  • Ok then, sorry for underestimating C2 power :D

  • I have free version of C2, so i don't have that feature. But with families, can you for example click any unit in the family and then destroy that object?

  • Once i tried making WarCraft 3 maps with Map Maker (later MM), very similar to Construct 2 (later C2).

    In MM the event sheet is separated in 3 parts:

    1. Event or trigger - this must happen to continue, for ex. unit enter region1; unit1 is attached

    2. Condition - here are AND and OR logic conditions, for ex. unit is owned by Blue Player; Damage done > 10

    3. Action - if it is triggered and all/or some conditions are met, this will happen, for ex. destroy triggering unit; subtract (damage done) from owner of the attached unit.

    I want to concentrate on the "Action" part. With this detection of ANY triggering unit i can do something to it. By comparison, now in construct two i have to make as many events as there are units and in all of them to perform the same actions.

    I have searched for this feature with search engine on Scirra, but nothing came up. I don't have paid version so maybe on the paid there is this feature. If not, i like to hear your thoughts about this, and maybe have this feature in upcoming releases.

  • I just checked the gpu drivers on all computer, on my old i have Radeon 9200 with drivers from 2006, and when i run the test the render is construct2d. On the other computer at school it is installed from the CD that the GPU came, and i think it is from 2007, also not supporting webgl, and using construct2d.

    So the conclusion is there is nothing wrong on the Construct 2 end, the main problem is the GPU drivers, and maybe html5 software optimization, i say this because at least my html5 game is not that demanding so shouldn't be that much problem with only the CPU rendering.

    btw i uninstalled my GPU drivers and with Athlon 7750 3GHz i got maximum 20 fps.

  • Realty nice visuals, very colorful. But eventually, my mouse will break in peaces with all that clicking. Make shooting possible with just holding the mouse, maybe slower when it is pressed so if you want the full effect you have to click fast.

    score: 600, after this it become boring and i lost the desire to live so i committed suicide.

    For now, it is no more then 2/5 stars, but when you add the levels and the story mode i hope it will be more stars.

  • Try Construct 3

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

  • There is a tool floating around here that Ashley made to check if your video card has up to date graphics drivers (sorry I dont have the link at hand).

    Your game doesnt look very demanding, so im inclined to think its a driver issue, especially if they are older computers. (Still thats just a guess).

    Doesn't HTML5 use mostly the CPU for rendering? I forgot to mention that the two computers with 3GHz CPUs are at school, one of them is running XP the drivers from the CD, and the other one (the one with 7 stations) is running edubuntu, i don't know if even GPU drivers there have been installed.

    Tomorrow I am going to uninstall the gpu driver from my computer to check if the drivers cause this problem on other not that slower computers.

  • I just started making game with Construct 2, it ran great (constant 60FPS) on my computer (Athlon 7750 3GHz [dual core], mid end gpu), but then i tried it runing at my old computer (Celeron 2GHz [singe core], extincted gpu) but the FPS was ridiculously low, 2-4FPS. I updated the web browser, tried Firefox but the same result. To note, on this computer i can play most of the flash games that are far more complex. Ok, i gave up on my old one, so i tried it on another one (Celeron 3GHz [singe core],low end gpu), not playable at all, some of the events are not triggered since all the conditions are not met (like On Collision), hardly any 10FPS. The next computer (Celeron 3GHz [single core], low end gpu) that i have tested it had NComputing Desktop Virtualization (split one PC to more user stations, this one had 7 in total). Running flash game on all of them is not possible, but on one station is very playable. But when i tried any html5 game, same result as my old computer, 2-4FPS.

    I give it to some friends, the ones with faster computers, didn't report any problems and smooth gameplay, but the ones with little less powerful reported same problems that i had.

    *All of the above computers had up to date browser, and all run at least playable flash.

    I read "Construct 2 vs GameMaker vs GameSalad vs Stencyl", and i think that i am missing something. That much performance difference and i can't play simple HTML5 game? I tried other html5 games from scirra arcade, but same thing, very low FPS.

    Here is my game, in the top right corner you will see the FPS.

    *this game is still in development, and the things you will see will not please your eyes.

  • Newest version, no matter if it is beta or stable release.

  • Hello to everyone. My name is Antonio from Macedonia and i am 18 years old. I have some more-less basic knowledge about Pascal/Delphi. Last year i tried out to make map for Warcraft 3 with Map Maker (very similar to C2), almost finished all events but i stuck at unit design, so the map was never finished.

    Few days ago i found out about C2 from some banner at some game site. Installed it and finished the basic Ghost Shooter tutorial. I have been reading tutorials so i think now i am almost set for my first project. I don't know that much, but i learn as i make the game... that is the way i always study something.

    For now i am sticking with the free edition, i have to wait a while to see if it is worth it for me to buy the license, since $79 is about the half of the average salary here.
