Is there any difference between storing textures and baked lighting for environment meshes? +1 for low-res lightmaps. Lightmaps can be surprisingly low-res while providing acceptable appearance, as long as the base texture looks good. |

STL for games, yea or nay? @Simon: with all due respect, the last example is a sign of extreme cluelessness, and has nothing to do with STL... that person would do the same in any other language with lists that can be sorted. It's his thinking that is broken. |

Lag compensation with networked 2D games @Vish: Oh :) I meant what happens in many online FPSs when your connection drops - you can move a bit but your character is then pulled back, as if tied by a rubber band, when the client figures out the server hasn't ACKed its inputs after a while. |
