Wow did not expect updates for the Picture editor! That's great since it's still my main graphics editor, even though there's superior alternatives I'm just so used to it after having used it now for...

Obviously alpha-channels gives you control over each pixels transparency whereas blend coefficient applies to the object as a whole but,
say you have a simple object with just 1 frame that you...

I've used a variant of muddymoles method but instead of the array I had it set up so a first pass sets the tile using a direction and a second pass use animation frame for the inner corners. So my...

Objects that are lit and objects that arent, since they apparently would have to be on different layers. (objects on different layers can't collide, this is what I was trying to find a shader...

Thank you for taking the time to explain.
Though I don't really get your last points as I'm not really trying to emulate or replicate anything, I simply don't want overlapping lights to add up.
I...

Well I realise the more I try to learn about shaders the less I understand...

Anyway, it would be even better if I could have multiply_as work on an object covering the screen instead of layer....

Cool! I want to use dx11 though, so in the .hlsl file do I need to change both these registers

Texture2D<float4> Tex0 : register(t0);
sampler Tex0Sampler : register(s0);

to 1 ?

Ok this is how my layers are set up currently (1 is to the back and 4 is to the front):

1 - "game, most stuff is here" - shader: complex-software zoom
2 - "lighting" - shaders: multiply_as...

Any chance for more control for layer effects (exclude layer from frame effect) and/or effect stacking?

For example, I'm using a zoom shader which needs to be applied and set for each layer I want...

Right. Thanks for the clarifications, color models is a complex subject. Just to be clear I didn't mean to imply that anyone was doing things "wrong" (thats why I wrote "correct" with citations)...

Yeah sorry my test apps are a mess. I think my initial testing might have been done with C-S shader and then I have switched to muddymole's for the mockup, wrongfully assuming they were the same,...

Second this. The only thing I'm personally interested in is more DX11 updates. DX11 is imho easily the best feature fusion 2.5+ brought but it seems like it hasn't been getting the love it deserves....

Ugh...I'm getting very inconsistant results using various saturation filters. For example this is the difference between Complex-softwares saturation shader (left) and ShaderMask 2 (right)

1920x1080 and the amount of lights shown at the screen could easily surpass 100+ objects. My project is a type of colony sim/village builder game so I have little control of how many lights being...

Haha that goes for me as well!

Right. Yeah, the in between colors is not the desired effect.
I'm a bit confused, did you add the alpha channel toggle or was this just something you tested? Is there any difference in DX11 in the...

Yes, man you are fast!
Thank you!

I would like the effect to be blendable in this way:

As seen it can be achieved by adding a lighten (photoshop blend mode) shader on the mask object...

I would like a shader that works like Muddymole's Saturation Mask but I was wonder if it would also be possible to add a user set parameters like
Saturation = value (anything covered in mask would...

I think the reviewer is just implying that "since it won't run minimized, therefore by that logic, it forces itself on top" ?
Neat that you made Plantera. I actually bought and played it a few years...

True. Any steam API should be supported if possible.

While I can symphatize with CT being spread too thin, anything involving steam should be prioritized imo. It's de facto the place where virtually all pc games will be distributed and played.
That...

There's no rush on my part, if it gets fixed and included in the next update that's cool :)

The surface object seems to have a bug where these actions are swapped. Drawing an "simple" rectangle or ellipse prompts you to make an outline where "with outline" does not. It should be the other...

Oh I see. Well thanks for the info. I'll just use the surface object.

I want this simple effect, set pixel (x,y) to color (rgb).

Basicly the same function as Surface objects "set pixel" action (Surface : Set pixel at (X( "object" ),Y( "object" )) to GetRGB(255, 0,...

Thanks a million! I really need to brush up on my math...but now I can finally implement the zoom function in my project.
The corrected version should prove useful for anyone else who wants the...

Thanks it's fine for now I still have more testing to do before I know what I really want but I might have the need for a custom shader in the future.

I see, once again thank you very much!
Yep I realise I'm using the effect in an unintended way here (as you say it's meant for objects with corresponding normalmaps loaded into the tileset) but I've...

Regarding the TileNormalMap shader could you check this please? The effect is different in dx9 vs dx11. Do you know why?

Still you managed to do it in record time! :D Thanks a lot!

New problem. When scrolling to edges while zoomed in the mouse gets offset once again and I don't think I'm handling the edge scrolling in the best way.
BartekB (or anyone) please check out my new...

Could someone please convert TileNormalMap shader to DX11 ?
Thanks!

Have you tried stretching it by code? It shouldn't use more ram.
(ie. Make a 12x12 black object and then scale it up at runtime using "Set scale to 1000")

Ah I see now.

Since my current project depend on pathfinding I'm very interested in the subject.
I've been using a solution based on SolarB Tower-Defence-Kit-ALL-PLATFORMS which I've modified to...

An easy way to get the red tint flash effect is to use the built-in RGB coefficent effect. Do something like:

Volnaiskra Thanks you're the man! Good idea but for now I've worked around it by simply adding conditions

I would like to know for sure what's happening here. It seems like it's counting the...

If anyone could check the file to at least confirm that it's happening on your end as well that would be great.

Yes, I'm using build 293.6 (beta, steam)
Glad it was (already) fixed ;)

For what it's worth, I'm not getting the black lines in either mfa, but they do appear in the exe.

I've encountered a critical weird behaviour.

In the example I've been adding write actions to the array but once I hit 36 actions all sorts of weird things starts happening, it seems to behave...

I would actually use builtin ballmovement for something like this, simplest way to get smooth movement for "free".
I have some trouble picturing what you're actually looking for but something like...

Did some more testing and disabling the debugger seem to fix the issue entirely on my end. After closing the debugger I cannot reproduce framedrops by moving the mouse regardless of pollrate. I know...

Interesting find. I've tried to test this on my projects and system and it does indeed seem that mouse pollrate affects framerate. I don't get anyway near such a dramatic framedrop though, in fact I...

Yeah objects won't get destroyed until end of frame (ie "garbage collection" is done after your code). This probably could be made clearer since it's not obvious.
In your example you'll need to...

AFAIK timer-based movement only affects:
(1) clickteams built-in non-physical movements (bouncing ball movement etc.)
(2) animation speed of active objects

Does it affect anything else?

and...

Thanks for the confirmation. Yeah I made the example loops as simple as possible for clarity, they aren't "real" practical code.

It really should be renamed "Bilinear filtering" because that's what it really is right?
I mean anti-aliasing can be achieved through many different methods.
And I have to say I agree with OP, it...

This is a bit embarrasing but I've always assumed that when you trigger a For Each loop for an object it always runs for every one of that object and you would scope later in the "on loop stage",...

Man that was quick and easy, awesome! I suspected it should be fairly straightforward.
Thank you very much!

Using complex softwares zoom shader, mouse coordinates gets offset when zooming in and I can't figure out a formula to correct it (and no, moving the object to a non zoomable layer won't cut it)....

I took a quick look and it seems overly complicated and I might be missing the point but,
couldn't you do something simpler like if camera object overlaps "the colored rectangle objects" (using a...

Dang I was hoping for DX 11 support but I'm pretty disappointed it's dlc and months (?) away. I could understand DX 12 or Vulkan being a paid for option, but 11 is last gen and lots of software are...

Yes, I've been using clickteams stuff since K&P days (man, thats like...20 years!) and it's very frustrating when things you just don't understand pop up.


I appreciate you guys confirming that...

I wish I knew why it won't work though as it doesn't make any sense.

I have five buttons (each a seperate Active object with buttons qualifier) and using keyboardkey 1 should select button 1 (by having flag 0 set to on) while deactivating the others (flag 0 off).

Yes, any improvements to performance is very much appreciated. Good job!

Well I guess I could do the same thing with just one additonal array and use it's Z index to compare ID instead. Looking at it now I can't remember why I deemed it necessary to use one array per...

Yes your example would basicly be correct.
It sounds simple and maybe I'm tunnelvisioning, but how do you propose the code for dude1 to check in road altval(1) ? A specific dude would always need to...

butterfingers
Right, I'd post an example but stripping out assets I don't want public would take too long, so I don't know how much use this will be but since you ask I will try to explain more....

butterfingersCorrect. To clarify, the second example is what I'd want (without using an outside loop index).

I'm glad you confirm that this has potential use because I was so excited when I came...

butterfingers Thanks but sorry I should have been more clear that I was hoping to do it directly in the expression editor without resorting to additonal objects,counters or fastloops.
My check is...

Yes I want to use it for scoping. There will be multiple object1 and object2 and basicly object2 will store values (set to the index of "altval a" of object1) for each of object1. I can store this...

I want to compare Active Objects1 altvalue A with = Object2 AltValN indexnumber, not the actual value stored in that position.

Is it possible?

So I just had a HD crash.
Fortunetly nothing major was lost and I recently backedup of my whole mmf2 (b249) directory.
Now I'm wondering if I can/should:

I would have to agree.

Here's an example I made. I converted the ship to 256 colors because I was lazy. But it should be easy enough to do the original one provided that you have the palette for it (you could just...

I think this has been adressed in the new build (currently in beta).

Yes! I've wondered about this myself. I really want this feature if it's not implemented yet.

ooh. Circular minimap option would indeed be very cool actually.
Though I suppose you could already fake it by masking the edges of the minimap with an active object shaped like a cutout circular...

Ah great :)

I think I found an issue.
http://www.clickteam.com/epicenter/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=70823#Post70823

Simple code.

Try changing display mode to standard and it will work.

Sorry if this has already been...

The active objects has nothing to do with the extension.

The extension is perfect. Bring it out of beta and...

Man you're working fast and hard! :)

Just wanted to add to the praise and say that this is really cool! Awesome work!
Oh and please just name it "Physics object" anything else is just sounds ridicilous imo.

Seems to be working great :)
Thank you so much for the unbelievably fast work!

Great! Thanks alot.

On a sidenote I must say that I am very impressed by the support you have for your products.

Could you please look into this Yves?

It wont work correctly in this build either.

Strange behaviour in the picture editor while using a diffrent default palette and 256 color mode.

Please check the example for a better description of the problem.

These problems won't occur...

Not really. You seem to be working hard and keeping a good pace at new patches/builds but if you could add it within the next couple of months it would be great.
