Did you search your system for .werk files? Maybe you are simply remembering it wrong(, I hope for your own good).
I am very much sure. All the files are new.
Alongside of the default files I had /Scripts/Objects/spells/stream.lua
inside weapons I had something like FPSgun_edited.lua from when I started,
inside player I had FPSPlayer_custom.lua
along with the other maps, I had something like PROJECT.map, not sure if that was the name, but I remember it was all caps.
The update deleting my files is the only possible issue. Searching for .werk files results in only the default file that is fresh, searching for stream.lua turns up nothing. To add to that, the 'recent' files in both map/script editors don't have any traces of the files I've previously worked on.
Is it possible that, because I was using the default project instead of my own, the default .werk file was loaded with the update, removing any changes I've made?
-
You can change the default location of the projects directory in the options dialog. However, I don't think projects were ever stored anywhere but the documents folder, by default. Some time ago, the config and log file locations were also moved to the documents folder, to make it easier for people to find.
I'm fairly sure that my projects were in the .leadwerks folder, and that a week ago it wasn't in my documents folder, and now it's the ONLY thing in my documents folder. (because I don't use my native documents folder, I use a documents folder on another drive)
Whether or not, my Leadwerks files are GONE. I had them right with all the other default project files, including a map, new scripts (including one in a new folder) and they're all missing. I did pre-2015 updates and every time it would start right up to my scene telling me I needed to update my project, now there is no trace whatsoever that I have done anything.
-
I have no idea what this is about. There have been no such changes. Are you talking about the projects folder or the application files themselves?
The projects folder (what once was ~/.leadwerks) . Where it was before still exists, but only with 'Leadwerks.log' in it, and the project I was working on before (map and scripts) are gone. Now the projects folder is in a newly-created ~/Documents/Leadwerks
This happened with the 3.4 update.
-
So the newest update seems to have moved from .leadwerks in the home folder to Leadwerks in the Documents folder..... all of the old files are just gone?
Why were the map and scripts files not moved instead of deleted? Or at least left alone so the user could deal with them?

Guppy, I personally use Arch because it used systemd (Ubuntu using upstart seemed a little slow to boot up) and the user repository makes it *much* easier to get software that isn't in (or updated in!) the official repos (adding repositories in Ubuntu is a MAJOR mess) and generally I want to be using updated software (VLC and WINE were usually my issues) rather than what it was updated to when the distro was released. That being said, I use nVidia so it's not an issue.
Greb, I'm not sure of your setup, but if your situation is like mine (My computer is a pre-built, came with an ATI card, and I had driver problems on Windows) then maybe you should consider buying an nVidia graphics card (please disregard if you specifically bought an AMD graphics card). The sad fact really is that AMD has the WORST driver support out of all of the manufacturers when it comes to Linux. When it comes to gaming on Linux, AMD fans are gonna have a bad time. (one example is Borderlands 2 and BL:tpS released on Linux, states AMD cards are not and may not function properly)
Intel has the best open source drivers, and nVidia has the best proprietary drivers. Overall, nVidia gives the best experience for graphically intense operations. If you do, maybe you could just get something from the 400+ series in GTS or GTX and spend $100-$200 or less. These are a bit old but still support the newest version of OpenGL, you might even find a really nice deal for a used one.
-
Using Steam version on Arch (admittedly not fully up to date, Kernel 3.16.4-1-ARCH) Intel i7 CPU, nVidia GTS 450 GPU w/ driver version 343.22, no issues here.
Sounds like maybe another issue. Have you tried starting Leadwerks through terminal to see if that gives you a more specific reason for the error? Maybe your GPU is too old to support the OpenGL version, or maybe you have a library issue for some reason.

Try setting the position of the emitter at a fixed position somewhere in your level where you can actually view it. At least you can check if the emitter is properly working. If it is properly working then you know there is something wrong with the positioning code of the emitter.
So, I tried this and still saw nothing. I tried creating a light at a fixed point instead, that worked. I tried changed position/velocity, material, none of those fixed it. I also tried creating the emitter in different places, defining it differently, even full on in the main script didn't seem to work.
I believe I adapted my code from this reference page (see water/mist comments in spoiler above) and it seems like it has since changed (unless somehow, I found a very similar code snippet that instead used instances of an emitter), I tried making it like the new code and it didn't seem to help, either.

I have a problem with an emitter that still hasn't been solved, that is I'm trying to use an emitter as a weapon, but no particles [are visibly] created, and no errors are thrown.
If it's that I have the wrong position, velocity, speed, size, or some other issue entirely, I'm not sure. If there is some way I can figure out where particles are being created, or if someone could point out what mistake I'm making and how I should fix it, I would appreciate it.

How about Ctrl+shift+z for redo? Ctrl+y is completely annoying, Microsoft-y, Ctrl+shift+z is fairly common (Adobe+Autodesk products, Blender, and GIMP as examples) and I definitely prefer that.
Click+drag doesn't seem to work for adding things to the flowgraph editor (this can be done through the scene menu, though). The scrollwheel also doesn't scroll in the asset browser.
EDIT: A more native file browser (with more native styling, is aware of system bookmarks) would be preferred. For a good example, look at GIMP's open/save file browser. Or Google Chrome's. AFAIK it's either some kind of system request (like it queries the default file browser for it) or it's a standard component that knows where to look for bookmarks.

You are taking local camera position and it's always the same for camera. Use :GetPosition(true) and :SetPosition(place, true) to work with global position.
Thanks, I got it working now, that was one of my issues. (another was needing an offset so a non-colliding model would appear).
Why is it that SetRotation doesn't need to be done, but the rotation still occurs?
Also, am I doing something wrong with my emitter that would cause it not to work?

While in the weapon script I'd say self.player:GetPosition() should return an appropriate vec3.
To make a prefab afaik you create the entity with all its scripts, materials and such and then in the scene tab just do save as prefab. I know that if I don't give the name with the .pfb suffix then its not treated as a prefab. The prefab is your final step though, you do all the work on your created entity first. I wouldn't even consider looking at making something a prefab until I'd finished debugging the source entity.
As for the dual wield thing, for weapons and spells I'd guess you would need to pass an additional argument into the different weapon scripts signifying if they being used left or right handed. The scripts would then have to load either the left or right handed images and animations and also choose between left and right offsets to keep everything consistent.
I think I'm making sense....
I've switched over to trying to use a box that's repositioned, but so far it seems to not be working at all. It rotates with the view, but seems to stay in one place.
My specific code for that so far is:
function Script:Draw() local place place= self.player.camera:GetPosition() self.entity:SetPosition(place) self.animationmanager:Update() endFull script:

I'm sure my emitter isn't working, but it could be emitting somewhere I can't see, which is why getting the positioning working properly is important. I hope this has an easy fix, but there's so much non-basic stuff (view bob, bullet tracer, etc.) that makes it hard for me to understand how it's been (or how it SHOULD be) done.

Since you are just starting out I would encourage you to play around with the autopistol prefab. It think it is easier to edit an existing script rather than writing it from scratch. Majority of the ground work is already there.
Definitely look at everything that comes with the engine.
For example, many spells are really nothing but very flashy bullets. You'll have a cast (fire) anim + instantiate the spell effect (bullet) with travel and then on collision you can create another anim/efffect and add damage to the player. The existing gun code gives you a framework to adapt to your needs, much faster than starting from scratch.
My major problem is many things are behind the scenes, like how you see the weapon prefab, but there's no clear link to the script it uses (although it's clear if you're LOOKING for it in the scripts section)
I think I understand most of it, but trying to make my own script/prefab has not worked thus far. Even pasting in the autopistol's code into my script causes a sprite to appear at [0,0,0] which tells me I've made the prefab wrong. What I did was make a pivot near the player, attach the script in that, and make that into a prefab [i've tried different parent/prefab combos].
So my real question here, as I've not seen and tutorials on it yet, either/or
How do you actually MAKE weapon prefabs? Also,
How exactly am I supposed to be getting the user's position? What I thought worked doesn't seem to, so I'm assuming I'm missing some crucial piece? What about numbers for velocity, how does that work in relation to the player?
The reason why I'd like to make my own script is because what I'm trying to do is fundamentally different on many levels, and many things in the autopistol script don't really apply. I get that bolt spells *would* be useful to still use bullets (especially if I could attach an emitter to the bullet), but what I'm trying to do first is make a flamethrower/stream spell, so instead of a bullet I'd like to use actual emitted particles instead.
How exactly would I call the script manually instead of from a prefab? I already know that I'm likely going to abandon it later, because of the amount of possibilities for dual wield combinations it woudn't be worth making a prefab for each one (unless it's possible to load multiple weapon prefabs at once, say for left and right?).

1. Leadwerks is a game engine. Anything gameplay related has to be programmed. There are some gun examples in the deafult SDK but dual wielding is not part of that. This is something you would have to make yourself.
2. This is really complex stuff you are talking about here. I would not recommend doing this and rather use existing animations.
3. 2 answers here: Yes you can inlock the mouse: ShowMouse() to view it and making sure the Mouse coordinates are not centered every frame. Maximizing a window can also done by code. http://www.leadwerks.com/werkspace/page/documentation/_/command-reference/window/windowcreate-r462
1. I know, I was just thinking out loud and asking in case others knew something I didn't. So am I right in thinking in my situation I should be avoiding the weapon prefab situation altogether and just use scripts with needed variables (left/right hand, spell info) and call them through code?
2. Again, I know.... but when it comes to character customizability (different clothes, armor, etc) it would be an easier setup, and I'd love if I could make hits so they actually.... hit... rather than just passing through the enemy. I'd like it if the enemy hit could influence the way the weapon keeps going, along with the ability to cause dynamic destruction (cut off limbs, dent armor, collide weapons) is probably even more advanced, but something I hope I could eventually do.
3. Thanks! Tried both, and they worked perfectly. I never actually thought to look in app.lua (I didn't really know about it).....

Hello.
I recently purchased this program on Steam because I wish to make my own game, basically an RPG inspired by the many downfalls discovered after playing copious amounts of Oblivion/Skyrim. Things like gold/stature being relatively useless and easy to acquire, inventory management being tedious, useless items, and seemingly important things like bartering needing to be fleshed out. I also have tons of ideas on how the spell/combat system can be improved, and have story/mechanic ideas from an unrelated RPG idea I had previously.
One of the main reasons I was interested in Leadwerks was the Linux support, as it seems the Unreal editor does not yet support it (at least not according to their site), plus Leadwerks seems to be more user-friendly in a *few* ways.
Naturally, I have a few questions....
1. Is dual-wielding weapons supported, or would I need to somehow make custom scripts, and weapon-combo prefabs from those instead?
2. Is it possible to take a skeletal-like structure (like the FPSPlayer prefab) and animate that using kinematics and scripted modifications (such as for different weapons/spells) to do movements instead of pre-made animations? (obviously binding a skin to it later?)
3.With the indie version, is it possible to unlock the mouse so I can try maximizing the window?
Unrelated, how do I change my forum avatar? I don't see the option anywhere.

Yeah, a bit better, but still choppy. The AI level gives me around 7-15 FPS, which is uncomfortably slow. It's especially odd because it's not even rendering at 1920x1080, it's 1024x768.
Actually, even having lights enabled in the viewport makes it hard to navigate the AI scene in the editor.
EDIT: Ok, I think I solved this. If I close Steam and Chrome, the game performs fine (mostly, still some minor lag spikes when firing at enemies).
It also performs fine (with Steam and Chrome open) if I switch the editor's render mode to textured (turning lighting off).
So maybe it's a memory thing? My memory usage (with Steam and Chrome open) is 3.5 GiB.... maybe it's hitting the limit of memory a 32bit app can access? Is it running it [the game code] as 32bit?
EDIT2: Seems funky. Got it rendering in 1920x1080 now, with only the editor (rendering in wireframe) and Steam open, the AI level runs at 3 FPS just walking. Closing Steam, it's perfectly fine until combat starts (which gets choppy from gunshots/hits?), until the end of the level.
-
Debug mode will always run slowly. This is normal. I've noticed the Microsoft compiler in particular does really slow checks for STL errors.
It runs slowly in the normal mode, too, I just used debug mode to get the actual FPS. It still feels choppy, so I wouldn't doubt it only going 20 FPS.
-
I've noticed during the testing, performance is really bad.
Whether it's the AI testing level (3-10 FPS), 2 lights+floor+kicking around a box, or a particle emitter with high particle count, as soon as something starts happening it is visibly choppy. It is bogged down from 200 FPS to around 20 FPS with hardly anything going on, and I don't see why that could be, it's not like many unnecessary things are being rendered. (the moving platform level has more lights and moving shadows, unless that's different because the fixed movement path allows the shadows to be buffered)
Now my computer is a bit outdated (i7 860 CPU, GTS 450 GPU, 8 GBs of RAM), but it doesn't seem like it should be having this much trouble just from lighting, especially when I can play other games on medium/high graphics with better performance.
I'm not sure if this is a general issue, as I've only tried the Linux version, so it very well could be only an issue on that version of the software.
-
I agree. As a free-and-open format it should be supported by default. Every sound I record is stored as OGG.

If this hasn't been worked out yet, what about similar options?
I actually prefer using maximized windows rather than fullscreen, because then I'm less likely to lose track of time. Several games employ alternatives already, such as maximized bordered or maximized borderless windows.
In the case of "Don't Starve" and "Delver" , the game is aware of how much space is available after window decorations and panels, and resizes the context accordingly (maximizing the window removes the borders but leaves the title bar).
In the case of "Eldritch" setting the game to 1920x1080 without enabling full screen gives a borderless window-the game takes up the entire screen but leaves your panel visible. This is..... well, an easier option, as it does not seem to take in account how much space the panel takes up, just displaying behind it. My panel only takes up 20px at least, so you really shouldn't be placing crucial information that close to the edge, anyways.
I'm hoping that a resizable window with fitting context is an easy option. I was happy to see that the maximize button was not disabled on the game test window, but looked around and didn't easily find any easy way to unlock the mouse to try it. I've done it with OpenGL in Java (just basic stuff) so I know it's possible.
All files from .leadwerks in home folder, including user files, gone?
in Linux
Posted
There are no .bak files from Leadwerks anywhere on my system, and I've updated like 2-3 times.
I don't doubt that's the way it's supposed to be, but as I've said, there's no trace of anything I've done in Leadwerks. Even if it was lost some other way, I'd expect the 'recent files' lists in Leadwerks to still show memory of my old files (giving a 'this file cannot be found' spheal). All I'm saying is something happened. Maybe it was some edge case where I was a few minor versions behind, or maybe it's because I'm not on Ubuntu. If other people have this same issue, don't be surprised.
