SoDA Meeting: Embedded Scripting for Games
Hello, SoDA members!
Our upcoming meeting will be held this Thursday, March 29, 2012 from 6:30p to 9:30p in BYAC 110. Pizza will be provided.
Our guest speaker, Jeremy Wright, professor of the C++ Practicum and professional code writer will be discussing embedded scripting for video games.
We will be presenting in C++, how to use Flex, and Bison to parse a custom command language; Then we’ll show how to add this command interpreter to a basic game. We’ll have a simple SDL graphics layer, and manipulate C++ objects at runtime. It should be very interesting. We’ll post the code after the talk so students can download it, and use it in their own projects. I will be live coding the project (in vim…
).
Be there!
SoDA @ Engineering Open House
Hey there! As many of you have probably heard, the Fulton Schools of Engineering are hosting a special event called the Engineering Open House, in which many intelligent students will present exhibits highlighting engineering through the use of fun demos. As software developers, this is easy for us, as most of our projects from classes or from personal work are all demo-able. For this reason, SoDA is requesting an area so that we can show off what many of our members have accomplished during their education at ASU.
More info: http://more.engineering.asu.edu/openhouse/
Please contact us (asusoda@gmail.com) if you would like to be a part of our exhibit. This is a great chance to get feedback about your creations, and to network with others.
Thanks!
