Hey Everyone

So this week I became a member sponsor on www.3dbuzz.com. The first thing I had a look at was their XNA Behaviour Programming videos, which are the first in their set on AI programming. However, not being particularly interested in XNA, I implemented the algorithms presented in the videos for Android.

Here’s a video of the demo running on my Nexus One:

Since I was on Android and only using the Android and OpenGL ES libraries, I had to write a lot of low level code to replace the XNA functionality that 3DBuzz’s videos rely on. I also had to implement an on-screen joystick. I might write up a couple of posts on the more interesting parts of the code (what is not in the videos) soon.

Thanks
Michael

This video looks at how we can use the OpenGL graphics library in our Java programs. This video was an entry in a competition on 3dbuzz.com. As such, it doesn’t flow on from the previous videos, just consider it a bonus. (more…)

This is a very short video explaining a problem that comes up time and time again on 3dbuzz.com. Essentially, why the code for their Hello World example doesn’t compile. If you have done any C++ coding before, you can safely ignore this video. (more…)
