  • ...and it works! <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile">

    ...which must mean that java 8 has broken the minifier...<img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_sad.gif" alt=":(" title="Sad">

    Anyway, I couldn't EnricoUniverse's link to work. To download it you have to go to this url:

    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/ ... 21261.html

    Once there, search for "Java SE Runtime Environment 7u55". You have to click the radio button next to "Accept License Agreement" for the download to start. Then just install it, reboot C2, and the minifier will work again.

  • This is still not working...going to try what EnricoUniverse suggested. Fingers crossed...

  • I would like to have an option to create logic like this:

    ----Initialize:----

    3 objects with object.value > 10
9 objects with object value <10[/code:2hkjhyv4]

----Logic:----
[code:2hkjhyv4]Pick object where object.value > 10
----Set object.OverTen to TRUE
Else(Invert SOL) //This will select the other 9 objects
----Set object.OverTen to FALSE
[/code:2hkjhyv4]

As it stands, this would be done as follows:

----Logic:----
[code:2hkjhyv4]Pick object where object.value > 10
----Set object.OverTen to TRUE
Pick object where object.value !> 10
----Set object.OverTen to FALSE
[/code:2hkjhyv4]
In this case, two picking operations have to be run, which is wasteful, especially when sorting large numbers of objects.

  • that looks like its coming out very awesome, do you do your own artwork or do you have a team?

    Thanks Nope, no team, just me. I do my own graphics, though I think of myself as a designer/programer rather than an artist. When I finish Nebular Drift I'd like to colab with someone who can really do good art (more than just colorful shapes).

  • Colludium

    Yeah, thanks for posting the bug reports, they look great.

  • A bullet hell shooter with simple geometric/colorful graphics. Called "Nebular Drift":

    Some more ambitious stuff in very early stages, but I'd like to finish ND first.

    And yes, you can make pretty much any 2d game with C2.

    This chrominium bug report you linked to a few pages back describes this very behavior. Here:

    https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issu ... ?id=422000

    Canary indicates that google is working on this, but the results are inconsistent. At best, it matches or exceeds IE's performance. At times, it seems to regress back to the profile of the current stable. It'll be interesting to see what state it's in when v40 goes beta.

    Firefox is just an awful mess in general, but project silk indicates they are aware of this and are trying to correct it.

    Your cpu may be old, but it's powerful. If it was me I'd try stock clocks and see if the behavior changes. Your gpu is pretty good period...have you updated your graphics drivers lately? Do you notice halting when playing normal PC games?

    Wow, now those are some spec's <img src="{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_e_smile.gif" alt=":)" title="Smile"> But your results...that's very strange. I've never had canary perform worse than chrome stable. And IE has always been rock solid. How does firefox do? Generally, it seems to be the worst of the lot.

    Chrome/Firefox reminds me of this joke:

    "Did you hear about the statistician who had his head in an oven and his feet in a bucket of ice? When asked how he felt, he replied, "On the average I feel just fine."

  • Cool. Kind of slow, but the visual effect is great.

  • BTW, for anyone who runs Colludium's newest test: If you enter a custom time, you have to press 'Enter' to actually set it. Otherwise, it'll just run 30 seconds regardless.

  • eli0s

    What is your system like (cpu, gpu, os)?

    The only situation in which canary gives me the result you are getting (dt's at whole number intervals) is when I run it full screen (F11). Don't know why that would be.

  • Please can I ask everyone to reduce the sizes of their screen captures - it's hurting my brain....

    Ya, will do. Sorry 'bout that

    Canary updated today to Version 40.0.2209.0 canary (64-bit). Tried your new test windowed and got this:

    [attachment=0:2s9nsiu9][/attachment:2s9nsiu9]

    Seems like the new improvements work in window mode now.

    eli0s

    Give the new canary a try?

  • The weirdness continues. I just ran Colludium 's second test, but with Canary windowed this time, and got similar results to eli0s:

    [attachment=1:2wrdo31u][/attachment:2wrdo31u]

    The reason I tried it windowed? When I try to load the test with Canary maximized, it won't load (huh?). I have to make it windowed. However, after it loads I can maximize it and run the test, which gives me this:

    [attachment=0:2wrdo31u][/attachment:2wrdo31u]

    I guess Canary's new V-Sync improvments only work with the browser maximized for now...

  • eli0s

    EDIT: Did you run you tests with the browsers windowed? If so, try them Maximized/Full Screen.

    Just don't know what to make of that. What is your exact version of Canary (Toolbar -- About Google Chrome)?

    Colludium

    Could you post a version of your second test that only runs for 20 seconds? Or even lets the user specify run length?

    Two approachs. One with instance vars for the array, one with globals.
