Unseen Studios

i dont know if anyone even still checks this...i stopped awhile ago because every time i think of born to rule it makes me sad that we didnt finish it, or get something out....like really sad

anyways...just wanted to see if y'all were still here. Lemme know

I'm doing the school thing, but I promise I still exist.

e-mail is a better way to reach me:
joe.muller@gmail.com
or
joe_muller@baylor.edu

ah...sweet...definately save those addresses.

At least two of us are alive

I've been talking to Karl some, and I see John Kim around every so often.

I have no idea what happened to David. I'll look him up...

I'm still here...I don't know why these dates are all messed up. Is this still an active topic?

I'm considering starting a new project...During winter break!

this is a current thread.

I look forward to doing something useful this time around--my coding is getting a lot better.

Yay! That's good. I should write up something on my current idea for a game...

How are you with data files, Joe? That's something pretty easy & relavent...



For example of what I mean by data files, I mean writing map files and reading data from them. For example, if the problem were "store a tile based map with 16 possible tiles at each x,y coordinate in arbitrary dimensions", could you design the file/pseudocode? (the implementation is trivial)

yeah, I can do that.

we've been using fstream for the class, but show me a better way to write/retrieve files, and I'm good.

There are two better ways; one from the standard C library and one from the Win-32 library. The standard C one is fine:

#include <stdio>

FILE* pFile = fopen( ... )
fwrite( ... )
fread( ... )
fclose( pFile )
