Thread of old, arise from thy grave!

While looking through the Quake 2 source code years ago I saw this:

void R_Flash (void)

So I changed it to this:

void R_Flash (void) // AHH-AHH!!!

You have to be a certain age. ;)

You have to be a certain age. ;)

I must be old enough then :D

I guess..

double d = 0.0d; // lols.. double d's.. 

:)

Here are some funny comments from the source code driving one of those LED displays you see at train stations.

Blending colours

// The question is: Will it Blend?
extern inline unsigned short blendColours( unsigned short colour1, unsigned short colour2, unsigned char startPosition, unsigned char endPosition, unsigned char position, unsigned char blendDistance )
{
	return ((((colour1&0xF00)>>8)*(endPosition-position)/blendDistance + ((colour2&0xF00)>>8)*(position-startPosition)/blendDistance)<<8) | ((((colour1&0x0F0)>>4)*(endPosition-position)/blendDistance + ((colour2&0x0F0)>>4)*(position-startPosition)/blendDistance)<<4) | ((colour1&0x00F)*(endPosition-position)/blendDistance + (colour2&0x00F)*(position-startPosition)/blendDistance);
}

Writing to shift registers at high frequency

// output serial data
for( x = 0; x != 8; x++ )
{

	// NOTE: my god, I hope the shift registers can handle this without delay. It's torture I say, TORTURE
	// NOTE2: On second thought, they *were* a pain to solder. I guess it's only fair to punish them

	// output next 6 bits
	P3OUT = pixelArray[x][y][currentPWMCycle];

	// write them to shift registers
	P3OUT |= SHIFT_REGISTER_WRITE;
}
