An Intro to my Project - game3 core

Daedalus_MDW · December 10, 2018, 1:21pm

coming soon… modifier keys can be set as a key bind! be mindful all other binds will still be reacting to the modifier key states.

a thanks to @Guyus_Matlow for requesting this feature!

Hello Deadalus. I was about to test new features but can’t launch game again Console give me this error:

What should i do?

CYNIC78 · December 22, 2018, 2:24am

Nevermind. I just had to put scripts in game3 folder and it’s working!

I found little bug. When you switch to purple guy and then press F key he become kinda transparent or have flipped normals effect. Here is screen:

Rest is working great. I just love grab ledge system you can crawl on moving platforms! Great!
Thank you Deadalus for all progress you’ve made. Can’t wait for new updates!

Daedalus_MDW · December 22, 2018, 11:36am

yeah, ive been doing a lot of shuffling around stuff as of late. be sure to download the latest release and then update that with source.

posted some new commits to improve the HUD. weapons are now icons on the side bar. ill post a new release tomorrow with the updates.

the purple guy is a character in my game which has invisibility powers. that was just a graphics effects test which i decided to demo the state switch feature.

look at the bottom of characters.py for the code.

Daedalus_MDW · December 22, 2018, 11:51am

to update the demo from source:

clone the demo repo
unzip “bge_game3_demo_data.zip” to current folder
clone the core repo
move the core files into “game3” folder or unzip into

CYNIC78 · December 22, 2018, 12:51pm

Yeah thank you for detailed explanation.

Oh this is very nice feature with partly invisible polygons. I am sure it would look awesome on character.
I love improvements you’ve made in template. Physics, locked doors, switching weapons, weapon icons and so on. Also I love that now I can launch level directly from blend file. Your template is getting really awesome i couldn’t even dream if there will be such great template for BGE.
Basicly it already has almost every feature to build cool game. And more cool that I can learn from your code to build my own game based on Python (logic bricks are cool but very limited and quickly become real mess).

So i will wait tommorow update to test new features.

Daedalus_MDW · January 4, 2019, 2:25am

new release! lots and lots of bug fixes. most assets converted to srgb, along with the ui. next release will have a new camera system, better classes, armor/damage system, and more weapon and inventory stuff. also, im going to sync game3 module in a more orderly fashion, only updating to release.

https://github.com/DaedalusMDW/bge_game3_demo/releases/tag/1.1.2

NOTE: the demo zip has been deleted for github performance reasons, but all demo assets will still be in builds.

CYNIC78 · January 4, 2019, 2:40am

Cool. So long waited update! Gonna test it now!
Also new planned stuff is very intriguing - weapon\damage will be great improvement! Thank you Deadalus! Can’t wait for final release when all features are added and all scripts are polished and organized in this wonderfull template!

game3_core got some updates to master.

added a place for slope/stair animation, just add ".Stairs" to the end of "Running" to make it a stair animation. demo content will have a new animation when released.
fixed a slope detection bug. you can now land on steep slopes that you could walk on. ray slope bias wasnt accounted for. as a result, landing on any slope no longer has the “float up” effect.
player objects no longer needed: “WallRay”, “WallRayTo”, and “GroundRay”.
“RAYFOOT” trigger added to react when standing on an object. like “RAYCAST”, it sends self and lives in CorePlayer.doInteract().

Lostscience · January 12, 2019, 10:07am

where is the link to the build with the demo assets?

Daedalus_MDW · January 12, 2019, 10:18am

bge_game3_demo then click releases.

https://github.com/DaedalusMDW/bge_game3_demo/releases/tag/1.1.2

bear in mind its not the latest game3 module. download bge_game3_core and replace the contents of game3 folder to update. note that master is a bit broken.

Lostscience · January 12, 2019, 10:19pm

does getting in and out of the vehicle work for you?It does not for me.

Daedalus_MDW · January 12, 2019, 10:31pm

what doesnt work? a video or screenshot would be helpful. did you change any part of it?

ill double check and see if i can find any issue.

Lostscience · January 12, 2019, 10:39pm

i did not change anything.i had to close the game with the windows key.
what does fatal runtime error mean?here is the error I am getting.

Daedalus_MDW · January 12, 2019, 10:49pm

heres what happened, the hud scene crashed due to a name change, and the vehicle didnt like no hud being there.

although the vehicle should have detected the hud scene not being there, and not crashed.

i thought i did fix this but the commit must have gotten lost or something.

thanks for reporting, ill get this fixed.

Daedalus_MDW · January 12, 2019, 11:27pm

you must be using old files? judging by the path you are using, it looks like you downloaded the core, which is already included in the demo.

try redownloading “game3_DemoFull_112.zip” from the link above. that has demo assets and core v1.2.0 packaged.

EDIT: looks like the bug was caused by something wrong with your setup. but this also showed me problems with the error handling. it should have silently failed and resorted to a fallback preventing a total crash. next release will have better handling of HUD failures.

CYNIC78 · January 13, 2019, 2:56pm

Hello Deadalus. I’ve tested your new update, everything is working well on my side including car. No noticeable bugs.

Lostscience · January 13, 2019, 9:05pm

thankyou what you said worked

Lostscience · January 13, 2019, 9:23pm

for me the cars suspension is bouncing around too much.

Daedalus_MDW · January 13, 2019, 10:45pm

in the PYTHON folder, the bottom of demo.py has the Buggy class.

WHEELCONFIG has “SPRING” and “DAMPING” which can be tweaked to your liking.

increase damping to soften, increase spring to make bouncy, increase both to toughen.
