Looks like regular ol Winforms or WPF

DataGridViews are amazing, a friend wanted a program to track her doll collection with pictures and stuff, took a couple of hours. And then I made every title and whatnot changeable so I didn't have to do it manually because PropertyGrids are also fantastic.

Love C#, everything is so nice. I also drew that picture, it was also a request.

Added a treasure digging mini-game to my zombie game.

For testing purposes the places where the chest and crates are start off with small holes.

I also added an animation for reviving players.

This is my first time doing any sort of coding, but I think it's coming out all right.
Still a lot of work to do on sound effects, sprites and collisions.

Not directly, I kinda started with a pink room with two buttons in the middle, then added a screen. Then I tried to figure out some kind of puzzle from there, the turrets came after.

But Undertale has definitely gotten me back into this stuff. Last time I got about as far as character movement before forgetting about it. I think I've figured out a lot more now.

2D world portal idea:

The black region is where both hidden and non-hidden geometry overlap, the red region is the non-hidden geometry and blue is the hidden geometry.

Level geometry would draw over the shadows. The world portal "shadow" (yellow zone) would reveal the hidden area and it would be occluded by it but it would hide the non-hidden (red) area.

The rest is just casting normal shadows so it doesn't look weird and so you can't see inside the red box as that space effectively "does not exist" (it's a part of blue box).[/QUOTE]

This seems pretty neat. You could have pokemon style gameplay with house interiors being much larger than exteriors, but without the explicit transition.

I've implemented a similar thing before [media]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gDMfoXJk_Ks[/media]

I feel like a complete shit sometimes after browsing this thread.
I mean everybody does some awesome shit and I just sit here trying to figure out how to implement ideas from my dreams/imagination in game engine using it's native tools.

I should try and learn more.

Updated my blog post with matlab code to implement the two-stage least-mean-square optimized registration algorithm.

[url]http://thingsiamdoing.com/global-markerless-rigid-body-point-cloud-registration/[/url]

function [X_registered] = register(Y,X)
%Returns X aligned with Y, assuming Y = R*X+T

%%Coarse registration
    %Remove means from X and Y to center clouds about (0,0,0)
    Y_centered = Y - repmat(mean(Y,2),1,size(Y,2));
    X_centered = X - repmat(mean(X,2),1,size(X,2));
    
    %Self-Covariance matrices
    H_x = X_centered*X_centered';
    H_y = Y_centered*Y_centered';
    
    %Get eigenvectors/eigenvalues from covariance matrices
    [Vec_y,D_y] = eig(H_y);
    D_y = diag(D_y);
    [Vec_x,D_x] = eig(H_x);
    D_x = diag(D_x);
    
    %Order by largest eigenvalue
    D_y = D_y(end:-1:1);
    Vec_y = Vec_y(:,end:-1:1);
    D_x = D_x(end:-1:1);
    Vec_x = Vec_x(:,end:-1:1);
    
    %Determine coarse transformation matrix assuming X_eig*A = Y_eig
    A = inv(Vec_x')*Vec_y'
    
    %Transform x using this to get coarse registration estimation
    for i=1:length(X_centered)
        X_coarse(i,:) = X_centered(:,i)'*A;
    end
    
    X_coarse = X_coarse';  %Put it back in the expected format
    
%% Fine registration
    %Remove mean from X_coarse
    X_coarse_centered = (X_coarse - repmat(mean(X_coarse,2),1,size(X_coarse,2)));
    
    %Find closest neighbours and match them up using KD tree
    kdtree = KDTreeSearcher(Y_centered');
    %Find pairs
    [match, ~] = knnsearch(kdtree,X_coarse_centered');
    %Indeces of the paired points
    y_idx = match';
    x_idx = 1:length(X_coarse_centered);
    
    %Covariance matrix of X and Y in the matched-pairs-order
    H_xy = X_coarse_centered(:,x_idx)*Y_centered(:,y_idx)';
    
    %SVD of this
    [U,~,V] = svd(H_xy);
    
    %Calculate rotation and translation matrices
    R = V*U';
    T = -R*mean(X_coarse,2) + mean(Y_centered,2);
    
    %Transform X_coarse using these
    for i=1:length(X_centered)
        X_registered(i,:) = R*X_coarse(:,i);
    end
    
    X_registered = X_registered' + repmat(T,1,size(X_registered,1)); %%Add translation
    X_registered = X_registered + repmat(mean(Y,2),1,size(Y,2)); %add original mean
end

Can't believe that's the outcome of 9 months of work :v:

Started working with Love2D, figured that my experience with GLUA would help me with this engine!

So far everything has been great, I am making a simple game where you dodge enemies that are flying towards you.
(I intend to make it a little more advanced as a get used to Love2D)

Basically as the levels get harder and harder your ship gets bigger, which makes it more difficult to dodge the incoming blocks.

I created the art for a core ship and extensions on the ship and they actually turned out pretty awesome! I think I have a hand at this pixel art thing.

Here is the ship with it's different extension options:

I also realized that the art looks really good as favicons:

and finally the ship in game:

My Frostbite Editor now loads all maps correctly. I finally solved the rotation problem by realizing I used (fx,ry,fz) instead of (fx,fy,fz). Unity told me the entire time

I've also implemented outer terrain, roads, water, singleplayer loading, havok rotation and saving.

Now I just need to create an installer so you don't have to run multiple scripts to get the damn thing to work. I also need to reverse engineer the god awful shader database to get the correct shaders & textures.

[QUOTE=Winner;48949810]not that I would understand it either way but wow those are some really non-descriptive variable names[/QUOTE]

I don't agree really, they're all derived from context and as such pretty descriptive (and commented too). The only non-descriptive ones are the eigenvalues D_x and D_y but they're not actually used anywhere in the code so it's not really important.

I feel like no one should be able to comment on readability of some piece of code if they're not familiar with the domain.

[QUOTE=Winner;48949810]not that I would understand it either way but wow those are some really non-descriptive variable names[/QUOTE]

Would you understand any maths/physics/algorithmic/... book if you opened it in the middle? Probably not, no one can without background knowledge; same with this code. Lots of complex maths/physics based algorithms have a pretty consistent naming of variables provided that you are familiar with the field.

As you said, even if the variable names were transformationMatrix and translationVector and whatnot, you still wouldn't understand it: it would make someone [I]familiar[/I] with the field sigh because it's overzealous and reduces readability for [I]them[/I] and it would make someone [I]unfamiliar[/I] in the field still go "Wtf am I looking at". Good practices should be applied with common sense, not dogmatically.

Looking good man nice work :)

[DarKSunrise]

[t]http://files.1337upload.net/alphaa2-b984f9.png[/t]

adding four new $color vars: $secondarycolor, $tertiarycolor, $quaternarycolor and $quinarycolor

all of these have their own masks... but here's the cool thing

[t]http://files.1337upload.net/alphaa-de74db.png[/t]

to avoid additional textures, $secondarycolor uses the $basetexture alpha channel 0–51 range, $tertiarycolor uses the 51–102 range and so on

obviously the colors in the first picture are terrible since i'm testing it out, but the point is that we can randomize each of those colors during runtime to get more variation out of a single model

which is cool as fuck

[editline]21st October 2015[/editline]

without the above system we would have to use a single color for the whole model which is incredibly boring, don't you think

I converted my component definitions from using an oldskool pure-brute-force shittily-designed Lua table system to being classes and improved read/writeability a ton. No more "com.Members.Oscillator[2][2]", now its "self.Value" or "self.Oscillator.Value"

For this project I've been doing continuous refactoring, writing barebones examples and then progressively abstracting them further and further as I extend them, so that I add each level of abstraction as its implementation becomes obvious.
Do you guys do anything like that, or if not what's your workflow like?

yeah if it's not something immediately obvious
