[QUOTE=Ortzinator;21855361]For the analogy to hold up you'd not only build the engine, but design it from scratch, and probably with limited knowledge. Probably wouldn't be very useful, and you would have no basis for improvement.[/QUOTE]
You'd have your very own engine design as a basis for improvement. That'd kick ass. Anyway nothing is stopping you looking at other engines.
Who said anything about useful, if you're trying to get a car built, designing your own engine is probably a stupid idea, but if you just want to mess around, and potentially have a project to throw at universities/jobs designing and building your own engine would be kick ass.
As for this whole engine discussion:

He clearly took a screenshot, pasted it into paint.net, and saved it using that.

No really, haven't said anything in a while :v:
On another note, I hate Intel 845 IGP's. Unfortunately, I have to support them. You know what I hate more? Coding something in OpenGL and having it work on my machine, then testing it on a non-local machine with an Intel 845 IGP and it renders my textures white (probably failed to upload them) :bang: Fortunately, I [b]believe[/b] I know what caused it, and I fixed it, so today lets hope my text actually shows up :v:
Still haven't started learning OpenGL. Please bombard me with links, comments, criticism, why DX is better/worse, whatever.
[QUOTE=Parakon;21868681]guys I don't know how to multiply in flash as2 you guys
[code]onClipEvent (enterFrame) {
if (_root.intelxp >= _root.intelmax){
_root.intelmax += _root.intelup;
_root.intelup*2
}
}
[/code][/QUOTE]
I'm sure someone can help me with this, it's got to be the same in other languages, _root.intelup*2 is suppose to multiply the value of inteup by 2, but it doesn't.
Would using an SQl database for a map format (for my tile engine) be a good idea? What would be a good way of defining the maps and such?

For maps, a better idea would be to use some kind of file-based (binary) serialization. Most languages support some form of this.

I came.
Sorry for the awful 720p quality, if anyone could point me out to a good codec to encode with, I'll reupload the video =)
xvid has always worked well for me with Youtube
I've started learning XNA with C#. I'll probably start porting my half finished AS3 RPG to C# so I can do things AS3 would bail out at.
[QUOTE=NovembrDobby;21879006]xvid has always worked well for me with Youtube[/QUOTE]
I second this. I would recommend XVid to anyone who wants excellent quality yet a small file size. I use it for everything.

return EXIT_FAILURE;
//sukuriam spraita
sf::Sprite Spraitas(gwen);
Spraitas.SetPosition(200.f, 100.f);
Spraitas.SetScale(2.f, 2.f);
Spraitas.SetCenter(0, 0);
//Loopas
while (App.IsOpened())
{
// Procesuoti eventus
sf::Event Eventas;
while (App.GetEvent(Eventas))
{
// Uzdaryti langa
if (Eventas.Type == sf::Event::Closed)
App.Close();
}
// Get elapsed time
float ElapsedTime = App.GetFrameTime();
// Isvalyti ekrana
App.Clear();
// Parodyti ka turime
App.Display();
// Parodyti foto
App.Draw(Spraitas);
//Screenshoto funkcija(IS TUTORO)
if (Eventas.Key.Code == sf::Key::F1)
{
sf::Image Screen = App.Capture();
Screen.SaveToFile("screenshot.jpg");
}
}
return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}[/code]

I can't help think of that music being used in a porn film, hilarious.
I just have a picture in my head of some people having sex, then suddenly they turn with a teethy grin and hold their thumbs up, swaying their heads to the music.
