| 2 FPS - Vertex shader bound? | Hi all, I'm trying to get a game to work on my laptop (Guild Wars). I've installed it all fine, and it runs - but it runs at 2 FPS with the lowest graphics settings, using PIX to measure FPS. I've checked through PIX, and the game isn't do... |

| Lock-free lists | Hi all, I was looking into lock-free data structures recently, to try and implement a lock-free free list. However, every implementation I looked at needs to allocate a new node with operator new, which will cause a lock on the heap while it... |

| IOCP+AcceptEx vs blocking accept() | Hi all, I'm looking into IO Completion Ports for some test code I'm developing, and I have a quick question. I've been reading This Page (I know it's a bit dated), and it seems to imply that using AcceptEx is the correct way to accept connections... |

| Size/move loop and delay in DefWindowProc | I'm trying to start a timer when the user starts to drag the window, so I can render a frame on the WM_TIMER message, to prevent the stall that happens when the user drags the window. I added some logging and found that DefWindowProc() for WM... |

| Issues with the z-buffer and triangle ordering | Translucent objects are different from opaque objects. To correctly render a scene with opaque objects, you should: 1. Render all opaque objects (In any order, but front-to-back can potentially be slightly better performance when using a Z-buffer) ... |

| Problems buidling a terrain | Quote:Original post by lonewolff Hi Evil Steve, I just woke up this morning and was thinking I would have a better chance if I use the debug runtimes. So, to back up your suggestion this is what I am going to do. And yes, by using a breakpoint... |

| Modifying The Resources Of An Executable File | Quote:Original post by Nick123 BTW, is there a function or library to change the window size of an executable?Nope, the window size is determined by the parameters to CreateWindowEx. You could use DLL injection to hook the call to CreateWindowExA /... |

| winsock issue. TCP missing packets | Your code looks suspect to me. If your message is 50 bytes, then your recv() call could read 100 bytes (2 messages) in one go, but I bet processMessage() only expects one message to be in the buffer. |

| aspect ratio & viewport | I'm not sure about C/MDX, but in C++/Unmanaged DX, you need to create the backbuffer the same size as the client area of the window, not the window size. In C++ That's done with the AdjustWindowRect() function. Then you can use the backbuffer size... |

| Direct 3D error | That error means that the game is trying to get the driver to do something that isn't supported. As MJP said, this isn't a tech support forum, and there's not much more we can do to help. EA technical support would be your best bet, or having a look... |
