Hello all, this is kind of A programming health question. I have fairly recently (as of April 19th) come down with a case of Tendonitis. I was wondering: A: How often does this occur with programmers? B: Is it really curable, if you've had a case with it how long did take to cure, and what did you d...

I feel I become a better programmer every time I see Stroustrup (had to look up the name on google) talking or read one of his books. Ik! Dude knows what he is talking about, and his arguments are very good. By the way, his accent is really funny, and I couldn't stop laughing at that phrase "I...

Good day, I was wondering if there was some way (probably obvious) to make my approach to the following problem more elegant: Problem: I need to be able to call a method and or function in an abstract, interchangeable (for lack of a better word) way. Meaning, either call an overloaded method, or use...

Is C more efficient? And if so, then why? Yes. C code tends to be faster than the equivalent C++ code for a variety of reasons. Most of C++'s high-level object-oriented mechanisms have some sort of overhead associated with them. The most classic example is the vtable introduced by virtual functions...

Thanks! :-D

I will remember to use that for now on.

Hi there! Well I tried logging in a couple days ago and I could not look at any posts :-( . I have tried over the next couple days and I still can not look at post's. I know other's can because I saw post's that were made today. I get the error: http://elysianshadows.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=6&...

As I am continually telling people, QT is a framework designed to handle GUI-based applications. Sure, you can make games with it, but I wouldn't recommend it. That's a gigantic amount of overhead for a game, and it's using the framework for something it was never intended to do. For the most part ...

That actaully helps my understanding of path finding

wow. is gyrovorbis still working on this game? haven't been on this forum for prob a few years : |. Anyways it really depends on what platform you want to develop for. If you are interested in cross platform capabilities, then you use sdl to handle everything except graphics which opengl handles. B...

have you seen the MTG TCG computer game ? Did you know that you can buy foils.... Digital rare foils. lol :lol: My friends and I occasionally play TCG's (we kinda got out of the habit), but when we did sometimes we would like to play online but, there was really no point seeing as you had to manage...

Good day :-) I know I kinda have a post about this: http://elysianshadows.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=6567 But I am now more seriously considering either useing Google Native Client (NaCl) or Qt. Mainly I am questioning this beacues I plan to re-write my engine (for the most part), and I woul...

Thank you!

Iv been trying to figure out how to design a method to send objects to scripts that is abstract
enough to cover the majority of languages, this really helped!
