PS is there any indication how this might integrate with 3D TVs/games? now or as a project for the future?

Do I only do that for the 'courier' field, or do I do the same for the rest of the float fields? I really don't know who created this project, but I'm supposed to fix it.

I was going to let this just blow past and use the excuse of "it's just a Wii rip-off" to justify not spending the money I don't really have on this. Shouldn't have read this review -- I really want one now. What about the games? Does the Kinect come with any games? How much do they cost? I've heard they are $70, more expensive … Re: I have played with the future and it's Microsoft Kinect shaped Hardware and Software by happygeek It comes with Kinect Adventures (bunch of mini games, nothing special but fun for a bit) with other games costing the same as any Xbox game. Avoid joy ride, the demo really sucks. Sports is good though, and if dance games are your thing then Dance Central is as good as the genre gets. Re: I have played with the future and it's Microsoft Kinect shaped Hardware and Software by happygeek Bit of a pop quiz here folks: how many Kinect owners reading this think it is too laggy? I've honestly not experienced this myself, apart from when going a little too mad with Sports boxing, but some complain it lags loads. I wonder if it is an environment/room/lighting issue for those who are getting Kinect lag? Re: I have played with the future and it's Microsoft Kinect shaped Hardware and Software by WASDted having used it several times while it was still in "beta" I can attest that it is quite smooth and lag-free. I found it intuitive and quite liberating in certain game genres. can't wait to get one. Re: I have played with the future and it's Microsoft Kinect shaped Hardware and Software by diafol Ah, I just read the small print at the top - it's an extension for the xbox. Bah. I thought it was a new standalone thingy. Sounds good, but I can't afford an xbox as well. :( Re: I have played with the future and it's Microsoft Kinect shaped Hardware and Software by happygeek The Xbox/Kinect bundle deals are pretty good at the moment, nice new style Xbox with a Kinect sensor and a dedicated port to plug it in (no external power for Kinect required) with a 250GB hard drive for under £300. Re: I have played with the future and it's Microsoft Kinect shaped Hardware and Software by happygeek The lag issue is an odd one, and I'm now starting to think it must either be environment related (bad lighting, room size, whatever) or dodgy hardware (faulty Kinect sensor) as I have only heard of a handful of people who are complaining about it while pretty much everyone else I've spoken to, and there are dozens of them now, say that lag is no … Re: I have played with the future and it's Microsoft Kinect shaped Hardware and Software by diafol OK, IF I go for a Kinect, I need a 360. I've heard that the Live internet-play thingy is extra on top of this, even though I've got a broadband connection. Is this true? My boy has been hankering over the PS3 as it has free internet play. I have no idea what this means. SO if considering PS3/XBOX, does Kinect tip the scales in favour of 360? Re: I have played with the future and it's Microsoft Kinect shaped Hardware and Software by happygeek I have both Xbox 360 and a PS3, and the PS3 pretty much just sees use as a (pretty decent it has to be said) Blu-ray player these days. The Xbox has, in my opinion and that of my kids (10 and 12, boy and girl) the best games and by far the best online multiplayer experience. Yes, Xbox Live Gold (which is what you need if you want to play online … Re: I have played with the future and it's Microsoft Kinect shaped Hardware and Software by WASDted Agree with above! Re: I have played with the future and it's Microsoft Kinect shaped Hardware and Software by EvolutionFallen Agilemind: Regarding your "detail" question, on a video I watched about the fitness game, they said they can track around 1,000,000 points on the body (if I remember correctly). Don't know much more than that, but it sounds like a lot to me. Especially considering that the Wii could only track whatever is holding the remote and the … Re: I have played with the future and it's Microsoft Kinect shaped Hardware and Software by WASDted by the way, you don't need an Xbox to fuss around with Kinect. there are many out there who have already hacked theirs, open source drivers are easily available. if you purchase just the kinect alone (without the xbox bundle) you get the standard USB connector, plug it into your PC and get hackin' i'd love it if one of you programmers start a … Re: I have played with the future and it's Microsoft Kinect shaped Hardware and Software by william.goo.3 I use kinect to hold hands with other poeple on xbox live in video games Re: DB access error Programming Web Development by nonshatter [CODE]`courier` float NOT NULL default '0',[/CODE] Needs to be: [CODE]`courier` float(4,2) NOT NULL default '0',[/CODE] Or however many digits you want each side of the decimal point. E.g. Float (2,2) is a number like 23.96 or Float(4,7) gives a number like 1234.1234567 Or it could be that you don't need to have a Float data type at all.… Re: DB access error Programming Web Development by nonshatter Yes, you will need to do the same for all fields that are of FLOAT type. Make sure you compare the field with the data that's being inserted into the table. From what I can see, all the data being entered into the courier field is of integer type. Whereas the price and total fields are float. Re: DB access error Programming Web Development by boet Hi everyone I have a little problem I don't know how to fix. When I add data into the 'Preke' fields and click the submit button, it takes me to a blank page. It's suppose to take me to the 'Preke' page where the new info that's added, is displayed at the top of the page, with the rest of the old info underneath.

If you are testing this on a localhost machine, then set PHP errors_all to on and display errors to on. so that the errors will show rather than a blank page.
