Dungeon Generation

As shown in other post, world-maps can be generated in a lot of interesting and creative ways. I decided to focus on generating a dungeon, as I found it both fun and challenging. In this set of post I'll try to show my experimentations on the subject.

World Map Generation - 2

 This note is a continuation of our series on world generation methods.

"SORT" is not stable !

Once in a while, you find something that challenge everything you thought you knew about a given subject. In may case I just found the the sort order using the default SORT ... BY X Y is not stable. That is, if you have several element with the same X and Y, they can be sorted in any order, and there is no guaranty that they will be sorted in the same way by consecutive sorts.

World Map Generation 1

It’s fairly commonly knowledge that generating a map can be done in a lot of different ways. This post is the first on a set that will speak of the ideas and algorithms we used to create the map for our toy program to display.

Global Jam Service Paris-Est Marne-la-Vallée

Another year, another great Service Jam. For the second time this was done on the ground of  university "Paris-Est  Marne-la-Vallée". The theme was, once more, both very simple and quite brainstorming : 

Yes, No, Yes, No, Maybe, No, Yes

Changing the DataMatrix code size

Another (very) short article/news. This time about a problem when using Adobe LifeCycle in SAP (transaction sfp) : if you add a dataMatrix code to the page, the size of the code seems to be fixed. This article gives a very quick fix to this problem

oData date property cause an "invalid value" error

This small article is to describe a problem with some date property that arises during the creation of an oData entity : one date was generating an "invalid value" error (return code code 500). This was occurring after we filled the return structure, with the correct value.

New Mesh generation

After a long time being blocked by professionnal projects and constraints, I come back to my small self-learning game project. I made several modification to my project, mainly on the graphical side, following a brutal change of PC with no save...

Global Jam Service Paris-Est Marne-la-Vallée

Since a few years, my wife partcipate into the "Global Jam Service", a Jam where you have to prototype a innovative service in 48h.  Last year I decided to also participate, seeing this as a way to learn new methodologies, while having fun. 

Corrupted PDF Generation in ABAP

PDF generation in ABAP is simple, and a lot of tutorials show how to develop an application that generate such a PDF and save it on the back-end or on the front-end. However, from times to times, the generated PDF is corrupted. This occured for several clients. This notes describes the problem, and provide a solution.
