Re: [UPDATE 3.5]Angry Square

Hi, I know this is a little bit of a random question; When I downloaded angry square I was able to run it on my college computers (which dont have Direct x installed as far as I am aware) However when I try to run my exe's that I have made I get the error of "not a vaild win app" or something like ...

Re: Suspicious.Cloud.7.F???

Well, I wouldn't say its a serious problem, since most programs you download today anti viruses get a kick out of.

Glad you sorted it.

Re: My first Game

natox1986, Your caution has made you miss out on one epic game. :o

It'd be awesome if there was sound effects.

Nice work. I bet it taken some time to make.

Re: Suspicious.Cloud.7.F???

You're code won't be making the problem, Or it's at least a extremely slim chance.. It could just be because its given a "Trusted Signature" as some anti-viruses complain about, They are normally just picky, When I ran Norton, I had to stop it complaining about me using Google Chrome. A way around i...

Re: DrawBackground function

No need to be sorry. I appreciate a good debate. It helps me think about things. :). Same here, But sometimes, a young forum roamer will take offence, and I'm not here to argue. I'm just still hoping I got all that math correct, I was rather tired.. :lol: I was just trying to make the point, drawin...

Re: DrawBackground function

Thanks for spotting my little error ;) I can see what you mean, for a beginner to use this with the unoptimized PutPixel then there game will poop all over the place, then explode.. A lot.. I don't think you realized what I meant, by it being harmful to the frames.. A game I am working on uses rough...

Re: It randomly started crashing?

That is quite strange. I've downloaded your project and it ran fine for me. Isn't it just. I'm starting to think he might need to install/reinstall DirectX SDK(June 2010) or check if his color is set to 32 bit in this control panel some place.. I can't remember where... :? But the same error he rep...

Re: It randomly started crashing?

Mine gives the exact same output as in that video, but mine runs.. What version of DirectX SDK do you have and what version of windows do you run ( 32bit or 64bit )?

Re: It randomly started crashing?

That is rather strange, Everything is initialized in the constructor that is in Game.h, if you comment out the contents of ComposeFrame, will the window open to a blank screen and hang, without crashing? I'm gonna assume that the framework runs out the box, but something in your code making it unhap...

Re: DrawBackground function

Chilli adds defines into the newer versions of the framework for the platformer. D3DGraphics.h: #define SCREENWIDTH 800 #define SCREENHEIGHT 600 So I would say for the sake of ease, This would be better, because if you change the window size, the background will be one less thing to think about chan...
