If you are just adding values to a linear list like that you need to use the APPEND method, not the add method. myLinearList.append(myValue) As Kenneth said, the zeros are placeholders because you are stating the position in the list the value is to be added.

You have to make sure you're including the Xtra's in the projector. You do that like this: Modify-->Movie-->Extras In the listbox there you should see the BuddyApi Xtra there. If not, you need to add it. When you select the Buddy Api Xtra from the list, there are two check boxes beneath it...

In order to help you we would need to see the source of the SDK. Could you please post the link to the Xtra's website? Either myself or someone else should be able to help you then.

You can do this using the INTERSECTS or INSIDE function. 1.Intersects --Checks to see a sprite intersects another --If the sprite's ink is set to matte it uses the actual outline of the sprite (white pixels are the background). If the ink is anything else it uses the sprite's quad. --Since...

I'm attempting to build a library of custom elements that are deveride from various standard elements. For example, I created a rollOverImage element from an img element. It all works great until it gets to event handling. There doesn't seem to be an easy way to assign an event to a method with...

I have a class. This class is to call upon a function that i specify. How do I make callback function pointer reference thingy? So I can 'set' what function the class calls. Btw this function is defined outside of the class and is not part of the class. Thank you.

Thanks satrow! Now my drive came with nothing (except bubble wrap weeee fun!). Can I find this software online somewhere? It's a hitachi HTS548030M9AT00. Thanks!

I just got a new HD for an old Persario 1235 notebook. I installed it and it is recognized fine, however it only shows its is 8455MB large, when in reality it's 30,000. I looked online a little but couldn't find a BIOS update for this notebook. Is there a way to make the 30 work in this laptop...

I've never ran version 4 on any OS but I have run version 4.3 on Windows XP. I can't imagine why it wouldn't work. If you find it not working, try setting the program to run inside a windows 98 compatibility mode. I think the more important question is why you are using version 4...

BTW, its a Persario 1235. I looked into ram, and i can only add another 64, bumber! But i'd still curious as to exactly what kind. Also, it refers to the HD and CD drive as 'integrated' but they are totally removable and look like normal drives to me. Will a new HD even work?

Hi, I'm a desktop vetran, but a laptop noob. So my grandma got some new HP laptop and gave me her old persario. It's not too bad, AMD K6-2 266, 32mb ram. I've decided it wouldn't be that hard or expensive to upgrade to at least a level that I can load win XP onto it. So, I have 3 questions for...

Wireframe will work on any geometry. To make a half and half of anything, you need two seperate objects, because the wireframe property belongs to an object. This means to do a half and half box, you need two boxes. As for your object, the segments must be set up so you can divide it into two...

My first guess it that somehow each material ID also belongs to a different smoothing group. Smoothing groups tell MAX how you want the object's faces to be blended together. Faces that are in the same smoothing group that are next to eachother are blended together. When you have one group of...

You have to use a different UVW map for each leaf. UVW map is a modifier that allows you to access the UVW coordinates of a mesh. If you apply it while you have the whole mesh selected, it modifies the whole mesh. In order to do leaf by leaf, you must go into polygon sub-object mode, select all...

The best way to learn how to implement classes in c++ is throught an example. Today, it will be cFrog: class cFrog{ //public variables, or the class properties and methods go under public public: int weight; const char* name; cFrog(); //constructor definition ~cFrog(); //deconstructor...
