Re: Anybody have experience with Chipmunk Physics?

*wipes dirt off brow*

I chose Chipmunk over Box2D for my latest "project". It's more straight forward in my opinion. I also think the simulation is less floaty than Box2D's. I checked out the demos to get the basics.

Re: Trying to make a computer

The parts came in. I assembled it in dim light. I have already stumped my toe on it. It works but the screen hasn't arrived yet! Thanks for helping. EDIT: I keep reading everywhere that in order for dual channel ram to work it has to be inserted into the blue slots. But my mother board manual made i...

Re: Trying to make a computer

I'm just glad the sexy wreck doesn't have LEDs all on it. I think it makes computers look tacky and cheap.

Re: Trying to make a computer

Haha... when I was a youngin' I used to dream of making a computer out of clothespins. Arce, the sad thing is I didn't even know i5 was considered snazzy. I live under a rock. I'll spend less than $1000. EDIT: Does anyone have a graphics card that didn't cost $300 that they would recommend for a JSL...

Re: Trying to make a computer

Yeah guess I'll go with the 750. I'll be using this computer for whatever and probably won't buy another for a long long time. So I'm trying to get it half way decent.

Re: New Gyromite

Good news everyone. The game is finished! I kid you. Yeah I have been meditating in my cave for 10 months. It got too musty so I left. I live in Georgia now and work a job for one year, a Co-Op. Here is my update... I don't like C++ anymore. It's black olives on my sandwich. SICK. Python is pepperon...

Re: New Gyromite

fceu. But like I said, it doesn't matter. I'm not trying to say I know anything, just that I haven't run into the problem.
