  • Hey guys :)

    Thank you for your comments :) Please excuse me if I make some "english mistakes" it's not my first language. I will try to do my best.

    So, Sully you are right, we can improve it. I will share the capx on the afternoon (France Time lol), and I will update the topic with some explainations.

    But you will see that it's not difficult, there is a very simple code. The aim is to create a fake z coordinate with some mathematic calculation :) On the other side, there are always 250 stars (sprites) on the screen so for example on my Eeepc that's not smooth (because I have a small graphic card and no webgl :( ).

    Thank you and I'm happy if you enjoy it. I posted my sample in the Scirra Arcade and it was been approved so I updated the link at the top of this topic with the Scirra Arcade link.

    Ouf...I hope you will understand all I wrote here lol ^^

  • Hey guys :)

    I just finished to translate my Pseudo 3D Starfield code sample in Construct 2. This is a code I made on other language and software, and I wanted to translate it for Construct 2 :)

    You can see the result here : Pseudo 3D Starfield

    I will share the capx soon :) This just a sample, and I will give you the Construct 2 file, so you will be able to play with if you want to :)

    Thanks :)

    Updated : you can now download the capx on the Arcade Scirra WebSite :)or here : Download the capx

  • Very cool :) Thank's !

    That would be cool to be able to retrieve purshase link on our website account that's true ;)

  • Strange...That seems ok with you.

    Ashley and I have some glitches on Opera...

    I don't know. All other browsers work fine so...

  • The problem is the GM version works perfectly here on Opera and on my Eeepc, but not the C2 version (the monkey version is slow too...) That's why I think it's Opera.

    I use 11.9 drivers and an ATI HD 5X series.

  • Hi all :)

    Sorry for the double post but I have some news.

    It seems that with monkey we have the same problem with Opera.

    Look the same example coded with Monkey : View the Monkey Ball sample here

    With Opera of course.

    The two other version are always available if you want to compare quickly :

    The Game Maker HTML 5 Ball sample here

    The Construct 2 HTML 5 Ball sample here

    I think Opera is a random browser for html 5....

  • Hello, I don't have any plugins in Opera (not custom plugins, the list is empty).

    Try to see settings but nothing particular. Ashley have seen what I mean so I don't understand why you have not this problem. I start thinking that Opera is a "lottery browser" lol

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads

  • The latest version is this one : http://www.java.com/en/download/index.jsp

    And it doesn't change anything here. And on opera website that's the java install they point to from their site.

    I finish with my monkey code and post it here to compare.

    javascript is different to java)

    That's right, I don't think about this.

  • I have opera 11.51 too and Seven 64 bits. I don't know if the java version affect this but why it would affect with C2 and not with other ? very strange.

    May be Ashley could tell us if the java version could affect this ? wich version of Java do you use BrokenInfinity ?

    I've just tested with the build 27 of Java but I see no difference.

  • If you find something that's cool. I don't know why opera has pb with C2 it's strange.

    I would prefer that Opera is a problem for all HTML 5 canvas type (like GM or Monkey).

    I have a small idea. I've played with Opera and Construct 2 and GM HTML 5 but I didn't try with Monkey to compile something in HTML 5 and test it in Opera.

    I'm going to write the same thing with Monkey, and I am going to transcode it in HTML 5 and test it in Opera. I will post the result here, with the link to the app.

    It's simple if we have the same problem, it could be it simply....Opera that works with what he wants to lol but if not, there is something somewhere between C2 and Opera.

    Let's have a try to compare and see what happens :)

    Just want to help, because I believe on C2 ;) C Classic is fine and I think C2 has a great potential, mainly if later we can make .exe too (I know I read the FAQ ;) ). And if it works on all browser it's even better :)

    PS : once again, sorry for my approximative english and mistakes, it's not easy for me ;)

    Happy Construct !

  • Yes, that's what I say up earlier. I made a reflexion on the GM HTML 5 forum because it's not an evidence to have something smooth with GM HTML 5 in general, as the same as they told me otherwise. I told them that C2 runs games very smooth on browser like FF or Google chrome, it 's not the same with GM HTML 5. It's not bad but...could be better.

    I made this reflexion because I use both of them. But in the GM HTML 5 forum I just had answer like "your pc is outdated" or "it's not true"...

    But, we have to confess that the C2 version has heavy slowdown on Opera.

    pera have about a 2% market share so I'm tempted to leave it - the big three (IE, Firefox and Chrome) seem to run it just fine...

    Ho please :) Could you try to see what happens ? you are right but I know that some people use Opera, it will be cool that C2 runs smoothly on all browser and a "plus" for C2 I think.

    But I am happy that you have confirmed it.

    When I tested C2, that works just fine but when I saw the result in Opera I said myself "oh no...." ^^ GM works just fine but we don't have something smooth like C2 except on Opera browser in fact.

    And...congratulation for your beta, I think C2 is promising :)

    Happy C2 !

  • Hello all :)

    Here's my two examples. This sample is the same on GM HTML 5 and Construct 2 with the same calculation (for moves). We can compare.

    This is a moving ball test with 20 sprites at the same times. Each balls have his own speed.

    Launch each sample with Opera (and only Opera because it's this browser that cause pb for me) and let it run a minute and look at the ball.

    You should see that with the C2 version, ball (and espacially ball with small speed, with them, we can look at it better), movements are very loud, with some glitches, or I don't know how to say that, but with the GM HTML 5 version, and Opera, the movement is more "smooth".

    But as you can see (and test it) if you launch the C2 sample with other browsers like Firefox 7 or Google Chrome or IE that's perfect !

    Now here's the samples (open it first with Opera) :

    The Construct 2 version : Click here to see the C2 TestBall version

    The Game Maker HTML 5 version : Click here to see the GM HTML 5 TestBall version

    Thank you for help :)

  • I don't know I try to understand why espacially on Opera it's very very loud.

    To answer I didn't use any effect. Neon bricks are just sprite I made before.

    For the GM HTML 5 demo, it's a good test because this program display 250 sprites at the same time and forever :)

    How I did mention on the GM html 5 forum, C2 is better and more smooth than him in general (I find it at the same as they says the invert), but espacially on Opera I can get it to be smooth like other browser.

    Ashley, you did see it, other browsers are fine but with Opera it's very loud.

    I'm going to try to make the same thing in GM HTML 5 and C2 to compare and I will post the result here.

  • ok I could try to upload something : but the two projects are not the same, I don't have the same on the two sides.

    But here's an example :

    EDIT : for samples, please see more posts under this one

    that just concern opera, with other browser it's ok.

    The pb is that it runs correctly on Opera but we can see the ball is very slow in his movement, very louuuud, but if you try on FF or Google Chrome that's ok ! (for me)

  • Hi everybody,

    I am a new french earlier adopter of Construct 2. I would like first to apologize if my english is not very good (may be you will see some mistakes), and present me quickly.

    I am Crystal Noir, 34 years old, and I follow Construct since his start. I use a lot of products to make what I like : games and multimedia programs :)

    I am a user of C2, GM HTML 5, Monkey and AGK. I love test programs and languages so...

    Now I would like to talk with you about a problem I have with Construct 2 and Opera, that I don't have with others html 5 like software (like GM HTML 5 or Monkey).

    When I test a game made with Construct 2, in preview or "compiled game" with Opera, it runs very sloooow and has glitches. Don't have this problem with FF or chrome ou IE.

    I ask a friend to test too, and he has the same things.

    When I test a html 5 games made with GM HTML 5, I don't have this problem with Opera.

    We all know that html 5 games won't be windows game (smooth etc..with sync) but, performances are bad when I run a game made with C2 on Opera.

    Is there an issue or something about this between Opera and C2 ?

    In general, Opera run html 5 correctly at the same as it's not the best to play with but here, it's very bad.

    Thank's for help :)

    Happy C2 !
