• Software Development for Windows Vista WWF and SCORM

  Is there any research or effort ongoing at Microsoft (James ) on using WWF in a SCORM compliant solution I'm referring to the ADL Sequencing specification (SCORM 2004 Sequencing and Navigation). Is Microsoft interested in SCORM at all There is very little info on Microsft.com on e-learning, specifically on Learning Management Systems (LMS). Looking at WWF and SCORM, it may be a task as simple as providing an XSLT transform between XOML (XAML) and SCORM XML, or a more complex task of providing a set of SCORM compliant activities or a SCORM Sequencer.   Thank you for any feed-back you may have :) ...Show All

Because it is easy to make interface with it Now I am learning how to script. I made the first "Hello, World!" Example in photoshop scripting guide And it worked perfectly.

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. Players move faster at higher framerates

  Okay, this is really bad. Clearly, a hard-coded "2" that's applied to my character's "Left" property on every frame render isn't going to cut it. Obviously, the game will run slow on crappy hardware, and there's not much I can do to prevent that. But the game shouldn't run faster on really good hardware! How can I cap the movement speed, or better yet, guarentee a certain speed within reason I can already calculate frames per second, and how much time has elapsed between each render, so I'm sure it's just some simple multiplication thing I have to do from there... but math was never my strong point! How do I do this PS, it would ...Show All

• Game Technologies: DirectX, XNA, XACT, etc. DirectX or Managed DirectX ?

  Hello, it's my first post here ;) I've been developing in DirectX for several years (using c++). I am thinking if it's worth to move to the "managed world" I can do everything in c++ and directx but creating apps in c# and mdx is much faster and simpler.
