Planet Chili

I had a German Grandma from Heildersiem, we called her Omi.

she tried to teach me oh Christmas tree in German but nothing like that poem!

I am up to intermediate lesson 4 and Chili gives an excellent explaination of directx and how the GPU and VRAM works with RAMDAC to flipflop the page buffer and he mentions 'Bit Blitting'! Awesome! :lol: A part of my project is to demonstrate sprite blitting, I think I'm getting a better understandi...

sorry LuisR14

I have been away from the Chili forums for a while and got confused, Lux has a name with L at the beginning and it doesn't take much for me to get confused.

Stick to VS if that's what you have been using so far. No point in learning a new IDE as well as learning the C++ language.

I use VS because I get a free version with my course, but I do love Intellisense!

Yeah man I think I was just having one of those days. I feel more hopeful today. I have enjoyed doing Chili's excercises during his tutorials but not tried making my own game with his framework.

What functions must I create to play with these little variables. What classes do I need to encapsulate a...

Hi God

You're doing really well to be so far in the tutorials! I am on Intemediate Lesson 3 (but I have been studying course materials in between Chili vids)

@balldrix 1.3. I've always been a huge fan of DOOM and Quake back in the day, so yeah.. you can imagine how much I like COD and BF. I loved DOOM and Quake back in the day, and I love CS 1.6 & CS- source. I played CS when it was just a crappy mod. My comment about COD and BF is probably due to the f...
