Implements dynamic textures into Unreal Engine 4, which can be dynamically written at runtime using the fastest way possible: by directly manipulating the pixel buffer of the texture.
// DynamicTexture
#include "DynamicTexture.h"
// UTextures have a BPP of 4 (Red, Green, Blue, Alpha)
#define DYNAMIC_TEXTURE_BYTES_PER_PIXEL 4
void UDynamicTexture::Initialize(int32 InWidth, int32 InHeight, FLinearColor InClearColor, TextureFilter FilterMethod/* = TextureFilter::TF_Nearest*/)
{
// Store the parameters

A brief overview of the work involved in testing complex narrative multimedia

Testing Large and Branching Narrative Entertainment

Overview

One of the most significant challenges in producing large works of text-driven multimedia is the work of testing. There’s a few basic reasons for that:

  • Games are designed in-flight, through iterative and playful processes, and so a pre-written set of test plans or user stories will invariably need further labor to keep pace with design.
  • Testing is easy to ignore in the context of deadlines.
  • Understanding and visualizing any narrative as a complex tree or directed acyclic graph, rather than a piece of “static” fiction which moves from A-Z (or א to ת, if you prefer), is extremely difficult. If this sounds hyperbolic, ask literally anyone who’s ever contracted with a VC-funded interactive televisual or multimedia startup.
  • Testing is subjectively different from programming in that nothing, not even the compiler, tells us whether we did it right. There’s no model, even in senior software engineering, which tells you whether your tests a

A History Generator; Also Does Timelines!
#!/usr/bin/env python
# source: https://gamedev.stackexchange.com/questions/23659/is-there-a-way-to-procedurally-generate-the-history-of-a-world
# to create a visualisation, run like this:
# ./historygen.py --dot | dot -Tpng > filename.png
# brew install graphviz to get the dot files rendering
# to have the story, run like this:
# ./historygen.py
# have your state names in the names.txt file
# now, all of this *could* be done with tracery i suppose, but you can see the bones of the
# history system could be expanded to model other aspects, keep track of things, calculate new things.
