yeah i dunno whats up, maybe my host just doesnt like .cap's. just right click save as like i edited. should be fine.

all it is, is an sprite with platform behavior. no events, no objects, no nothing. when vsynced or at a capped low framerate it falls fine off the bottom of the screen. but unlimited or above 60fps the active spazzes up and down until its gone.

heres cap though. http://legendkpr.startlogic.com/files/fpswierd.cap

whoah crazy gibberish. right click save as.

so i was fiddling around again with construct and started a simple platformer. used platform behavior.

all is well so far.

then i changed the framerate to unlimited.

all hell breaks loose. my main active for the character just starts spazzing out and flying up and down rapidly.

when i change it to anything above fixed 60, same deal.

whats going on?

didnt want to take the time to read all the lengthy posts. but what about something as simple as a "raycasting object" ? which is 2d rendering. it wouldnt be 3d models, but if someone wanted to make a first person shooter, they would be able to do so. raycasting is generally a simple procedure and im sure id wouldnt be a difficult concept for you to understand ashley. it could work something like using objects as textures, objects as sprites, and a simple gridbased mapfile for rendering. i think it would be a great addition imo.

i wouldnt reccomend using solely x for distance. i would get used to using

(x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2 = distance^2

distance = sqrt((x2 - x1)^2 + (y2 - y1)^2)

even if you didnt know about abs(), you coulda done some simple math to figure it out.

if you take a number and raise it to the power of 2, if its negative it becomes positive (negative * negative = positive). then all you have to do is take the radical (square root) of that and you end up with your original number, but positive.

#1 rule of business. nobody reads.

i already told you about the framerate issues i had when you posted the first one on tdc.

there isnt much of a change in framerate between any of them for me. runs at about 15fps when theres ghosts on screen. and about 30fps when i go off to the side in the black areas and just stand there for all three

i have a big problem with the new forum.

the forum tree is at the bottom of the page. and its a pain to navigate having to scroll all the way down to get to it.

other than that its the shit.

the next time you wanna sell. just wait a day lol.

bumpmapping bug.

in the event editor when i go to the "bumpmapping" tab on an object with bumpmapping enabled in effects, construct crashes. almost 50%+ of the time.

i dont know if this was already a bug or not but.

the 3d box wont show the different face textures. i had all the seperate faces a different color in the layout editor but it only showed the same color on all faces in runtime.

the seemingly naked chick seems out of place. also it looks horribly photoshopped in. but the title screen is the sh*t!
