What Are You Working On? - August 2014

[helifreak]

After one month to the day of giving up on trying to figure out why my stencil buffer wasn't doing anything I found out that sfml sets the stencil buffer to 0 bits by default. Finally the cat has a non broken reflection.

3/4 of DarkEden's sprites are now fully editable.

really pumped right now about making a fully featured map editor and maybe even remake the game :dance:

Oh god what the.. What graphics card do you have and what OpenGL version does it support?
About the grey screen, i think it's because it's running on an nVidia card and i can't really do anything because i don't have such a card. The screen framebuffer doesn't get rendered at all.

I have a nvidia gtx 570, gray screen too. This may be of help:

NVIDIA's OpenGL driver has a known issue with using incomplete textures. If the texture is not texture complete, the FBO itself will be considered GL_FRAMEBUFFER_UNSUPPORTED​, or will have GL_FRAMEBUFFER_INCOMPLETE_ATTACHMENT​. This is a driver bug, as the OpenGL specification does not allow implementations to return either of these values simply because a texture is not yet complete. Until this is resolved in NVIDIA's drivers, it is advised to make sure that all textures have mipmap levels, and that all glTexParameteri​ values are properly set up for the format of the texture. For example, integral textures are not complete if the mag and min filters have any LINEAR fields.

But if the FBO is considered anything else than GL_FRAMEBUFFER_COMPLETE there would be an exception thrown, i'm checking for GL errors. I don't have a single idea why it doesn't work. Gonna check mom's computer, hopefully it doesn't work there.

I feel your pain with all these card-specific issues. I never managed to solve mine, good luck finding your bugs.

On a lighter note, works on my ATI 6950:

Running a GTX 680 driver version 337.88

Just started and looked around a little and it crashed with the following:

Finally started on the input. Left side will be movement, right side will control actions.
PC will be able to use a controller or keyboard, along with Android if LibGDX supports that.

When you get it all done, have you considered open sourcing it for others to use? Seems like it would be incredibly useful.

[QUOTE=proboardslol;45684654]So for my College STEM Club I had to put together a quick presentation to demonstrate some aspect of computer science. Unfortunately I'm not even technically a freshman yet since school starts a week from now. I am simply a highschool graduate. This task fell upon me because the STEM club is 99% Engineers, 1 meteorologist, and 1 CS major (me). So I threw this together in FREEBASIC. The framerate is a lot better than the video makes it look like, but VLC can't record that fast I guess

[vid]http://webmup.com/TPD0e/vid.webm[/vid]

after that counter in the top left hits 0 the blocks randomize and the marios go back out to re-organize them. It's not exactly the most advanced demonstration of AI, but its concept I guess. Little robots that can make something out of chaos.

I'm also making a poster :D it's like being in Highschool again!

edit:

i'd love some suggestions about what I can do now. I basically stole the concept from the super mario 128 demo:

generates empty lib files
