Processer Independent Animation?
Author
I currently got help doing the following code, below!
I was wondering if I wanted to get Processer Independent Animation, what would I do? do I just do like I have done below diveided my update time by my desired Frames Per Second?
"timeSinceLastUpdate=(runTime-gotTime)/60; // 60 = desired FPS"
What do I do?
Any help would be greatly appreated!
Thanks in advance!
P.s code below:
If you don't mind hogging the CPU you can do something like this:
<code>
float lastTime = SDL_GetTicks()*0.001f;
float curTime;
float timeElapsed;
while (!finished) {
curTime = SDL_GetTicks()*0.001f;
timeElapsed = curTime-lastTime;
lastTime = curTime;
//do caluclations based on timeElapsed
}
</code>
timeElapsed will be a time in seconds (assuming you know that SDL_GetTicks returns milliseconds), so all game animation timing should be in seconds, so multiply something like (position+=speed*timeElapsed).
<code>
float lastTime = SDL_GetTicks()*0.001f;
float curTime;
float timeElapsed;
while (!finished) {
curTime = SDL_GetTicks()*0.001f;
timeElapsed = curTime-lastTime;
lastTime = curTime;
//do caluclations based on timeElapsed
}
</code>

I already have a timer below.
I was just wondering what I had todo to make the banana move at the same rate on every computer!
Basically the code before makes a square go up at a certain angle and fail at the same rate as gravity. but I want it to do this at the same frame rate on every computer there for been Processer Independent Animation!
My timer works out the delta time(dt) which I used to get my frame rate!
My secondsSinceRun gets turned in to runTime which is used to display how long the game has been running!
The question is I could get the computers frame rate and if it is less then 50 then tought it will just have to be slow, but am not sure what I multiply or how I use this information to get it to run at this speed?

Basically, you need following variables:
TimeStart - Time when you started the animation (you pressed a key to walk)
TimeEnd - Time when the animation should end (for example this is TimeStart + length of one walking cycle of your character)
TimeOfLastUpdate - Latest time when you were in your Animation Processing routine (APR). When the animation starts, set this to TimeStart
CurrentTime - Current time when you`re entering your APR - e.g. each rendering frame
ElapsedTime = CurrentTime-TimeStart
APR:
void APR (CurrentTime)
{
if (CurrentTime < TimeEnd)
{
ElapsedTime = CurrentTime-TimeStart;
// Handle the animation here based on the value of ElapsedTime
// E.g. in character animation you`re selecting appropriate animation frame based on this value
...
// After the animation is processed set the TimeOfLastUpdate
TimeOfLastUpdate = CurrentTime;
}
}
Some of above variables could be omitted, but believe me, that some time later during debugging you`ll be glad you have all of them in Watch window.
