Hi,

I am exciting with new Ultra Engine , many problem here that i want you share : Game run doesn't laugh very well; when creating camera view I don't know which angle is setting ? And Camera cannot be removed ? That all for the moment and so far I was compiling the source in VS 2022 work well with a blank window

I will do futher to test more the function from Ultra Engine ^^

Thank you Josh ! You have done a great starting the engine and let us hope to fix that step by step.

Ok later I modified the source from the base code but with a black window now :

#include "UltraEngine.h"
#include "ComponentSystem.h"

using namespace UltraEngine;

int main(int argc, const char* argv[])
{
    RegisterComponents();

    auto cl = ParseCommandLine(argc, argv);
    
    //Load FreeImage plugin (optional)
    auto fiplugin = LoadPlugin("Plugins/FITextureLoader");

    //Get the displays
    auto displays = GetDisplays();

    //Create a window
    auto window = CreateWindow("Ultra Engine", 0, 0, 1280, 720, displays[0], WINDOW_CENTER | WINDOW_TITLEBAR);

    //Create a framebuffer
    auto framebuffer = CreateFramebuffer(window);

    //Create a world
    auto world = CreateWorld();

    //Create a camera
    auto camera = CreateCamera(world);
    camera->SetClearColor(0.125);
    camera->SetFov(70);
    camera->Move(0, 0, -10);

    //Create a light
    auto light = CreatePointLight(world);
    light->SetPosition(0, 10, 0);
    light->SetColor(2);

    //Create ground
    auto ground = CreateBox(world, 20, 1, 20);
    ground->SetPosition(0, -0.5, 0);
    ground->SetColor(0, 1, 0);    

   /* //Load the map
    WString mapname = "Maps/my_cube.ultra";
    if (cl["map"].is_string()) mapname = std::string(cl["map"]);
    auto scene = LoadMap(world, mapname);*/

    //Main loop
    while (window->Closed() == false and window->KeyDown(KEY_ESCAPE) == false)
    {
        world->Update();
        world->Render(framebuffer);
    }
    return 0;
}

Testing again, strange it works to load it but I don't see my scene after compiling in VS 2022...

The problem is that your camera is pointing the wrong way / wrong position.

cam.zip

This suggestion can help your situation in the future when I add it:
