• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Camera Mouse-Look Algorithm

  Hi, I'm writing a camera class and have gotten just about everything laid out. But for some reason, when doing the Mouse Look method (basic first person shooter look around), I get completely screwed results. The camera never seems to properly orient itself and something is very wrong. I've checked my algorithm a dozen times and I can't figure out what's wrong. If anyone can tell me, I'd appreciate it. Here are my MouseLook and Orthonormalize methods: public static void MouseLook(float x, float y) { // Rotation speed is always 0.001f and I've also substituted the Object's 'Up' and 'Right' Matrix xRot = Matrix.CreateFromAxisAngle(Vector3.Up, x * rotationSpeed); Matrix yRot = Matrix.CreateFromAxisAngle(V ...Show All

Can you use game components almost just like designer-based controls Like, create labels Could you tell me how then, so I can just put up with not using the designer ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Fixed Function Pipeline

  Removing the fixed function pipeline is simply a bad idea. Lets face it, as an indie-developer, we are targeting 3 year old intel on-board chipsets... maybe the fixed pipeline is available via effects files I have a nice little terrain engine in C++ - using DX8 - most users don't even have the big nine installed - that I would like to port over to XNA... it uses the fixed function pipeline and can blend 2 textures per patch via a coverage factor and modulate this with a shadowmap (if there are 4 blend stages)... and runs with high framerates even on intel on-board. For older hardware with only two stages, it simply do two passes. So for indie-developers, wo loose 95% of our target audience due to the removal of the fixed function pipeline ...Show All

• Visual C# Override Attribute

  It’s possible override a attribute Example: public class CBase { [DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Content)] public virtual int Prop { get { } set { } } } public class Test : CBase { [Obsolete("Dont use this property!", true)] [DesignerSerializationVisibility(DesignerSerializationVisibility.Hidden)] public override int Prop { get { } set { } } } This is don't work, any ideas Thanks in advance Yes you can override attributes but it doesn't necessarily mean it'll work in all cases. For example if you override the CategoryAttribute it'll work (I believe). It really depends upon the caller. The callers can opt to retrie ...Show All

• Windows Forms Display text in an ownerdrawn listview - again.

  Hello, The concept goes like this: The user selct n number of rows in a listview, and then right-click the mouse, and select an item from the popup menu. How many items - and which one - the user selected, and the text to display in the columns 1, 2 and 3, is determined in the sub shown below. So far, so good.The problem is that I can't see a way to get the text into the listview, and I don't know what triggers the DrawItem event in this case - control is Ownerdrawn. I would be grateful for some hint to point me into the right direction in this matter.

• SQL Server 2000 active x doesn't work in 2005

  I have an active x script written in vb that just counts the records in a table and fails the step if there are not enough records. It is simple and effective. But when I transfered this task to my SSIS package I get a function not found error. I am not familiar with active x or vb script so I have no idea what is wrong. I can do without while I build the package but I need it in the end to prevent possible problems.... Here is the script...

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) Bug? - .Net sensitive to the ordering of parameters in the HTTP Content-Type header

  Hi everyone I'm doing some web service interop testing with Apache Axis, and we've discovered that the ordering of the properties in the Content-Type http-header seems to be an issue to .Net. .Net doesn't add the (optional) action parameter to content-type, but so does Axis, which causes some trouble. A http Content-type:    application/soap+xml;charset=utf-8;action="myAction" is ok to .Net, but not a:    application/soap+xml;action="myAction";charset=utf-8 Since I can see nothing in the specifications about the parameters needing to come in a certain order, I would think that this is a bug in .Net. Could that be right Some nice 'ol links to the definition of Content-Type and action: [1] http://www.w3.org/ ...Show All
