usually "form" refers to a chunk of UI code, so I assumed it means something dealing with UI. I could be wrong through

Yeah, that's how I usually here it used as well, but it doesn't seem to fit with the way it appears in that diagram. Sounds like it's being used as a replacement for "component"
yeah, it's kind of weird that everything seems to inherit from 'Form', but a lot of the classes that result from it do look like they could be UI components....
@thedaian not everything inherits TESForm, in fact there are many other base classes in that diagram like BGSCollisionLayer, anyway I think there are far too much classes in that game! it seems to be a case of inheritance overuse.
@JoshPetrie "Form" refers to any object which can be manipulated by the scripting engine; BaseFormComponent is something like a base class for all of them (it has just a constructor, destructor, Init(), Free(), Clone() and Compare() methods).
And no ... you don't see any "components" in the modern meaning here. Every single different kind of object is defined by multiple inheritance. Every. Single. One.
It's like the worst kind of 20th century game design, in a game from 2011. :D
Driving a cab has taught me an interesting skill. I'm getting better and better at debugging code without sitting in front of my computer. I've solved a ton of bugs, simply by going over the code in my mind, as I drive around.
I guess the reason I do it in the cab, is probably because I have hours upon hours of complete silence, except for the radio. Gotta occupy myself somehow.
Other than that though, the apartment is awesome. 115m² of space, 4 rooms besides the kitchen and toilet/shower and a 15m² terrace. A bit much for a single guy, but it means I have my own electronics room, a roleplaying/computer room, a bedroom and a big living room.
Yeah, you should move to Denmark then. We only have very few ghettos and it's mostly just gangs shooting each other, they leave other people mostly alone.
if i somehow become a successful indie gamedev, i'd probably move somewhere more in the country. mostly cause it'd be cheaper for more space, and i wouldn't have to worry about a long commute to get to work
@thedaian, Would asking for communities where you can find/request artists for your projects be a proper question for GD.SE? It's spot on as game development question, which for once isn't about programming.
@MindWorX possibly, there's already a few "how do i get art" questions out there, though, at least one or two with a good collection of links to art or places that aritsts hang out
Where's a good place to post to find a decent game artist to create a small number of 32-bit sprites? This is for an internal code war framework so it's minimal work - maybe a couple of hours.
Any suggestions where I should post to find someone to do this?
@DeveloperAaron you're welcome. there might be "better" ways to make windows (setting the object as semi-transparent, or setting it to use a certain material type), but the quick solution is just remove the 'window' part
it seems to me that if you work somewhere that does unity development, they'd have a copy of it on cd/dvd so you wouldn't have to re-download it all the time
But yea, I'm quite satisfied with my connection, 10/10 advertised, ~9/9 in effect, which matches the expected 10% overhead, all on copper, so no need to install fiber.
she sent you two emails prior to that though, saying "respond to this email and I won't break up with you", but you were too busy hogging all the bandwidth
I'm having trouble with the lighting (I have windows and the light wont go through). How do I get the light to proceed through the glass?
