Spore: Did you see this coming?

9th September 2008

LOL at the discussion on amazon.com. A lot of people kicking up a fuss -- but the only way it will change in the industry is if people stop buying DRM'd games.
Incidentally, have you seen amazon.co.uk? They are deleting the reviews as they come.

Spore: Did you see this coming?

9th September 2008

The concept is amazing, but the game is shallow and falls way short of my expectations. In hindsight, maybe I was unrealistic but the hype was incredible. DRM is a major turn-off - it is annoying to be 'rewarded' for purchasing games legitimately with such*snip*

Firefox 3.0

12th July 2008

Yes, and no. It is possible to make a simple browser in blitz, in fact there are several already. However page rendering is very complex, even before you start on javascript etc. so a complete browser "like firefox" would be very difficult.

This sucks....

Hmm. Be careful not to generalise. My sister's favourite game is Age Of Empires 2; she bought her own copy to play online. True, she's not a big FPS fan, but she did really like Portal.

What makes a LCD screen flicker?

30th June 2008

[quote=JL235]It might also be just cos the refresh rate is too low. People can notice flickering on 60hz monitors when they get used to them and especially if they use monitors with a higher refresh rate. Try raising it.[/quote]
This used to be a problem *snip*

What makes a LCD screen flicker?

30th June 2008

Sounds like you are out of Phase.
Do you see lines or patterns moving up/down the screen on a grey area, and flickering on a checkered area?
Use your monitors' calibration to fix it, under "image settings" or similar. On mine this is a little [~] sine wa*snip*

Nested Types Example

How to make types-within-types in Cobra -- this took me a while to figure out. Hopefully self explanatory if you are familiar with how the types work, with lists and pointers.

Vertical bar effect

20th April 2008

In cobra, you must set the target image in each command. I had to guess where the blitz SetBuffer ImageBuffer() commands were. Check the img and bar arguments added to the Rect() and DrawImage() commands.
Colour is set in the command too. Check ToRGBA() a*snip*

Its not showing *anything* because you are drawing everything in black. Not sure what it is *supposed* to look like. Lets look at the first bit
