width * height]; } public void render() { for (int y = 0; y < height; y++) { for (int x = 0; x < width; x++) { pixels[x + y * width] = 0xff00ff; } } } }

• Multiple passes in direct3d10

As input I have a triangle(that stored in vb/ib) and effect file: //some vertex shader and globals goes there. skip them to preserve simplicity float4 ColorPixelShader(PixelInputType input) : SV_Target { return float4(1,0,0,0); } float4 ColorPixelShader1(PixelInputType input) : SV_Target { return float4(0,1,0,0); } technique10 ColorTechnique { pass pass0 { SetVertexShader(CompileShader(vs_4_0, ColorVertexShader())); SetPixelShader(CompileShader(ps_4_0, ColorPixelShader())); SetGeometryShader(NULL); } pass pass1 { SetVertexShader(CompileShader(vs_4_0, ColorVertexShader())); SetPixelShader(CompileShader(ps_4_0, ColorPixelShader1())); SetGeometryShader(NULL); } } And some render code: pass1->Apply(0); device->DrawIndexed(indexCount, 0, 0); pass2->Apply(0); device->DrawIndexed(indexCount, 0, 0); What I'd expect to see is the green triangle, but it always shows me red triangle. What am I doing wrong? Also, I've got another question - should I set vertex shader in every pass? I've added ColorVertexShader1 that translates vertex position by some delta, and 've got following picture: http://imgur.com/Oe7Qj
