This must be a common question, yet I can't find an answer to it anywhere. I have embedded Python in a C++ app. All I want to be able to do is give some Python/C API function some python code in the form of a string, and get a PyObject that represents the result of evaluating that code. So...

From reading the python FAQ, I know that PYD files are basically equivalent to DLLs (with the exception of the required init function, and the way python looks for the module). So, I would like to rename a PYD file I made to the DLL extension, and have Python load it as a "DLL." I want to do...

Hi, i recently switched from the directx8.1 SDK to the directx9 SDK, and then I downloaded and isntalled the directx9 SDK Upgrade (Summer 2003). Since it's called an "Upgrade," I figured I could just install it without removing the original DirectX9 SDK but then it made another DXSDK in my root...

What's the difference between Elements 2.0 and Photoshop 6.0 or greater? please list. thanks.

I use gmax, which hopefully is similar to 3d studio enough for this question to be pertinent. After I made my model, I assigned 33 different material IDs to it, UVW Mapped all 33 groups, unwrapped the whole thing, and partially textured it. When I exported it as a Quake MD3 file , and opened...

Hi, I used gmax to create a low-ish poly model that I plan to use in a game. Now, certain items such as hair or thin articles of clothing that don't stick to the body (like a collar or flap or something) are not really 3d in some games... it is clear that the modeled surface is 2D and...

Game systems like ps2 have high bit processors, like 128-bit. If that's better than most computers' processors (32-bit and some 64-bit) then why aren't computers made with higher bit-age? (is that a word?) would that not yield sweeter computers?

Is there any way for a frame to send some sort of message to the parent window. Right now, I have this site I am making, and I want certain things to change in the parent window based on the current location of the iframe. I know that from the parent window, you can check the URL of the iframe...

Hi, I recently downloaded dx9 sdk and i read in its readme that all previous versions of directx sdk should be removed before installation. so i went to the add/remove programs thing (windows 98) and i selected directx 8.1 sdk and clicked add/remove. the installShield wizard came up saying...

When I use msvc++'s (6.0) menu-maker in the resource editor, I get a normal, plain menu. And no matter how much I look, I can't seem to find an option that will allow you to put those little icons next to the menu commands. I have an idea about what I want my menu to look like...

I know you can use CreatePatternBrush to make a bitmap loaded from a file into a pattern that can fill a gdi shape such as an ellipse. I also know that in windows 95 (and 98 although msdn doesnt say so) it will only take the first 8 x 8 pixels if the image is bigger than that. IS THERE ANY...

Just today, I was going through my folders when i noticed that two new icons that I have never seen before were there next to my up icon. They are the map network and disconnect icons and I've never had them there before. I haven't installed any software that would so something like that and I...

Couple days ago, my comp was on DOING NOTHING and I was away for a sec... then when I came back, there was the blue-screen saying I had a disk-write error. Ever since then, when I start up, RIGHT before it loads windows, it requires me to press F1 to resume, when I've never had to do this...
