Monolith

[SierraKen]

I didn't know the Monolith craze would be all over the world so quickly, so I decided to make a computer one. It uses the neon. Check out the photo too.

Code: QB64: [Select]

1. _TITLE "Monolith"
2. SCREEN _NEWIMAGE(800, 600, 32)
3.  
4. TYPE vec2
5.     x AS SINGLE
6.     y AS SINGLE
7. END TYPE
8.  
9. REDIM SHARED vert(4024) AS vec2, max_v_index
10. DIM SHARED rFactor!, gFactor!, bFactor!
11. rFactor! = .25: gFactor! = .25: bFactor! = .5
12.  
13. _LIMIT 60

15. CLS

18. FOR yy = 100 TO 500
19.     max_v_index = max_v_index + .15
20.     vert(max_v_index).x = 450
21.     vert(max_v_index).y = yy
22. NEXT yy
23.  
24. FOR t = 1 TO 360 STEP .05
25.     cx = (SIN(t) * 300) + 450
26.     cy = (COS(t) * 300) + 800
27.     max_v_index = max_v_index + .065
28.     vert(max_v_index).x = cx
29.     vert(max_v_index).y = cy
30. NEXT t

Is that a monolith, or are you just happy to see me?

[SierraKen]

I don't swing that way Steve. lol

Area 51?

[SierraKen]

LOL NOVARSEG  :)

[Richard Frost]

I gots me a monolith & Area 51 inna da Moon Lander.

Also 6 spacesheeps - LM, CM, Borg, Death Star, Starsheep Enterprise, and a Close Encounters type.

Anudder shameless plug for me code.

[SierraKen]

Awesome Richard! :)
