Henrik 10-May-2007 [958] | gabriele, so a fast arcade game would be made up of gobs (player, enemies, score) put inside other gobs (background, starfield)? |
Gabriele 10-May-2007 [959] | yep. |
Maxim 10-May-2007 [960] | exactly. |
Gabriele 10-May-2007 [961] | just like you would do with faces now |
Henrik 10-May-2007 [962] | except a billion times faster |
Anton 10-May-2007 [963] | (except the fast bit) |
Henrik 10-May-2007 [964] | :-) |
Pekr 10-May-2007 [965] | I just wonder if we needed new concept? Weren't we ok with kind of min-face, containing simply less fields? |
Gabriele 10-May-2007 [966] | this takes less memory |
Pekr 10-May-2007 [967] | so do faces still exist? What is the relation? |
Maxim 10-May-2007 [968] | well AGG still has to do the rasterizing and its CPU based... so not million times faster.. but less REBOL collision trying to MANAGE the internal C data. |
Pekr 10-May-2007 [969] | Not caring about memory, if concepts eventually don't fit :-) |
Henrik 10-May-2007 [970] | pekr, the current model is terribly slow and eats up a lot of memory |
Gabriele 10-May-2007 [971] | we've been discussing this with carl for more than one year, and he did compiutations to estimate memory use and so on... and in the end the simplest/best thing is a gob! type |
Maxim 10-May-2007 [972] | no faces yet, but could be virtualized. |
Henrik 10-May-2007 [973] | try getting more than 1-3 fps in full screen on a 1280x960 screen :-) |
Pekr 10-May-2007 [974] | no faces? Aha, so you will use object! which will hold or refer to gobs? |
Gabriele 10-May-2007 [975] | yep |
Pekr 10-May-2007 [976] | I mean - to replace face concept? |
Maxim 10-May-2007 [977] | well a gob can be an assembly of gobs, |
Henrik 10-May-2007 [978] | pekr, I heard carl mumbling something about emulating R2 faces |
Pekr 10-May-2007 [979x2] | OK then ... |
let's forget R2 :-) | |
Maxim 10-May-2007 [981] | of one gob can be a pointer to many gobs whcih will contain all the previous face constructs... like edge lets say. |
Pekr 10-May-2007 [982] | I want to see slides, please :-) I just realised, how weak my english is :-) |
[unknown: 9] 10-May-2007 [983] | Carl has an odd way of speaking English as well. |
Anton 10-May-2007 [984] | highspeed dialects .. rebcode ... |
Maxim 10-May-2007 [985] | tomorrow you'll see globs, which actually seem like a 100% map to R3 gobs so far :-) |
Pekr 10-May-2007 [986] | high speed dialects? What is that? |
Anton 10-May-2007 [987] | intrinsics - lower-level functions that need higher-level support |
Henrik 10-May-2007 [988] | did he say the word limit is gone? |
Pekr 10-May-2007 [989] | yes |
Maxim 10-May-2007 [990] | YES |
[unknown: 9] 10-May-2007 [991] | YEs, I want a million words in REbol |
Gabriele 10-May-2007 [992] | yep |
Pekr 10-May-2007 [993] | Reichart - what for? :-) |
Anton 10-May-2007 [994] | Carl said something about a framework(?) for implementing high speed dialects, which he developed for rebcode (?) |
[unknown: 9] 10-May-2007 [995] | Qtask |
Maxim 10-May-2007 [996] | me too. words are fast. |
[unknown: 9] 10-May-2007 [997] | When Carl speaks in Engish, he pauses a lot...but almost always before a noun....which he then makes louder.... He also stutters, and changes direction in the middle of his sentences. |
Henrik 10-May-2007 [998] | reichart, probably not practiced |
[unknown: 9] 10-May-2007 [999] | I tried dictating him just now, and it is tough becuase of the way he speaks. So if you don't speak English normally, it would be very tough. |
Anton 10-May-2007 [1000] | Going over the list of datatypes. |
Ashley 10-May-2007 [1001] | pauses a lot...but almost always before a noun....which he then makes louder ... I thought that was my choppy video feed! ;) |
Pekr 10-May-2007 [1002] | :-) |
Anton 10-May-2007 [1003] | mine just went choppy, reload ok... |
[unknown: 9] 10-May-2007 [1004x2] | Same here |
It would be nice if you could tell the video to be BW, so that it used the bandwidth better. | |
Ashley 10-May-2007 [1006] | What line speed do you have Anton? I'm on 1.5MB (ADSL) here. |
[unknown: 9] 10-May-2007 [1007] | For example, I don't need colour here. |
