Game Preview Runs Slowly While Using 3D Shape Objects

  • First, I understand that 3D Shapes are still new to C3 and there's a lot to work out. This may just be one of those situations where the 3D object needs to be further optimized. I don't know...

    I have a small number of layers on a very, very basic demo I'm trying to put together. All layers have their Rendering Mode set to 2D except for the layer that has all the 3D objects which is, of course, set to 3D.

    There are only three objects - my character, the instances of the 3D object, and blocks with the Solid behavior (to serve as platforms under the 3D object).

    At first, things seemed to run fine. But when I started to add an extra layer I noticed that successive Preview plays resulted in very slow playback, I came up with a loss of how to resolve this problem.

    I've closed the Preview window, I've restarted C3, I've also restarted my computer. I've checked Task Manager and the Preview window was definitely causing the most CPU demand but it never got above 50% total.

    Can anyone help me figure this out, please?

    The stick figure is the main character and the arrow keys are using the basic Platformer behavior for movement.

  • What does your chrome://gpu/ say?

    If you don't have WebGl accelerated then go to chrome://flags/ and try to see if its set to override.

    Constant 60 fps here. There is a bit of z stuttering though, but I was seeing that anyways.

  • I opened up chrome://flags and enabled WebGL Draft Extensions as well as Choose ANGLE Graphics Backend...thinking these two things most related to the issue I'm having. The preview is still running close.

    The following is what chrome://GPU says...

    Graphics Feature Status

    Canvas: Software only, hardware acceleration unavailable

    Compositing: Software only. Hardware acceleration disabled

    Gpu compositing has been disabled, either via blocklist, about:flags or the command line. The browser will fall back to software compositing and hardware acceleration will be unavailable.

  • That's everything... I didn't know what would or wouldn't be relevant.

  • If it restarted Chrome, and you have it set to override, and it says webgl is software only then it means you can't do it on the current hardware.

    Again make sure you have "Override software rendering list" Enabled in flags.

  • Aaaah. That's the thing that was missing. Thank you, Newt!
