| Accessing the TorqueObjectDatabase | Actually, there is a built in system to set what each player is controlling. The player manager let... read more | 02/05/2007 (11:19 am) |
| Manipulating components after registration | Sounds like the issue is resolved, but as to the original question. There is no way to add or remov... read more | 02/05/2007 (11:13 am) |
| When will TX support shader model v1.1 base requirement like XNA | Yeah, it will. We have fallback support implemented now. What happened was that xna was 2.0 only u... read more | 02/05/2007 (11:08 am) |
| What's the different between ProcessTick and InterpolateTick? | @Robert. Ah, that's right. But it's unnecessary. I removed it for ThinkTanks and dRacer. It is o... read more | 02/05/2007 (11:04 am) |
