What are you working on? v6

Hey, who made the PHP API to authenticate minecraft accounts?

I'd like to know what you did to make it work. I'm making something similar atm.

What the fuck, why is my photo upside down.

I made one a while ago, so I don't know if you're referring to me.

You can just set $VERSION to 99999999, as if you set a lower value like 2 it'll return "Old Version".

If authentication is successful you'll receive

$CURRENT_VERSION:$DOWNLOAD_TICKET:$USERNAME:$SESSION_ID
[/quote]

otherwise you'll receive

It actually looks like you did that correctly, except Photoshop fixed the moiré pattern. I'll make a step-by-step tomorrow perhaps. I'm falling behind in math homework, so I dunno yet.

I gave up on the Minecraft project, I know it is possible, but just not now.

It is possible now, [b]YOU[/b] just don't know how. You'll also run into legal troubles, because you're ripping EVERYTHING including the name from Mojang. Besides it's not worth it, [url=http://www.minecraft.net/play]you can run Minecraft in the browser anyway.[/url]

The idea was to eliminate the Java shit, because Java is a process hog. And, I know how to do it, it's all this new-age WebGL shiz. The legal side didn't occur to me either.

I meant like know how it is done, not how to.

I guess so, I'm pretty shit at optimisation anyway.

[Jelly_]

If you know how it's done, you can do it.

While web development and design seems much easier than general programming in entirety, writing Minecraft in WebGL+JavaScript+HTML5+additional libraries is multitudes more difficult than writing Minecraft in OpenGL+Java+additional libraries.

Alternatively, you could attempt to port Minecraft to using web natives by reverse engineering the codebase and mapping transliterate code. On such a scale, it's very time expensive, though, not to mention unrealistic. It's a really neat idea, but just that.

[Jelly_]

Especially considering WebGL is so young and there aren't many resources out there.

No thanks, I'm not that bad.

[QUOTE=amcfaggot;32634207]Javascript is slower than Java.[/QUOTE]
You'll find that with the increasing interest in pushing JavaScript forward, JavaScript engines like v8 are getting incredibly more powerful. Although, yes, Java is obviously faster considering how much work has been put into it and that it's not interpreted at runtime.

The example I posted earlier was not optimised at all, so it's not a very good example. To be honest, I think you could easily make a Minecraft clone with WebGL, that could even run at a decent speed. The issue would probably come down to the amount of memory being used. So if you were going to make a Minecraft styled game with a fixed map size, for example like that Minecraft war game thing, then it would work alright. I think it's also important to note, that I personally think, that Minecraft isn't optimised really well, so it's probably not fair to compare the two of them.

Does anyone know how HTML <canvas> works specifically; i.e is it re-rendered every frame or on change.

Which system would be more efficient:

1. Render the map elements as images in canvas, but move the whole canvas element to move the player on the map
2. Render the map elements as images again, but move each image within canvas rather than the canvas element.

If canvas renders and deosn't re-render until the next change I assume 1 would be far better (just like moving an image around the page). The current system is a bunch of <div>'s moving around the screen, which lags when we're talking 1000+ tiles at once.

You can decide when to re-render and what. You can clear just a part of the canvas and re-draw that only for example.

I reckon it'd be easier to render the entire map on a secondary (buffer) canvas and then use it all as a single image, and move the player and camera instead of the map.

The current system is a bunch of <div>'s moving around the screen, which lags when we're talking 1000+ tiles at once.[/QUOTE]The maps don't have to be generated or changed often, right? Then you can just use a secondary canvas for the map and use the result as an image on the first canvas, instead of having to redraw every single element every time. That should give you tenfold the performance.

Javascript is [i]a lot[/i] slower than Java. You can't compare the two in the first place. It would be a more realistic and still respectable feat to recreate Minecraft classic 1:1 in web natives rather than port either version.

You are confusing design with art.

I know this is a little unorthodox; but I'm struggling with my homework and we've been given ten questions on databases and I'm having difficulty with some questions- would any of you be able to help me please?

The three questions I'm struggling on are;

1. Describe the characteristics of a primary key and how primary keys are used to build relationships
2. An explanation of referential integrity
3. How to ensure integrity of the database when records are deleted

Any help will be much appreciated as I'm really struggling :( [IMG]http://www.facepunch.com/fp/ratings/heart.png[/IMG]

Characteristics:
1. Unique - no duplicated data within the key column
2. Accessible - It's readily available when the data is created and accessed
3. Always existant - pretty much what it says
4. Factless - The key itself does not contain any specific information about the given record.

My brain is failing me on coming up with a definition for referential integritys, will try and dig up my old Computing work and see if I can find a sound definition.
