  • What file formats and conventions should I support to make my game engine artist-friendly?

    - by Avi
    I'm writing a game engine, and I want to know what I should do to make it more artist-friendly. I don't want to be too limiting in terms of what file formats I support, etc. Some specific questions: Are there specific formats artists like to model in? Does it not matter because the 3D modeler abstracts the data storage away? Is it okay if I don't support per-vertex coloration in my game engine? If I have to store a diffuse, specular, ambient, and emissive color value for each vertex, it doubles the size of vertices in the buffer. Is it reasonable to ask artists to do all these things in textures / maps? Any other tips you have about making it so that artists have to adapt their style to my specific engine as little as possible would be nice.

  • How to attract modders to your game?

    - by akaltar
    I am developing a game, but as I am working on it alone, the amount of content I can create is very limited. Because of that I want my game to be modded, for this purpose I am planning to create a complete modding API which would be exposed for lua scripting. I would also create tutorials to get people started. And the "Original" game would also be a "mod"(similar to Warcraft III maps) . My question is: What can a developer do to encourage modding of its game? PS: my game is a sandbox-ish multiplayer survival(most things are procedural).

  • Multi Level Security via Roles

    - by Geertjan
    I'm simulating a small scenario: Users can be dragged into roles; roles can be dragged into role groups. When a drop is made into a role group, a new role is created (WindowManager.getDefault().setRole("")). Then, when the user logs in, they log into a particular role. Depending on the role they log into, a different role group is assigned, which maps to a certain "role" in NetBeans Platform terms, i.e., the related level of security is applied and the related windows open.

  • How to log frame times in an existing OpenGL game? [on hold]

    - by J Collins
    I have been using FRAPS for some time to benchmark instantaneous frame rates in an OpenGL game for which I am creating maps. Until recently it had been quite reliable. Now however, the bench marking shortcut has been unresponsive and I can't explain why. Ideally I could have a logging system automatically start logging whenever the game had focus, but can't find a good tool to do so. So option a) find out how to make FRAPS reliable again or b) find a new tool. Could one of you kind folks help me? Edit: Concise questions Is there a widely recognised tool to log frame drawing times and rates for compiled applications? If the answer is universally the FRAPs tool, are there any clear cases in which logging will not or should not be expected to work?

  • Possible to map mouse coordinates to isometric tiles with this coordinate system?

    - by plukich
    I'm trying to implement mouse interaction in a 2d isometric game, but I'm not sure if it's possible given the coordinate system used for tile maps in the game. I've read some helpful articles like this one: How to convert mouse coordinates to isometric indexes? However, this game's coordinate system is "jagged" for lack of a better word, and looks like this: Is it even possible to map mouse coordinates to this successfully, since the y-axis can't be drawn on this tile-map as a straight line? I've thought about doing odd-y-value translations and even-y-value translations with two different matricies, but that only makes sense going from tile-screen.

  • Where should I put a method that returns a list of active entries of a table?

    - by darga33
    I have a class named GuestbookEntry that maps to the properties that are in the database table named "guestbook". Very simple! Originally, I had a static method named getActiveEntries() that retrieved an array of all GuestbookEntry objects. Each row in the guestbook table was an object that was added to that array. Then while learning how to properly design PHP classes, I learned some things: Static methods are not desirable. Separation of Concerns Single Responsibility Principle If the GuestbookEntry class should only be responsible for managing single guestbook entries then where should this getActiveEntries() method most properly go? Update: I am looking for an answer that complies with the SOLID acronym principles and allows for test-ability. That's why I want to stay away from static calls/standard functions. DAO, repository, ...? Please explain as though your explanation will be part of "Where to Locate FOR DUMMIES"... :-)

  • Error downloading novacom drivers &ndash; WebOS

    - by Ken
    I got sick of the Bing Maps on WebOS not being able to find “coffee” when I’m in St. Paul.  Coffe Pk, TX anyone? – no thanks.  So I finally got around to installing PreWare on my Palm Pre 2.  The WebOS Quick Install doesn’t successfully download the novacom drivers.  You can find them here: http://downloads.help.palm.com/opensource/novacom/novacom-win-32.tgz http://downloads.help.palm.com/opensource/novacom/novacom-win-64-tgz Don’t bother trying the Novacom Universal Installer either. Then put phone in developer mode (by Typing webos20090606 and switch on developer mode), attach phone in “Just Charge” mode, run WebOS Quick Install, select the globe icon, and search for PreWare, install.

  • What do you use to create sprite graphics? [closed]

    - by SimpleRookie
    Possible Duplicate: What tools do you use for 2D art/sprite creation? What do you folks suggest for creating sprite graphics and sprite sheets? I fiddle with pixelformer and tilestudio. Pixelfromer has a kicken interface, it is quick and easy to make graphics, but a bit cumbersom if you want to make a spritemap. Tile Studio is a interesting mix or tiles and maps, but it is a bit buggy and basic. The Adobe series, just don't really seem to handle tiny graphics well. (there is a previous posting of this question existing, but it is a year old and I was hoping for further/updated input from the community)

  • Event Aggregator.. not getting a response, how to determine completion?

    - by Duncan_m
    I'm rewriting a vehicle tracking application, a google maps based thing.. The users are able to search for a vehicle by typing a few characters of the vehicles "callsign". My application is based around a sort of "event bus" within Backbone.. when a search occurs I send a message on the bus saying something like "does anyone match this?".. If a marker matches the search term it responds with a sort of "yes, I match!".. My challenge arises when no-one matches, I get no response.. it feels a little hacky to "wait a little while" and check if a response has been recieved.. The application is based around Backbone.js and using the Event Aggregator pattern described in the answer to this question on Stack Overflow: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/7708195/access-function-in-one-view-from-another-in-backbone-js Is there a well defined design pattern that might assist me here? Sending a request for a response and not getting any responses?

  • Upgraded Ubuntu from 12.04 to 12.10 Ati radeon HD 3450 Catastrophe!

    - by minime
    When I had upgraded everything was ready on the screen om my computer and with my 12.04 ubuntu. When I restarted my system, the graphics card was not detected. I was forced to start the computer in low graphics mode, and eventually I had a pink deskop with only my maps, and no other programs at all. What do I do now? I need to recover the pictures on my system so that I can upload them online. I'd done a graphics card test on the terminal initially, and it showed that the card was compatible with unity 3D. I have an ATI radeon HD 3450 and I was running a 32 bit build of Ubuntu 12.04 initially Right now I have a broken install of Linux, with no working graphics card or desktop to start from, so I'm unsure of how to fix this.

  • Chrome Web Store met en avant les applications qui fonctionnent hors-ligne, un nouveau Dashboard pour les développeurs

    Chrome Web Store met en avant ses applications qui fonctionnent hors-ligne Dans Chrome, un nouveau Dashboard pour les développeurs Les applications Web, c'est bien. Mais sans connexion, elles deviennent vite moins intéressantes. Il est par exemple étonnant que les smartphones, tous équipés de GPS et de capacités de stockage pléthoriques, ne puissent pas depuis longtemps utiliser toute la puissance d'une application comme les Google Maps hors ligne (ce que permet par exemple ForeverMap avec des cartes pré-téléchargées d'OpenStreetMap). Mais les choses sont en train de changer du côté de Google. De plus en plus d'applications du Chrome Web Store,

  • Windows 8 : Google sort son application de recherche pour contrer Bing et prépare le terrain à ses services concurrents de Microsoft

    Windows 8 : Google sort son application de recherche Pour contrer Bing et préparer le terrain pour ses services concurrents de Microsoft La recherche par défaut de Windows 8 est bien évidemment Bing. On ne sait pas si la justice décidera de s'attaquer à cette application, comme elle l'a fait pour Internet Explorer ou le Media Player, mais on sait une chose : Google a déjà réagi. Et de la meilleure manière qui soit : pas devant les tribunaux donc, mais avec une application maison. Tout comme pour la version iOS, Google Search for Windows 8 est gratuit, propose la recherche vocale et tous les raccourcis vers les services hébergés de Google. Dont Gmail, Calendar , Maps ...

  • Oracle s'associe à Nokia pour utiliser ses cartes dans ses applications d'entreprise, bonne nouvelle pour le Finlandais

    Oracle s'associe à Nokia pour utiliser ses cartes Dans ses applications d'entreprise, bonne nouvelle pour le Finlandais A mesure que la mobilité monte en puissance, les services de cartographie deviennent de plus en plus stratégique. En témoigne le récent abandon des Googles Maps par Apple dans iOS. Apple qui ne pouvait pas longtemps dépendre d'un concurrent dans ce domaine. Mais ce mouvement ne concerne pas que le grand public. Loin de là. Les CRM par exemple, sont de plus en plus portés sur tablette et les outils de BI prennent de plus en plus en compte des problématiques géospatiales (implantation de maga...

  • Android : Sample KML/GPX compatable with DDMS

    - by Drahcir
    I am testing out an Android application I wrote with google maps. The DDMS is not loading the KML/GPX files I found on the internet. What I assume is that the files are relatively old in format (Maximum 2007) and the DDMS cannot read them. I was wondering if there is somewhere I can download a sample KML or GPX file that I can use to test out my application.
