Code Corner
Hey, on this page I’m going to be eventually posting snippets of code for the world to view. Some of them might be useful, while others might just be interesting. As I get my site more up to date and on a roll I will become more active in this area, but until then it will remain mostly blank, but feel free to post your own code snippet if you wish!
Java-Based Game Engine
So for all of you who want a direct link to the zip package of the game engine in its current “public” (I use that word loosely, as not many of you comment), I have provided one at http://www.deanpearce.net/repository/Java/GameEngine-Alpha.zip which will give you a direct download of the entire game engine in its current state. The upload here was last updated sometime in October, and there have been a lot of improvements since then, but until the code is clean, readable and documented, I won’t be uploading any updates to the engine.
Java Technologies Paper
This was more of a way to spend an afternoon which was relaxing, but didn’t feel unproductive. The paper is stored at http://www.deanpearce.net/repository/Papers/ServerImplementation.pdf and remains in its originally written state. Any comments on the content of the paper would be appreciated, as well as any corrections or incorrect assumptions. I hope to write another short paper sometime in the near future, along with my Operating Systems term paper at the end of the course. Both will be posted as they are completed.
Just a reminder, there are some other files and small projects available on my site, such as previous assignments, code samples and me just mucking about in Java, C/C++ and possibly PHP (since I’m getting back into web development). Any questions/comments can be made below, and happy coding!
DirectX Discussion Group
If you are like me and learning DirectX it would be great to hear from you! Either on a forum thread, or through e-mail. If you happen to have experience with the Windows API and DirectX please feel free to offer help to anyone you want or to watch threads on the forum. As I become familiar with DirectX, I will start posting some sample code on the forums or to the repository, so check occasionally. Time permitting, I would like to get a port of my game engine (polished up) running on DirectX so I will have a lot of half completed code and demo code available for picking through.
