[Progress bar on 0.9.5 Ultra Engine]

It doesn't work no matter how hard I try.

[Progress bar on 0.9.5 Ultra Engine]

Progress bar blinks when filling when changing the value from 0 to 1 in a loop.

 

function this:Update(window,input)
        while (PeekEvent()) do
            local ev = WaitEvent()
            if (ev.id == EVENT_WINDOWCLOSE and ev.source == window:Get()) then
                return("Exit")
            else
                me.ui:ProcessEvent(ev)
            end
        end
        if me.x < 1.0 then 
            me.x = me.x + 0.001

You can also just navigate to the Leadwerks folder inside the Steam install path, and in a folder "DLC" you will find a zip for each DLC you have. You can just extract the contents of the zip to your project to use it.

Thank You.

Thanks You.

Yes, it appears, but it doesn't let me install any, it says that I have the construction Kit, but it is not installed.

Powerfull.

[Ultra Engine noob feedback thread]

 

The tools to make games for a single inexperienced person are all over the place, click and drag. I understand Josh's business model, this implies performance and a clear focus is to give these tools to users who will have the potential in money to buy assets from third parties, or pay for a development team where the human has the talent. 

At this point, a technology is focused on the power of volatility, and this is how I perceive Ultra Engine. The rest will grow little by little.

100% Esto. Renuncié a leadWerks, llegué demasiado tarde con mucho contenido muerto y desaparecido...  Pero aprender desde una perspectiva de novato fue un desafío.  No hay plantillas reales, no queremos sostener la mano, pero ciertamente necesita algo para poner en marcha una capa básica que haga que las personas comiencen con primera persona, tercera o de arriba hacia abajo... y luego permite a los nuevos usuarios continuar con la creación de niveles, agregando modelos personalizados comprados, etc..   Tener algunas entidades pre-script para Ai, etc.  No sé.... Solo Leadwerks y leer hasta ahora Ultra así que no es nuevo fácil de usar.... no estoy seguro de cómo tiende a hacer crecer la base de fans si no es una bonita alfombra de bienvenida en la entrada.

 

As I understand it, Ultra Engine vs LE is based not so much on the idea of it being easy for novice users, it focuses more on people who know very well what they can and cannot do, taking advantage of the engine's potential and therefore overcoming its weaknesses.

 

 

[Ultra Engine noob feedback thread]

 

From the photos and videos I must note that the work that exists behind the creation of an engine is really incredible, I have never considered myself a programmer as such, an engine user that is something else, but I am very impressed by what you can do as a developer and how you put in our hands a simple solution for people like me, we can create a particle system, cast a shadow etc, if you really know what happens behind curtains and focus on the dream of creating a video game. 

It should be noted that when it is available on Steam and at an affordable price for my currency I will buy it with great pleasure. 

And surely like any tool, with time you will improve it, you will expand it, and therefore I wish you success with this new engine, which surely like Leadwerks for me will be a school of continuous and exciting learning.

It is the maximum.

[Memory leak?]

 

At this point I have implemented the GUI prototype, and it is stable although in the main loop it hides the panel.

 

#include "Leadwerks.h"
#include "CWindow.h"
#include "CInput.h"
#include "CWorld.h"
#include "CDraw.h"

using namespace Leadwerks;

int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
{
	CWindow window;
	CInput input;

	//Context* context = Context::Create(window.Get());
	CDraw draw(window.Get());


	
	CWorld world;
	Camera* cam = Camera::Create();
	
	
	GUI* gui = GUI::Create(draw.Get());
	Widget* base = gui->GetBase();

	Widget*  pnl = Widget::Panel(200, 100, 200, 200, base);

	

	while (!window.GetClosed())
	{
		if ( input.GetKeyUp(Key::Escape)) return false;

		pnl->Hide();
		
		Time::Update();
		world.Update();
		world.Render();
	
	

		draw.InfoDebug();
		draw.Update();

	}
	return 0;


}

 

[Memory leak?]

I am rebuilding the project with the help of ChatGPT, which tells me about a hung pointer, I have no idea what that is. But at the moment every avenze I have, I check the memory usage and it is stable

 

[Memory leak?]

 

This is really confusing, it must be my C++ programming that I am learning. But it is really strange that someone is doing well and someone is not. 

My theory is that it is exclusively when hiding a panel.  Now what I would have to do is to rebuild the whole project and evaluate what is happening. I don't see any other way.

AstrocucoX.rarI don't know what I'm doing wrong, see this is the example, when I press the escape key, everything goes up in ram memory usage in an uncontrolled way.

Yes he's focused on Ultra right now.  If you can work around it, that might be best for now.

--Create a window
window = Window:Create()
context = Context:Create(window)
world = World:Create()
local camera = Camera:Create()
camera:Move(0,0,-3)
local light = DirectionalLight:Create()

local gui = GUI:Create(context)
local base = gui:GetBase()

cam = Camera:Create()
while true do
        if window:Closed() or window:KeyHit(Key.Escape) then return false end

	Time:Pause()
	pnl:Hide()
        model:Turn(0,Time:GetSpeed(),0);

        Time:Update()

        world:Render()
		context:DrawStats(10, 10)
        context:Sync(false)
   collectgarbage()
end

This is a simple example, where the memory goes up. Lua Script.

No subscription system any more.  Hopefully released by the end of the year.  You can look at the store for pre-order prices.

I guess if it comes out on steam I'll have to wait for the summer sales in about two years to buy it. ;)

[Memory leak?]

I don't think Josh has time for this now, nor does he think he might be interested in it, the result is video I have in this thread, the memory goes up unchecked. The solution from my side is to create a GUI for each particular panel, menu, options etc.

I re-call this issue ages ago when my project was in Leadwerks.  I reckon it's a bug but you can try this in C++.  I can't remember if you can even call this function like this, but give it a go and see what happens.

System::CollectGarbage();

void CGUI::Update()
{
	
	pnlMenu->Show(); // Memory usage goes up uncontrollably.
	
	if (input.GetKeyHit(Key::Escape))
	{
		show = 1 - show;
		
	}


	if (show)
	{
		
		pnlMenu->Show();
		Time::Pause();
	
	}

	if(!show)
	{
		
		pnlMenu->Hide();
		Time::Resume();
	
	}




}

 

Nothing happens, the memory keeps going up. I have identified the one that causes the problem, it is when I try to display the panel that contains my three start menu buttons. 

Every time I show it the memory usage goes up, if I put inside the method it starts to go up uncontrolled. 

So how do I confirm that if it is a bug, by hiding the whole Gui I don't have that problem.

Gui->Hide(); No problem.

 

[Memory leak?]

At this point I don't know what to do, because it happens when I show the menu and pause the application.
