ENIGMA Development Environment

Hello,

Under DirectX9, if you minimize a windows and restore it to the default size, all objects disappears.

Probably something to do with not flipping the backbuffer, most likely an easy fix.

I know nothing about OpenGl, but anyway i tried to investigate the problem.  I read that when you are using multiple viewports with OpenGL, you should use the instruction SwapBuffers(). So i tried in the GL3screen.cpp file, to add this method in the screen_redraw() function :


    for (view_current = 0; view_current < 8; view_current++)
    {
        ...

        screen_set_viewport(view_xport[vc], view_yport[vc], view_wport[vc], view_hport[vc]);

        clear_view(view_xview[vc], view_yview[vc], view_wview[vc], view_hview[vc], view_angle[vc], background_showcolor && draw_backs);

        ...

        SwapBuffers();
    }

I try to use this method, but i've a message which declares it's not available. ('SwapBuffers' was not declared in this scope). I know it's a noob question, but if someone can help, i will appreciate.

Edit : it seems SwapBuffers is not included in glew.h, but it's available in glew.c, so i tried to include this file also, but it was a mistake as ENIGMA is stuck when compiling the sources. (c.f glew manual : 'The simpler but less flexible way is to include glew.h and glew.c into your project')

Is inheritance involved?

No, i don't think so. Here is a test project :

As you can see, there is only one object type. This problem occurs only in the 'creation code' of a room.

Thanks for your help Robert. Unfortunately,  nothing is displayed in my game now ! 
Even in the title screen, you don't see anymore the title, and in the game itself, except for the HUD, nothing is displayed.

Here is a test project, with a room with some letters displayed. As you can see, nothing is displayed:

I tested the project with Open GL 1.1, 3,0, and DirectX 9.0 under windows 8.1. Same result for all API, except that OpenGl 3.0 doesn't compile anymore:

Edit : if you take my test_draw_sprite.egm project, and remove in the creation code of the room the visible = false line , then the objects of the room are displayed. But if you remove the draw event of the obj_0, then nothing is displayed. It seems that nothing is displayed, except if you have a draw event.

Hello,

I've an object with a draw event, where i've the following code  :

draw_sprite(sprite_index, -1, x, y);
Now if i try to set the object property to false :

with (obj_0)
{
  visible = false;
}
The object is still visible. This is not the case in GM. If i remove the draw event, then the object is now invisible.

Here is a sample test project:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/29802501/test_draw_sprite.egm

In the creation code of the room, i try to hide the objects, but as you can see it doesn't work.

I want to display a health bar with the draw_rectangle_color method. The health bar should be red on the left and blue on the right. I've used the following method:

draw_rectangle_color(char_width * 6, view_yview[1] + char_width * 2, char_width * 38, view_yview[1] + char_width * 3, c_red, blue, blue, c_red, false);
Here is the result on GM :



and with ENIGMA:



The specs of this method are the same on ENIGMA and GM:
http://docs.yoyogames.com/source/dadiospice/002_reference/drawing/drawing%20basic%20forms/draw_rectangle_color.html
http://enigma-dev.org/docs/Wiki/Draw_rectangle_color

As you can see, colors are not correct. Of course i can change easily my method, but i wanted just to report the bug.

Those aren't supported in the current EDL spec. They are planned for the future.

Ok, but in this case, they should removed from the wiki ! :
http://enigma-dev.org/docs/Wiki/ENIGMA:Specification#Enumerations

Declarations of enumerations are not working in scripts or objects, but i've found that you can declare them in 'Enigma settings -> Definitions'.
