SFML projects / Re: Asteroids! Asteroids clone game SFML 2.0

« on: August 18, 2012, 11:14:00 am »

Thanks for your quick reply! About window resolution, I have set it optimal to my computer(Mac Book Pro). I didn't really think about resolution in other computers . But I actually "maybe" know how to set optimal window resolution when program starts. I really need to make some changes before I release next version...

I tried that load path first, but for someone reason it didn't work and I needed to make full load path(User/desktop etc.). I need to read more SFML documentation and find out how put it universal.

SFML projects / Asteroids! Asteroids clone game SFML 2.0

« on: August 18, 2012, 09:18:16 am »

Hi, so I will now present my "latest" project. I have been working on this asteroids clone game very long. Mainly because I've not been motivated sometimes. First I made it in SFML 1.6, but then I re-coded it in SFML 2.0. Still the game isn't finished, I just wanted to show it off. I thought, that I could get some sort of motivation to finish the game, if I release it now.

Game is open-source, you can use code how ever you want.

Oh, right. How can you put universal load path in to your game? The only thing I need to load is font, but how can you make it to work for anyone?

Controls:

W - Move towards
AD - Rotate ship
S - Go backwards
Space - Shoot

V - to re-generate that white dot(It's going to be some sort of bonus thing)

Esc - To close game

Download here:

Graphics / Re: Converting INT to STRING.

« on: May 19, 2012, 08:12:09 pm »

Hi, I used very similar score system in my Pong! - game. I'm not going to give you a hint, just the code.

Note: This is SFML 1.6 version code!

Code: [Select]


#include <sstream>

...

App.clear();

std::ostringstream oss;
oss << points;
sf::String ret;
ret.SetFont(Fontti);
ret.SetPosition(20.f, 10.f);
ret.SetSize(25);
ret.SetColor(sf::Color::White);
ret.SetText(oss.str());

....

App.draw(ret);

SFML projects / Re: Asteroids Clone - Thanks!

Looks very good. I have also done an asteroids clone game. I never figured out how to actually "divide" those asteroids. How did you create asteroids, did you create a class for asteroid and used that class in vector?

I highly recommend to 1. Create a class for bullet. This class should draw/move etc. the bullet. 2. Create a vector what uses bullet class like

std::vector<Bullet> Bullets

I can give you the full code, but you should try to figure it out by yourself. I want to remember you about the fact that bullet shooting can done very many ways.
Sorry about my crap english

General / Re: Displaying a number with sf::string

This answer is "bit" late, but I still want tell you how I do it.

Code: [Select]

std::ostringstream oss;
oss << number;
NumberText.SetText(oss.str());
NumberText.SetColor(sf::Color(255,255,255));
NumberText.SetPosition(10.f, 10.f);

-

App.Draw(NumberText);

Works well in my Pong! game, so I assume that it should work.

I just tested this and well, it looks very good. Of course there are bugs etc. but it looks Minecraft. Map generator is actually pretty sweet, I even played around with it. I hope you understand my english enough

Tip: You should put how to use map generator and controls to this thread.

Graphics / Mouse rotation in top-down shooter

« on: March 15, 2012, 06:37:27 pm »

You're true about my laziness and I know I shouldn't be so lazy. And I know all those advices are true. Personally I hate installing different libraries, I think it's more harder than programming actually. BUT I'm gonna grow myself a spine and install SFML 2.

EDIT: Got SFML2 working

Argh, I didn't look that code sample too well. The window isn't moving so the window is still, no moving around(Isn't sf::view used for that?). Then I'm using SFML 1.6(Too retard to install without proper install guide). And by the way, do I the code sample when mouse is moved?

Code: [Select]

if(sf::Event::MouseMoved)
{ //Do the code sample }

Yeah, thats true. I'm just too lazy to do so, because if vector algebra is going to be learned in school, I won't try to learn it now. <- English would be a lot more practical

Okay, thank you. I'm not really good at maths(I'm in junior high school).

Hi, I'm currently trying to make a top-down shooter. I have done kinda a lot of stuff into it, but now I'm stuck at very annoying little problem. I need to make mouse rotation, again I have no idea how to do this. The idea is that the player would look at the cursor. I could rotate the player using cursor so you could use WASD to move around.
