There's already a HD Version of Serious Sam: TFE. Same game (remake with modern graphics), it's not that more expensive (i have bought it for 10 € in GameStop). But if you wan't to have the old game, this is a good price :)

Hello, i got a really serious decision to make. At the moment i have a job as Management-programmer, im not very happy about this job (due to payment, office, taskmaster). 1. My girlfriend lives far away from me (550 kilometres). 2. I living in my parents house, want to have my own home. 3. It is my dream to be a gamedeveloper. Well, i got a answer from a nice game company not far away from my girlfriend. They said, i have some nice references and i can work as paid trainee for 3-6 month (400€/Month), and depends on my work in this time, i have the chance to get the job as game developer in this company. Now if i think about it, this is really my chance to make my dreams come true and i can visit my girlfriend quite often. 1. But i have to quit my current job for a practical course, so i have less money for at least 3 months. 2. I dont know how to scratch along with 400€/month. 3. If the game company dont want to give me a job after the practical course, i have no job. I really dont know what to do, should i move away from my stable fundament and try to climp up?

WHAT NINE THOUSAND?!?!?!

The C++ version is easier to understand at the first view :P But yes, both are the same horror :D Horror code is one of the most amusing things in the world if you see it, but the biggest hell if you have to work with it.

Greeting from germany, its 7:00 a.m, but i have started my work at 6:30 a.m, normally i start my work at 9:00 a.m. I want to have holiday to see my girlfriend, so my boss have given a 1 week request to me for the next 2 days, if i accomplish the intention, he will let me go in my holiday. I have to start the work early and end the work late, keep you fingers crossed for me so i reach the target. X|

My first language was C/C++. With my knowledge of this language, starting program in C# was really easy for me. But my biggest mistake in my live... ...One day, i asked my boss how to do something in vb6, because i only wanted to see how another language works. This question was unfortunately the start of a big chaotic long-live and important project written in vb6 by my boss and other programmer, that have been left the firm long time ago. So my job was to step back from a modern language to a frumpish language. My fun to program has been decreased a lot since that day, it's not mainly the difficult to work with vb6 in relation to C#. The syntax is okay, because at my young days i played with BlitzBasic. The hardest thing was the predominant bad-formed code in this project that has been written by unexperienced programmers (yes my boss included). I said to my boss, that i don't like vb6 and instead of upgrade this old long-live project with new important features, we should create new projects with this features in a newer language instead of increasing the longevity of a old vb6 project. He answer with sentences like: "I don't give a shit, you get paid for this work.", or: "The customer needs this tool for work." etc. There are some approaches in this projects, some features for this project has been developed in .NET, but because of the missing downward-compatibility and some problems to access them from vb6, this modern solutions had to be developed in vb6 to make the access easier. Because my boss dont have the time for this and i'm the only one who can do this, i had to destroy the .NET approaches and develop it in vb6. Its hardly imaginable how reluctant i'm with this, develop a done and working .NET feature with an older language, because the boss want to have it.

Ah, i thought design patterns would be ah good basis how to name classes at least. Sorry if my answer couldn't help you.

Hi, maybe like this:

float nwidth = Convert.ToSingle(ImageBW8.Width) / Convert.ToSingle(ImageBW8.ImageWidth);
float nheight = Convert.ToSingle(ImageBW8.Height) / Convert.ToSingle(ImageBW8.ImageHeight);

Hello, you may look for design patterns. There are not only the rule for class names, the design patterns are really good for common design stuff. For example: If you want to implement a undo/redo feature to you application, the Memento pattern ist the right. Here is a list of more design patterns: Design Patterns

Well, a good way for dynamic arrays is to use the System.Collections.Generic.List; or for keyed stuff a System.Collections.Generic.Dictionary.

List<int> list = new List<int>();

list.Add(1);
list.Add(3);
list.Add(5);

int[] intArray = list.ToArray();

oh fat cannon! :omg: Yes, this confirms my oppinion. VB6 is the language with the most chaotic code i have ever seen. It's really a language for small short-life stuff. For those who never where in that situation: Imagine if you have a project with code like this in this language, but with 100000 source code lines...

Sorry, but i really don't understand you question... You don't wan't to destroy the selected text by pressing del or any other key? Is this right? What do you mean with a "block" inside text editor? But i really don't get what have this with C# together or with SQL server... really strange :omg:

If you wan't to test you sourcecode, you may use NUnit. In Visual Studio, you can create specified Unit tests in a Test Project: A Unit Testing Walkthrough with Visual Studio Team Test

congrats! I wish you a lot of fun in you new job :)

Same reason here! The problem is: I have started to program with C# but there are "important" projects written in VB6. I don't find a word how evil is this system, neither in english, nor in german. I only can say "My mental balance is suffering if i have to do something in this project".

Oh, eh... the "t" is really next to "s" on the keyboard... okay, thats a stupid excuse ;P

Well, i'm feeling with you, my back hurts, couldn't sleep tonight. At my job i have to program in this stupid language VB6 X| I really don't like VB6, C# is much bether!

The joke of this is: I know who has wrote this code... my boss...

if (doc.status==3)
{
// With this Status, nothing should be done here.
}
else if (doc.status == 2 || doc.status == 1)
{
AddDoc(doc);
}

Finish();

Should i laugh or cry?

if someone start to create a role play game like this:

int enemyHP = 10;
int playerStrength = 3;

    \_TakeDamage:
    switch (playerStrength)
    {
        case 1:
            if (enemyHP == 1)
            {
                goto \_EnemyDeath;
            }
            else
            {
                enemyHP = enemyHP - 1;
            }
        case 2:
            if (enemyHP == 2)
            {
                goto \_EnemyDeath;
            }
            else
            {
                enemyHP = enemyHP - 2;
            }
        case 3:
            if (enemyHP == 3)
            {
                goto \_EnemyDeath;
            }
            else
            {
                enemyHP = enemyHP - 3;
            }
        case 4:
            if (enemyHP == 4)
            {
                goto \_EnemyDeath;
            }
            else
            {
                enemyHP = enemyHP - 4;
            }
        case 5:
            if (enemyHP == 5)
            {
                goto \_EnemyDeath;
            }
            else
            {
                enemyHP = enemyHP - 5;
            }
        //case etc.:

    }

\_EnemyDeath:
    Console.WriteLine("Enemy is death!");

Then there is no hope for the game... xD This is really untopable!
