Farseer simple samples on Codeplex

August 16, 2008 17:25 by Mads

As you might know, I created some small "simple samples" in silverlight 2.0 for the Farseer Physics Engine here on my blog. Today I have started putting them on Codeplex.com. I thought I would put them some place else then my blog, as more people maybe will benefit from them, and I have a nice work item/source controll for free also (TFS).

In the first release there is only one single project called "Demo1". It's showing you how to make the farseer engine run, as simple as possible. The samples also works a a kind of tutorial /tutorial, as there is pretty many comments in the code, where I try to explain why I do the different kind of things.

Enjoy - http://www.codeplex.com/Farseersimplesamples

Requested registry access is not allowed -FIXED

August 11, 2008 22:00 by Mads

Today I got so mad at my VS 2008 I desided to fix this problem I have had for some time now. I wrote another blog post about it alittle while ago.

TODAY I FINALLY FOUND A SOLUTION TO THE PROBLEM! :)

I found this blogpost about how to fix it. It is actually very easy to do.

Here is what you need to do:

Download "subinacl" here. This is a command-line tool that enables administrators to obtain security information about files, registry keys, and services, and transfer this information from user to user, from local or global group to group, and from domain to domain.

After installing subinacl.exe (it will be in the C:\Program Files\Windows Resource Kits\Tools folder.), drop to a command prompt and run the following batch file, which you have saved in the same folder with the filename "FIX.bat":

subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VisualStudio.vbproj.9.0 /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VisualStudio.vbproj.9.0 /grant=users=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VisualStudio.vbproj.9.0 /grant=system=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VisualStudio.csproj.9.0 /grant=administrators=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VisualStudio.csproj.9.0 /grant=users=f
subinacl /subkeyreg HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\VisualStudio.csproj.9.0 /grant=system=f

 

Enjoy!

 

UPDATE: I just found out that this only solved half my problem :( Before I couldn't create an new Silverproject or add an file to any project at all. I tried out this fix, and it solved the problem where i couldn't add files to an project. Sadly didn't solved my Silverlight problem...need to reinstall Vista I think...

Collision with Farseer Physics Engine (1.0.0.6)

July 17, 2008 21:01 by Mads

Brandon Trabon wrote me (a comment on this post) the other day and said thanks for my "simple-samples" for the Farseer Physics Engine. It had helped him getting started with the engine, which makes me very happy to hear, as that were the exact reason I created them.

Thanks Brandon.

As a bonus Brandon have made similar sample with collision too, so I have put this on my blog too.

Note: I haven't been able to test this my self due to my Silverlight 2 beta 2 problems, but I'll put it up anyway with this disclaimer :)

Download the sample with collision of the Farseer Physics Engine 1.0.0.6 here

Got my iPhone 3G

July 11, 2008 09:50 by Mads

Last night I got my iPhone 3G after being in queue for about 8 hours. Just before it became my turn they told us that the 16 GB black were sold out :(

So I had to buy a 8 GB black instead, couldn't leave without it after 8 hours in the rain. Now I just need to play around with it and learn how it works.

Reason for Silverlight inactivity...

July 2, 2008 23:14 by Mads

I thought I would just inform you why I haven't posted anything about Silverlight 2.0 beta 2. I am in a "typically" beta situation... which means that the new beta doesn't work. 

When SL 2 beta 2 came out, I uninstalled the SL2 beta 1 from my desktop, rebootet, and installed the new SL 2 beta 2. Somehow it managed to f*** something up. So everytime I try to create a SL 2 beta 2 project I get this error:

  "Requested registry access is not allowed."


That is pretty annoying!

I have tryed to uninstall VS2008 and reinstall it, but it still gives me the same error. I have tryed to google the error message but haven't found a solution yet...

Last time I had a similar situation I went from XP to Vista, so I had to reinstall my OS anyway, but I refuse to reinstall Vista already!

If anybody out there have a solution to this, PLEASE let me know!

iPhone 3G - Give us free traffic Telia!

June 29, 2008 23:49 by Mads

In Denmark the iPhone 3G is only sold through Telia and only with one subscribtion plan. This plan only includes 300 MB of data per month, which is way too low for a phone like iPhone 3G.

Therefore some people have created an website, where they request everybody to send an email to Telia about this issue. 

Visit the website here - VildMediPhone.dk

See the Google translated website here (english)

iPhone 3G - Incoming

June 28, 2008 11:33 by Mads

I know I normally blog about Silverlight, .NET, Game development etc. Much of this is Microsoft related as I'm a Microsoft user and developer. When that is said, I have to say that I think I am going to by the new iPhone 3G!

When I first heard about it some weeks ago, I wasn't really that impressed. I knew about the old iPhone and I have seen it briefly as one of my colleagues had one. I haven't ever thought of it as a phone for me. All I saw was a fancy looking phone.

But then some weeks ago I heard about the new iPhone 3G and the new 2.0 OS it's running on. Actually I don't know why, but after that I started doing alittle researh on it. Now I have to say that I'm absolutely sold to that phone! I need to have one July 11th 2008! Cool

Again, I'm 100% Microsoft man normally, but this phone just seems to have everything I need and a new way of thinking the interface. So I have to have one!
