This article is an incredible read on the game Pacman. It's incredibly detailed and even goes into collision detection, level design, and kill screens.

I always find stuff like that fascinating. I read an article like that on the original metroid once, much much more complicated game, but it did explain exactly what caused the glitches and what their result is too.

Read something on the original pokemon game too, with the missingno glitch and its cause. Its interesting stuff

I also found that pac-man write-up very interesting. A year and a half in development and revolutionized gaming. Having an idea man directing artists, sound makers, and programmers worked out I guess.

Yep. The actual objects are handled by native code.

Doing the useless

var a = ({ x : 123 }).x;

would be like

string 'x' // key int 123 // value object 1 // pop 2*n values, push object with n fields getprop 'x' // pop object and push the field value setreg 1 // assign value to function-local register

So it doesn't actually write to memory or anything, objects are values to bytecode as well.

You can check more out at http://haxe.org/com/libs/hxasm (links to a complete list of v9 ops).
I made an runtime script-to-bytecode compiler http://www.matumeistari.lv/stuff/console .swf, links to source, though that's also been succeeded by a compiler in hxformat as I never bothered to finish.

New Simpsons Theme

What do guys think?

Seems a bit too modern, although still pretty good. I quite like the nostalgia the older one provides though...

Hmmmm... it was very long, as long as they do a short version like they did before with only like 2 of the scenes, then i'm happy ^_^

I think it's above most of our heads, so we couldn't contribute constructively to the conversation anyway...

I just got SFIV yesterday, and thankfully my thumbs are already calloused from where I work, otherwise they'd be blistered. Damn I forgot how hard stuff is to pull off in SF games in general.

On that note, any others here with the 360 version of SFIV? If so, hit me up, my gamertag is CrazedChihuahua (if you're not on my list already).

They can't possibly catch everything like this... if that were in a print encyclopedia then that would be unprofessional, but with wikipedia's open source nature, you can't reasonably expect not to find things like this occasionally.

New Site Design!!!
Yeah! I finally finished the new design for SuperFlashBros.net! I've gone the wordpress route, like so many before me, but we really did need a content management system better than 'ftp the index.html to the desktop, copy and paste a news post table, write new details, ftp it back to the site'

I'd appreciate views/opinions/criticism!

well to be honest i don't think many people would bother to write articles about v-cam... I mean, after all it's just some user-created tool in Flash that not so many people even use. I find the more developped articles to be very precise and informative, and I think it's amazing that an open encyclopedia can be so accurate. And besides, although the article you linked does not seem to be very professionally written, it still describes what a V-cam does, in essence.

How would you have written it?

i went to highschool online and we had to use the same ftp system to upload all our homework. that was basically our first test, if we could understand that tedium, we could get into the real homework :P

the new site looks much better, its so fresh. and so clean-clean, but same good 'ol style. comments are nice until/if the forum ever goes in. is it a hassle to approve all them though?

I figured out how to crash a TI-89 calculator

type this in:

[[a, b, c, d][e, f, g, h][i, j, k, l][m, n, o, p]]^-1

and hit enter.

It will never compute! (or maybe I just didnt wait long enough)
