Elysian Shadows

Here's a list I recently made with web-related items. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1T3vfm72KtD7sDdClU1qLBfugSr7pgJEgqou7jZ_bEs8/edit Thanks! Some nice resources in there. I would encourage you to try a large front end, and then back end, framework. Such as Asp.Net, MVC/++, an Apache web-frame...

TLDR: I'm trying to get better at making "large" web apps and am looking for project ideas. So I've been programming mostly in C++ focusing mostly on game development for the past couple of years. The primary learning tool I've used during this time is "I want to make X type of game s...

It all depends on what you're trying to accomplish. Are you trying to make a flexible engine or framework? Or are you trying to make a specific game that doesn't require the flexibility? If you're doing the first one, then allowing user defined sizes is probably a good idea. However, if you're makin...

For storing each sprite's information you can doing something like this (in pseudo c++): class Sprite { Texture* tex; //sprite's texture, keep track of what's already loaded somewhere int x, y; //the sprite's position int width, height; //the size of the sprite int frame or texure_coordinates, etc; ...

So apparently everything's turning into a minecraft clone now.
Seems like it could be interesting. How do those of you who are bigger Dragon Quest fans than I think about this?



Sort of reminds me of FFCC My Life as a King but with more in depth building and more of a traditional rpg.

Generally what I do i set up separate source directories for each platform so the directory tree looks like this: project/ include/ graphics.h common/ graphics_common.c main.c pc/ graphics_pc.c dc/ graphics_dc.c Then you just set which directories to use in your ide or makefile. So there're no #ifde...

Nice, I especially love the PropellerBeanie page.

ikr it's nice being able to lurk the forums again

Dude i love it!

Nice! Just what I needed to keep myself from douching my ass all break.

Though it makes it feel like my first year comp sci class is still going on, but without the dull professor so I guess that's a plus

Just came across this and I'm not sure how I didn't see this almost a year ago.
Kudos to the creator for making it. This thing is awesome!

Have it write what files are open when it closes to another file. Then load that file when the program loads so it knows to open the last file you were editing automatically.

I don't know which language/api you're using but you should be doing something like this:
When save is clicked
open file for writing
get text from the text area
write the string to the file
close the file

The most common way to do this would be to put each class declaration in their own separate header files and the definitions in their own separate cpp files. //PlayWorld.h class PlayWorld { public: void PrintPage(); void PrintMonsters(); void PrintItems(); }; //PlayWorld.cpp void PlayWorld::PrintPag...
