The swizzle function is fairly simple. If you look at the offset into texture like this (bit 0 on the right):

Code: Select all

31                           v lg2(width)        0
by...by by by by by  my my my bx...bx  mx mx mx mx
bx,by are block coords of the 16×8 block within the texture. bx has log2(width)-4 bits, and by has 31-log2(width)-3 bits (ie, all the MSBs). mx,my are the coords within the block.

The swizzle function rotates the my-bx group left by 3 bits, giving:

Code: Select all

by...by by by by by  bx...bx my my my  mx mx mx mx
leaving by and mx unchanged in the offset.

Unswizzling is identical, except you rotate the my-bx group right by 3 bits.

I bet, but the outcome will be pretty damn cool, you could use it for metals like barrels or cars, or even organic stuff.

I would make a game where theres a fat kid. And you play as yourself through a touchscreen. And you poke the fat kid to make it cry. Then you feed it chocolate to make it feel better. But then it realizes it is a fat kid and starts to cry because it is a fat kid who cries because it is fat.

Alright, this is really frustrating.

You know how Facebook's ads on accounts are targeted to the specific owner of that account.

When I log on, virtually every ad is "Want to meet a cute girls who are single!?" or "Zoosk makes it easy for you to meet the girls you want!"

That's cold, Facebook.

Could be worse. I would be wondering if it was coming up with, "Want to meet a cute boys who are single!?" or "Zuusk makes it easy for you to meet the boys you want!" :roll:

Mine is a relationship status that's been set to 'Single' for a few years.

Yeah.

Also, Gary, if you could keep your disgusting Corgi-love habits off the forum, it'd be appreciated you sick monster.

That's actually clever, had I the boldness to do so and the desire to meet women over the Internet.

Careful now Aumaan, if they're cute and single they may have a case of crazy.

In my experience the crazy ones are the most trouble, and yet the most fun.

You just have to know when to quit, and more important how to end it without getting killed,stocked,slashed tires,broken windows, fake calls to the police saying your at there house trying to attack them when your really at a bar across town getting drunk with the new crazy girl you met, etc...

My rant: bitches be crazy!!!
