I'm also making a rhythm game! (It's called "HeartBeat")
But it's on an HDD that won't work anymore unless the cable is close to a different angle, so I can't work on it anymore 😦

have you tried using something to keep the cable at said angle for an extended period of time so you can try to get everything off of it and to somewhere safe
novel gust
I'm also making a rhythm game! (It's called "HeartBeat")

you didnt put it on github?
also hold the cable at that angle for a bit, and while your holding it transfer the files to somewhere where you can get them, like your pc/laptop

i need the glow sprite that goes behind the player when you hit a hold note
Do you still need it?

Sorry for the really late response

my sustains are done
ancient spruce
Ah okay
ancient spruce
Pretty good tbh
novel gust
ooh cool
ancient spruce
To be honest, i might and a slightly visible line for the editor
That connects previous and next tile
ancient spruce
Players can just "hmm this tile goes there"

i thought you meant like gameplay paths

i thought you meant like gameplay paths
Nahh

Players can just "hmm this tile goes there"
yeah, i like that
oh yeah also i almost forgot to ask
will you make compatibility with my map format? cause I plan to make mine compatible with yours
if you ever need examples ill send you a map from ltpl
ancient spruce
Not sure
I'll think about it
I'll probably make an import thing for it
But later when the editor is done
novel gust
sadge, i have themes but you can't change the sustains cause thair generated at runtime
ancient spruce
Oh also i forgot that i added the settings screen
There's only option to change offsets
Aaand that's all

oh i need to import that into ltpl-
ancient spruce
More options will be added
ancient spruce
I hate playing without offset

have you added map image/video background support
and the ability to change arrow tile step colors?
ancient spruce
Image / Video background support
No, backgrounds can be done in the editor later (adding objects and stuff, ref. adofai)

I might make a new asset caching system
Actually
No nvm
This doesn't need it
Cause like for another project I'm making, it loads lots of big images and assets, and keeps it in memory which sometimes crashes the game, and after development goes on, I don't wanna have to enable big blocks
Cause like it can take upwards of 3 gb of memory average while running the game
So I thought I could make some form of physical memory
And if you didn't know that 3gb of memory was all purely cached flxgraphics
coral knot
And if you didn't know that 3gb of memory was all purely cached flxgraphics
the consequences of not using gpu only textures
novel gust
So I thought instead of caching the flxgraphics, why not make it so it physically stores pixel data that had already been read so that it would take significantly less time to load graphics
novel gust
the consequences of not using gpu only textures
The hell are gpu only textures
coral knot
that's how they're supposed to work
basically
you really only need to upload the texture to the gpu (which openfl already does automatically)
but it also keeps a copy of the raw pixel data
in case you need to modify the bitmapdata
coral knot
you can call BitmapData.disposeImage() that gets rid of the raw pixel data
novel gust
Cause I just want to take the texture from the gpu
coral knot
at the cost of not being able to draw on the images anymore
novel gust
you can call `BitmapData.disposeImage()` that gets rid of the raw pixel data
But will it still be cached
coral knot
Wdym
novel gust
at the cost of not being able to draw on the images anymore
Oh wait wdym
coral knot
can't draw on it
coral knot
Like can I still use the image that was stored in the gpu
Yeah
novel gust
you can't modify the bitmap
Oh
coral knot
BitmapData holds a reference to the gpu texture and the raw pixel data
the gpu texture is always there, it's used for rendering
novel gust
I mean like how do I use the version of the texture on the gpu instead of an instance of BitmapData
coral knot
you don't have to do anything special
just keep using the BitmapData
you just have to call disposeImage() on it
novel gust
But I can still use it..
coral knot
yeah
coral knot
disposeImage() gets rid of the raw pixel data in RAM but doesn't modify the gpu texture
so it can still be used for rendering just fine
novel gust
How much do you think the memory usage will be reduced (3gb -> ?)
coral knot
Not sure
novel gust
Hm
coral knot
It depends on the sizes of your images and how many there are
but it might be substantial
novel gust
It depends on the sizes of your images and how many there are
There are a lot, and some of them get up to 8k x 8k px
The photos app lags opening those
coral knot
might go under 1gb
novel gust
Holy shit
I don't need physical memory storage anymore
Let's gooo
Wait you're making a flixel-waveform??
coral knot

Woah wait
Can it be used like fnf's visualizer
Cause or is it just the whole waveform
coral knot
I mean it's not meant to be an audio visualization thing
verbal bramble
waveform is a waveform
novel gust
I mean it's not meant to be an audio visualization thing
I see

for visualization you gotta use fft

novel gust
that habit is ass

oml if your computer dies, there goes your 10 reworks/features cause you didn't push in months
novel gust
My commits are always major changes
which is horrible
you made multiple major changes
ancient spruce
Yea
novel gust
my last push was 5 days ago
i had 3 commits for sustains
2 commits for themes
and a multitude of changes that took multiple commits each
compared to your multiple changes that were all in one commit
i think you get the gist
basically just commit more
novel gust
the gpu texture is always there, it's used for rendering
erm
it was NOT used for rendering..
novel gust
it was from psych engine btw
bitmap.lock();
if (bitmap.__texture == null)
{
bitmap.image.premultiplied = true;
bitmap.getTexture(FlxG.stage.context3D);
}
bitmap.getSurface();
bitmap.disposeImage();
bitmap.image.data = null;
bitmap.image = null;
bitmap.readable = true;
the GC may have not collected it yet
novel gust
intresting
coral knot
you might also be doing something wrong, not sure
novel gust
it's just bitmap.disposeImage();

verbal bramble
my ass fixed it by replacing _delta += flixel.FlxG.elapsed * 1000.; with _delta += (_timerStamp - _timer) * 1000.; and the difference of the timers meaning the actual elapsed time
verbal bramble
// _delta += flixel.FlxG.elapsed * 1000.; stinks
var _timerStamp = Sys.time();
_delta += (_timerStamp - _timer) * 1000.;
_timer = _timerStamp;
curPreciseBeat = getPreciseBeatAt(_delta);
// and more updating simplified from a single beat calc
ive put yet another reference to your game on another server

novel gust
I gotta rewrite a lot of things man
Cause rn the source code is everywhere
I think I'll make a component system
So playstate would have a GameLoopComponent instance
Or an InitializationComponent instance
And Player.hx should be like that too, and I feel like hit detection should be done with a playstate conponent
Etc
And I have to refactor a lot of things/fix a lot of buggs too

Hii

Yeah lol
novel gust
Next up i'll rewrite the way LineTapper handles assets
I made a theme system for that
I might remake Assets.hx too, as well as make a cache feature with the game caching assets that the theme has in its cachepath
The cache path is a text file with a list of image paths to cache when the theme is loaded
I never implemented it yet though

Is there's any way to simplify this
Trying to make a "Preferences" class which stores player's settings / configurations
Also SaveMap is just Map but returns same value on set 😔
coral knot
Maybe you could use a macro for the variables
coral knot
I don't know much about them either but I'm pretty sure they let you modify fields of a class
So you could probably use a macro to generate a variable with a getter and setter for each preference
But maybe thats a bit overkill for something like this
ancient spruce
Oof
ancient spruce
Is there's any way to simplify this
Oh yeah uuhh, will the __saveData field included as a struct as well?
Since i used structInit
ancient spruce
https://github.com/Ralsin/FNF-MintEngine/blob/main/source/funkin/api/Controls.hx
keybind:Keybind...
Does that means when accessing stuff, you'll need stuff like
Controls.keybind["ui_left"]?
ancient spruce
Idk i kinda want to have stuff like
Preferences.someSettingHereIDK
I think i have done similar system somewhere
Oh wait in CDEV Rewrite but for the controls
verbal bramble
why not put the saves into the game folder for portability :3
coral knot
I'm afraid that these things will be included in the struct init
Are you not using flxsave?
ancient spruce
why not put the saves into the game folder for portability :3
I guess i can try that
verbal bramble
same
coral knot
Why
ancient spruce
It's really just to simplify accessing it and clarity :']
verbal bramble
ancient spruce
Preferences.antialiasing
verbal bramble
my case is because FlxSave doesnt support saving in the game dir
it supports only appdata saves
and being able to use full path was a lie
george said it would be removed instead of fixing it 😭
so i just wrote my save class
also a bit of obfuscation so its not readable by text editors
so like yeah
its mixed chinese now
because its double the bytes
ancient spruce
I have made a decision of just using Preferences.get("antialiasing") for it :')
keys will be non case sensitive so yeah
novel gust
I have made a decision of just using Preferences.get("antialiasing") for it :')
Wait
Cant you just have a dynamic for the saves
So you can simply do if(prefs.antialiasing != null)
Or just loop through it
And use Reflect
That should work
ancient spruce
The main reason i wanted to make a custom saves class is to get those autocompletion thing on code
ancient spruce
So you can simply do if(prefs.antialiasing != null)
This too, when a preference is null, just return default value, rather than having a lot of null checks everywhere
That was my main idea for the Preferences class
😔
novel gust
This too, when a preference is null, just return default value, rather than havi...
Hence why I suggested looping through the dynamic value via reflect
So you don't have to do 20 billion manual null checks
ancient spruce
If i used Dynamic value (lets say var saves:Dynamic for example), i wouldn't know which preference field is which
novel gust
Wdym
ancient spruce
Autocompletion thing
novel gust
Oh yeah
Right
So I don't think there is a way to do it
Cause I don't see an issue with Preferences.saveData.get
ancient spruce
Is there's any way to simplify this
Making fields automatically than having to do this all over the place
novel gust
Mmmmh 
I mean it would work but
Wait
But like
Oh nvm
Bruh
This is so saddd
I've never made a macro before
Black magic of haxe fr

I'll just go with the Preferences.get and set systems for now

hmm
ancient spruce
ahh
agile magnet
i think it should be like 0.0.4 or 0.1 with all the progress
you can use semver
for versioning
ancient spruce
What's semver
stray hill
What's semver
Semantic versioning
stray hill
https://semver.org/
BTW this shi is industry standard for all software including games
Defo do use it
Altho with the quick dev cycle of line tapper it may also make sense to do something like bYYYYMMDDB(B)
like
b202412221
Or b20241222.1
You get the idea
ancient spruce
I still don't get how to use it though
All i know it's on 0.0.0 format
Okayy scroll bars are finished
coral knot
All i know it's on 0.0.0 format
major.minor.patch
Change major when making breaking changes to the api
Change minor when adding new features that isnt a breaking change
Change patch for bug fixes
Thats how I understand it
Although not sure how breaking changes would translate to in a game
Scripting?
agile magnet
major.minor.patch
Change major when making breaking changes to the api
Change ...
i like to think of major not being api changes, but infact major updates
coral knot
What classifies as a major update though
agile magnet
mmm
say you have a game like fortnite
a major update would probably be either a new season or a new chapter
for something like linetapper, id say itd be something akin to new gameplay mechanics
untold maple
does minor increase when i add like icons n stuff

a major update would probably be either a new season or a new chapter
And then you have Minecraft which is at like 1.22
ancient spruce
omw to make a fork <:ben:1026507448242143293> /j
There's only LT forks that are exists (and probably being maintained)
*there's only 1

Testing the Level Editor ▶️

Maps can be played directly on the Editor itself, although the editor is still unstable
I'm still thinking about the editor's layout / design that doesn't feel claustrophobic and cramped

@ancient spruce https://github.com/sphis-Sinco/langhaxe
Im adding language support
like
bare bones af language support lol
ancient spruce
How does it works though?
ancient spruce
Tried adding Indonesian language, it worked lol
shadow coral
Tried adding Indonesian language, it worked lol
yeah
shadow coral
How does it works though?
reading a json file with the extension of langhx
for each phrase in the game there is a phrase in the langhx file
A thing this game will have is an asset suffix which I haven't implemented yet cause I needed to sleep
shadow coral
Tried adding Indonesian language, it worked lol
It's very easy to customize
ancient spruce
A thing this game will have is an asset suffix which I haven't implemented yet c...
What is it used for tho
shadow coral
What is it used for tho
Change Assets (mostly ones with text probably) to be in the specified language
for example Indonesia would have an asset suffix of "id"
and the game will check for the asset with the suffix of "-id"
shadow coral
What is it used for tho
I now have this image loading in the game with the new system
ancient spruce
I now have this image loading in the game with the new system
I don't think we need to show current language on the logo

I don't think we need to show current language on the logo
No I mean change the text to the language
That was just a testing image

Like translating LineTapper?
shadow coral
Like translating LineTapper?
yeah
ancient spruce
Mmmm yeah no, I don't really think that's a good idea
ancient spruce
Alright
ancient spruce
Mmmm yeah no, I don't really think that's a good idea
Also the reason why i said this is because game titles translated to other languages can sound stupid (mostly)
LineTapper translated to Indonesia is Penekan Garis
Aaaandd that is horrible
cinder olive
Linetapper in ptbr would sound... Kinda dumb
shadow coral
LineTapper translated to Indonesia is Penekan Garis
sounds like a spell

the options there, if you want it
make the img and add like "-id" to it
if the image aint there
then it will revert to the original
ancient spruce
Linetapper in ptbr would sound... Kinda dumb
What's ptbr?
ancient spruce
then it will revert to the original
Ah, i see...
So assets can be customized by language?
cinder olive
What's ptbr?
Brazilian Portuguese
cinder olive
Toque de linha or Toque na linha smth like that
And a direct translation of that to english would be
Tap in line or tap on line
ancient spruce
Woah
Translators might be needed later
Or it is completely optional
But for now probably only english and indonesian are available
Because me is indonesian 🐈
cinder olive
Incase ya need ptbr translations I'm here :3
ancient spruce
It'll be helpful too :3
I think it's time for me to start working on the dropdowns
I can't imagine having to type in language names just to change the langauge
ancient spruce
Yup

ancient spruce
Yeah, sorry about that, been busy with my school stuffs
Even though it's school break for me :'
Can't really kept on being active for LineTapper since i kept on changing projects
shadow coral
oh

bugs you need to fix
etc

ancient spruce

shadow coral

So i just found out that there's a game similar to LineTapper and it's been out since like 2 years ago
cinder olive
guh
agile magnet
but it isn't line tapper!
ancient spruce
I mean yeah but uhhhh
agile magnet
I wouldn't worry about it too much
cinder olive
yeah there's thousands of games that looks like another game, don't worry
ancient spruce
Alrighty then
Also quick information about LineTapper
My PC decided to end itself (dunno how but it suddenly went stop working) and it might slow down LT's development progress
Glad that i have moved on from making big major commits to making smaller ones (it minimizes the risk of losing the game's development progress) xd

Glad that i have moved on from making big major commits to making smaller ones (...
Yeahhh that's what I was warning you about that one day
Also I stopped working on ltpl
Bc I'm more invested in a project I'm working on with my friend
I mean the only real difference was the asset system
ancient spruce
Yeahhh that's what I was warning you about that one day
Yeah thank you for that lol
ancient spruce
I mean the only real difference was the asset system
Huh
novel gust
Huh
it uses a theme/hscript system
custom menu states via hscript
and custom theme assets
an ini to tell game where assets are
all bundled in a folder
ancient spruce
Oh
ancient spruce
