still don't get it

DD/D3D I'm trying to create some DX graphics routines running in VB6. I have no experience with DX programming so I am struggling. Although I can already do what I want with pixel level formulae, my routines are like 100 slower than I need them because VB is notoriously slow at drawing graphics. So ...

Sarek. This is fantastic! 8O I love the tune you uploaded - a nice 'old wintery' feel to it. I want more!!!! :D :D what that old thing? :ehum: I've made 10 for you altogether. I did a load on Saturday. But I'll post just one or two at a time, so that you can properly review them. How about a nice h...

I did this towards the beginning of 2007 but with this n that happenning I never posted it and then I forgot about it until I found it earlier. So here it is... Over the past few weeks I've been searching the net for people's favourite ST games, and have been monitoring the forums for enthusiasm/re...

no progress?

Whether useful to you or not, here's a midi file that I wrote which you're free to use in your game if you want to.

If useful to you, then 20-odd more and you'll have your half hour.

Hey Skyline

Would like to have helped but I don't think I could manage an hours worth sorry.

UnseenMenace might be able to help you, he did some midi which won him a podium place in a national competition some time ago.

Yes... :) 8) From a 1st glance you're correct :P No I'm not Maartau! :lol: I should know better. God I hate probability. There are overlaps in this method. 123xxx A, 234xxx B, 345xxx C, 456xxx D, x123xx E, x234xx F, x345xx G, x456xx H xx123x I, xx234x J, xx345x K, xx456x L xxx123 M, xxx234 N, xxx34...

calculate B = number of permutations of 6 balls (=6*5*4*3*2*1) calculate A = number of permutations of the six in which any three balls appear in sequence. Required Probability = A/B * Probability of winning the lotto. Hope that gets you started. :) suppose the drawn balls are 1,2,3,4,5,6 in that or...

cant wait then, eh mug?

rts is actually is one of the few game genres I like. I can't stand fp shooters.

We've been waiting for this for years, but I am afraid that it's going to be a bit of a disappointment, apart from the vector graphics and half a dozen new units. It is due to be released in January 2008. THE FEATURES ------------ So what features will be a HIT or a MISS? For the Protoss, I think th...

of course, to round things to the nearest %, instead of rounding down (eg 199/100 = 1%) ... you add one half to the figure before you int it, or +50 before you divide by 100. In basic one uses the cint() operator. int pcamount=58; int value=1192; int amountofvalue=(value * pcamount +50)/100 Just a s...

The reason I asked is because in 1995 I came up with the idea of using the mains for computer networking and described it to my school physics teacher about using a small series capacitor to filter a data signal from the power lines. He said that it wouldn't work due to both signal degradation and t...

Just out of interest, when did powerline networking first start?

I think it is true

Or it might just be from the extended hours sat scrunched up on swivel chairs

Hey!!! Aly and I have the same number of posts

Simon's still peeling his orange

Worrying thing is, it says you have to be reborn to gain immortality, so god says to you "come here and will we kill you but promis to make you reborn", I mean whos gonna do that ?! Take the word of god that you will be reborn..... once your dead your dead! unless reborn means something else... I s...

Surely a tether that long would have a hell of a lot of weight. Any satellite it's connected to would have to have it's burners on constanly upwards and occasionaly adjust sideways to keep it's orbit position. Because of the weight of the cable, even though the satelite is weightless in space, the ...

I've just found this superb website. Not ST but I've wanted to find something like this for years.

There's alot of things we don't know, like when you think about someone that you haven't seen for years, then see them a few days later. Dejevous, and all those things. Weird occurences. ...like when I went to log into yahoo today and the on the home page there was a feature article on dejavous. 8O...

well its done :) but its just not worth running because its not even remotely interesting. :( It can simulate a variety of tether materials (including theoretical ones), through their true elasticities, energy absorbing potential, material densities, and tensile limits. It can simulate uniform cable...

I'm remaking my tether program. The problem you see is that it isn't just the satellite thats in orbit - every particle in the tether itself is tempted by gravity into it's own orbit. Things closer to the ground must normally move faster if they are to stay in a stable orbit, but the shorter distanc...

Has anyone else had this problem ? I am tired of using paste and want to use pads, but I cant get my pc to boot up with pads :( There may be several problems. Lateral thinking is the order of the day here I think... Hmmm... The pads mean that the cpu is held tighter to the cpu socket. Maybe it's a ...
