[Framewerk]

I love the leadwerks framework.You can manage all you objects by calling some easy commands.A realy usefull plugin would be some functions to load shaders for own post processing effects

[Test 1 of my game]

Sure you have downloaded just the package from the first post?Because my first try was that when you don't make fullscreen it try to make a 1920*1080 window.I downloaded the package and everthing works fine with the window and fullscreen adjustments.

 

I don't know why but the LoadScene command in the C++ Leadwerks API loads the scene very slowly (my scene is loaded in the editor or in lua in 3-4 secs. and in C++ in about 10 secs).Maybe somebody can tell me why.

 

 

Maybe this exe helps

test.exe

....i forgot .I will upload the new package with the right files at my first post

[Material Bloom ?]

YES

[Test 1 of my game]

Ok this is strange.I made a few variables for width,height,fullscreen for settings in the console at the start.When I don't use fullscreen I become the same error like you said ( GLSL 1.2 isn't supported....)

 

Ok I found the error.In some cases the Graphics() function was callen twice.

 

Replace it with this exe

test.exe

[Test 1 of my game]

Ok I try it but I can't upload the file because my single file upload size is 52.9 MB and that is to less.

[Test 1 of my game]

Here is my Initialize code (I called Graphics )

if(!Initialize(0))
  ErrOut("Can't Initialize Engine!");
 if(Fullscreen)
  Graphics(Width,Height,32);
 else
  Graphics(Width,Height);
 ConsoleAdd("Initialize Engine : OK");
 engine_fw = CreateFramework();
 ConsoleAdd("Initialize Framework : OK");
 engine_fw_layer = GetFrameworkLayer(0);
 ConsoleAdd("Loaded Framework Layer : OK");
 engine_fw_world = GetLayerWorld(engine_fw_layer);
 ConsoleAdd("Loaded Framework World : OK");

 SetGlobalObject( "fw", engine_fw );

 // Set Lua framework variable
 BP lua = GetLuaState();
 lua_pushobject( lua, engine_fw );
 lua_setglobal( lua, "fw" );
 lua_pop( lua, 1 );
 ConsoleAdd("Created Lua Framework Object : OK");

OMG buy a ATI graphicscard joke

I going to check the error.I can't understand why it doesn't run on a Nvidia card.I going to upload some new material files and the oroginal shader.pak.

Can somebody send me his/her nvidia card ?

[Ressource Manager]

Ok when I can load the models .. only in the mainthread ,it isn't very usefull ,because I wanted to load the ressources while the introscreen or the menu in a other thread.

[Ressource Manager]

Hey I have an idea for a Resource Manager who loads the whole gameressources like models/textures... in a second thread.

It is right that when I load a model and load it a second time the engine doesn't load the model again but create a instance of the model.

So I load all ressources in a thread and now I need to hide all models/meshes.Can I use FreeEntity() for it ,or does this command ensures that the engine doesn't create instances of the model ?

[OpenGL and Assembler ?]

Hihi I agree your post.Just afraid about my FPS of a scene with some vegtation models......

[PFWGui - Source Code Now Available]

Try to use this DLL of FTGL : ftgl.dll

Have you add PFWGui.lib and opengl32.lib to the linkerlibryry?

[OpenGL and Assembler ?]

Ok the "100 times faster" was unreasonably but it think it is usefull to use ASM for stuff like vertex/matrix/vector calculation.Some functions in CPU "extras" like 3DNow! use that too.

[OpenGL and Assembler ?]

I had an idea a few minutes ago.When you are programming in C++ it is (I heard) 100 times slower than in the same in assembler.

 

So does it make sense to make a 3D engin in assembler (not all) ?

Imagine your application could render not 1 mio triangles at 60 FPS but with 600 or 6000 FPS ??!!

[Vegetation render time]

Yes sry I see that the font at the left side isn't readable.I think the problem ist the vegetation renderer because when I have 10 HD tires in my empty scene ,it render's about 1mio polys with 110 FPS with all effects (no DOF and vsync)

[Vegetation render time]

So I tested some scenes with some vegetationtypes and here is my result:

Palm from LE 2.2 (the best result)

FPS : 60

Poly : ~1.2 mio

Shadowpoly: ~2 mio

 

Spruce :

(camera a the bottom of the trees like when you walk through the scene)

FPS: 46 FPS

~1.3 mio Polys

shadowpolys : ~1.5 mio

(camera above the trees like when you fly over)

FPS: 55

Polys: ~1.2 mio

shadowposly: ~1.4 mio

 

Grass (the standartgrass)

FPS : 43 FPS

polys: ~1.0 mio

shadowpolys: ~1.4 mio

 

All vegetation renderings are with the viewdistance of 100 and the LOD of 50

 

I saw that the Batch rendertime is higher when I render the grass.What is that?

[Vegetation render time]

Here :

Vegetation: Birch trees only (view :100 LOD : 50).When I render the trees only ,I have ~58 FPS.

Grass (view : 100 LOD : 4) slow down the system

[Vegetation render time]

I have a 1920*1080 Screen with LE Editor in maxwindow

~1700*900

[Vegetation render time]

Hey I'am making a new Scene and have donwloaded the free Birch and grass models from Pure3D.When I disable all effects(shadows too) I have 80 FPS at 190k polys.I think this is a very low value.When I enable all effects I have 48-50 FPS .

 

What is wrong ?

[ObjectTable in C++ ?]

I haven't programmed in lua yet but I think you can make that with the SetGlobalObject command and set the ObjectTable as a Object and get it in C++

[Test 1 of my game]

The problem is that the FPS collaps when I have a lots of grass.I set the LOD to 4 and used billboards but it isn't realy better yet.

[Test 1 of my game]

Like I said I will buy some vegetation models in Pure3D and made the scene more detailed.I haven't spend so much time for the scene and the models

[Test 1 of my game]

I make it but first I have to buy something in the pure3D shop.Does anybody know how to choose the pay methode?When I'm at the shopping cart there stand that I have to choose a carrier....

 

 

Here : 1280x720.exe

1920x1080.exe

Have somebody an idea for a name?

[stereography rendering ?]

Just relax your eyes , move your head to the screen and move it slowly back.Don't look at a point ,no focus just relaxe.At a distace you will see a 3D picture.
