C++ :: Allegro Shooter Game Error
Jan 19, 2014I started making a shooter game where enemies appear randomly and you have to shoot them. Everything works fine except sometimes whenever a bullet hits an enemy an error comes up that says "Expression: vector subscript out of range". It doesn't happen every time there is a collision, which confuses me. Here is the collision of the bullets with enemies.
for (unsigned int i = 0; i < bullets.size(); i++) {
if (bullets[i].type == 1) {
for (unsigned int j = 0; j < enemies.size(); j++) {
float distance = sqrt(pow(bullets[i].x - enemies[j].x, 2) + pow(bullets[i].y - enemies[j].y, 2));
if (distance < bullets[i].radius + enemies[j].radius) {
bullets.erase(bullets.begin() + i);
enemies.erase(enemies.begin() + j);
} } }

View 3 Replies View RelatedC++ :: Video Game - Accessing Objects In Another Class?
Dec 3, 2014I am working on a video game that is based on a tutorial I found online and I ran into an issue associated with accessing an object's method inside another class object's function without making the object global which seems bad.
Here is basically how the tutorial set things up in the game: The game has a base class called GameObject then there are other child classes that inherit from this class. The GameObject class has all the basic information an object would have that needs rendered on the screen (x/y position, size of bitmap, bitmap, whether or not it is collidable, etc).
One of the child classes SpaceShip, which is the player so it has attributes and methods associated with managing # of lives and points scored.
There are other child classes of GameObjects in the game that need to take life and add points from the SpaceShip object if they collide with the spaceship or other objects.
In the collision handling routine I basically call a function "void Collided(int objectID)" when a game object collides with another. Within the Collided() routine, there is logic that executes code or other functions based on the objectID it collided with. Some of the collisions require taking life from the spaceship or adding points. The way this was accomplished in the tutorial was with function pointers (see Bullet class constructor and collided method for example). Is this really the best way to handle this sort of thing? It seems like there has to be a simpler way than to keep referencing function pointers in any new class I want to add to the game. I realized this when I went to add a method for the spaceship to fire bullets rather than inside my game class.

C++ :: Allegro Sprite Is Not Showing Up In Right Spot
Jun 8, 2013So I have a small game I'm making using OOP principles, I know it's a little bit of overkill but it's just for educational purposes. I have a sprite character that can be moved around with no problems, but I made a sword for him as a separate sprite that doesn't follow him. The sword sprite is supposed to cover his arm and his body as it swings, but it just stays in the upper left corner.
I messed around with the initialization of the sword in the main.cpp and I changed in sword.cpp and sword.h and it still is showing up in the same place. I even looked at the GetX() and GetY() statements I made and they seemed to work fine and when I debugged it, the variable values showed up correctly, but the sword doesn't move.
C++ :: How To Define New Color That Is Randomly Generated In Allegro
Feb 5, 2014How do i define a new color that is randomly generated in allegro.
I have this code here in the header file.
Code:
//FILE : circledefs.h
//PURP : Define some constants for circle & background
#ifndef CIRCLEDEFS_H
#define CIRCLEDEFS_H
#define NUMCIRCLES 3
//The frames per second for the timer
#define FPS 60
[Code]...
And what i want to do here is learn how to create a random number gen. Now a few questions if you don't mind telling me is.
1 - can I create 3 random generators in this header file? Or do I have to do this in main.
2 - If I do have to do this in main can I still create this defined RANDOM as a color.
3 - I am sooooo new to this all i know is cin and cout code for C++, so will i need to know more about pointers to do this.
4 - for fun how hard would it be to make a game in allegro that uses music to define how the enemy moves and attacks. (yes that would be the final project.
C++ :: Game Design Practice For Accessing Container Of Game Objects
Dec 21, 2014I'm working on my first video game. So far I have a few classes in the game starting with the Game class which includes a list of GameObjects (another class). There are several classes that inherit from GameObjects used to implement things like bullets, explosions, various enemy types, etc.
The game essentially iterates through the list of GameObjects to update/render them. I would like to provide access to the Game's list of GameObjects inside another class (like the Bullet class) so I can put new objects on the list. For example, when a bullet hits, I want to add an explosion to the Game's GameObject list it can be updated/rendered.
How this should be setup? I was considering adding a pointer to the Game or GameObject list to the GameObject class (and methods to access it), but I was wondering if there is a better way to set this up?

C++ :: How To Get The Current Video Mode In Console
Apr 2, 2014I've been wondering if there's a function or procedure used to know the current video mode. An example of how this was done in Pascal:
function VideoMode : integer;
begin
if (lastmode = BW40) or (lastmode = BW80)
VideoMode := 40
else
VideoMode := 80;
end;
I've been told "conio.h" has a lastmode function, but it doesn't seem to be supported in Dev-C++ and Visual Studio C++. Is there a Windows function to know the number of columns in the current video mode?
C# :: Stream Video From LAN Server Onto Client PC?
Oct 9, 2014I have loads of movies on DVD and they are all on my media server, but the media server doesn't actually allow streaming to be done, the movies are just stored in a folder on the desktop.
My goal would be able to host all my movies on my LAN server, then build an application to run on a windows based PC at home, not over the Internet just over LAN. For example, say the server I have at home had all the movies in a folder on the desktop, then when I start the client on another PC or laptop in my house, I could view all the movies, choose which one and then stream it to that client PC. I am using C#.NET WPF visual studio.
Maybe I could use something like VLC player to play the movies but I would want to build an client application to view the movies and search for them on the server where the movies are stored. Also I know there are other media streaming programs out there but I want to develop my own one for my uses.

Jun 15, 2013I am using DirectShow to play/pause/stop a video file. I am having a slider control which increments with the playing video. I have done some calculation to find the exact step to forward or backward the video.
On dragging the slider to any position, video forwards/backwards to the new position, but slider doesn't get increment. Say I drag the slider from 10 to 50, video goes to the new position, but on releasing the capture slider again jumps back to the previous position from where it was dragged.

May 4, 2015I have code (found long time ago, ~2001) to make videos from OpenGL rendering in my view class. In my OnDraw() function I call the function SaveAsAvi(). This works as intended until I have 255 frames in the movie I am trying to make. After that, Windows Media Player claims it cannot play the file. VirtualDub claims the avi contains Palette Changes and shows the correct number of frames (>255) but all frames past 255 are the same and equal to the last frame.
Memory overflow? Need to free m_pixels sometime somewhere?
Code:
void C***View::SaveAsAvi() {
C***Doc* pDoc = GetDocument();
if (pDoc->m_avi_status == -1)// initialize AVI stuff {
KillTimer(1);
// allocate space for the pixel info
