  • 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.

  • How can you store item data from a game?

    - by ThePlan
    When I look at games such as warcraft 3, or Diablo, or basically any games that contain items in them I notice that each item is unique. They all have different stats, different graphics, different names. I took a wild guess that they don't use XML, although I know I might be wrong, but I just figured they use something that isn't easily human-editable to prevent casual hacking. How is data such as item attributes stored in a game (2d or 3d, I suppose it works the same way in both)?

  • Basic Use of ApplyImpulse

    - by nycynik
    I am trying to apply a force to a bunch of b2_dynamicBodys, but it seems to only work for a random number of items and then stops with an error. //create some items to move bodyDef.type = b2Body.b2_dynamicBody; for(var i = 0; i < 5; ++i) { fixDef.shape = new b2PolygonShape; fixDef.shape.SetAsBox(1,1); fixDef.friction = 1; fixDef.restitution = .1; bodyDef.position.x = Math.random() * 10; bodyDef.position.y = Math.random() * 10; bodyDef.linearDamping=1; bodyDef.angularDamping=.8; itemsArray.push(world.CreateBody(bodyDef).CreateFixture(fixDef)); // store for later } then i try to apply a force later with: angle = 20; for (var xIdx=0; xIdx<itemArray.length; xIdx++) { itemsArray[xIdx].GetBody().ApplyImpulse(new b2Vec2(50*Math.cos(angle*Math.PI/180),50*Math.sin(angle*Math.PI/180));); } the error I receive is TypeError: 'undefined' is not an object (evaluating 'c.x') Is there something wrong with saving the items for later use when I am creating them? Does anyone know what is causing this.

  • XNA + Windows Forms: How make them work together without making the trick of the custom GraphicsDeviceControl?

    - by Renann
    What I've found is a solution where you have to code a custom GraphicsDeviceControl to put inside the form (the well known tutorial from the APPHub), but that's not what I'm searching for. I would like to say that before start to right my question here, I "googled" a lot and I saw some questions here, but I couldn't find what I'm looking for. I would like to have the Draw/Update loops completly managed by XNAFrameWork (with XNA project and so), and not by a custom component. I hope you understand what I asked. Thanks in advance. Edit What's the most important thing for me and wasn't shown in the tutorial of APPHub is: where I have to put the input handling? That's one the problems that wasn't covered by the tutorial.

  • UDK: Toggle Material on Brushes?

    - by user50300
    I'm attempting to change / toggle the material that's applied to a BSP brush. I've seen where it's possible on static meshes, but I can't seem to get it to work on brushes. 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.

  • The need to reduce mesh count

    - by OJW
    In Panda3d, I load a model and place 10000 references to it in the scene-graph. It runs at (say) 2Hz. I load a 3d model containing 10000 copies of that exact same object, and it runs at (say) 60Hz. As does using the flattenStrong() command which is effectively the same thing but at runtime. So the question is: is this behaviour a peculiarity of Panda3d, or is it a fundamental law which applies to all games engines?

  • SDL blitting multiple surfaces at once

    - by extropic_engine
    I'm trying to write a platforming game where the sprites for the level backgrounds are broken up into 512x512 chunks. I keep 3 chunks in memory at a time and I'm trying to write code to blit all three to the screen. Here is the current code I have: SDL_Rect where; where.y = -game->camera->y; where.x = -game->camera->x - MAP_WIDTH; SDL_BlitSurface(left_chunk, NULL, screen, &where); where.x = -game->camera->x; SDL_BlitSurface(center_chunk, NULL, screen, &where); where.x = -game->camera->x + MAP_WIDTH; SDL_BlitSurface(right_chunk, NULL, screen, &where); The issue I'm running into is that whichever chunk gets blitted first is the only one that shows up. The rest fail to appear onscreen. I think the issue might have something to do with alpha transparency, but even if the chunks don't overlap at all they still fail to blit. In other parts of the code I'm blitting multiple things to the screen at once, such as characters and backgrounds, and they all show up correctly. This particular segment of code is the only area I'm encountering this problem. If I comment out the line that blits left_chunk, it changes to this:

  • Protecting the integrity of a game state while minimizing amount of data sent

    - by espais
    I'm developing a game in PHP/jQuery, and naturally have to be wary of any sort of data coming from the client. At present, I have tables of data representing the map (2D roguelike), monsters, items, and player(s). Initially, my thought was to simply package it all in a JSON object and send it every game tick, however when actually looking at the data I realized that's quite a large packet to be sending. So, my question is what is a good approach for minimizing data sent to the client? Obviously I would need to figure out some way of validating whatever it sends back. Initially we'd hoped to do some minimal verification on the client-side, but each time we thought of one thing we could do it is immediately invalidated with tools like Firebug. Kind of an open question I realize, but we want to get this right before we move on with our implementation so we don't have to shoehorn in bugfixes later on.

  • Implementing unlockable items on Android

    - by coder_For_Life22
    I know this would be a beginners question (some of you might think) but I would like to know different approaches for this. I have a game with lets say 20 unlockable items, at the main menu I have a button where the user can go to an activity and view the unlockable items. So I would like for it to have a "Locked image" and under it a text telling you what the item is and maybe how to unlock it. What is the best way of going about this? And then when the item is unlocked during the game, maybe put a variable in the shared preference and check at the beginning of the activity with the unlockabled items. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks.

  • change texture at runtime

    - by user1509674
    How can I change the texture at runtime. I have done changing the label(text) at runtime. The following code is used using UnityEngine; using System.Collections; public class switchtime : MonoBehaviour { // Use this for initialization private bool showLabel = false; private bool showLabe2 = false; private bool showLabe3 = false; private bool showLabe4 = false; public void Start() { Invoke("ToggleLabel", 1); Invoke("ToggleLabel2", 3); Invoke("ToggleLabel3",6 ); Invoke("ToggleLabel4", 9); } public void ToggleLabel() { showLabel = !showLabel; } public void ToggleLabel2() { showLabe2 = !showLabe2; } public void ToggleLabel3() { showLabe3 = !showLabe3; } public void ToggleLabel4() { showLabe4 = !showLabe4; } public void OnGUI() { if (showLabel) { GUI.Label(new Rect(300, 200, 100, 20), "Copying window file.."); } if (showLabe2) { GUI.Label(new Rect(40, 40, 100, 20), "Epanding windows file.."); } if (showLabe3) { GUI.Label(new Rect(80, 80, 100, 20), "Installing Feature.."); } if (showLabe4) { GUI.Label(new Rect(100, 100, 100, 20), "Installing Updates"); } } } Now I need to change the GUITexture at runtime. How can do this? Can anybody help me in coding? Here is some changes I made. I worked on changing the gameObject when mouse is placed on it. This is the code I applied and its working for me using UnityEngine; using System.Collections; public class change : MonoBehaviour { // Use this for initialization public GameObject newSprite; private Vector3 currentSpritePosition; void update() { } void Start() { newSprite.renderer.enabled = false; currentSpritePosition = transform.position; //then make it invisible renderer.enabled = false; //give the new sprite the position of the latter newSprite.transform.position = currentSpritePosition; //then make it visible newSprite.renderer.enabled = true; } void OnMouseExit(){ //just the reverse process renderer.enabled = true; newSprite.renderer.enabled = false; } } Now the problem is that, in same code I need to set a time so that the text get loaded without the mouse click. I mean a particular time to load each text one after the another. Here is my screen shot Here I have placed the image one below the another,when the mouse is hovered on it it will change the text from bold to normal text.Changes process stated in (image 2,3).That code I posted is working for me.

  • If I were to start an Android or iPhone app or game, what program should I use?

    - by John
    I don't really know a lot about programming and the only things I do is using codes with Gamemaker, but I have read that it is too basic and it can't be used with iPhone or Android. Is there anything free that I can use to make games for those platforms? Or if not, any suggestions for engines or anything else? I was wondering about Unity, for example, is that a good investment to use for making games?

  • Multiple passes in direct3d10

    - by innochenti
    I begin to learning direct3d10 and stuck with multiple passes. 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

  • C++ game architecture

    - by rxc
    I'm trying to make a game, but I'm not sure of the best way to set up the main loop and classes. For really small games, I could put everything in the main() loop, including event handling, collision checking, etc. However, for large games, that's seems like a highly inefficient way to get things done. The architecture I want is kind like the way the Minecraft coders did it (I quote Minecraft code because I've seen the source code when downloading MCP). They have objects entity classes EntityCow and EntityChicken and they have methods like onDeath(), onLivingUpdate(); and item classes like ItemSword have methods like onItemUse(). I've never seen these methods get called directly, but apparently, they get stored in a class called DataWatcher, which, I think "watches" all the data (as the name implies) and calls the appropriate methods in the objects. Is that how most games do it? If so, how is the DataWatcher class implemented? Any help or alternate suggestions is really appreciated.

  • How to make the game wait for an animation to finish?

    I'm teaching myself andengine while trying to make a match-3 puzzle, so far I have a grid of gems that I populate and can move then around. Matching gems and new gems falling is working already. My problem is that the game keeps flowing while animations runs. How can I make the flow suspend until movement is done? I use entity modifiers for the gems animations. MoveYModifier for the fall and PathModifier for the swap.

  • Dynamic object creation with HashMap

    - by Salor
    I want to use a HashMap to dynamically create objects based on the key. I have a Random Map Generator that stores the maps in 3D Arrays of Type Integer[][][]. Upon creation of the actual map I iterate through this array and based on the Integer I want to create the right block. Example: Integer[][][] map ... map[6][6][6] = 3; 3 is a Earth-Block and now I want to initialize a new Block of this type and give it the right coordinates. Currently I store my Bindings from Integer to Class in a HashMap(Integer, String) and create my objects like that: int id = array[x][y][z]; String block_name = Blocks.map.get(id); Block block = (Block) Class.forName(block_name).newInstance(); block.setPosition(x,y,z); But I want to avoid newInstance() if possible. I've never worked that dynamically with Java before and I couldn't find a solution like changing the HashMap to (Integer, Class) or something. I just need to create a new Object based upon the Integer. Any ideas/solutions? Thanks in advance and have a wonderful day!

  • How do I apply an arcball (using quaternions) along with mouse events, to allow the user to look around the screen using the o3d webgl framework?

    - by Chris
    How do I apply an arcball (using quaternions) along with mouse events, to allow the user to look around the screen using the o3d webgl framework? This sample (http://code.google.com/p/o3d/source/browse/trunk/samples_webgl/o3d-webgl-samples/simpleviewer/simpleviewer.html?r=215) uses the arcball for rotating the transform of an "object", but rather than apply this to a transform, I would like to apply the rotation to the camera's target, to create a first person style ability to look around the scene, as if the camera is inside the centre of the arcball instead of rotating from the outside. The code that is used in this sample is var rotationQuat = g_aball.drag([e.x, e.y]); var rot_mat = g_quaternions.quaternionToRotation(rotationQuat); g_thisRot = g_math.matrix4.mul(g_lastRot, rot_mat); The code that I am using which doesn't work var rotationQuat = g_aball.drag([e.x, e.y]); var rot_mat = g_quaternions.quaternionToRotation(rotationQuat); g_thisRot = g_math.matrix4.mul(g_lastRot, rot_mat); var cameraRotationMatrix4 = g_math.matrix4.lookAt(g_eye, g_target, [g_up[0], g_up[1] * -1, g_up[2]]); var cameraRotation = g_math.matrix4.setUpper3x3(cameraRotationMatrix4,g_thisRot); g_target = g_math.addVector(cameraRotation, g_target); where am I going wrong? Thanks

  • PHP-How to choose XML section based on an attribute?

    - by Vincent
    All, I have a config xml file in the following format: <?xml version="1.0"?> <configdata> <development> <siteTitle>You are doing Development</siteTitle> </development> <test extends="development"> <siteTitle>You are doing Testing</siteTitle> </test> <production extends="development"> <siteTitle>You are in Production</siteTitle> </production> </configdata> To read this config file to apply environment settings, currently I am using, the following code in index.php file: $appEnvironment = "production"; $config = new Zend_Config_Xml('/config/settings.xml', $appEnvironment ); To deploy this code on multiple environments, as user has to change index.php file. Instead of doing that, is it possible to maintain an attribute in the xml file, "say active=true". Based on which the Zend_Config_Xml will know which section of the xml file settings to read? Thanks

  • Drag and Drop Team Selection

    - by davidjwest
    I have a Fantasy F1 Website, currently users select their teams using dropdown menus. It works OK but isn't as user friendly as I would like. I would like to implement a drag and drop type of system, there's jQuery code out there that would go part of the way to allowing me to do this: http://jqueryui.com/demos/draggable/ But I am not sure about how to integrate that into PHP and MySQL, my jQuery skills are limited! I'd also need to stop them spending more than a certain amount of money, each driver has a value and the teams can only spend a certain amount of money. There's also limits for example you can only pick a driver once, but you can have three different drivers. Finally, how would you decide that the user had picked their team, I don't want a submit button as that kind of defeats the object of the exercise! Thanks for any advice, I don't expect anyone to write the code for me but some pointers would be greatly appreciated.

  • Huge 2d pixelized world

    - by aspcartman
    I would like to make a game field in a indie-strategic 2d game to be some a-like this popular picture. http://0.static.wix.com/media/6a83ae_cd307e45ffd9c6b145237263ac1a86be.jpg_1024 So every "pixel"(blocks) changes it's color slowly, sometimes a bright color wave happens, etc, but the spaces beetwen this pixels should stay dark (not to count shades, lightning and other 3rd party stuff going on). Units are going to be same "pixelized" and should position them-selfs according those blocks. I have some experience in game-developing, but this task seems not trivial for me. What approaches (shader, tons of sprites or code-render, i don't now) would you recommend me to follow? (I'm thinking of making this game using Unity Engine) Thanks everyone! :)

  • How can I refactor my code to use fewer singletons?

    - by fish
    I started a component based, networked game (so far only working on the server). I know why singletons can be bad, but I can't think of another way to implement the same thing. So far I have: A GameState singleton (for managing the global state of the game, i.e. pre-game, running, exiting). A World singleton, which is the root entity for my entity graph An EntityFactory A ComponentFactory I'm thinking about adding a "MessageDispatcher" so individual components can subscribe to network messages. The factories do not have state, so I suppose they aren't so bad. However, the others do have global state, which is asking for trouble. How can I refactor my code so it uses fewer singletons?

  • Can not export JARS in lwjgl!

    - by NerdyLegend
    I did it before but for some reason it's doing the stupid problem again. I want to export as a regular Jar file, not a folder full of files. I export it like in Oskar Veerhoak. cmd says Exception in thread "main" java.lang.RuntimeException: Resource not found: res/F lubberFlap.png at org.newdawn.slick.util.ResourceLoader.getResourceAsStream(ResourceLoa der.java:69) at com_FlubberSpace.MainFS.main(MainFS.java:118) I tested it out with my other project with the same code pretty much. This is how I load my Textures wood = TextureLoader.getTexture("PNG", ResourceLoader.getResourceAsStream("res/wood.png")); of course it works fine in eclipse but not after export. I havn't tried giving the previous game its' own project, I have it in a package. Can someone record how to export properly? I want a jar file that you just double click to start it. I also want it so nobody can extract the files and see my classes and res.

  • Matrix camera, movement concept

    - by NoFace
    I was talking to some guy. He said that my movement concept in game is bad. When left or right arrow is pressed I'm scrolling background what makes you feel that player is moving (player's X remains same). So... he told me something about matrix view. I should create all walls and platforms static and scroll only the camera and move player's rectangle. I did a little research in Google, but nothing found. Can you tell me anything about it? How to start? Maybe links, books and resources? My programming language is Java (2d). Thank you!

  • Create a Texture2D from larger image

    - by Dialock
    I am having trouble with the basic logic of this solution: Xna: Splitting one large texture into an array of smaller textures in respect to my specific problem (specifically, I'm looking at the second answer.) How can I use my source rectangle that I already use for drawing to create a new Texture2D? spriteBatch.Draw(CurrentMap.CollisionSet, currentMap.CellScreenRectangle(x, y), CurrentMap.TileSourceRectangle(currentMap.MapCells[x, y].TileDepths[4]), Color.FromNonPremultiplied(0,0,0, 45), 0.0f, Vector2.Zero, SpriteEffects.None, 0.91f); I know I want a method that I started so: //In Update Method of say the player's character. Texture2D CollisionTexture = ExtractTexture(MapManager.CurrentMap.CollisionSet, MapManager.TileWidth, MapManager.TileHeight); // In MapManager Class who knows everything about tiles that make up a level. public Texture2D ExtractTexture(Texture2D original, int partWidth, int partheight, MapTile mapCell) { var dataPerPart = partWidth * partheight; Color[] originalPixelData = new Color[original.Width * original.Height]; original.GetData<Color>(originalPixelData); Color[] newTextureData = new Color[dataPerPart]; original.GetData<Color>(0, CurrentMap.TileSourceRectangle(mapCell.TileDepths[4]), originalPixelData, 0, originalPixelData.Count()); Texture2D outTexture = new Texture2D(original.GraphicsDevice, partWidth, partheight); } I think the problem is I'm just not understanding the overload of Texture2D.GetData< Part of my concern is creating an array of the whole texture in the first place. Can I target the original texture and create an array of colors for copying based on what I already get from the method TileSourceRecatangle(int)?

  • How to have the game world get rendered on just a part of the screen?

    - by VictorB
    I am implementing a game on both Desktop and Android. The Desktop version will just rely on the keyboard to handle the user input on the game screen, whilst the Android one will have to have a set of buttons placed in a bar at the bottom of the game screen, using a Stage. Consequently, I am expecting the game world to take up the entire space available on the Desktop screen, whilst on Android it should expand to the entire width of the screen, and to the screen height minus the height of the buttons bar I've mentioned. What would be an appropriate approach of handling space sharing between the game world and the buttons bar? Thank you.
