Ah sure, so we can't change what the threads are doing? If not, could you allocate the numbers to the thread in a non-sequential way? For example, could you say thread 1 has all the even numbers while thread 2 has all the odd numbers (which obviously would not be balanced correctly, it's just for an example)?
Language: javaint currentThread = 3; // this is a serial number of the thread (0..N) int begin = 1; int end = 30 - currentThread; int totalThreads = 4; for (int i = end; i >= begin; i-=totalThreads) { // i = i - totalThreads System.out.println(i); } //27 //23 //19 //15 //11 //7 //3
If you're trying to find all of the prime numbers in a range, a much faster way to do it instead of checking each number individually for primality is to use a sieve. ...
What we should all hope for is that Vita decides to do a Doom 2 UV-Speed TAS! He's a freakishly good TASer and IMO if he made one it'd be the closest thing we'd have to being considered unbeatable.
Thanks for the vote! I plan to do an Episode 2 TAS at some point in the future since a new trick has been found for it since Akse did his 3:02 TAS, but I likely won't do an Episode 3 or 4 one. I am heavily considering making a Doom 2 TAS, though.
It would also be great to see some 100% or Nightmare on this.
Yes, as Dimon said if you don't mind please use the PrBoom+ Source Port for superior results. Speaking of Smooth Demo Playback, if you do decide to use it, there is a setting "Smooth Demo Playback Factor" which changes, well, the degree of smoothness. 1 is the lowest setting with no real perceptible difference and 16 is as smooth as it goes. I think 6 is the default factor when the setting is on, but personally I think that 3 is the sweet spot. For the video I included in the original post SDP was turned off. SDP off would be obviously the closest to actual real gameplay but having it on makes it more enjoyable to the majority of viewers so I guess it depends on your thoughts about strict authenticity vs enjoyment.
At least that makes sense! I wonder how the system understood that skill "29" up there ( http://tasvideos.org/userfiles/info/62362112029546753 ) ; )
What is this message about: "ALERTS POSSIBLY COMPROMISING MOVIE INTEGRITY: Skill 3 1 players"? (top of the submission page) This is Skill 4... : P
Not to derail the thread but Dimon12321 (in addition to being a cool dude and encoding the Episode 1 TAS above) has in the past done an individual level e1m9 UV-Speed TAS. Here it is if you're interested. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H-soLcUdRbA
Within a single frame there are technically 93,645,180 different input combinations possible, accounting for the full range of running speeds, strafing speeds, turning angles, weapon changes, potential firing, and "using" switches and doors.
they encode keypresses that are then "played back" by the game
