Angles greater than 114.59 degrees can't possibly be of any practical use

__forceinline float tan(float a) 
{ 
 return ::tanf(clamp(a, (-1.0f + FUZZY_EPSILON), (1.0f - FUZZY_EPSILON))); 
}

__forceinline double tan(double a) 
{ 
 return ::tan(clamp(a, (-1.0 + FUZZY_EPSILON), (1.0 - FUZZY_EPSILON))); 
}

We've had this in our code base since 2005 and have shipped 3 games on it, solid!

Giving New Meaning to Destructors

LRUCacheModel::~LRUCacheModel()

      delete entry;

When non-renderers modify your renderer

Dan was wondering why none of his post-processing steps aligned anymore, might be related to this that someone had added:

// round up to nearest divisible by 8

m_sceneWidth += ((m_sceneWidth&0x7) ^ 0x7) + 1;

m_sceneHeight += ((m_sceneHeight&0x7) ^ 0x7) + 1;

(1600,1200) became (1608,1208)

(Thanks to Dan)

Oops, shipped a stack memory overwrite we did

 Vec unpackedTransform[4];

#if defined(SPU)
    vecLoadHalf8(unpackedTransform[0], unpackedTransform[1], &sourceTransform->data[0]);
    unpackedTransform[2] = vecLoadHalf4(&sourceTransform->data[8]);
#else    
    // get alignment errors with both vecLoadHalf8 and convertHalfToFloat array, so use naive but working method instead
//  convertHalfToFloat(reinterpret_cast<float*>(unpackedTransform), &sourceTransform->data[0], 12);
    for (uint i=0; i<24; i++)
        reinterpret_cast<float*>(unpackedTransform)[i] = convertHalfToFloat(sourceTransform->data[i]);
#endif

Bug: FIX THE STUPID ERROR

Steps to reproduce
1:You suck anus hole. 2:every 20 seconds the game restarts internet
explorer. 3:you suck. 4:FIX THE STUPID ERROR! and 5: YOU SUCK!

Whooping and yanking

Hang After Passing An Assert When Yanking The Network Cable As The Last Gold Crate Explodes

The title does not seem to be asserting any longer, but it is still hanging after following the original steps (it is extremely timing specific, you must remove the network cable on the 35th 'whoop' of the alarm when the last crate is armed.)

We are obviously unable to provide you with a crash dump as reproducing this bug involves removing the network cable.
