I am trying to implement the Cook-Torrance BRDF within OpenGL, but I keep running into issues. The most obvious one are black patches and a bright spot at (0, 0). I checked my shader multiple times, but I can't find what's wrong with it: the functions I use are in line with everything I've seen o...

It's a stupid question that is probably a yes, but I need to know.

I'm having problems with my A* algorithm. Here's what I have: Coordinate* Map::astar(int x1, int y1, int x2, int y2, int size) { Coordinate* return_path; if (!passable[x2/24000][y2/24000]) { // return with blank path if target is not passable return_path = new Coordinate[1]; return_...

I have being looking nodejs and c++, currently studying opengl. While studying this two languages I went thru their network libs and calls, so I wonder if it's viable and recommendable to use nodejs for a backend server to communicate with the database or should I use c++ for all?

So I have a graph, roughly grid shaped, that is about 300*300 nodes large. Even at this size, however, traditional a star takes 20 seconds to run in some cases. So I implemented an HPA* algorithm to shorten pathfinding time. HPA* looks somewhat like this, chopping up the graph into small chunks t...

I'm having problems solving IK with Jacobian Pseudoinverse method. What I do is: At each local joint frame q_i of the chain q calculate the cross product between rotation axis (taken from local transform) and joint-to-end-effector vector (end-effector is transformed to q_i coordinates): // f...

Currently in my game I have a large amount of sounds and am getting to the point where I need to find a way to reduce the overall size of the sounds to save space when I deploy.
