TD – not so much left now

Severe memory leak detected and fixed. Life, cash and points working. The three different towers works.
Need work: High score save and print. Tower cost. Win and lose conditions. Configure file. And probably something more that I can’t remember.
I found out that I had a pretty severe memory leak, about 10 MB per second. Creating new textures each update without freeing their memories after is bad.

Spelprogrammering – Assignment – 15

Today I’ve managed to get the Animations for the ball that is read through a text file to work. It looks great!
I also got the directional bouncing (the x-direction of the ball changes depending on where it hits the paddle) to stop accelerating in infinitum, and works “OK” right now. It’s at least a improvement from the old code.
Back to GameStates, ugh. I’m still not quite sure how to implement this -> I’ll try to get some help tomorrow.
So, Animations […]

Components

I’ve been meaning to blog something for quite some time now, but I haven’t really had the time and when I had the time I was going through some personal stuff. Basically my wife left me right before Christmas, it hasn’t been easy since then, but now I’m going to try and pick up the slack. Now that’s not what this blog is going to be about however, I want to write about a pattern that we are using in […]

Yes post today

So, to recapitulate on yestrurday’s work, I fixed the issue of not being able to switch between animations.  Now, i won’t say that i am fully able to differentiate all the different variables with “animation” and “current” in them but when creating the animation the first time i use this piece of code
void TurtleObject::AddAnimation(const std::string &name, AnimatedSprite *Sprite) { m_animations.insert(std::pair(name, Sprite));   if (m_sprite == nullptr) {     m_sprite = Sprite;     m_current_animation = Sprite;  }}
And when changing animations i used this […]

Programming assignment 2014-01-15

Today I implemented animations and sound control to the new updated, as I said yesterday there were some problems to make it work. But thanks to my teacher I got it working. I had to use something called casting to cast the animation to the sprite the player had initially. 
For the music part; I added The option to lower the volume to a third of it’s previous volume. Don’t really know why I cant lower it more than once but […]

Game Programming I – Assignment day 21

More work on collision.
Moved overlap method to collider class, it checks box vs box collision.
Also made a overlap circle method that checks overlap between two circles.
Need to add the collision manager into this and make things happen when collision occurs rather than just a cout line.
I should also make an Entity manager that handles all the game objects.

Day 19 (or rather night)

I worked half the night last night with adding different kinds of collisions. We already have a simple Box vs Box Collision. I moved the code that checked overlap between the boxes from the BoxCollider class to a function in the CollisionManager. I then added a CircleCollision class that holds one X-Y position and a radius.I also added two functions in the CollisionManager to for check of overlap between circle vs circle and box vs circle. With all in place, […]

Game Programming I – day 20

Overhauled the collision manager.
Colliders are now memebers of their objects.
Need to fix the overlap function in the collider class.
But first I need some sleep.

KreakOut #8 – Next time I’ll use MP5s

Our “Random Difficulty”-setting got a little less random with the introduction of a proper spawn for the ball, on top of the paddle where it belongs. It’s still pretty random at times, though.

So, except for the minor tweaks that we keep adding (this time it was things like lives, small ball-on-paddle change and some checks on when you win/lose), we also added support for sound! And this wasn’t an easy task, easily one of the more frustrating ones so far […]

Past midnight post… Woops were did the time go.

Today I did not get so much done, Though I’ve been thinking on how to create a few of the things that are left.
Ladbon managed to get the Collision working, so with that done, the Funsies begins of programming what happends when things collide.
With this important step done, it might quite soon actually start looking like a game!
Late night blogg post falling asleep…

Pogramming Project

Only a few days left before submission and we have some important parts left to work on.
Today i have been working on game music. we l have two different music clip. One for start state and one for the game state. We have also fixed so the music will replaying when it ends.
we will continue to work with Win-condition,Lose-condition, money system),Tower price, highscore system, and (pause game) .
