ZQuestClassic VS resume

I've been doing some modernization on an old scripting language used by the game engine I work on [1]. Added a garbage collector, simplified how internal symbols are defined, added a VS code extension with some niceties like syntax highlighting, "Go to Definition", and doc tooltips. Also recently added support for websockets and plan to tackle JSON soon.

ZQuest Classic - Engine to play and create games like the original Zelda. C++, OpenGL

Developing a new website for the open source game engine I work on. Nearly finished with it.

https://zquestclassic.com

It's a Zelda-like game engine with some 1000ish games made in it over 20 years. Used to be called Zelda Classic, but we renamed it this year.

Thanks, that was a silly oversight. Your comment is appreciated, as it saved an instruction in my game engine's JIT compilation :)

I found Sentry's crash reporting (which uses crashpad) simple enough to configure into an existing CMake build within an afternoon.

Building Sentry/crashpad from source in a few lines of CMake: https://github.com/ArmageddonGames/ZQuestClassic/commit/3471...

And a few lines in the main function: https://github.com/ArmageddonGames/ZQuestClassic/commit/3471...

My hobby is working on a 20+ year game engine. Still occasionally delete DOS-only code in it. https://github.com/ArmageddonGames/ZQuestClassic

```

The `Hero.{x,y}` properties here are a custom fixed precision number class with some implicit conversions to int, which I suspect being relevant to the crash.

Using it locally too, works great on Mac, but on Windows ccache has some problems caching debug builds. IIRC the embedded debug symbols use absolute paths, so the presence of this particular flag (/Z something...) disables cache eligibility.

i love zelda. if interested in custom quests on pc, go to zeldaclassic.com 100s of custom quests

If you'd like to try custom quests on computer, go to http://zeldaclassic.com

I am participating in a competition of a wannabe IT guys when some mentor is searching for one such a student. I have summed exactly his proposal which he has published in Russian and all my work and I have ended up with a 19-page whitepaper 6 pages of which describes my original tradebot idea, in English of course. If you know how real tradebots work feel free to help me to enrich my understanding. Current status of my participation is waiting for the day when the winner will be defined.
