  • linkman2004, Have you had a look at this yet, by any chance? :')

  • purplemonkey, I haven't had any issues with this. If you could provide a CAPX, I'll take a look and see what's up.

    As I cannot post a CAPX of my actual project I have tried to reproduce the issue as best as possible.

    The root of the issue seems to be tied with "zoom to contain" and margins.

    Thank you for looking into this, it is much appreciated!

  • I would like to add that I love using this plugin. However I have come across a bit of an issue recently..

    My "COOP" camera becomes terribly finicky and does not work properly if either or both of player boxes are outside of the layout.

    Has anyone come across this issue and if so, how did you resolve it?

  • Hi ya,

    Please see provided attachment.

  • Hello everyone,

    It seems that Microsoft is planning a switch to universal apps for the Xbox One in November this year.

    You can find more information regarding the matter at http://www.theverge.com/2015/2/17/8050743/microsoft-xbox-one-apps-sdk-plans

    Here are some interesting titbits:

    [quote:1gcuy2pg]Microsoft will also publish an SDK preview in May alongside the retail to dev kit switch, and both will be available publicly for developers to start creating apps in the summer timeframe. Microsoft currently restricts Xbox One app development to a small group of app developers, and this new program will open this up to everyone. Developers will also be able to use beta apps to test them with the community, and apps will finally be able to run in the background allowing third-party music apps to continue outputting music while a game is being played.

    [quote:1gcuy2pg]Existing Xbox One apps will continue to run on the console, but Microsoft is planning to switch over to universal apps in November. The switch means developers will be able to submit and publish apps in November, and they’ll need to be built on the new universal apps SDK. Windows 10 will arrive on the Xbox One later this year to support these new apps, and Microsoft is slowing moving its approval and store policies to a pace that will allow developers to submit apps to Xbox One in a similar way to the existing Windows Store. This will allow a lot more apps to arrive on the Xbox One this November.

    Ashley What does this mean for the Scirra community? Are you in any form of discussion with Microsoft regarding Construct 2 support for Xbox One at the moment?

    Yeah, I've poked around with it but I didn't really like the results at all.

    Which is why I thought maybe Squid was using a different technique (if there even is one).

  • My game has this toggleable, as well as resolution presets.

    Are you using "canvas size" & "layout scale" for this?

  • Ehem.. *cough*

    Anyone feeling up to the task of using what is already in the Construct Classic curves effect (https://www.scirra.com/forum/effect-curves_t61768) and implement this into a curves effect fit for Construct 2?

  • Hello everyone,

    I'm sorry to bump an old thread without a solution, however, I've recently also run into this very issue.

    Did anyone ever take a look at some of these shaders (such as warp or water)?

    It would be greatly appreciated if any shader veteran out there could ascertain exactly what part of these calculations affect scrolling/zooming as well as a solution to the issue.

    Thank you!

  • I would really love to see a gradient effect like the one used in Photoshop (including opacity).

    I have no idea how to implement this..

    [quote:2yqjo9pf]precision mediump float;

    uniform vec2 resolution;

    void main( void ) {

    vec4 top = vec4(1.0, 0.0, 1.0, 1.0);

    vec4 bottom = vec4(1.0, 1.0, 0.0, 1.0);

    gl_FragColor = vec4(mix(bottom, top, (gl_FragCoord.y / resolution.y)));

    }

  • Listen, I'm all for the everlasting increase in technology but working with hardware limitations is not always a bad thing either.

    In this case, as I said before, it could open up a new world of opportunities and I am having a bit of trouble understanding why this is a bad thing at all, despite the limitations..
