    Call for help: Quad-Ren cross platform testing.

    QR *Should* be platform independent as it only uses cross-platform libraries, however I have only tested it on Linux, and when benjymous tried to compile it with MSVC (thread on the other forum, unfortunately not assessable right now) the engine was crashing in the libpng code, which suggests...

    Should I Use Stl Containers?

    As OpenGL requires a C style array for glVrtexPointer() and related functions, a dynamic array is necessary. I was wondering if the use of STD::vector here would create any major performance decrease, and should be creating this with new/malloc instead. Thanks.

    2d Vector Collision Detection

    Say I have a vector[V1], which over one frame moves to the point[V2]. Slap bang in the middle of the two points is a triangle, defined by the points P1, P2 and P3, The problem is that V1 is moving so fast it completely skips over the triangle. The solution that I have come up with is to take...

    Rotating A Vector Around Another Vector

    Say I have a 2D vector 'C' which is located at (0,0), and a second 2D vector 'O' which should 'orbit' around 'C' at angle 'A' and at a distance of 'D'. How would this be implemented? Preferably without using matrices, as they go strait over my head :(. Thanks.

    Compressing/decompressing Image Data In Real-time

    I have a 2D game which is currently written using Irrlicht, and am thinking of re-writing in SDL. An ongoing problem Ive had with it is the very high ram usage(around a gig), this is partly caused by Irrlichts power of 2 limitation(hence re-writing in SDL), requiring the use of a large amount of...

    Uniform Command Line Interface Across Emulaters.

    Just a suggestion, if all the emulators have a uniform CLI interface, at least as far as ROM loading goes. CODE emulator /path/to/ROM.whatever It would be easy to create a graphical front end that asotiates a extension with a specific emulator. because of this having a unique ROM browser in...

    Dsp Can Play Mp3, What About Flac/ogg?

    There has been allot of discussion on the dsp being able to play mp3 in some lo power mode. but what about a format that actually sounds good like FLAC? for me mp3, no matter what bit rate, always sounds very 'tinny' in the high frequancys.

    Movement Physics In 2d Platformers

    firstly this is not currently running on the gp2x, partly because I don't have one, partly because its programmed using irrlicht and partly because it uses600-700 meg of ram for storing a large number of quite high res sprites :lol:. I am making a 2D platformer called "(don't) squash the...
