Okay... back when I was using SDL, I used to have 35 different images for one sprite, rotated at 10x degrees for each image, x being the image number. Now that I'm using OpenGL I dithced that system, and just used glRotate. Much better. However, I'm getting into a problem of per pixel collision detection. Back in SDL, I just found the area of the overlapping rectangles, checked to see if the alpha values were above 0 in the same places, and if they were, return true. Now, since I only have a copy of the image facing north, how exactly would I go about collision detection?

Been trying to teach myself different things lately in an effort to combat boredom, just tried graphical design with cinema 4d and photoshop to make renders, got that down pretty good, now I want to learn how to do some remixing and whatnot. Downloaded Fruityloops and basically had a headache from not knowing wtf to do. Anyone out there know a good prog for remixing songs and making trance/techno tracks? Something basic and easy to learn with. Thanks.

I'm trying to find the right approach to hacking rconpasswords in quake 3 based games. After doing a lot of research, I've come up with three options: 1. "Rcon Sniffer" by searching in packets sent/recieved from the server. 2. Some sort of client side hack, that exploits some bug in the specific game. 3. Something I haven't thought of yet. If it's option 1, I do know how to do it in a lan situation, but I don't see how it can apply to an internet server: If the admin's password goes from him to the server, it never comes inbetween me and the server, so how can I intercept it? If it's option 2, I've already tried this approach, and the game I'm trying it …
