Game development is hard (part 3)

Even though game development is always fun and exciting, it can also
feel very frustrating. It takes a lot of time to put in, a lot of effort,
pacing team work, brilliant ideas of productivity from the team,

innovation, cleverness, and more than everything, being prepared to
put in a lot of hard work and work hard. This is of course from one
perspective very fun and interesting as well, but it also causes tons

of frustration. And just like fun and excitement are emotions, so are
frustration, pain and deadlines fear, which all are included in game
making and development. A good way to try and start overcoming

that would be graph team meetings. Working on a single company
graph, like game math division, and try make a discussion on how
to improve the business, employer's assignments, team work, and

most importantly planning. Real learning c++ and gaining experience on
it does not come from learning tutorials, forums and books. But
applying what is read, by practing coding and building beta testing

phase building 
blocks. The first I already wrote in the part 2, means
write lines of code through extensive ( and immeasurable) repetition.
This means hard iteration, works similar the process of a code loop

iteration in the CPU. The second is to make code, design documents,
design test documents and charts on beta testing.

These beta testing and building blocks are then used for organizing
code and their development project. So if you'll be using charts,
make a chart of square building blocks of the beta testing. Another

thing you can do about the building blocks is to test the actual beta
code. Deadlines can cause a lot of fear, which is where well planned
beta testing can come into the situation problem very handy and

right on time.

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 ...

object render, part 4

Object is either two dimensional, or three dimensional. Even abstract ones. People imagine c++ game objects as a part of a class on a graph chart, to understand the game and development mechanics. But they are really two dimensional, iso metric or three dimensional. They can be seen on the level or the level map, in other words, about 90% of used classes. Even server objects can be seen on the game, if there is any blue print or underlying real world net working mechanism. So in other words, the class objects can be used in game. They have to be dimensional. //PvE class Monster {     std::vector<int>  head_memory{};     std::vector<int> body_particles{}; public:     int get_memory(int element);     int get_particles(int element);     int get_head_memory_size();;     int get_body_particles_size(); }; Monster's head memory is used for AI render, the body particles list is used for rendering. 60 frames per second...
