Re: C Pointer Question

Maybe i don't understand the design, but it seems a bit backwards to me. Why not let the different loaders inherit a common interface instead of having the common interface inherit each of the loaders?

Re: [Enemy AI] Need some advice

Personally, I enjoy the AI stage of coding a game, because it can really surprise you how effective a simple idea can be, it gets fascinating pretty quickly. Maybe would be useful to make a small demo to illustrate this properly, as I said this stuff can be a lot of fun to work on. If you haven't I...

Re: [Enemy AI] Need some advice

A picture, video, or compiled executable would definitely help us to visualize your algorithm in the context of your game. I think the zombies are just moving towards the player, and he want to stop them from balling too much up, right? I read a book called "Programming Game AI By Example"...

Re: Dennis Ritchie is Dead

He still could have showed respect though, the way he handled it was really disrespectful. He just froze didn't know what to say and said really uneasily "you can read more about that on our website?", when in reality it wasn't there what so ever. He could have at least said something lik...

Re: Do you guys still use the old deprecated way of using Op

Do you guys still use the old deprecated way of using OpenGL? Some modern OpenGL tutorials: http://duriansoftware.com/joe/An-intro-to-modern-OpenGL.-Table-of-Contents.html http://www.arcsynthesis.org/gltut/ By depreciated do you mean using GLUT? If so, yes I do use GLUT. ;) By depreciated, I'm quit...

Re: The heap vs. the stack

I mean no offense, but your post shows that you clearly do NOT understand how the stack works. I recommend putting down whatever low-level architecture/organization book is talking about pushing registers onto a software stack, and start with the basics in a C/++ book. You've confused the hell out ...

The heap vs. the stack

I know what the difference between the heap and the stack is when you code. All the stuff about how a stack is a stack and the heap is for dynamically allocated objects and so on. For some time now, i have wondered about why the designers of C/C++ (and pretty much every other language too, but often...

Re: Why does SDL & OpenGL main have parameters

Okay so from now on I should always have them in every program? And how come my C++ book does not make me put it? They probably want to keep their basic examples as uncluttered as possible, so they can explain the very basics without having people thinking "What are those words and characters ...

Re: Why does SDL & OpenGL main have parameters

It is the commandline arguments passed to the progam. The first int argument is the number of arguments and the second string array is the arguments themselves. SDL and OpenGL does not have their own main function, you are using the regular plain old main function and calling SDL or OpenGL functions...
