Some second hand software
9th May 2007

It's hard to say which one is better, because they don't do the same things. OpenGL is only for rendering, while DirectX has support for audio, video and input etc.
If you want to compare Direct3D and OpenGL, I'm not much help, since I've never used Direc*snip*

Thanks, Agent Smith. I'll have a look at it.

Script Execution

Maybe I was unclear, I meant that the program translates the code into those small, unreadable lines, like you said. But I didn't know about the integers. Maybe that would be faster.

Script Execution
28th April 2007

As some of you might know, I'm attempting to create a scripting language. At the moment, everything is executed directly when the parser reads the code. This won't work in the long run, and I have to come up with a way to efficiently execute scripts.

Do you make a design document?
19th April 2007

I once made a design document, but I realized that it was a waste of time, since I was the only person working on the project. I've never made another one, because they're not fun to make, and they're not really necessary if you're all alone.
Also, I don'*snip*
