Hey people ^_^ Couple of questions if anyone does''nt mind ^_^ First of all, does anyone have any links regarding realtime strategy programming, like path finding, enemy AI etc, but for someone who has never attempted a RTS before??? Secondly, I would really like to program fur effects into my games. Any ideas using openGL??? A sotware approach would be most helpful at the moment (as I only have a voodoo 3000 PCI at the mo), but hardware tips would be useful for when I upgrade. Thanx, all the best, Dan Transformers Rulez!!

The best resource that I''ve found for RTS''s is this site:
http://www-cs-students.stanford.edu/~amitp/gameprog.html

It doesn''t have any "RTS Game Programming for dummies" kind of thing but it has several tutorials regarding AI, scripting, game design, and tile based games. As for FUR, I believe there is a thread here at gamedev in the Game Programming forum discussing it in games

Good luck

actually, it was moved to the Graphics Programming and Theory board, and the thread can be found here.
