Oh :oops: Of course, it was coming from App.CameraPosition.Z I made so much copy and paste from one project to another for trying out the android devices that I completely messed up... As for the rest, I'll re-read everything tomorrow after a good night of sleep. That 0.25 thing out of nowhere kille...

Thanks for your help, Kjell :wink: I managed to get something working on all screens, using a FOV 90, distance 1, as you told: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1" ?> <ZApplication Name="App" Caption="ZGE Screen Ratio" ClearColor="0 1 0 1" FullS...

Hi, I've been having this weird problem on some screens where the background isn't properly fitting the screen size. So I made a strip down example in order to test that. Here's what I'm doing to scale the background square: BackgroundMeshSize.Scale.X = App.ScreenWidth * ScreenScale; BackgroundMeshS...

Ok. So I would need to create a library just for shaking the Android, like rado1 did for tilting the sensors?

Hello. Today, I'm trying to use the code I wrote for shaking the XInput controller to also shake the Android booty. I added the permissions in the AndroidManifest.xml but I have no clues of how to access Android functions such as VIBRATOR_MANAGER_SERVICE from ZGE. I guess I have to use ZExternalLibr...

You are right, I can totally use CollisionBounds and ColissionOffest to do that. Thanks for the good suggestion

Edit:
Using CollisionBounds.X with 1 to number of different sounds I want to make is nice, simple and working like a charm. Thanks

Years later, some players could not launch the game on Linux and I couldn't find why. After reinstalling Linux on my laptop, I discovered that it was not crashing for me because, at some point, I installed some weird XInput libraries for Linux. But with a fresh install, the game is crashing like eve...

Oh all right. I understand why you are doing that, but having it working in preview and not in release is a bit confusing :? I can manage with categories, even if enemies and obstacles have the same number for rendering and for cleaning all the models. I'll change that. For example, I'll have to cyc...

All right, so now I have this weird bug where everything works in the ZGE preview, but not when the game is compiled (windows and android) :| Here's a strip down code of what I'm actually doing: int isModelPassingByMakesSound(xptr pointer) { if (pointer == null) return FALSE; // In case zbtRayTest t...

Hahaha. Thanks Ville, you are totally right about the zgeSetUserModel. I had it on the enemies but not on the obstacles. And a quick search in the forum with that name leads directly to my own post being very clear about that very part... :lol: http://www.emix8.org/forum/viewtopic.php?p=10329#p10329...

Hello, In order to play different sounds when walls or spaceships are passing by the player, I'm trying to retrieve what kind of model is passing around. I made this function (using ZgeBullet), that fire rays to test if models are passing around the player. Here's a striped down example for detectin...

How are you calculating the screen position of your vertices in your vertex shader? Simply "modelViewProjectionMatrix * vec4(position, 1.0)"? Or are you using multiple matrix multiplications? Here's what I'm doing: uniform mat4 modelViewMatrix; uniform mat4 modelViewProjectionMatrix; unif...

Hahaha thanks ChatKjell for the great explanations :wink: Perhaps you're using relatively big values in your game? The drawing distance is 500. And Things appears at a distance of 600 to avoid suddenly poping out of the fog. That's 5x the base drawing distance of ZGE. Maybe the problem comes from th...

So today I tried ChatGTP , asking it questions about GLSL shaders. Turns out it was super helpful with advices like: Avoid using uniform arrays if possible. Instead of using a uniform matrix for the light position, light color ambient, and fog color, you could use individual uniform variables for ea...

With 250% help from Kjell, the problem I had was corrected. It was coming from the ITERATE_MANIFOLDS_FOR_OBJECT macro in the c++ wrapper of the Bullet3 library. And since there is still no news from Rado1, and I hope that he is fine, I forked his project on GitHub . It includes: Correction for colli...
