Elysian Shadows

You play Super Mario RPG?
I like games that can be funny. I like games that don't take themselves too seriously,
so I guess that is why I always liked it as an RPG.

Ha! Here's a new pic from Falco;

How many of the jobs that involve programming require a degree in another field? I was reading about how it helps to have degrees in other areas, and that it helps to have extensive knowledge in another area outside of computer science when looking for a job. Do any of you have any degrees in areas ...

It appears Microsoft will be buying Minecraft for 2.5 billion dollars.
Kind of funny since he seemed so angry about Oculus Rift being sold to Facebook.
Oh well. I guess that on such matters almost everyone has their price.

So where have you been, Marcel?

Using Live 9 Lite. Seems good enough for what I'm doing. Fun to play around with.

Thank you all for the advice. I am sorry that I did not thank you sooner, but I did not see it until just recently. I had gone back into programming for a while. As far as playing the keyboard, I did play piano for around 10 years, (not with great devotion, but still a steady amount of practice.) So...

Well apparently the "scanf" function just doesn't work very well with getting inputs in a loop.
Ended up using "sscanf" with an input string instead.
Now it works.

Thanks for the info guys. I was fixing up some of the code and then started having trouble with input again, (which I wasn't having before.) Now taking in the name as two characters, I have trouble with the loop. It takes the first input entered, and moves accordingly. But then any input after, I as...

Ok. It works when I just disable the warning about "sscanf" and just use the standard version.
Apparently it is some trouble with "sscanf_s". Does use the parameters differently than the old version>

Having some trouble reading in chess positions. Reading the character as "x", and the number as "y". This "sscanf_s" function ends up with some access violation. I have no idea why. Here is the function. char inputX; int inputY; std::string input; std::getline(std::cin,...

It reminded me of this SNL skit;

Here is a crowd funding project for a tech product. The most ridiculous crowd funding project I have ever seen. (I guess they are hoping some old people send them some money.) Here it is, they give a description. https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/wifiex The video explains it, sort of. Cracks me up....

I'm thinking about trying to do some music composition.
I don't need anything fancy right now,
I will probably look for a reasonably priced MIDI controller.
What software do you recommend?

Oh, I didn't notice people had posted more on this topic. Thanks. I did figure it out a while ago. I was able to make an object loader for the basic shapes. Another big problem came when I added textures. Then the code just got messy and out of hand. I forget what my problem was, but I stopped and w...
