Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
I am glad that you liked it Trantor
- When eating something, as well as putting an object on the eye doesn't hide the item in version 0.1c, this is a new problem that weren't there the previous versions.. I was alittle fast on releasing this version because I want to get rid of a serious bug that alandale and sphenx are experiencing..
- It is good that you noticed the lightning problems, I have to check the calculations alittle bit closer.
- About the flying item, I haven't noticed that but I will check it out and correct it if you are right..
- The clicksounds has nothing to do with my 3D engine, it is still CSBWin that has control over them. The sounds usually gets corrected if you press the sound menu and then "Attempt using DirectX". In later versions I will replace the original DM soundengine to one of my own.
- The whole DM dungeon can be played. But from level 2 (counting from 0 ), there may be some minor weirdness, but nothing major..
Thanks for your input

Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
It works! No more second dungeon view, no more flickering, and the UI controls are always visible. Great job. Now I can actually try it out some more.
Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
Beautiful
Now I can continue my work with a clean conscience..
Thanks for your patience Alandale, it helped me alot that you where so quick on trying out and answering too the new releases!

Skull!!!
I'm so glad that you mastered it.
With those latest reports I was scared about things getting out of control.

I think it will work on work notebook also, mostly because I only use the simplest opengl comands now..
Just have to fix the resolution alittle, now it is stuck on 960x600, and that may be a little bit to much for your notebook.

Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
It's not that I want it under all circumstances for the notebook, that one obviously really misses some of the common features. And yes, y=600 wouldn't work, because it refuses to do it windowed then - and fullscreen it doesn't like too - even that some programs manage to switch it in fullscreen though...
It's more about your sanity and good mood. I don't want the project to drive you crazy. We need your spirit here

Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
Rasmus, you solved the two problems I had! Fine work
Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
@Bit: There is no problem, I am going to do it anyway.. Right now I have managed to get it working in fullscreen at any resolution posible. So that is a great improvement.
@Sphenx: I am very glad to hear that, these problems have been buging me for a while..
I will release v0.1d as soon as I have fixed with the options to choose resolution and fullscreen mode, and have updated the editor so that it is alittle bit less complicated to use..

Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
Hello everyone.. Marry Christmas to you all
I just wanted to say that I haven't forgotten about you all.. I have just been alittle busy with school and the holidays..
We got a project creating some games in Java to January, so I have been using alot of my free time to create a pong, snake, pac man, and now a wolfenstein game with all the 3d maths created by my own (can't use OpenGL ). Ofcourse they are all alittle bit more advance than the originals, but it is alot of fun
About my DM project, I have managed to make it work in fullscreen or desireable resolution. And right now I am working on replacing all dm graphics like inventory, actionbars etc. But not only the graphics, also the layout. This took alittle bit longer than expected because I also have to locate all the functions in CSBWin for putting a item in the hand, pressing on the runes, swinging weapons etc.
But I have come a long way, and when I am done I am hoping to be able to release a demo where the dungeon viewport can take up the whole screen and have the GUI placed over it with alittle bit of transparancy..
I am also hoping to be able to create a chat system in the game, so that everyone that are playing it can communicate with eachother. If that would work, then I will never stop smiling over here

Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
Wow, that last paragraph is both fantastic and scary!
Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
Well, time will tell.. If that works, then I think I will take a new direction. It would be cool finishing dungeons together with other players, or battle against other players. But I do think the dungeons have to be special made for multiplayergames, so no standard DM or CSB dungeon..

Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
Wanted to share a screenshot of what it is I am doing now..
I am creating a new editor using Visual C++ Windows Form Net (or what it is called).. Anyway it helped me alittle bit with getting a more userfriendly layout when creating editors. Here we can some of the things the editor is capable of doing, all objects on the screen has been resized moved and messed with. It can also change the graphic on all images. As it is now, CSBWin is fully playable with any layout created in this editor (as long as the buttons aren't hidden )
This screenshot may not look like much, but it is just something I throw together in 5 minutes. I will post more screenshots later showing its full potential

Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
Extreamly customisable interface
I was thinking that not only dungeons could be downloaded, but also interfaces.

Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
Can't believe I hadn't noticed this. Read the whole thread and was amazed at the progress but saw that there hadn't been a post for about 7-8 months.... I really hope work is able to continue Rasmus, it's excellent what you have already unlocked.
Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
I'm sure he's busy with something great again, and if not, he's learning, and that's even more promising.
Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
Rasmus's last post is only at the end of August!
Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
No I know that, I meant the length of time between his last post and the previous post in the thread! Sorry for not being clear. Anyway, just hopeful that work may continue as it's all too common around these parts for someone to start something really promising that blows our minds and something stopping the progress whatever it may be.

i hadn't tried the last release and i've just discovered today the terrain effect Rasmus implemented on some areas in level 1, simply brilliant !!

Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
Terrain effect?
EDIT: Ah, I played it and see what you mean -- subtle variable height floor!
EDIT2: The editor seems broken? I just get a weird screen with missing fonts?

Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
same for me with the editor, but you can play a little by changing texture bitmaps

Hey Rasmus, can you fix the editor in v1.0e? I'd like to have a play around with it, but it's broken:

Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
Fixed, it was a conflict between CSBWin font.bmp and the editor font.bmp.. So here you go..
http://www.rasmus-dev.com/games/CSBWin3Dv0.1f.zip
I was also about to upload the GUI editor so that all the menus could be changed into ones liking, but because I have gotten a new computer and upgraded my VC++ to 2010 the *** thing won't compile.. But I can always look at it later, for now one can always fool around with the images in the the media folder

Re: Converting CSBWin graphicengine to a OpenGL 3D engine
I don't know if anyone has tried out the new version (even if atleast 20 persons seems to have downloaded it ).. So any comment are appriciated
I got my groove back when fiddeling with CSBWin again, a couple of new ideas came into mind. Mostly because I think the editor that is there now is sort of primitive even if the results are nice..
So I started making an alternative editor, the biggest problem I had with the first editor was that I had to place it "over" the CSBWin code because I didn't want to spend all my time with how to load the dungeon files and get everything right.. The editor wasn't suppose to change anything in the dungeonfile either, therefore this quick solution..
So now I tried to do it diffrently, instead of rewriting the CSBWin code to create the editor, I ran the CSBWin game simulationsly with the editor, and let the editor ask questions to CSBWin about the levelsize, party position etc. while it was running..
Here is a screenshot:
The beauty about this is that I only set CSBWin into "editor mode", making it posiible to do things it can't do in gamemode.. On the screenshoot we see the editor showing what monsters, walls, pits etc. there are on the level, and its current position, almost like a quickmap but for another program.. The editor can move around the party in CSBWin as easy as a mouseclick on a specific tile or level.
The purpose about this is that I want to be able so send graphics to CSBWin from the editor while in the game, in this way I will see the result directly, and also locate the bugs alot more faster..
(And yes, I know about the lightning problem on the standard wallsets from level 2 (counting from 0) and beyond.. )
