Where's the screenie?

(Incidentally, it's spelled "voila"... I'm surprised Venom/Nico hasn't called you on that :p)

Are we sure about that?  The FOV turned out to be only one line of code.  Perhaps this will turn out to be only one small subroutine that everything else is funneled through.

all you would need is to scale everything by 20 in the T&L code.

Code: [Select]

glScalef(20,20,20);


i don't know if the collision/hud/(insert problem area here) part of the code will be screwed up

Oh yeah - I'll get one up if I have a moment... we're crazy busy at work this week, moving offices and all.

And the "walla" expression is Hebrew. Means basically the same as "viola", but I never felt comfortable with the latter - it's like saying "violin!" ;)

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well.

"The very essence of tolerance rests on the fact that we have to be intolerant of intolerance. Stretching right back to Kant, through the Frankfurt School and up to today, liberalism means that we can do anything we like as long as we don't hurt others. This means that if we are tolerant of others' intolerance - especially when that intolerance is a call for genocide - then all we are doing is allowing that intolerance to flourish, and allowing the violence that will spring from that intolerance to continue unabated." - Bren Carlill

"Walla" is Hebrew for the same thing?  Interesting.  I'm curious as to its etymology.  (Where's Sesquipedalian when you need him?)

And it's voila, not viola.  It's French for "look there", or "there it is"; and it's pronounced "vwah-la". :p

Yeah, one of the main Israeli portals is "Walla".

listen to the guy, he knows his stuff. Oh, and of course, that's the french "a", not the english one ( like the "a" in alpha ).
I just wonder about your "h-", vwala is way enough, you don't mark a pause or anything.
That doesn't really in this forum, does it, btw? :D
SCREW CANON!

The H isn't for the pause, it's for the pronunciation... "ah" has a very definite pronunciation to an English reader, whereas "a" could be any number of things, depending on your accent and preference.
