  • The Sprite Font plugin is the most valuable single plugin that I use, and I believe many other people use it also. However, with 133 it is completely broken.

    I believe the de-duplicating function is incorrectly assuming all instances of the sprite font can share the same texture and trashing the rest.

    Is there anyone capable of having a look to see what the actual problem is and if it can be fixed?

  • The problem is the author has dropped supporting sprite font. It wouldn't be a hassle if C2 had a Texture Font feature but it doesn't which is, not just a shame, but perplexing to say the least. Hence the reason people are worried that v133 has broken the plugin. My project which cost a significant amount of money and time to create depends on sprite font, however, it also requires v133 as Ashley has fixed the wrap issue. So if Ashley can fix the the cause then that would help us a great deal.

  • Kyatric the bug is not with the plugin it is with the changes introduced with 133.

  • I really hope that a fix can be made as sprite font is a very popular plugin.

  • Application Cache Checking event index.html:1

    Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'hasCurrentMatMV' of null c2runtime.js:1101

    Application Cache NoUpdate event index.html:1

    Uncaught TypeError: Cannot set property 'hasCurrentMatMV' of null c2runtime.js:1101

    It occurs in this function

    Function GLShaderProgram(gl, shaderProgram, name)

    and

    GLWrap_.prototype.setSize = function(w, h, force)

    CurrentMatMV is the error currently reported, is that variable in a standard C2 feature? Ashley

  • chrislechat if I understand correctly you want to do

    "sprite"&str(numpoint)&".X"

    I am assuming numpoint is a global. If it is an instance variable of sprite it would be

    "sprite"&str(sprite.numpoint)&".X"

  • Ashely I tried what you suggested. I took off minification however situation unchanged. I can replicate this on a number of computers that all have the same hardware Windows XP 32 bit with an aging video card. On other computers both Chrome and Firefox works perfectly.

    Any other ideas?

  • Completely agree. The sprite font plugin is ok but it has some definite issues. Doesn't display in design time making it difficult to do formating, instead you have to use trial and error. The align centre is poked, fine for even numbered strings but too far left for odd numbered strings. The wrap function often leaves a single letter on the previous line. However, it is the only option available for getting nice fonts with effects, e.g., stroke line and gradients spring to mind.

  • The new version 133 has broken the sprite font plugin. Maybe it is the de-duplication function. All sprite font instances now share the same texture.

    I will put up a screen example.

    Ashley This is a major blow for me as we use the sprite font plugin extensively.

    I am hoping you can fix as there is no suitable workaround for the lack of a sprite font feature.

    This is what it should look like.

  • I have a few computers where the website works correctly for Firefox but in in Chrome I get a black screen.

    I checked the error on Chrome and got this. I am hoping someone may tell me if there is something I can do to make it work in both browsers.

  • dben428 no joy?

  • The forum at ludei is very cumbersome and not very user friendly. I don't use twitter but I was really hoping for an update to Cocoonjs. Is there currently a good alternative to cocoon is I want to export to android and iOS? i.e., iphone/ipad/S3/nexus 7 type devices

    Any word on twitter bon4ire
