Command Prompt Here

20th November 2017

I know right! You can shift right click the folder you are in to do it, but ONLY if there aren't enough files to fill the window so that there is space to do it in. Typing CMD is gonna be way easier so thanks haha

IIRC you can Shift+Right Click a folder to get more options (like ''open command window here'') from Windows 7. Everyone probably knows that one though!

Some OpenGL tips that might be helpful.
1. Textures
The huge texture thing is a super common optimisation. OpenGL will take 8192x8192 textures with no sweat, and prefers it to switching between textures (which is SLOW!!!). I doubt there's a machine l*snip*

Okay this works for Debian and as Ubuntu is based on Debian it *should* work.
This will let you compile 32-bit versions as well from the same 64-bit OS

# Enable 32-bit support
sudo dpkg --add-architecture i386
sudo apt-get update
# Get 32-bit *snip*

Ahhh I'm on my mobile so I can't explain properly :shrugs: but honestly it's easy! What are the commands you are using to compile now?

You can compile *for* 32 bit Linux pretty easily on Debian and Ubuntu. Look up enabling multiarch. Then you install 32 bit dependencies like ''apt-get install something:386'' and compile with ''gcc -m32''

If its a ''fake 3D effect in 2D perspective'' it looks to me like the texture UV coordinates are off?

Had problems with a TP link wireless extender dropping out ALL the time. 100 % fixed by pinging the router every second in a loop. Why doesnt it do that by default?!?!

cross-platform stuff is harddd

I still have to support 32 bit windows because the wine64 package is out of date and the wine-development package is 32 bit and building it from source is a paaaaaaain

sigh, the perfect combination of Linux bugs today. A bug is fine, except there's a bug in the fix. soooo. Who needs to support 32 bit Linux these days anyway righttt?

Blitz3d - Grayscale to texture map

20th September 2017

Oh! I think you can do this with texture blending, for at least two textures? Unfortunately the Blitz3D documentation isn't online any more. But look at the texture blend modes like add and multiply, you might be able to get something working that way?

Hi Moon, welcome :)
As you haven't had a reply so far, do you think maybe you could explain a bit more about what you are trying to do? Maybe a really simple picture of what the result might look like?

It's really good. Have you played FTL? (that 2D spaceship game). It's like that, except 3D. You do multiple runs and unlock things and You. Will. Die. I have to play on Easy - the longest I survived on Normal was 1 minute 5 seconds!
