slop is now officially in gentoo's main tree: [url]https://packages.gentoo.org/packages/x11-misc/slop[/url] Stallman would be proud. :dance: [editline]asdf[/editline] I've also been working on porting slop and maim to Wayland, but I found out that Wayland clients are completely blind to one another as a "feature". There's no way for slop to query for window positions, and there's no way for maim to grab pixel buffers from anywhere. So slop and maim can't really exist in the new linux world.

oh hell yes I made it into the highlights. didn't do any cool programming but whatever :D

i cant believe my stupid ass horse made it into the hightlights

Hey I got a job too :( But on lighter news I am close to 1.0ing my component entity system. After some really shitty benchmarking against some other C++ ECS (specifically EntityX) I have some numbers: With 100k entities, 1/3 of which contain the components I wanted, EntityX took 194 seconds to iterate and manipulate them 20k times. My framework did it in 72 seconds, but it did it 200k times. So that;s like 27x speedup, which is pretty rad.

More fun with map editing today, implemented the ability to position objects [IMG]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9317774/maturity.PNG[/IMG] [IMG]https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/9317774/nosurprises.PNG[/IMG] As well as scaling, and save/loading. Next up is deleting objects, then rotating objects, and procedural grass/tree placement, then I'm using this badboi to make a real map

Highlights fit for a king, thank you

[QUOTE=cam64DD;51759671]i cant believe my stupid ass horse made it into the hightlights[/QUOTE] I'm a little bummed that my project didn't

i'm also a little bummed that i didn't get into the highlights but then again i don't even remember posting anything

Ah screw it here you guys go the pre 1.0 release of my Entity Component System called EntityPlus! The github README is out of date and inaccurate, there are no tests except some meta programming ones in improper locations, the sample code is a benchmark attempt, there is barely any documentation, there is no non-exception support, I'm not sure if the exception support works either, I'm not sure if anything works the way it should, I'm not even sure if all the code compiles. The good news is it's header only! So without further ado, here you go: [url]https://github.com/Yelnats321/EntityPlus[/url] If you guys have any questions or criticisms I'd love to hear them, been working on this for a while so I'd love some feedback. There's also an event management system that is tied into it but you can probably figure it out (if it compiles and works). There's a lot of template magic so I assume MSVC 15+ needed, and probably any Clang/GCC version. Some dependent typenames may not be qualified too since MSVC is too lenient (but getting better!) so let me know about that too. A tiny example of how to use the library: [cpp]#include <iostream> #include <entity.h> // Wha wha wha no CRTP? struct pls { int x; }; struct download { float y; }; int main() { // Using verbose typelists has never been funner! using comps = entityplus::component_list<pls, download>; using tags = entityplus::tag_list<>; entityplus::entity_manager<comps, tags> em; auto ent = em.create_entity(); ent.add_component<pls>(3); ent.add_component<download>(2.3f); // Holy crap check out those lambdas that's insane! em.for_each<pls, download>([](auto ent, auto &p, auto &d) { p.x += d.y; }); // What a modular design! std::cout<<ent.get_component<pls>().x<<"\n"; }[/cpp]

My SDL2 C++ game is coming along quite nicely. XML parser I wrote loads up the Glee2D maps and inserts physical objects into a quad-tree which is used for both rendering and collision checking. I guess that'll be useful when I actually have a decent test map.

Posted 262 times? Ridiculous, I don't get obsessed with things ha ha hahaha ha (I always get that mention, be it a thread I frequent or a chat channel - I like to talk :v) Coworker practically pulled a "Should've had a V8!" slap on me when he saw me writing a config file system and asked why the hell I wasn't using Boost. Good question, because after 30 minutes with program_options and I've made more progress than I had in all the time of building my own system. So, yay I guess? [editline]edited[/editline] Of course, now I'm inundated in the amount of things Boost offers and doing the usual thing: finding ways to pointlessly insert it and use it in my various projects. Circular buffer seems like a neat thing to try to chunk management in my voxel engine, for example.

[QUOTE=Fourier;51760004]If anyone had problems with GITlab and other services: [url]http://checkyourbackups.work/[/url][/QUOTE] Man, that's incredibly ironic

I finished my first real project, I guess. At least one that's going to be used professionally, where I work. It's basically a glorified batch, but I decided to fuck myself over and write it all in vb.net, which presented me with some challenges I was glad to overcome. This is going to be used at our Help Desk, since we usually have around five computers to work on at the same time, this can run stuff while we solve other problems. I designed this with my boss' help, so it doesn't look amazing... But it's also my first project ever ever to reach this state of conclusion and again, I'm kind of proud of myself. [t]http://i.imgur.com/91phxkp.png[/t] My boss approved and it's running hot around our office. I like it.
