What does a good game consist of? (part 16)

Street life

After seeing so many repeating themes in games(FPS competition and war-theme, strategy, tactics, teamwork) I have of making a refreshing one. While I have likes for many themes in games, I thought adding a new, refreshing theme would be nice.

Why street life?

Because I have so many bad memories with street fighting, being broke and cold blood pumping trough my veins-the last one because of heavy schizophrenia, and it is not a pleasure feeling.

How would you implement it in a game? I'm not sure, but I can readily it was cool in GTA San Andreas.

So many rappers draw inspiration from it. The street life, not GTA.

If we conclude, GTA is based on street life.

I think this is important to notice, as many people(including myself) live many kinds of street life, so it would probably smart to fix this hole in games.

Let me talk about my schizophrenia: ugliest form of schizo. When I first had it(12 years ago), I could see colors flying around me, demons, ... on the other side, what was real, many people tried to hurt me badly because I kept staring at other people and saying nonsense.

I think walking down the street every day an constantly thinking someone is going to kill me is one of the forms of street life. Along with being dead-broke and involved in street fights(which I'm in
neither).

It hurt be deeply once to have to sleep on the street. And I see no reason, why a street life game wouldn't help relieve some stress of street lifers.

Another part of street life could be partying, but this is the mildest form.

How could one implement street life into a game? Street Fighter is another form of street life inspirations. So in my opinion it would mean having to repay debt to mafia, survive being dead-broke and use some good rap. What do you think how could it be implemented?

Level design basics, part 2

An arch level design is hard, as it doesn't involve only polygon boxes, but also also three dimensional curve lines. If you ever played. Americas army 1, you'll know how hard it is to make a curve building, like the famous over played bridge crossing map. The point is to start. With one curve. Curve is not a straight line, but it's still a line. Means it is possible to apply lines into a three dimensional level. arch 0 0 1 0

static mesh render

Static mesh is a data compound of a three dimensional object in time and space. To render one, it takes a one big storage file that contains all the data about the object. That data has to be stored on a disk drive. The really tricky meshes to render are the flying ones. It's a completely different air pressure. The data gets written to a game memory log, it's a massive multiplayer online game, otherwise in the cloud, like Steam. To render one, the data from the level and monster data files to the monitor handling chip. Monitor handling chips vary based on personal computers, lap tops, operating system, processor and graphics car. Before a three dimensional object can be rendered it has to be fixed on memory, either random access memory or the disk drive recovery point. A three dimensional object data can take quite a large amount of memory, especially those used multiple times. Steam Cloud has it's own of handling data, so that it is persistent. A level is made of static m...

object render

To render objects with c++, it is first required to load them on the engine's heap. After loading the object it has to be integrated into the game engine's allocated memory. void integrate() {     direct_x_node.call(); } Modern games(after doom 2) take an insane amount of heap memory. Integrating all the objects on the level, can take 400 mb or random access memory (ram). The same memory has the chip effect on the working of the central processing unit. To completely render the object, the first step is to load all the textures, shadow models, parts, particles, inner model, render the object on the level map, all the corelations with the heuristics. It is very hard to render the inner part of the objects, such as anatomy or infra structure. While it is perfectly fine to just render the inner part to not be displayed.  The anatomy of a player character or non player can be seen on the outside, and the internal strurcture of a level object such as a building, including the ...
