Remember to keep an eye on my Ko-fi page cause I'm gonna post updates there about my game(s).

So which donation system should I use?
-
You're all probably right. A donation was in my mind as well.

How about I make special discs with physical bonuses?
-
A few.
When my game gets finished I would like to sell it like a traditional game to get money for my work. Can I sell it here then?
Also if possible I would like to make a set of discs that can run on retail Xboxes.

I'm wondering about that too when it was released.

Bump*
I haven't tested it yet on my engine but I believe it'll be more working using this method than a bunch of for-loops.
#include <iostream> using namespace std; class CObject { public: void ExecuteDeb(int num) { printf("Printing! %i ", num); } }; class CObjectLinker { public: CObject* objs; int numObjs; CObjectLinker(int num) { numObjs = num; objs = new CObject[numObjs]; } void StartExecute() { int number = numObjs; keepExecuting(number); } void keepExecuting(int& curNum) { objs[curNum].ExecuteDeb(curNum); curNum--; if(curNum < 0) return; keepExecuting(curNum); } }; int main(int argc, char *argv[]) { CObjectLinker linker(4); linker.StartExecute(); }
This was a test to see if I can execute multiple objects with a countdown method instead of the usual. If And For/While takes some speed away when used a lot so I was experimenting and came up with this. Any thoughts?
This code ain't good apparently. It looks decent but apparently it's no good for the engine to have this in it. Guess for loops aren't too bad after all?

Here's a model. I don't think I can do a lot about it but share it right now.
-
I'm on a Mac so I can't do a lot with the assets for now but I got the resources out from the archive. The models seems to be mdl files but I'm not sure which structure they're built from.
I got the .ipa file from here btw. Gonna have to play the game myself to get the game's feel correct.
-
It isn't a code problem rather than an assets problem involving getting the models and such out of the game. I've never done that before and the game is also an iPhone app.

Can someone rip the resources from the iOS game Doom Resurrection for me? I would like to do a port of it for the OG Xbox. From scratch and improved.

It works decently now. Had it crash a bunch of times until I figured what the problem was.

Using Line/Ray casting in the A* system proved to be useful.

But the casting isn't that great and I need to figure out why.

Have a look.

Has errors unfortunately but it goes somewhere. Also using line/ray casting to detect if the NPC's path is open.

Made an editor for making node placing and connections files. It's called the Crisp Editor (Cause it's one crispy editor).
It's unfinished but it's doing it's job well. I think.

When I was interested in a full 3D game engine for the OG Xbox, I wanted to do a simple technique that Conker Live and Reloaded did with facial expressions. The mouths where 3D, but the eyes where 2D textures with 2 stages. It's not shape group based (I think) but uses bones for the mouths and textures for eyes like the outside and the inside of them.
There might be an 8 for this. When I finish my own skinned mesh renderer and animator then I will do this. Seems to be the best looking way to me.

Thank you! Didn't know the tutorial had a typo in it.
I tested the code and I think it works better now. But I still think the nodes and their connections are messed up so I'll need to fix those somehow.
-
A tip for textures. Use dds files for everything cause they're the most built for DirectX applications and games. And even if they take up storage size, they're still optimized for the memory.
You might already know this but I felt like adding it here anyway.
-
I did some changing to the code and it seems to work a bit better now. But it's not predictable enough and it might be the node grid that I made that is not set up correctly. Gonna make a new graph and changing to other parts of the engine's code to make it easier to work with.

maybe, (when i find a moment) wheres the latest code?
Here.

I've just come back to this.

When spawning bullets it's important to have some pre-made projectiles. Cause if the creation of the projectile is complex and/or long then it could slow your application down. I learned to use something called "Pools" to prevent performance loss from Unity's tutorials.
