[Map in a box]

A topdown zombie shooter. Quite the unique idea if I dare say so myself!

[jalb]

Just spent 10 minutes trying to figure out why this line of code was giving me the warning "forcing value to bool":

[cpp]return (cross != D3DXVECTOR3(0, 0, 0));[/cpp]

Turns out DirectX defines a "BOOL" as an "int". All my rage, take it!

[QUOTE=jalb;33154936]I hit a brick wall the other day. Then while at a group-coding session yesterday my computer crashed and I lost one of the most important (and biggest) files in my project! Spent all day re-coding it rather than getting anything done. But I'm back in action and hope to get lines and planes done today.

I setup an SVN on my home-server to avoid losing anymore files in the future. I'll probably setup apache here soon as well in case anyone wants to take a peek at the source.[/QUOTE]

Now I may be wrong but wouldn't it be easier to code [url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Separating_axis_theorem]seperating planes/axis theorem[/url] and then treat OBB/ABB/Line/Triangle and maybe planes as a case of a convex shape, meaning you'll have to write one intersection code for all those shapes?

Someone(Overv i think) asked for a dump of Battlefield 3's _G so i fired up IDA and made one

[url]http://pastebin.com/dXYT1Cgi[/url]

Code i used is this:

function PrintTable( t, indent, done )
    done = done or {}
    indent = indent or 0
    for key, value in pairs (t) do
        Msg ( string.rep ("\t", indent) )
        if type (value) == "table" and not done [value] then
            done [value] = true
            Msg (tostring (key) .. ":" .. "\n");
            PrintTable (value, indent + 2, done)
        else
            Msg (tostring (key) .. "\t=\t")
            Msg (tostring(value) .. "\n")
        end
    end
end
PrintTable( _G )

if anyone wants the Cpp source just tell me, i need to clean the unused parts out before posting but im not sure if anybody wants it

Edit:
sorry for the huge size, i was unaware that the code tags dont add scrollbars

[Smashmaster]

Please put that on pastebin or something.

I can't even make a joke about that.

Just got the second stage of my boot loader to work!
[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/DlVIk.png[/IMG]
This stage should put me in protected mode and load/run the kernel which will be written C. I'm really looking forward to that. (Those sexy brackets!)

Also, the file system is almost finished, with native support for two-stage boot loaders. (basically two boot sectors, where one is the normal 512 bytes, and the other is 3072 bytes)

what do you mean?

The lag is because of the recording software. I need to invest in getting fraps. The little circles on each shape represents the "closest point" to the top-left camera's position.

Now for lines!

I am using SAT for most of the collisions. However, some shapes can be more easily computed without SAT. For example, I have a whole SAT system setup, but it would be way more overhead than is necessary for something like AABB-AABB.

Pasting a dump of data that long just isn't funny. It's tragic.

I'm sorry, last time i posted something this large code tags would just be a little text box with scroll bars making sure it doesnt extend a certain size

Edit: for those who want to mess around a bit: (lua_State *)0xE66A4660; works for me, if it doesnt work, attach ida, at 0x004DE6E8(esi) and many other locations the state can be found.

Today I wanted to make a Firefly (the (best) tv show) MMORPG, but then I realized I didn't have the skills and it would probably be too much alike EVE.[/QUOTE]

Please do it. Firefly kicks ass. All ass. Every ass to ever exist.

'Twas me. Thanks for that. :3 How did you get the text after printing it with Msg though?

[QUOTE=GARRYMODE;33158040]'Twas me. Thanks for that. :3 How did you get the text after printing it with Msg though?[/QUOTE]
I kind of made the Msg function

int luaPrint( lua_State *L )
{
	const char *text = luaL_checkstring( L, 1 );
	if( text == NULL )
	{
		Beep( 400, 500 );
		Beep( 400, 1000 );
		Beep( 400, 500 );
		return 1;
	}
	log( text );
	return 1;
}

void doDump( )
{
	Beep( 500, 1000 );
	log( "Attached" );
	lua_pushcfunction( g_L, luaPrint );
	lua_setglobal( g_L, "Msg" );
	log( "Set functions" );
	Beep( 500, 1000 );

	int error = luaL_dofile( g_L, "print.lua" );
	if( error )
	{
		Beep( 700, 100 );
		Beep( 700, 100 );
		Beep( 700, 100 );
		log( lua_tostring( g_L, -1 ) );
		lua_pop( g_L, 1 );
	}
}

ingamePrint should print to the in-game console (haven't tried though)

ah I never thought of doing it like that. :)

Aye that works. Sort of hard to make a huge dump. :P

I've not had much time to mess with BF3 since my last information dump post. Can you please explain what Movicol is?

Oh har har. I get it now. :shame:

Managed to create a gif.

Just dicking around with SFML, quite stupid actually.

The actual animation is a bit smoother, especially the color changes.

Is there an webm encoder for virtualdub or something like that?
How do you make (encode) those videos ?
