02:26:00raptorsigh
02:27:00raptorit seems everytime i try to pick up the input rewrite again, my attention is called elsewhere
03:09:00Flynnn has joined
03:21:00raptorHi Flynnn
03:21:00raptorare you working on coding somethign?
03:22:00FlynnnI was working on the bots issue, but I am beginning ot think my idea has its problems
03:22:00FlynnnWhy?
03:22:00raptorjust curious who is doing development... we are all kinda on big rewrites of large portions of code
03:22:00raptorso it may seem like we're not doing much..
03:22:00FlynnnAhh, any way I can help with that?
03:23:00raptornot sure - my lot right now is to rewrite the input system
03:24:00raptorbig task - but not really suited for more than one person
03:24:00raptorunless i give up :)
03:24:00FlynnnI'm sure you'll get through it hehe
03:24:00FlynnnSorry if I seem like a lump who knows nothing
03:24:00FlynnnI was being pretty stupid with the PHP thing
03:24:00raptorno need to apologize
03:25:00raptori didn't know c++ until I played with bitfighter
03:25:00raptortaught myself since last November
03:25:00FlynnnNice!
03:25:00raptor(although it is debateable whether I actually know it...)
03:25:00FlynnnxD
03:27:00FlynnnAre there any particularly pressing issues that need resolving other than the ones in the issues list?
03:27:00FlynnnBots jsut don't seem to be my thing
03:28:00raptorthat list has most of the stuff
03:28:00raptorthe really big things aren't on the list - like the editor rewrite (watusimoto is doing that) and the input rewrite (my joy of joys)
03:28:00raptoroh
03:28:00raptoryou are on Mac, right?
03:28:00FlynnnIndeed I am
03:29:00raptordoes your mac have a mic?
03:29:00FlynnnYep! :)
03:29:00raptori just got voice chat working on Mac with the last revision - I would like to test what it sounds like from someone who has a mac
03:29:00raptor(i am on linux)
03:29:00FlynnnSure
03:29:00raptorup for a test?
03:30:00FlynnnAbsolutely :)
03:30:00FlynnnWhich clone shall I clone?
03:30:00raptorok, let me compile real quick and start a server from the latest revision
03:30:00raptortrunk
03:30:00raptorerr.. the main one
03:30:00FlynnnAllright,
03:31:00raptorok compiling..
03:31:00FlynnnCloning...
03:32:00raptoroh great - it doesn't compile in linux...
03:32:00FlynnnTHat's a problem
03:33:00raptorok minor issue, compiling again...
03:33:00FlynnnStill cloning lol
03:34:00raptorsuccess!
03:34:00FlynnnStiiill cloning
03:34:00FlynnnMy internet has been slow today, sorry
03:34:00raptorno problem, whenever you're ready - you have to build, too
03:37:00raptoroh man, there is an issue with mouse scaling in full screem modes...
03:38:00raptorbut never mind that...
03:38:00FlynnnAand it jsut finished cloning. Now to compile
03:42:00FlynnnWoo! Done compiling
03:43:00raptorok, hosting..
03:55:00raptorthanks!
03:56:00FlynnnNo prob :)
03:56:00raptorgoing to ask the OpenAL dev about feedback cancellation...
03:56:00FlynnnI have a little issue i think I'd liek to fix
03:56:00raptorok
03:56:00FlynnnSeems the chat handling is a little.. intersting
03:56:00FlynnnI'd liek to define some public moethods so you dobn't have to iterate through the connected players anymore
03:56:00Flynnn** methods
03:57:00raptorwe rewrote most of the chat stuff for 015a
03:57:00FlynnnAhh
03:57:00raptoryou are talking about tab-completion?
03:57:00FlynnnNope
03:57:00raptoroh
03:57:00FlynnnCame across an artifact in the addbots command
03:57:00FlynnnWhat's the current method you guys are using?
03:57:00raptorfor?
03:57:00FlynnnSending message to all players
03:57:00FlynnnMEthod as in function
03:57:00FlynnnSorry, java speak herel ol
03:58:00raptorit's done over an RPC function with the TNLNetObject
03:58:00raptorlet me see which one specifically...
03:58:00raptorall chat's are sent to the server, then back to all clients
03:58:00raptor*chats
03:58:00FlynnnHmm, not exactly what i meant
03:58:00FlynnnHere, elt me pull up some code
03:59:00raptori'm a bit dense sometimes, and need very precise specifics...
03:59:00FlynnnStringTableEntry msg = StringTableEntry("Robot added by %e0");
03:59:00Flynnn Vector<StringTableEntry> e;
03:59:00Flynnn e.push_back(clientRef->clientConnection->getClientName());
03:59:00Flynnn for(S32 i = 0; i < mClientList.size(); i++)
03:59:00Flynnn mClientList[i]->clientConnection->s2cDisplayMessageE(GameConnection::ColorNuclearGreen, SFXNone, msg, e);
03:59:00FlynnnWould be nicer if all that were osmething like:
03:59:00raptors2cDisplayMessageE
03:59:00FlynnnSendMEssageTOAllPlayers("Robot added by %eo")
04:00:00FlynnnFormatting as a high wish, but sitll xD
04:00:00Flynnns2cDisplayMessageE, got it
04:00:00FlynnnLemme go test that
04:00:00FlynnnThanks :)
04:00:00FlynnnWait
04:00:00FlynnnThat's what hits ucrrently uses
04:00:00Flynnn** this
04:01:00Flynnn** currently
04:01:00raptoryeah... all the data needs to be wrapped specially in a NetObject of sorts
04:01:00raptorwatusimoto, and sam686 understand the protocol stuff better than I
04:01:00FlynnnI'm thinking somewhere we could define a bunch of methods like:
04:01:00FlynnnSendMEssageToPlayer
04:01:00FlynnnAnd SendMessageToAll
04:01:00raptorah... well, that sort of exists..
04:01:00raptorlet me find it..
04:02:00FlynnnAnd it would automatically do all the iteration and type conversion needed
04:04:00raptorahhh, NOW I understand what you want to do...
04:04:00raptormake some easier methods to call instead of allways doing the looping/etc.
04:05:00FlynnnExactly
04:05:00FlynnnJust seems cleaner
04:05:00raptorok ok - I am probably not your best reference on this :)
04:05:00FlynnnxD allright, I'll ask same and watusimoto
04:05:00raptorwatusimoto would definitely be a better guide...
04:05:00raptor:)
04:05:00Flynnn** minus sam
04:05:00raptornow i just need to remember what I was doing...
04:05:00FlynnnAllright, thanks a ton :)
04:06:00FlynnnOen sec, I need to be AFK for a bit

14:39:00raptorhey sam686, I found out that SPEEX has acoustic echo cancellation support
14:39:00watusimotosigh
14:39:00raptorsigh
14:40:00raptorlots of discussion on your post on SO, watusimoto
14:42:00watusimotoyeah, but not much consensus
14:42:00raptornope
14:46:00watusimotoI'm favoring DeadMG's answer
14:46:00raptorjust live with the casting and take the benefit of a smaller object at the top of the heirarchy?
14:47:00watusimotoyup
14:48:00raptormaybe give your question another full working day to see if anyone else comes up with something insightful
14:49:00watusimotoyup
15:29:00watusimotojust used const_cast<> for the first time
15:29:00watusimotoI feel dirty
15:30:00raptori'm afraid I am not too familiar with the c++ casting world..
15:30:00watusimotohttp://www.cprogramming.com/tutorial/const_correctness.html
15:31:00watusimotolets you take a const and modify it
15:31:00raptorthat's evil
15:46:00watusimotomaybe this provides an escape
15:46:00watusimotohttp://stackoverflow.com/questions/105014/c-mutable-keyword
15:47:00raptorinteresting
15:48:00watusimotoI'm going to try that once I get this compiling again
16:27:00watusimoto3 days with no ability to compile
16:27:00watusimotoworking far too many hours on this
16:28:00watusimotoneed to be packing
16:28:00watusimotonot hacking
16:28:00raptoryou have a date yet?
16:28:00watusimotonope
16:29:00raptormy wife moved from saudi arabia to new york once - I don't have any experience moving in/out of country
16:31:00watusimotono problem can't be solved by throwing more money at it
