Re: How to fix fps?

I limit the fps in my game to 60 at the moment when it's running in windowed mode but without using the sleep method. If another window is focused I use the sleep method to hold the CPU usage very low but still have around 60 fps. I don't know whether the solution is good but works for me.

Re: Direct3D 9 different resolutions

Thanks, at the moment I do it in a similiar way. It works well for the GUI elements but the hard part is the ingame one. I want to focus on multiplayer gaming and it is possible but veeery confusing to resize everything from 1920x1080 back to resolution the user uses then back up to 1920x1080 send i...

Direct3D 9 different resolutions

Hi, I'm currently working on a 2D game. I write everything myself and don't use Irrlicht (I know it's the Irrlicht forum but you guys look like you can help me more than the people in any other forums). I used a function to resize every picture in the game for every resolution which is very hard to ...

Re: Windows 8

It's javascript and not java as far as I know. So there's no jvm because javascript is not the same as java.

Thanks to all of you. I forgot about the press section at some games. I'll take a look at these and do it this way at first. If some games don't have such a thing I'll write an E-Mail to them. I'll also make a function as mentioned before to add own games to the website and update it so it can get f...

I want to try to make a website where you can rate games and see updates for them etc. you should be able to post your own game with images but the famous ones should be added at first and I can't send an E-Mail to every publisher and wait for response. The website includes much more than rating gam...

I know that they're automatically copyright but is it allowed by giving their website? Like using images from warcraft and write there that all images are from and then giving the studio and the website.

I don't want to violate the copyright so I ask.

Copyright

Am I allowed to use images of other games or websites (like the logo or screenshots) on my website for a game without asking them? Of course, I'll add the link and who made the images.
It should be something like rating other games.

I have already seen the changes in the devblog ;) By the way, nice video :D Do you remember me? - team is auto-assigned on join server I like that in general but you shouldn't get switched when you die. Just when you join the game. It isn't very good when you built a big castle and then you get swit...

Nice changes! New suggestions: - kick/ban vote (if a player destroys the own base or brings gold to the other team) - fix the archer bug (by holding the right mouse key and clicking the left mouse key instantly) - fix the knight bug (if you die when you clicked the left mouse button everybody who wi...

It's fun to play with more people but I don't like thatyou can't destroy something with the archer. When you attack alone and someone blocks you you can't do anything.
Are you still working on it?
Will you release the source code? I like them ;)

Oh, nice! Didn't know that. I tried a few things which said you can do that but they didn't work for me. I'll test it later...

I'd use C++ for game programming because you can use it on all platforms and it's the basic language imo. It is easy to learn other languages after you learned C++. The only bad thing is that learning C++ takes long and it's hard to understand everything at first. I don't like Python very much (I ju...

Very nice! I found a bug and a problem. You should not be able to build a cube into yourself because then you can watch through other cubes. And when you join a server and see a name of another player you can log in with that name and can do whatever you want. When that player collected many things ...
