Real DMDs for virtual pinball cabinets are pretty cool but they need to be supported by the software running the games. This is an attempt to fill some gaps.

QUESTION
I'm very new in Unity and Stackowerflow. If i did something wrong, please don't judge me ^^ I used Unity's TPS Controller asset for my game. In first, it worked very well. But then It broke. But i didn't do anything :( (i don't even touch scripts or prefabs). After that, i deleted asset and re-download it but it didnt work again. Here is one example from my broken scene and these are the codes from my controller. Thanks For Any Kind of Help.
Starter Assets Input ...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Apr-08 at 23:22I had the same problem too. I researched a lot of documents about that and finally, I solved this problem. The problem is not about your codes or events or smth else. The problem is related to Unity. I don't know the exact reason for the problem but you can solve it this way: First, go Edit > Project Settings and select Input System Package from the Left tab. And then, change the Update Method with Process Events In Dynamic Update. And that's all! Dynamic update means the usual Update method that you see in the scripts void Update().

I am learning to program a game engine which is why I followed a tutorial, with that tutorial I have gotten this far and even though my code is identical to theirs (theirs did work in the videos) its not working the way it is meant to.

QUESTION
I'm currently attempting to create a first-person space flight camera.
First, allow me to define what I mean by that.
Notice that I am currently using Row-Major matrices in my math library (meaning, the basis vectors in my 4x4 matrices are laid out in rows, and the affine translation part is in the fourth row). Hopefully this helps clarify the order in which I multiply my matrices.
What I have so Far
So far, I have successfully implemented a simple first-person camera view. The code for this is as follows:
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Mar-02 at 23:15The problem is that two numbers, pitch and yaw, provide insufficient degrees of freedom to represent consistent free rotation behavior in space without any “horizon”. Two numbers can represent a look-direction vector but they cannot represent the third component of camera orientation, called roll (rotation about the “depth” axis of the screen). As a consequence, no matter how you implement the controls, you will find that in some orientations the camera rolls strangely, because the effect of trying to do the math with this information is that every frame the roll is picked/reconstructed based on the pitch and yaw.
The minimal solution to this is to add a roll component to your camera state. However, this approach (“Euler angles”) is both tricky to compute with and has numerical stability issues (“gimbal lock”).
Instead, you should represent your camera/player orientation as a quaternion, a mathematical structure that is good for representing arbitrary rotations. Quaternions are used somewhat like rotation matrices, but have fewer components; you'll multiply quaternions by quaternions to apply player input, and convert quaternions to matrices to render with.
It is very common for general purpose game engines to use quaternions for describing objects' rotations. I haven't personally written quaternion camera code (yet!) but I'm sure the internet contains many examples and longer explanations you can work from.
QUESTION
I'm new to Godot coming fresh from unity and I cant figure out how to duplicate an object/node. I've tried the duplicate function to no effect. My most recent attempts try to create child nodes with the same property as the parent. I cant seem to get anywhere, help would be appreciated. Here is my code that tries to create a child node:
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Feb-19 at 01:11- The base node class is invisible (gray) so you cannot see if they were added or not. You can switch from the local to the remote tab in the scene tree while running to see only one invisible node added.
- If you change the code to
AddChild(copynode).Duplicate();
you can see it adds all 5 invisible nodes.
QUESTION
When I say "Entity" below, I'm not specifically referring to anything relating to the ECS pattern, I just mean a general game entity.
I'm trying my hand at game development in C, after having done previous game dev in TypeScript. I'm looking for a C idiomatic way to reuse a pattern with which I'm familiar: each tick, the game iterates through a list of entities, telling each one to update itself, then draw itself. Each entity knows how to update itself, but requires information about the game as a whole to make this update.
...ANSWER
Answered 2022-Feb-13 at 13:14Don't #include "entity.h"
from game.h
and vice versa. Just forward declare what you need a pointer to. Also add header guards if you haven't already.

I am trying to learn Godot by making a simple 2D shooter, but am running into a problem. I do not know how to detect if an enemy has been shot by a bullet. My bullets are Area2D nodes with a Sprite, and CollisionShape2D node attached. My enemies are KinematicBody2D nodes with a Sprite, and CollisionShape2D node attached. The enemy also has a timer attached, but that is not important.
Here is the enemy code:

Install dmd-extensions
The installer will overwrite any existing dmddevice.dll in your VPM folder if you choose to install it (existing INI files are untouched).
If you're on Windows x64, you probably want to install both 32 and 64-bit versions. They can live happily next to each other.
The reason for installing both versions is that your VPM is probably 32-bit, so you'll need the 32-bit DmdDevice.dll and if you're using dmdext.exe with the 64-bit version of Pro Pinball, it will only work with the 64-bit version.
However, if you don't have Pro Pinball, just 32-bit will do fine, and if don't use VPM then just 64-bit will do fine as well. And if you're on a 32-bit Windows, then just take the 32-bit version.
The installer will add the install folder of dmdext.exe to the PATH environment variable, but only if the platform is the same: DMD Extensions (64-bit) on Windows x64 is added to PATH DMD Extensions (32-bit) on Windows 32-bit is added to PATH All other combinations aren't added to PATH
The installer will set the DMDDEVICE_CONFIG environment variable to the location of your DmdDevice.ini. That means from wherever you launch DmdDevice.dll (or run dmdext.exe with --use-ini), the same DmdDevice.ini will be used.
During installation, when a feature is deactivated, that means the installer couldn't find the host program. For VPM that means that you haven't registered VPinMAME.dll. For Pro Pinball it means it's not installed via Steam, and you'll need to select its installation folder manually.
If you want to build the installer, you'll need the WiX Toolset and its Visual Studio Extension.
Download and install Visual Studio 2019
The unmanaged exports library needs MS Build tools, which come with .NET 3.5. Install Instructions
Optional: If you want DmdDevice.dll copied to your VPM folder after build, point the VPM_HOME environment variable to your VPM installation folder.
Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/freezy/dmd-extensions.git
Open the .sln file in Visual Studio and build the solution.
If you want to use DMD Extensions with VisualPinMAME:. You can also set this as the default by selecting Default Options in the VPM setup, however note that games that you've already configured won't be affected.
Download the .zip archive, copy its content to your hard drive, preferable in your PATH, and unblock the .exe file (right-click, properties, unblock).
Download and install the Visual C++ Redistributables for Visual Studio 2017.
If you haven't already, download and install the .NET Framework 4.5.2.
Copy DmdDevice.dll, DmdDevice.ini and DmdDevice.log.config into your VPM folder (usually at Visual Pinball\VPinMAME).
Run the VPM setup
Click on Test, select the game and click on Game Options.
Enable Use External DMD and optionally disable Show DMD.
After cloning the repo, you'll need to restore the DllExport dependency. There is a script that does it for you. Go into the cloned repo and run:. Then there is an issue with Fody third party addin that may give you an error ith the $(IntermediateOutputPath). If this occurs, simply close Visual Studio and re-launch the DMD Extensions project and the issue will go away.
