    Re: VB: The Matrix [Exe+Source]

    Finally!

    Finally I had the time to take care about the screensaver problem (the Matrix didn't start when used as screensaver). The problem was mostly Windows, because it started the app minimized (only any only when it's automatically run as a screensaver - in preview mode or when starting the exe/scr manually everything worked fine). The solution was rather dirty but it works fine: A timer that waits a short period of time before initializing DirectX and stuff.

    Verry good, its a shame its just images not real random text thaugh, it would be good to see this with no dependancies, not that one image is an issue, it would just be a nice touch to something already nice.

    Signatures suck

    Re: VB: The Matrix [Exe+Source]

    awesome job, and idea.. i like it so much

    Ive found a little improvement. Youve forgot to remove the meshes that behind the cam. So you can see only a few of them, but not all, because theses arent two sided meshes..

    so.. just place a line at the sub Animate(), right after the If .Active line. Like this:

    Code:
                If .Active Then
                    If .Y > Camera.GetY Then ResetGroup A
    So if the cam is fly thru a line, then its going to behind the cam, its just reset the line. So you get a 30-50% improvement on the gfx, because you can always see the lines.

    Anyway. thanks for sharing this superb code, i love it!

    Wow, this is really awesome. I'm using it as a screensaver on my server, lol

    What would be even cooler tho, is that if you continued to develop it and add new things... just an idea

    REMEMBER TO RATE

    I think you can get it behind the icons using the SetParent API, I saw that once online. I can't find it though.

    Re: VB: The Matrix [Exe+Source]

    Hi all members,

    First of all, thanks Fox for this amazing code. I have added a timer to do a little script fonction.
    I will fix it in a .ini file in order to let each one make a scenario with the text.

    It seems tha the 0.2.9 of the source don't have the rotation and the bounce fonctions.
    Someone to reup the sources with these 2 fonctions ?

    I try to learn the camera rotation but the cCamera class is empty for this subject.

    The exe has the fonctionnality.

    Thanks a lot.
