  • I confirm I have activated a support request with Kaspersky Italia.

    I'm currently using Kaspersky Security Cloud 20.0.14.1085(i) and I'm, affected by the problem.

    I confirm Kaspersky Endpoint Security (business version) is not affected by the problem.

    I'm waiting for Kaspersky reply and I let you know as soon as I have an update.

    In the meanwhile, as far as I see it is possible to mitigate the problem configuring Kaspersky antivirus to exclude "editor.construct.net" url into the network module and opening the site using Incognito window.

    Please note that the following procedure may reduce your computer protection and should be used in case of real necessity and at your own risk:

    1) Open Kaspersky.

    2) Click Settings. (into the left down corner)

    3) Click additional on the left.

    4) Click "Network" on the right pane.

    5) scroll down and click "Manage exclusions"

    6) click ADD and type editor.construct.net into the domain name field, click ADD

    7) close all Kaspersky windows.

    8) close any Chrome sessions.

    9) Open Chrome and a new incognito window.

    10) access editor.construct.net using the incognito window.

    Hope this help someone.

    Kaspersky has requested me antivirus trace log and information has been escalated to Moscow support team.

    EDITED on 20/03/2020 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Kaspersky support replied me confirming a BUG case has been opened and assigned to developers.

    In the meanwhile they propose 2 possible workaround:

    - Install and activate browsers extensions:

    Google Chorme: chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/kaspersky-protection/elhpdacimkjpccooodognopfhbdgnpbk

    FireFox Mozilla: addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/kaspersky-protection-2020

    OR

    - Disable inject script option.

    1) Open Kaspersky.

    2) Click Settings. (into the left down corner)

    3) Click additional or advanced into the left pane.

    4) Click "Network" on the right pane.

    5) disable "Inject script into web traffic to interact with web pages"

    6) close all Kaspersky windows.

    8) restart Chrome.

    I have already tried enabling Kaspersky Chrome extension and it seems is working.

    I have the feeling they have already changed something into the signature because this morning everything was already working.

    Be sure to remove my previous workaround and in case you have still problem try cleaning up cache browser.

    Kaspersky support will be back to me as soon as they have a reply from developer team.

    Kaspersky says a definitive solution to the problem will be available into the 2021 version of the antiviruses. They specifically says that the solution will be available from version 21.1.3.125 and newer.

    This mentioned version it is not yet available and they recommend to adopt the workaround above to solve the problem till the new version will be released.

    I'm still waiting from Kaspersky an answer on when the new version will be released and if current version (2020) will be patched somehow.

    Since I've seen that 13/03/2020 Kaspersky closed public beta testing of 2021 version I do expect the new release will be available soon.

    By the way, with the above workaround I didn't have problem using C3.

    EDITED on 27/03/2020 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Kaspersky replied to me but it didn't declare a releasing date for version 2021. It stated will inform me as soon as it has been released.

    It didn't comment about patching of current version.

    I'll be back in this post once Kaspersky will inform me about the releasing of this new version but I assume it will require a while.

    If you are interested to these updates I recommend you subscribe to this topic (click following button above this topic).

    Kaspersky has informed me version 2021 will be released on 07/07/2020 (english version). They declared me this version includes the solution to C3 loading bug.

    EDITED on 19/07/2020 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Kaspersky send me a preview release to test. It looks that the problem has been solved into this version. They also confirm it will be release to public next August 25th.

  • Unfortunately I've found another problem.

    D3D11 that apparently was working fine and solve my problems doesn't work properly when it should render particles effects while in runtime or preview particles into the editor.

    So, at the moment I have no choice than to select D3D9 that render everything but cause the layout editor aberration when resizing bars. (sigh...)

    Does anybody know what other Chrome parameters may I change to try to fix my problem?

    thanks

  • I did find a good solution to my problem.

    I have enabled hardware acceleration and I played a bit with the flags.

    The one to which I pointed my finger was this one:

    "Choose ANGLE graphics backend"

    Choose the graphics backend for ANGLE. D3D11 is used on most Windows computers by default. Using the OpenGL driver as the graphics backend may result in higher performance in some graphics-heavy applications, particularly on NVIDIA GPUs. It can increase battery and memory usage of video playback. – Windows

    This flag has the following options:

    - Default

    - OpenGL

    - D3D11

    - D3D9

    - D3D11on12

    I've tried all of them and here are the results:

    - Default --> has the problem --> game speed OK

    - OpenGL --> it is OK --> game speed slow

    - D3D11 --> it is OK --> game speed OK

    - D3D9 --> has the problem --> game speed OK (this is probably used as default)

    - D3D11on12 --> it is OK --> game speed slow

    It seems the right configuration form my PC is D3D11.

    I don't know if this might tell you something but at the end solved my issue.

    Thanks for your help

  • it looks like but I don't have the same problem using Firefox. Does it might exclude a driver problem in this case?

    Is there something into the Chrome flags with which I might play to try to disable something more specifically instead of disable the whole hardware acceleration?

  • Ashley I do agreed with you, but as promised I did back with an update and a workaround.

    Just to recap my troubleshooting I would inform you that I tried to go back with at least 3 different video driver releases with no results.

    Any other configuration setup was not giving me a solution.

    What actually solved was to disable Chrome hardware acceleration.

    This solved the problem but the question now is what kind of bottleneck is now been introduced? since we are talking about a 12 year old hardware probably none, but I do not exactly know what the hardware acceleration may actually improve into a so old hardware.

    I'd appreciate your opinion on this or what else you may suggest I may check into the chrome://flags that might tune this strange behavior.

    thanks a lot for your time.

  • DiegoM, it is an old HP EliteBook 8440p with Window 7 with an intel HD graphic.

    Checking with the intel automatic update says I'm using the updated driver.

    I'll see if there is something else but considering it is on the road since years I do not expect to find something new. I will back to you again for an update.

    Please let me know in case you want me test or configure something else.

  • I don't know if it is a bug or not but before submitting a bug request I would like to have your opinion.

    When I enlarge the "properties" bar the content of the layout unexpectedly change the proportion.

    Just to make you an example. This is the default configuration:

    Now I resized the Properties bar, look at the objects of the layout:

    I enlarge as much as I can the bar:

    The same happen if I add the "Find results" bar at the bottom of the window, look at deformation of the objects and the shifting of the placeholders into the layout:

    Resetting the configuration doesn't solve.

    I have also tried to open Chrome with extensions disabled but nothing to do...

    Firefox seams not affected by the problem.

    It doesn't matter which C3 version I use.

    Any idea on what can be the cause of this?

    thanks

    Let me quote again the petition so everyone want give some help need just to click here:

    Please help C3 and C2 community to ask Nintendo to support Construct:

    Just click and follow the instructions.

    thanks

    Ashley, what if you create a sort of petition that might be signed by developers? you'll might get the load you need.

    I'm not sure it is the right place to start from but what about Avaaz?

  • I have taken a tour to look for an online multi platform app icon generator tool. There are plenty of these online tools and what I've understood is that there are no clear or maybe not up to date information on the argument.

    I have focused myself on Android+apple+microsoft platforms and what I've seen is that they are all proposing a bunch of different sizes. Some of them try to document each size others point to be minimalist and simply export the files with not so much info.

    Unfortunately just few of them may generate icons with square or round custom background.

    I think the best high quality option is to pick the best for each platform, generate the icons for each different platform, aggregate them into a folder and rename all icons respecting C3 naming convention and if your project don't blow up due to icons indigestion should cover the most of the scenarios.

    But if there is someone has found a real multi platform icon generator tool or found another multi platform proof solution is very welcome to share the link here!.

    thanks

  • I do really appreciate your clarification.

    Do you suggest or recommend additional sizes they are not included into the default C3 configuration?

    What about add all the sizes the online tools usually generate?

    thanks a gain.
