Thanks for the tips Kjell - I'll look into the things you mentioned later - If I can't figure out a way to generate data structures for objects first - It will never work anyway. so far, All I did was split the code up in too two big procedures. A side from that - It is an exact clone of the example...

I found the NEHE Productions stencil buffer shadow example works well. http://nehe.gamedev.net/tutorial/shadows/16010/ I was able to get the exact example working very easily by practically wrapping the entire code in a DLL - at least I know it works The key to getting a shadow system going in zge i...

OMG thats a great update. This is just the coolest thing ever...ZGE+Bullet! I'm going to work on some parameterized visualizer demos. Edit - Just a minor detail - To get it working in the visualizer, I had to include the file file extension in the ModuleName ("ZGEBullet.dll" instead of jus...

Here is a new powerful technique of mixing components and scripting. Wow - I really like this new feature. This makes using scripted loops, conditionals, Zlibrary functions much more flexible now. Just experimenting a bit, but the amount of work required to do something like this has been reduced d...

A MilkDrop clone for ZGE looks like it will possible, but it's going to require a lot of planning and research. If anyone has some insight or advise it would be appreciated - there are some significant technical hurdles here in regard to porting this to ZGE. Two things I'm not at all sure about - Ho...

Thank you!!! I tried to get bullet workig in ZGE - It seemed impossible - and I had lot of trouble just compiling it - I hate working with SDK's. So this is really appreciated, hope we can get the source code and continue to develop this as a team - there is some great potential here. Bullet is an e...

Would an auto-removel system for inactive accounts work? Could back fire - but I am aware of a few sites that remove accounts after one or two months of inactivity. After someone has met the criteria of a legitimate user - you can probably make an account safe form removal too. Managing all this can...

Yes shader creating is really tricky

Indeed - not used to the paradigm and the way data is handled at all - but I guess that is what makes so fast.

I'll have a closer look at texel fetch - and try it later, thanks.

not sure if that should be done with a visualizer setting or leave it to the effect developer to solve with scripting. If it's possible - think anything that could be built in to the visualizer including smoothing would be appreciated. Just as long as the control is off by default like the rotate a...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=In99mCPm694 Just experimenting a bit - applied a mesh expression over a net here - split stereo. CPU version a still runs @ 30 FPS. My Limit though - doubling the size brings the CPU down to 19 fps. Would hope to see some liquid maybe smart particle - effects with the...

GPU Gems 3 is free here:

It's an excellent resource.

very interested here. So as I understand it, we will have Clear, Background, Foreground and new category called Transform? This will make for easy script development and many more possible combinations. Lots of possible effects for a category like this too - should be a lot of fun. Do you think colo...

This is excellent - thanks! The graphite skins are really going to help reduce eye strain for me - something that has always been a bit of a problem for me.

Exellent Job on that - one of favorite piano solos -It was one of the first songs I ever learned how to play when I took piano lessons. I'm going to post this in that FL Forums.

Have not seen it - but it looks like a much better programming font. I'll check it tomorrow for sure - thanks. I'm multi-tasking to the max right now.
