Hi! ;) No sure where to put this... but here I go... I know some people in the past always asked about Game Mechanics Kit (GMK) although it is not updated, I think is the first WORKING and compiled release shared to the public :lol: and important without high priority bugs....this means you can work with this. If someone want to play and test this product, here is the link! You can download the executable from here: https://github.com/John3/T3D_GMK_BULLET/releases And the code is in here: https://github.com/John3/T3D_GMK_BULLET I documented some issues: https://github.com/John3/T3D_GMK_BULLET/issues BTW It is not from the code merge.... I think is from the product itself. As you can see from the release note, this are the versions used: - Torque3D v2.0 - Game Mechanics Kit (GMK) v1.2.13 - Bullet Physics v2.78 release 2383 Information about GMK: http://www.logicking.com/index.php?page=gameMechanicsKit Some videos about GMK: https://www.youtube.com/user/logickingcom/videos As a note aside I manage to merge and compile GMK and GuideBot but have some important bugs from the TS side that I need to manage. (I think GuideBot is unfinished) Regards, J

You are right, this should be posted in here Torque 3D website feedback Very true! :lol: I think the mostly are programmers... :mrgreen:

Hey hi @xetra11 ;) Sorry for the late reply I don't see your post I forgot this issue :shock: or not sure maybe is not an issue :? :? Issue #1248 right now not remember the workaround :( I think from here GUI Editor - Tutorial Advanced you can learn how to use "insertItem".

I'm not familiar with that error.... What options are you using in CMake?? is a clean template right? From CMake try deleting your cache, from file menu, then select SDL again. I can compile release or debug and selecting all options from cmake without issue. And from VS2015 do the same, clean your cache/project. Maybe something from the past compile is still there. http://i.imgur.com/bezWyZs.png Yeah I notice the "normal console key".

I was playing few months ago http://forums.torque3d.org/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=512 the only problem I found, was to paint the last pixel.

Hi @Steve_Yorkshire You need to use VS2015.

When will be reviewed, cleaned or included those PR with 3.9 milestone tag from github?? Thx

No, if you don't want to compile, you need to download the binary files

Hi! I want to do a better test for bullet, to proper test this PR https://github.com/GarageGames/Torque3D/pull/1684 can anyone give a hint? I tested trowing 400 physics boxes and 400 physics boulders. With 800 physics shapes my FPS dropped from 150 to 20. This pic is went finished trowing stuff... http://i.imgur.com/RczPfjD.jpg

hmmmm here reading again what told @Bloodknight keep me thinking... there is a correct way to compile the new Torque3D v3.9??

that was what I was trying to say :) https://github.com/GarageGames/Torque3D/pull/1580#issuecomment-230162610

First!!! Nice!! Thanks!! :D

Hi! From good rlranft... here you have the documentation, and familiarize yourself with the engine....read the GUI Tutorial and the Scripting Tutorial, http://www.roostertailgames.com/TorqueRef/index.html See this "SimXMLDocument Class Reference" http://docs.garagegames.com/torque-3d/reference/classSimXMLDocument.html You can download the references from here: Torque 3D - Script Manual.chm Some examples: function write(%client) { %file = new FileObject(); %file.openforWrite("modpath/folder/filename.cs"); %file.writeLine("any text you want to write here"); %file.close(); %file.delete(); } function readXmlExample(%filename) { %xml = new SimXMLDocument() {}; %xml.loadFile(%filename); %xml.pushChildElement("DataTables"); %xml.pushFirstChildElement("table"); while(true) { echo("TABLE:" SPC %xml.attribute("tableName")); %xml.pushFirstChildElement("rec"); while (true) { %id = %xml.attribute("id"); %desc = %xml.getData(); echo(" Shape" SPC %id SPC %desc); if (!%xml.nextSiblingElement("rec")) break; } %xml.popElement(); if (!%xml.nextSiblingElement("table")) break; } }source: http://www.garagegames.com/community/forums/viewthread/100483/1#comment-686373 And download the attached old resource "Script_Editor". Script_Editor_1.1b2.rar

the bug is fixed in the current development branch. pull #1657

Ah come on! I did in less of 10min that video, I can't wait to finish compile! :lol: I was trying to help someone quickly :roll: But I don't think that anyone need to compile Torque3D.... I mean what for? we have binaries right now, stables and from dev updated :D unless someone need to change something in the code... Don't worry... BTW thank for the comment ;)

added old discussion related: Artist and level designers

Is very odd if you have conflicts packages, unless you have installed some package outside of the distro repository. Please shared a screenshot of your console/terminal, I think something is missing in that log. Not sure but try this: [code2=bash]apt-get clean apt-get update apt-get -f YOUR_PACKAGE[/code2] Please show me what libXXX packages have you installed, to know if the Linux already have that package installed but with other version.

@deathbravo yea you can use Debian or Debian base family. I recommend to use Debian BTW and use the unstable or testing repo it has moderns apps for a Desktop PC, updated but unstable, if I'm not wrong, Ubuntu is based on Debian unstable repo. I'm not forcing to use any distro, but as recommendation don't use Ubuntu or Ubuntu family :lol: and a professional recommendation, if you want at some point work in Linux, stay away of Ubuntu, if you used, you will learn Ubuntu not Linux, and that is the problem. If someone not technical will use a Linux OS, yea you can recommend to him Ubuntu, PCLinuxOS *1, Mageia , Linux Mint amount others because they will never dig in the OS, they only will use the GUI. This kind of distros hide a lot of stuff, so at GUI level is pretty good and this is the main goal/"philosophy", but behind is a mess of files and dependencies... (may be this is not true for all desktop user friendly distros) BTW I forgot to mention, you need multilib or multiarch? I was assuming you need multilib but may be I'm wrong. Please see this for the differences: http://wookware.org/talks/multiarch-ELC2012.pdf https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/HOWTO#What_is_this_Multiarch.3F Just to be sure if you not already see it: http://wiki.torque3d.org/coder:compiling-in-linux *1: http://pclinuxoshelp.com/index.php/PCLinuxOS - Philosophy of PCLinuxOS NOTE: If you want to keep talking about this kind of subject, we can do it in the forum/general ;)

Yes of course. Everything is summed, what you want to do? and what is your skill level? the truth is, almost everything you can do in any distro, but we fall into the question again, what is your skill level? So, why I asked "what you want to do?" if I can do in any distro, because some distros have "ready" or "plug and play" some stuff. Another truth is, any distros has his philosophy *1, and you need to know it, this is very important this affect how you use it or how you manage the system, you need to adapt yourself to your linux system, not the other way, unless you make a distro or have a high linux skill level of course... Apologizes for the brief longer explanation :D So, let me try to recommended a good distro for what you need... For everything you said, I can recommend the following distros... Skill level easy - Fedora Skill level intermediate - Arch Linux Skill level high - Slackware I'm using the following criteria for choosing that distros: for learning linux, development, linux philosophy, gaming, web services, the skill you learn can apply to a job, for desktop use, for home server use, stability and other criteria related to updated/outdated apps but need more explaining and I have sleep! . :lol: Returning to your main question, I used a lot Slackware, Arch Linux (and others distros like gentoo, etc) and the method to install a multilib environment was very easy, without exaggeration one or two commands. See this: Arch Linux https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Multilib Slackware Linux http://www.slackware.com/~alien/multilib/ As you can see is easy, 2 steps, ripped all the explanations, of course you need to know what are you doing. If you have any doubt please comment it.... *1 Read about Slackware philosophy for understand what I mean: http://docs.slackware.com/slackware:philosophy - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slackware#Design_philosophy regards J

boys boys! take it easy.... :lol: :lol: aaahhh the family :o so much love :lol: :lol: errr I mean community :lol: Gameplay + Graphics! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen: I mean look it that! who dont love mario or metroid! :D :D :D

I don't use ubuntu, I don't like it. Is a very special distro :lol: and frequently the problem only apply to ubuntu distros.... Ok, as recomendation never install multiarch/multilib on a system. Try always to use 64bit version of the app. If you don't know, you may hurt the system, it don't destroy itself hahaha Basically multilib/multiarch what do is, have two folders "lib" and "lib64". Apps 32b use lib folder Apps 64b use lib64. Ok First, try to clean you system and remove the multiarch you installed. I try to compile the app with x64. I think you may need to post your question on a ubuntu forum, because that steps are very strange to me. or if you share more info I can try to help you.

You can download from here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9GUwtDHCp_ebjlDTHdfZzNpWEU http://wiki.torque3d.org/introduction:scripting-ides To configure the plugin: open Notepad++ in the View menu, click Language, then "Define your language..." Click Import and select the file you downloaded restart Notepad++ in the Language menu, you should now see a language called Torquescript at the bottom. Select it, and you're ready to go. Ahm not completely true hahaha :lol: maybe for game development you are right I don't know in this field.... but vi, vim, emacs, and other obscure editors are used everyday, for different uses, not only to program... Especially the 3 which I named :D but you're right.... we're on it ;) of course!!! Don't worry... some went through this too :D This are good alternatives, even notepad++ with his plugins, but this are text editors, you need to tweak to do stuff more like IDE. I remember doing something like this in sublime to compile my project and stuff.. Ok but an IDE or a TEXT EDITOR are two different thing...

@Bloodknight from here http://www.garagegames.com/products/torque-3d/fps#/1-setup/2 I never had problem with this when I was learning. http://i.imgur.com/tPexPc1.png The last version from official repo https://github.com/John3/Torque3D-FPSTutorial I start updating the FPS tutorial here: https://bitbucket.org/JohXz/newfpstutorial if you want check it out or give me a hand

Not necessary, maybe need to use the last feature, without walk all the way to compile. Even better because we have more people testing the development branch. Maybe you right, but what if someone found a bug from a RC/release, how can we minimize what commits broke a functionality? You can say I was using XXX commit and now don't work in this XXX commit. So, between they have maybe 15 commits? easily for hunt bugs. Done. This is so true I was always using development branch from the beginning I start learning T3D, of course I found some bugs here and there then I report it. . Done for the last commit and future commits.
