There's going to be other trees within a scene graph. The argument is for not trying to merge them in to one super scene graph.
[QUOTE=Philly c;33544776]There's going to be other trees within a scene graph. The argument is for not trying to merge them in to one super scene graph.[/QUOTE] This, exactly. Also, I'm not sure what you're saying about mipmapping (of terrain heightmaps, I assume?) 'going hand-in-hand' with BVHs. I can't find anything which indicates that Netimmerse/Gamebryo uses BVHs (although I do not doubt that it might, in some form), or any information at all with regards to how it handles culling and such. I also wouldn't consider 'cells' to be a BSP structure. It's not, in any sense, a [i]binary [/i]space partition. Although it is a spatial partitioning scheme, simple cells are not hierarchical so they lack a lot of useful properties.
I made a little screenshot thing thats take pictures like Gyazo, uploads them to my dropbox, then copies the public link to my clipboard. [IMG]http://dl.dropbox.com/u/19301242/Pics/dropboxThing.png[/IMG]

You need to turn your monitor's brightness down or it affects the screenshot quality.
Clearly it's my monitors fault and not just the fact that the image is too white. Either that or you're trying to convince me that he programmed his computer to control a robot to take a picture of its monitor and upload it to drop-box. Also I REFUSE TO GET IT

[QUOTE=Smashmaster;33545222]It's a little... White.[/QUOTE] Well you see, its basically just a half transparent borderless form, that goes over the entire screen. And it needed to be somewhat visible so you could see the marks of what your taking the screen of. Basically I suck and couldn't find another way to do it. Edit: The actual image it takes doesn't have the white film over it.
Does anyone know any songs that convey a feeling of emptyness without being dull as hell, or in other words "spacey". Trying to find a nice song for my main menu and I'm having no luck whatsoever.

Does this also work well in corridors for you? It looks very nice.
I've decided that as I make games, I'm going to license utility stuff and things to that could help people under the DO WHAT THE FUCK YOU WANT license so others don't have to endure the pain of figuring out this stuff.

So I decided to try and learn some programming. I looked at VB for about 30 minutes and then found C#, which was more to my liking. I made a couple of console (yeah, "Hello, world" included) and Forms applications, and I found that it was very interesting! About a week after Battlefield 3's release I put together an application which essentially, when launched, would launch Origin if it wasn't already running and through its own integrated web browser loaded up Battlelog, and when the program was closed it also closed Origin and that ESN sonar application. Now back then Battlelog did not have the "remember me" cookie option, so I integrated my own auto-complete which taught me encryption (thankfully for the security of user data Battlelog soon integrated their own cookie based 'remember me' auto-login, so I removed mine). I also wrote into the application an auto-update system which worked with change-logs and my own free webspace. Basically, the user would disable Origin's "Startup when Windows logs on" setting, add my .exe to Steam (the entire project was the .exe; auto-updater and all - no permanent external files or folders) and it would be the most simple method of getting from Steam into BF3 easily and with overlays, but also importantly not remaining in-game for days because you added Origin itself to Steam. Worked fine, a lot of my mates are using it. I'm currently working on a complete re-write of it using WPF and hopefully a non Internet Explorer based web browser component (looking at Awesomium and such).

Hi everyone. This is my first time posting here. I started learning XNA last evening. [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WCPs58Y-nFc[/media]
I can either make materials use a binary format, which would require me to code an editor, but it would have the advantage of each parameter having a type assigned to it Or I could write a key values parser and make it be like source materials Or I could just implement JSON, but both plaintext options would require me to make assumptions about the type when loading it, which could result in an extreme mess
I have no idea what possessed me to make this... [hd]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zt-u8gtGGbE[/hd] It's written in C# with XNA for my first Uni assignment. We're supposed to have something moving around the screen, bounded by the edges of the window, and some form of enemy and pickups. I think I've met those conditions... I'm quite pleased with the rocket AI, it uses both yours and its own states to figure out the best direction to move it to collide with you in the shortest time. It's fun!
