Warper - Sci-Fi Beat-em-Up
I noticed a few flaws in the groundwork I used to make Sorcery of Uvutu PC and Gateway to Legend . I noticed my rendering system was basically me just asking SDL to render an image rotated around its physical center. There's no changing the center, grouping images, applying filters, do real-time or pre-rendered animations, or anything like that.That pushed me to write [url=https://gi...

Gateway to Legend [pc]
Gateway to Legend is an open-source Puzzle-RPG. The main focus of the game will obviously be solving puzzles to get experience, as any Puzzle-RPG would have it, but the mechanics that make this game unique is that most puzzle mechanics will be based off doors or gates! Switches and door pairs allow you to gain access to rooms, teleporters provide gates between two places on the map, and more! It also supports the development and easy integration of user-generated content, as well; you can make p...

OpenGL Terrain Discussion
I would like to design and texture a landscape in blender, and then render it in a custom openGL engine. designing the landscape is pretty self explanatory, however i don't get how to "brush" on materials onto the landscape. The engine should know what texture to use for each face (and thus have vt texture coordinates), but also know what material the object is made for in order for walk sound and stuff like that. This is what i mean by "landscape", excluding houses, trees, grass, an...

Open World Engine for RPGs (OWERPG?)

Alpha-mapping is used to shade different ground textures onto the ground mesh. (the ground is a mesh, not a hightmap, to allow for more freedom.) I am also programming some sort of "construction set", which currently allows you to edit some values of the cell, adding/removing/manipulating prefabricated objects in the cel...

A Python Library for Uniden DMA Scanner Communication
Because I like RS232, I'm writing a Python library for RS232 communication with Uniden DMA scanners (BR330T, BC346T/XT, BCD396XT). Being 5 lines long in an early stage of development, I don't have a whole lot to say about it, but in the end it should allow complete programming and monitoring of the scanner via serial, and maybe even include a simple bridge for TCP/IP relaying. It'll be more of a SDK with a demo included once it's done. This will be a progress thread as I figure out an inc...

Well, that title doesn't make any sense, so I'll explain obviously.Basically, in C, you can have a function. int min(int a, int b){ return a<b ? a : b;} Great, but that's in the .c, in the .h you only have this: int min(int a, int b); Which means "that function exists, you can use it, and since it is probably documented you don't need to have its code to know what it does so just use it and don't look at the code".Now, I'd like to do the same with a type.
