  • Main post updated. If you're already on r190, just download the correct node-webkit files by themselves, rather than re-installing r184 to get them. See main post for full details.

    I feel ya I've had the same kind of baffling issues with other programs...it's incredibly frustrating, especially when you hit a brick wall and there's no one else having the same problem. Seems to occur with laptops more than desktops.

    OT, do you run an SSD in your laptop? I switched my OS over from HDD about a year ago, the difference was/still is mind-boggling. Back during the HDD days C2 could be mighty slow sometimes...

    Strange...my current project is up to ~850 events, but I haven't had any stability issues. In fact, I don't think I can ever remember C2 crashing or hanging on me (unlike CC). Did this just start with r190?

    The only difference I can think of is I'm on Win 7. Also, I tend to stop/start a lot, so I'll make a handful of changes, test, save, close the editor, and bring it back up. I don't tend to use 'undo' a lot either, unless I have to.

    I don't have steam, so I can't give specific feedback there. It does seem like, out of the few people who've had issues with the C2 editor, many have been using the steam edition. I think some of the blame comes down on steam itself; their services are great, but I've never been fond of their software.

    Glad it's working for you. However, it should work after minification. I had an issue with this before, but I thought I'd fixed it.

    Here's a slightly more recent version of mouse lock. I've exported w/ minification using this version before, it seems to work.

    Sorry, but I cannot reproduce on my end.

    What version of C2 are you running? What version of windows? Is this error only on export? Have you tried exporting without minification?

  • My understanding is running javascript directly is very risky, especially if you are handling any user input. See here:

    Posted a guide here on how to restore the older, non-jerky node-webkit to r190 stable. It came out a little wordy...but basically, just replace the new node files with the ones from r184.

  • Back on topic, a quick update:

    You can get the old node-webkit (0.10.5) at this address:

    https://github.com/rogerwang/node-webki ... d-versions

    The only drawback is that the "dxwebsetup.exe" file is not included. This isn't actually a part of node-webkit, but it's an installer that's packaged with node exports from C2, and C2 places it in the same folder. If it isn't installed, the export may run in canvas2D mode.

    However, this file is already in the new "NodeWebkitForC2" folder, and it has the same hash values as the file from r184, so I must assume it's identical.

    There is also one extra file in the webkit download from github: "nwsnapshot.exe". This doesn't need to be copied over.

    tl;dr: If you've already installed r190, just download the windows 0.10.5 version of node, and replace the files in 'C:\Program Files\NodeWebkitForC2\win32' with the ones from 0.10.5, making sure to leave "dxwebsetup.exe" in the folder.

    If you're still on r184, it's easier to go about it the way outlined in my original post.

    I'll update the main post when I can.

  • Danwood

    You sure it's the same? If so, I'd be glad to lop off the 'install r184, grab nw files out of it' steps. I'll check it out tonight.

  • Probably dead space in one of the images. Or maybe not.

    Capx?

  • My 'days visited' looks fine.

    I really don't think this would be stored in cookies...it would be way too easy to hack.

    The badge system has always been a bit wonky...I just noticed I'm missing a couple of notch badges (can't believe it's been 3 years since I joined ).

  • Thanks for sharing warville

    I love Inkscape. It's my go-to for vector work. It suffers from the same 'fugly-factor' that besets a lot of open source software, but the guts of it work great. Development is really ramping up right now too: Inkscape 0.91, the first new release in years, is almost upon us.

  • It's new! It must be better!

    ...Right?

  • I think you can do something like this with one of the following third-party plugins by R0J0hound:

    Canvas:

    Paster:

    I haven't used these plugins myself, so I don't know exactly how to go about it.

  • => I don't know, some of the projects couldn't open due to the version, others did...

    Huh? That doesn't make sense...all of the included templates should work. What version of C2 are you running?

    I define this big freeze like that:

    1- The game opens immediatly

    2- The smooth of the screen suggest it's at least 60fps, absolutly no lag

    3-When I press a button the object move immediatly, no latency

    4-Suddently with no "previous lag frame", the game freeze, the image doesn't move at all.

    5- My cpu infos are not frozen (cpu 25% , ram 40% , core to regular temperature) The computer and other stuff work as usual

    6-After 3 or 4 seconds (randomly) the game unfreeze and return immediatly to 60fps (extremly smooth)

    This sounds different from the recent problems people have had with node. IIRC, there were some similar issues months and months ago, but those were on mac and have been fixed for ages.
