Here's some progress on my game some more. I think I'll call it [B]Arcane, Stealth and Power[/B]. Just because I suck at names.[/QUOTE]
That's really awesome! I love the effects and art style.
I still can't believe how much quality stuff FP is capable of making.

I watched the video and thought "Woah that's impressive"
Then I read this and thought "Ok, that's not impressive"
Whether it's impressive or not doesn't affect how fun it is to play though.
Is there a list of types of cursor names? for SetCursor(LoadCursor(NULL, IDC_...)); ?

In the future if you ever encounter another question like this relating to windows programming, be sure to check out MSDN, it's the best source for anything windows related.

Just made a simple program which monitors my GPU temperature. If it gets too hot it remotely turns on a table fan that I have pointed right at my card.
Built-in fans just isn't enough for it. Overheats and shuts down my computer when it gets above 80 degrees celcius.

That's a little odd. Most modern cards start artifacts at about 100 and die at about 120+
It might be easier to just wack up the speed of the video card fan?

My HD4850's fan at 100% can still reach into the 100s

Now I can edit the terrain with my mouse and I've made the shadows look more realistic.
(That black outline on a bit of the F is due to me accidentally raising the point too high, and creating a shape I've not programmed it to shade correctly)

It's and old Radeon 2900. Many people seem to have overheating problems with it. Never any artifacts thoguh, my motherboard decides it's a good time to shut down when it reaches 80 :sigh:

I just got rid of the plastic covering the heatsink and added my own high-power 92mm fan right on it. 8800GTS never goes over 60C (in summer time).
I had a Arctic Cooling Accelero XTREME on my 8800. Best cooler I ever bought. Brought my temps down like 20 degrees.
Some may remember my shitty msn drawing program ([url=http://www.facepunch.com/showpost.php?p=15823617&postcount=36]v1[/url] and [url=http://www.facepunch.com/showpost.php?p=15828784&postcount=54]v2[/url])
Well I worked a little on it, it is still shitty and now uses the whole 16 color palette of MSN.

Hooray.
I remember that, I think it's pretty good

Mind going into more detail? I'm interested in how that's drawn in the chat window.
Well the script reads the image into a matrix, then uses Floyd Steinberg Dithering to dither the picture to a preset palette (the 16 msn colors) and finally puts every pixel (for y, for x) into msn by simple mouse movement. No leet memory hacking included. Since it'll end up with 10000 pixels for a 100x100 image, it takes a while, because MSN is a slow.
And the palette is its biggest weakness. There's not even orange in there.

You gotta close your eyes halfway so it looks orange.
Some pictures just work better than others.

I was getting tired of the lack of instant-killing deathbeams in my game, so here you have it as the wizard's latest toy: [B]Rift Beam[/B].

Note: if you hit an enemy with low health he'll be pulverized like in the pic above.

Release please?
I'm working on application bootstrapper. It's going to be a program which will hold all your app files in one exe and unpack them at launch.
Features:
LZMA compression.
Password protection and files encryption.
Protection from file modification.
Everything packed in custom archive file format and then added to bootstrapper exe.
So it's pretty hard to modify files inside bootstrapper exe.
No pics :D
I've tried to start learning C++ today (or this afternoon and evening to be more exact) from a few tutorials on on youtube, so far the best thing I have made (read as typed out by me from copying the tutorial), and then fixing it where I have put ()'s instead of {}'s. It's basically a guess-the-number-between-1-and-1000 game, where it tells you if you're to high or low. I know, really basic stuff, but you gotta start somewhere.

Ya, I was going for that (well not the jpeg arse quality) but the colours as it was just really a test to try out system(COLOUR).
Creating my first bot for Google Wave:

Next: Porting the 12 year old translator to Java and making my bot use it. :razz:
Also, I noticed that if I use Runtime.getRuntime().getAvaibleProcessors() to get the amount of cores/CPUs the computer it's running on has, its always returning 1337.

How do you even get Wave to be stable enough so you can develop anything at all for it?
[QUOTE=Sippeangelo;16783031]How do you even get Wave to be stable enough so you can develop anything at all for it?[/QUOTE]
Not so sure if I understood you correctly...
Wave doesn't crash that often for me and you don't use Wave to develop, you develop for Wave. So I could even code a bot for it if it crashed every 5 seconds.

I wouldn't develop for anything that's so unstable that I can't test it in the environment it was designed for.
To be honest, I don't know how they got it to work in the live demonstration.
As it is now in the sandbox, it freezes in both Firefox and Chrome. Suddenly it just brings up it's "crash reporter" even when it still works. I have waves in my inbox that I can't delete, leave or look at.
Yeah Google Wave is FUCKKKEDD right now. If they weren't ALL public the problem probably wouldn't be so huge.
Still working on a layout for my coding network site. You guys will be impressed.
How did you guys get in on google wave? I signed up for the email alert, but haven't seen anything since I signed up.
