I have a Corsair K95 RGB which has no rollover key limitation. It's a pretty pricey mechanical keyboard - you get what you pay for. I went and tested the issue you are having with my codebase. I was able to hold down a whole bunch of keys and still get events through on others e.g. crouch while hold...

Nah, I'm not smart, just lucky. A lot of people seem to have crash issues with Schematyc. I have heard that turning off the preview (or whatever it is) can help prevent those crashes. It's the window that shows you what the Schematyc entity will look like in the world. I don't have that running at a...

Some older parts of my code which were basically lifted from GameSDK do have calls to CryStringUtils::HashString and use CryHash - though I expect to deprecate most of that over time. Why do you expect that? Is the code of CryStringUtils::HashString bad? The code is probably fine but I prefer to un...

I've had pretty good luck so far with Schematyc, with only one crash that I can recall. It's not hard to use once you get the hang of it. It's still a work in progress though, so lack of features and some crashes are to be expected. I've made a few schematyc entities which make use of state machines...

I actually cover the entire process from start to finish in this video.

You need access to Maya and Motionbuilder to do all the steps, but you can at least get the character into the engine using only Maya. Motionbuilder is required to re-target a set of animations onto the new rig.

I've been using a CHashedString whenever I need something to represent a hashed string and so far it's worked everywhere I've needed it. Just construct one from a string or char* and off you go. Some older parts of my code which were basically lifted from GameSDK do have calls to CryStringUtils::Has...

I use Schematyc::CSharedString for strings that need to be reflected in Schematyc. Just replace 'string' with 'Schematyc::CSharedString' and off you go. Use the .c_str() method if you need access to the unlaying string.

Sadly, irony doesn't convey well in text form. The post was an ironic response to a person asking for someone to build him a complete third person shooter game for something like $250, which is an absurd request no matter which engine was selected. The joke part of that was the off-loading of them o...

I received an official warning notice a month or two back in response to a link I posted to the Unity site. I'm not out to bash Unity, just letting you know that they don't like links to it here on the forums.

The angle between two vectors should just be the dot product. This is scaled from -1.0 to 1.0 which is actually perfect for plugging into many calculations. Convert it to some other scalar if you really need to. Let me Google that for you . That's a pretty 'mathy' page, but at least it will have fac...
