Also let's end this discussion here, unless you want to attract GrandPC's wrath.

[QUOTE=DrLuckyLuke;39752875]How would you look if you were forced to live in a small cage full of your own shit and piss?[/QUOTE] I already work in a cubicle

So I'm making this story generator and this is what I have so far [IMG]http://i.minus.com/jtYBuoIbEBljm.png[/IMG] How do I add text on the top of the window bar (like where the tk is, I want to change the text and maybe add an icon of some sort) and how do I move the box below the Make Story! button? I'm also running into a problem where the story I generate doesn't show in the box. If I remove the box (or just not pack it), it would go right beside the Make Story! button. What I want it to do is to show up inside that text widget box every time, not as a live update but when the Make Story! button is pressed. In the code below I intentionally .pack() -ed the two outputs assuming that I needed them. Ignore any unused frames/pack.

[QUOTE=dije;39740885][t]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/41041550/Coding/C%23/OGLFV/yebetter.PNG[/t] Going to have a go at geometry shaders soon to displace the event horizon.[/QUOTE] As this is relatively smooth and has many small round features, wouldn't it be better to change the fragment depth instead? That's a honest question, I don't know how it compares to tessellated geometry in regards to performance.

Profiled my interpreter to find out that the bad performance was caused by a particular part of my code consisting of everything. There's no bottleneck. It's just spread out everywhere, equally slow. I guess it's determined to be a completely unviable language.

Trying to figure out github. So far this has been worse than pulling teeth. Could some one more simply explain it or link me to a better tutorial? So far I've been drudging through git bash commandline stuff that makes zero sense. EDIT: The tutorial I've found insisted that "The Windows GitHub program wouldn't make sense to you until you go so low level your face is in shit"

So far I've been drudging through git bash commandline stuff that makes zero sense.[/QUOTE] I'm having difficulties with some things as well, but I just use GitHub for windows and EGit(eclipse plugin, the plugin is what's causing difficulties as it doesn't do some things). Commit send a change to your local repository Push send all local commits to the external repository (GitHub etc) Pull pulls changes from the external repository to your local repository Clone creates a new local repository (I think) from an existing external repository

I just use the Windows GitHub program, it's actually really good. It also has command line if you really need it. They have some decent documentation.

What doesn't it do?

The UI clients for git always tend to do some questionable things, I'd recommend at least [url=http://git-scm.com/]learning[/url] about how git works even if you do use something like GitHub for Windows.

I have a horrible confession, I don't know my svn or git commands by heart. I'm lazy and just use tortoise* solutions because I don't care to learn the commands that much unless I'm on Linux. [editline]28th February 2013[/editline] Maybe it would be smart for me to do a no-tortoise March or something.

And from what I saw, your organization and coding was kickass - it's really cool how easy it was to add new functions. If you coded it in C++ or C it would be faster but it wouldn't most likely be cleaner. it's just a tradeoff.

[URL="https://bitbucket.org/Tamschi/components/"]I open-sourced my components framework from a while back.[/URL] It's very small, but maybe it's useful to someone. Clone [URL="https://bitbucket.org/Tamschi/components-bundle/overview"]this repository[/URL] for a solution with both the framework and a bit of example code.

It's considerably easier than writing an interpreter.

I don't know exactly about Git (too inconvenient), but TortoiseHg can manage paths (the remote equivalent) so it's likely that your GUI has that ability too, somewhere.

Apparently there isn't any support of Git for VS Express Edit: I don't understand git terribly well, but apparently most IDE's allow for an integrated workflow, meaning you click a button while coding to commit over doing some sort of command line wizardry. Someone who knows what they're talking about can elaborate perhaps, but VS express doesn't support third party extensions. Editer: You guys are so awesome (helping with git). It made my day quite better

What do you mean? Just download git and use it.

OH look SDK updates [img]http://puu.sh/2ac9f[/img] Let me just install those [img]http://puu.sh/2acat[/img] Wat

Run the SDK manager or whatever it's called (or Eclipse, if you're doing from it) as an administrator.

[QUOTE=Tamschi;39755827] Have you thought about making a CIL compiler? It's considerably easier than writing an interpreter.[/QUOTE] Knowing nothing about it, I have a feeling that that means my language has to greatly resemble C#. As in, for has to be a loop, not a function. What about CodeBlock objects? How do I explain those in CIL? I don't know what I'm talking about though.

RakNet is so fucking awesome. Easily the best library I have ever used. I've been using it for 5 years now and I absolutely love it. Just wanted to get that off my chest.

[QUOTE=Electroholic;39758995]RakNet is so fucking awesome. Easily the best library I have ever used. I've been using it for 5 years now and I absolutely love it. Just wanted to get that off my chest.[/QUOTE] I looked it up and I can see why. It has some pretty great integration with a lot of things. It's a shame it's C++, but disregarding that, I really like what it offers.
