merry xmas everyone
it just ticked over midnight here
00:16
Banging my head against sprite scaling algorithms. Want to use one for something other than scaling a sprite. ;)
Merry Christmas all
00:32
merry christmas everyone
01:13
@Dave Hells yeah, the AE looks awesome
@William'MindWorX'Mariager Yeah, I normally get full shields by the 3rd sector and then upgrade my engine and pilot throughout the rest of the game.
@hasherr Yeah
Lots of zigzagging to get lots of resources.
I play with the Kestral though, so weapons are also a priority.
The key is to vegetize every ship you come across. Make sure that it can't interact with you and that it is absolutely helpless.
kestral is the one i use too
the two i unlocked i dont like
I unlocked the Torus as well.
Wow, second move in 1st sector and I already picked up a rock person.
i love slave traders
4
01:17
They're the best.
I love being able to see inside of the enemy ship.
Let's me know which parts I need to set on fire.
02:12
Dammit, lost again.
 
2 hours later…
03:50
@MickLH Thx.
@TheProgramm3r Totally obvious-- don't know why I didn't try it before :p
@Noctrine the starboard.
or should I say the poopdeck
Yeah, if anyone comes here for help during the holidays :\
Its really weird, because they are forcing you to be a voice of reason :p
 
6 hours later…
10:12
what
10:45
hey @AlexM.
sup juve
"children being forced" hahahah
that's my fav part
Hello @AlexM.
hi there joey
11:05
@AlexM. How its going?
11:20
okish
ho ho ho
merry christmas everyone!
Hello @VitaliusKuchalskis
This is my gift for you:
:D
It's not related to christmas, but I hope you'll like it
How can you look at that as a gift?
11:32
It is not mine
It doesn't has to be. My gift is a link to a song, that you may listen to. And maybe its positive energy will make you feel better :)
A gift you could give me would be complete a survey to give feedback on the website paccle.net
(My website)
Noone has done it yet
what have you done or are working on?
I mean what projects
games
you have any demos?
or maybe you could describe a few?
11:42
Are you noob to game programming?
Not offensive
I don't know where is the line of not being a noob anymore
so i dont know
what os do you use?
if you are on windows
you can try my old demo on java
Windows and for like 4 days ago I were on ubuntu
now i'm on ubuntu and i do c++, so that project is past
@VitaliusKuchalskis Why is it for windows only? Java is multi platform
11:46
Is it because of natives and things like that
Well i could make a demo for all platforms
but I needed more time for that
JAR SPLICE
and I also needed to test the demos on other platforms
yeah
i think i used it
Then you could just make on .jar file and it would work
on all platforms
yeah, but i wanned to make platorm specific demos
idk why :D
11:48
But youre definetly not a noob btw
you checked the game?
yes, pretty cool
I'm just in 2D stuff yet
I can't even make pacman
But someone is helping me
I have to go
sorry
:D
11:50
:-(
some other day
12:12
@joapet99 ok, I'm back
Ok... So you weren't long away
what environment do you use for game development? :)
Eclipse
Or do you mean the libary
Will you do the survey btw?
And language, library?
Java, LWJGL and Slick2d
Slick2d needs LWJGL to work
12:18
@joapet99 I think I did. I answered all the questions. And then some page loaded up. I think in german
I think that is just advertising for something
I learned a lot with lwjgl
I don't got very into it. It is so complicated
Your answer on the survey is registered :D
@VitaliusKuchalskis Why did you switch to Ubuntu for learning C++
Well it just gives you classes for creating a window, handling user input, access to OpenGL and a few other useful classes like Vector or Matrix
@joapet99 I really liked linux, because it's like an IDE itself, it's free and a lot of software for it is also free
you can do a lot from the command line and it's simple
I missed the game compatibility
12:25
I also missed it
But now I play more free games
small games
and a few big
like Warzone2100, Battle for Wesnoth
and another good thing is that I play less
and do more programming
and I switched to c++, because I wanted a lower-level programming language
i can't explain why, but I like it :D
I'm more of a game engine developer
@VitaliusKuchalskis How far have you got?
at the moment I'm not even working on a game engine
I want to make an online repository of a massive source code
where everyone can edit it
and give upvotes and downvotes for edits
I've made a font rendering library
and an image manipulation library
where you can create images, and edit each pixel by code
I'll use it for gui
I want to make something like html and css
where each component will be a class, which has an image.
@joapet99 what? :D
12:41
o.O for me means: OMG so advanced
actually many people in this chat are much better than me.
I think that in computer programming there's always something new to learn. And that is the fun part.
Like one in the chat said. New computer science is coming all the time so you need to learn for a lifetime
And still you do not know all of computer science or programming
Now I'm updating my previous games with new and better things
I got a better collision system when I tried to make pacman
Now it can handle multiple collisions
13:23
@VitaliusKuchalskis YAY! Collision system implemented
 
4 hours later…
17:32
I gots secret hatz

How was your Christmas?
got tea stuffs from parents, yay
17:53
tea?
Never tried tea. :\
you should
the winter gift set I wanted was out of stock though :(
Eh, more of a coffee guy.
but it's fine, I got the winter teas instead, along with a tea press and a nice loose leaf white tea
Alex's Christmas Note to Santa:
* Tea
* More tea
* Girlfriend
* Tea
nah, leave the girlfriend out
18:05
lol
if I were to choose something that came packed with recurring expenses
I'd choose a console
lol women
>> girlfriend
Nice!
So I think I'm going to be learning Monogame shortly.
I'd do XNA tutorials instead
I bet they're more complete
18:06
Mono
I want to learn how to make Mobile games with a platform I'm familiar with
sounds good
Mono is compatible with Xamarin, compatible with OpenTK, it's pretty much everything I've been looking for.
Xamarin Studio will let you make mobile apps with limited resources for free
Indeed.
But I think if I want to deploy any of my games I'd have to purchase a license.
might be
18:12
1 Free 30-day trial version of Xamarin. Paid version allows to deploy to app store and devices.
2 Paid license from Xamarin required to distribute/sell games/apps.
3 Paid developer license required from platform owner distribute/sell games/apps.
> Paid version allows to deploy to app store and devices.
> Paid license from Xamarin required to distribute/sell games/apps.
So yeah, I'd be forced to purchase. Solid $300, but I have saved up if something like this were to come up.
yeah
you need a license
@AlexM. I have best hat
Ugh... I get that Xamarin kind of owns the castle of C# Mobile Dev, but is unlimited app size really worth $300?
Notch, Stockholm, Sweden

LOL
I doubt it.
@Grey He answered a question the other day, his answer was correct.
:V
18:21
17
A: OpenGL limiting colors to 256 colors palette

NotchI am the creator of that image. The image on the right is rendered using a color look-up texture. In the final GLSL shader, I apply the dither, then convert the RGB values into integers in the range 0<=x<40, combine them into a single index, then look up the resulting color value in this image: ...

ITS NOTCH111!!1!!!!!!!11
He responded to somebody asking about an image that NOTCH HIMSELF tweeted.
@Grey Why do you doubt it?
@William'MindWorX'Mariager Its him :p
I don't I'm just having funz.
18:21
@William IS IT A CRIME
To have FUN
Stack Overflow seems easy to get rep on
It is never without unanswered quetsions.
True.
It's a good website.
I got a Nexus, this thing is sleek.
i didn't get shz for christmas
CUZ I DONT CEREREREREBRATE IT
I thot you were 'Murican?
Not all muricans participate in chrostmas
Christ.Miss
Yes they do. We're Muricans.
18:24
Christ.Mas
Are you not religious, Mr. Gray?
R u?
Because I know a lot of people who aren't religious who still celebrate Xmas, or at least the commercial part.
My family is; I'm not.
Programmer/People Dude/Hackathon Addict/Cool Dood
You? People Dude?
You can't even get a girlfriend.
18:27
I don't want one.
Boom. Fullstop.
I think i'ts time for a Dino Pizza Attack Reboot (TM)
Llool
@hasherr monogame
No, I mean finish Dino Pizza Attack.
I never did finish it.
I'll learn Monogame in a little bit.
Oh. In that case. FINISH HIM. (Mortal Kombat)
I'll finish DPA, write a few simple games in OpenTK just to get a feel for it and experience GL a little bit, finish my Android coursework on the side, and THEN I will write some games in Monogame.
I'd like to make money sometime in 2014.
And I'll be learning C++ in school. Oh my go.
18:39
@hasherr That's a good goal. I'm hoping the same.
My goal is to buy a pizza with money that I make from programming.
There we go, that's a solid goal.
@hasherr solid.
Grey, you could probably make your goal 2 pizzas, you're quite better than me.
Nah. We are about the same skill level haha.
1 PIZZA
:O
I doubt it. You made Down, after all. That looks like a damn good game.
18:45
In a Sandboxed Enviornment called Unity
Your point?
Making games in Unity after a while becomes easy and you don't really have to deal with the "nitty gritty"
OMG
@AlexM. :O
OHHHHHHHHHSNAP
downloading
@AlexM. screams like little girl
OH WAIT
MY COMPUTER SUCKS NVM
meh, bought the game 3 years ago or sth
18:46
Valve Complete Pack
sucked then, still sucks
is NOW FREE
@AlexM. Its fun. You probably played it too much.
and sucked the fun out of it
KF is more fun
wot is dat mayne
killing floor
18:47
Wait is free just for today or free forever?
BorderLands vs Killing Floor
Because if it's just for today I might as well buy it and play it some day when I have a better machine.
Then again, it is a valve game. I could probably handle it.
@hasherr what's your specs
VRAM and Graphics Card pls
You can probably run it.
if you get some FPS drop, then you need to mess around in the settings.
It's not gonna be pretty, Grey. My specs are not great for gaming.
4 GB ram, HD graphics family.
I have 6GB ram
Intel 3000 Graphics
18:51
Nice. I'd like to build a computer with 8 GB and a better card so I could play more games.
Same haha. You can probably play it. I don't think you've updated your graphics card though.
You should probably do that :o
After I visit all my family, I'd probably have enough money to build something with about $600, but it could be tight.
I can't update my Graphics card currently, my main machine is a laptop.
Regardless, I might as well pick it up while I can. A free game is a free game, right?
@hasherr You can :O
It doesn't involve taking things apart lol
Don't worry. You have to go to your providers website(whoever made your chip) and get an update =)
@hasherr *
must pay gaben
C# 5.0 in a nut shell is wrong. They say that local variables are always stored on the stack.
v_v
false
Everything is left up to the run time. Eric Lippert has a really good blog post on it, but I should probably contact the editor/author about this mistake.
"The Truth About Value Types"
I think it's called :o
19:28
Someone give me an algorithm to implement \o/
just play something
it's xmas
not even I am working on xmas
Yay steam finished L4D2
I'm going to work on DPA animation now.
19:44
hi
how are you
what's the topic
The topic?
what are you talking about
Not much, not many people are really here right now. I'm working on a game. You?
Im working on a game too
an android game
Nice! I hope to start making android games next year.
19:49
it's actually very similar to pc games
Hello
since phone are as powerful as pc are
hi
Nowadays, they are.
yes
It is just the beginning
19:53
But in 3D, they arn't that good, they better graphic cards, and processor
they need better*
They are working on it
I think
Yes, my phone is 4cors 1.5hz processor, 1080p, 4GB RAM, but It's not that good in 3D environment
Tablets are the middlemen in that situation.
But what about the controllers and the little screen. Is phones going to mean the future of games?
sorry it's not 4GB RAM but 2 GB RAM *
19:57
You have the power but not the engine
I think thats the problem
my phone use OpenGl 2.0
I think phone is the future of games
playing HD games everywhere, in the car, in the bus, it's the future
o.O I didn't know game engines were released for phones yet. But what about the little screen. It totally destroys the feeling of games
Ubiquitous computing is the future. Not necessarily phones.
what do you mean by game engines ?
Maybe a new type of phones: ES phones. are going to rule the world
@LeSam I think OpenGl is a game engine
19:59
not really
