Hello,

this is my first post in the agk Forum. Now I wanted to inspect the agk 'Tier 2'. To learn some commands and capabilities of AppGameKit, I have converted the demo project 'Space Shooter' from Tier 1 to Tier 2. I hope some one

I hope someone finds it useful. I look forward to comments and suggestions.

Note:
1. It is nearly one to one implementation.
2. In the File 'Player.cpp', function 'Fire Bullets' is a loop finished by 'goto'. I have learned that this is a bad programming style so I have taken a more elegant solution.
The corresponding part is commented out.

Btw: I have not seen Lee's video. So if a few thing are identical or similar that is purely coincidental.

I will convert this project further to include more c ++ elements.

Happy coding
MadBit

Hi, as I promised the project is now fully written in C++. This time with all the media files and an executable file. I commented the source code with my poor english. I hope you can do something with the comments.
Writing the comments have taken longer than to translate the project in c++.

This project (and this from the first post) need an environment variable 'AGK2_T2DIR'. This must be set manually.

So, open a console window and enters the following:

Now you must log out and log in again.
That's it.

Who has interest, just look into it.

Can you run both and see what the fps is on both. Would be interesting to see the performance difference if this is a straight conversion.

Sorry for the late reply. There is no performance differences, because there is too few program logic's inside. I've tested both versions with identical frame rates. (Laptop: ~ 1500 fps and desktop: ~ 4700 fps)
