[Lone Water: Prologue [On Steam Greenlight]]

tried to use the latest shaders? http://www.leadwerks.com/werkspace/topic/15383-underwater-shader/#entry103236

I'm afraid that other players may have this problem :/

[Lone Water: Prologue [On Steam Greenlight]]

good find, thanks!

Only shadmar can fix this I guess :/

Maybe I should put a option to disable post effects.

[Frame limiting or frame smoothing]

yeah looks like it's not possible now, but would be a nice feature.

[Frame limiting or frame smoothing]

I mean, force the game to run in a arbitrary frame-rate, like force a game run on 30FPS (not every genre need to be 60FPS). Vsync ("context:Sync(true)") will try to match the refresh rate of the monitor.

[Lone Water: Prologue [On Steam Greenlight]]

Released a new version today, I still need to update the game launcher version (**** internet)

 

This update will fix some of the spelling issues and also add a couple of rooms that were left out in the old release. You'll find a new memory and also a new note from Hiro Nagashi, so if you already played the game you'll have some surprises in this new version.

 

 

 

Changelog v_0.9.5 [uncut]

 

- Added new SSR Shader

- Added splash screen

- Fixed some spelling errors

- Removed the cars from the starting area

- Added new memory

- Added new note

- Detailed a bit more the rooms

- Added two new rooms

- Reduced the sfx volume of the water steps

- Improved wall textures of the storage room

[Frame limiting or frame smoothing]

A frame cap limit would be nice!

[Underwater Shader]

Say goodbye to his shaders :/

[Problems with context:DrawImage]

Just curious, what happens if you subtract 1 from context:GetHeight()? Or more?

context:DrawImage(self.overlayTexture,0,0,context:GetWidth(),context:GetHeight()-1)

 

Yeah, this does the trick, looks like the render don't like that we fill 100% of the screen, the shaders don't update the last few pixels of the screen height.

 

Thanks.

[Problems with context:DrawImage]

When I drawn a image to fill the screen with:

 

context:DrawImage(self.overlayTexture,0,0,context:GetWidth(),context:GetHeight())

 

and later stop drawing, you can still see a red little line of the overlay that I drawed in the botton of the screen, it's distracting :/

How can I properly clean the screen after a context:DrawImage ?

 

I tried with:

self.overlayTexture:Release()

context:SetBlendMode(1)

context:SetColor(1,1,1,1)

context:Clear()

 

No deal.

 

EDIT: This only happens when I use a Posteffects :/

 

[Carve creating unnecessary CSG]

Leadwerks 4.2 Release candidate

 

Looks like that when you use the carve option, it creates additional meshes across all the map.

Here says that your GPU supports DX11 and OpenGL 4.1, so the game should run very well on your rig.

Maybe there is something odd about it being a mobile card?

 

Maybe Josh can help us figure it out :/

 

There is already ppl playing the game without problems.

 

[Lone Water: Prologue [On Steam Greenlight]]

I have the latest AMD drivers =]

If this is a driver problem, every game builded with 4.2 beta will have this problem, which is concerning.

[memory leak when sending a string to the load function]

Thank you I'll look into it

[Lone Water: Prologue [On Steam Greenlight]]

Woaa, that's very odd.

I tested the game on AMD and NVIDIA gpus.

 

May I ask what's your PC specs?

 

Thanks.

[memory leak when sending a string to the load function]

When I use the normal Map:Load, the video memory is about 300mb+ , but if I send a string to the load function the video memory goes to over 800mb.

 

It's not about assets.

About the game

 

Lone Water is a first person adventure horror game that tells a story about a Post-Apocalyptic FLOODED World.

 

You are a lone survivor in this world and must find clues to figure out why the world is flooded.

 

The game combines loneliness, sadness and dread with a very peaceful environment.

It's your job to determine whether humanity has finally destroyed itself.

 

 

 

 

The world was in a chaotic state, the human race was about to pay for the lack of care and preservation of what is most precious to the human life, Water.

 

The only solution was to use everything science could offer.

 

A mega scientific corporation had a solution to the problem, by using a complex chemical process they gradually managed to make water a reality for people again.

 

Unfortunately not everyone was happy and someone inside this big scientific corporation plans to cause a true ecological apocalypse.

 

Unfortunately, it's too late.

 

The world is all flooded and it is our fault.

 

Only memories of the past were left to tell the true events that followed.

 

Controls

 

Movement: WASD + Mouse

Jump: Spacebar

E: Interaction

Shift: Run

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thanks Josh for looking at the "Cannot blit backbuffer" bug and thehankinator for the UI Library I'm using.

 

Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

[memory leak when sending a string to the load function]

Hello guys,

 

I am working on a loading screen, and when I pass a string to the load function call my loading screen the video memory jumps to 300mb+ to 800mb+

 

Here my code:

 

-- world creation here

function LoadingScreen()
context:SetBlendMode(Blend.Alpha)
local loadingFont = Font:Load("Fonts/arial.ttf",42)
context:SetFont(loadingFont)
local loadingText = "L O A D I N G . . ."
local x = (window:GetWidth() / 2) - (loadingFont:GetTextWidth(loadingText) / 2)
local y = (window:GetHeight() / 2) - (loadingFont:GetHeight() / 2)
-- Fill screen with black
context:SetColor(0, 0, 0)
context:DrawRect(0, 0, window:GetWidth(), window:GetHeight())
-- Draw "Loading" text
context:SetColor(1, 1, 1)
context:DrawText(loadingText, x, y)

context:Sync(false)
end

LoadingScreen()

-- map loading here

-- inside the main loop
if Map:Load("Maps/"..changemapname..".map", "LoadingScreen")==false then return end
-- inside the main loop

 

I did something wrong?

[[Beta 4.2 Pro] Cannot blit backbuffer]

Hello,

 

I already reported this issue via PM but I'll put here too.

 

Using the beta LE 4.2 when I compile a new .exe I get "Cannot blit backbuffer" on a map with water.

 

@Josh, If you wanna reproduce this, use the same project I sent to you.

 

Thanks.

[Dark theme]

Thank you for the dark theme and +1 for the suggestion

[Trouble when applying alpha on context:SetColor()]

This fixed, thanks

[Trouble when applying alpha on context:SetColor()]

Hello friends,

 

I have a crosshair script that works well, I just followed the example in the FPSPlayer.lua

 

function Script:Start()
self.crosshairImg = Texture:Load("Materials/HUD/dot_1.tex")
end
function Script:PostRender(context)
if self.crosshairImg then
 local crossHairX = math.floor((context:GetWidth() - self.crosshairImg:GetWidth()))/2
 local crossHairY = math.floor((context:GetHeight() - self.crosshairImg:GetHeight()))/2
 context:SetBlendMode(Blend.Alpha)
 context:DrawImage(self.crosshairImg, crossHairX, crossHairY)
end
end

 

But when I try to fade in/out a text on another script with:

 

context:SetColor(0,0,0,Math:Lerp(0, 1, self.alpha/self.fadeTime))

 

The texture in the crosshair gets the same color of my text and also fades

 

What I'm doing wrong?

[BUG NVIDIA Refraction ?]

No problem, I'll use other kind of material.

[BUG NVIDIA Refraction ?]

Hello, I am using the new refractions in my game, everything works fine on my AMD GPU (R9 390)

 

 

But when I try to run the same scene on a PC with a NVIDIA 750 Ti, this happens:

 

 

 

What gives?

[Trigger zone material like Source]

Uhh, so it's a good idea hide my invisible triggers before building the GI?

This can cause performance issues later?

[Texture Load]

It's already supported, unofficially. Texture::SetLoadingMode(mode)

 

0: default

1: deferred

2: managed (will actually delete textures out of memory when not used for a while, not sure if this is a good idea)

 

This is related to this?

http://www.leadwerks.com/werkspace/topic/9840-deferred-texture-loading/page__hl__managed

 

I'll try to use this more often
