Ok, but as i said . I deinstalled Everything. Then i installed Ultraengine again. If i use 0.97 Everything is fine. I create a new clean Projekt. if i update it to Beta Version only the Projekt Manager opens. There is the alert to update the Projekt. After that i click on the blank Projekt . The manager close. In Steam i can only start again the same procedere. Same if i create a clean Projekt in 0.98e before 0.98e it also has no Problems. And the 0.97 Version has no Problems too. sorry, it seems only i have that Problem.

by the way, if i start Ultraengine (Editor.exe) from my instalations folder, there is with the latest Beta an Error "Failed to initialize Steam" if i go back to 0.97 it starts without problem

sorry, dont work. I deinstalled everything and deleted all folders. then i reinstalled all new. If i start a plank projekt, the client closes with no error. Only if i install the 0.97 version everything is fine. but without the new fine updates

If i go back to 0.9.7 the client opens but 3 shader failed to load. (Projekt Manager is updated )

If i use the last achived version. The material is strange. I think because of the new tessilation

The client only works if I use the 0.96 archive version or don’t use the beta.

I updated the project every time the warning icon popped up. If I create a new project, the same issue occurs. I also uninstalled the engine and reinstalled it, even on a different hard drive.

Hi josh, no i have a msi rtx 3060 driver is the latest game ready driver

I’ll post the problem here since it fits the latest beta version. My client simply closes on startup without any error message (Steam version). When I start it from Steam, the Project Manager opens. However, when I click on the project, it closes without any error message. If I load the last archived version, the client does open, but there’s an error with the MDL files, saying that MDL 303 is not supported. Everything was working fine in the version before the last beta update. I’m sorry I can’t provide more information since no error occurs.

i have fun with that .. now i have a flock of fishes with avoid collision and different movements. at the moment there is a flicker in pitch or in avoid collision . maybe i find a solution later or someone find a solution Flock = {} Flock.name = "Flock" function Flock:Start() world = self.entity:GetWorld() self.boxes = {} self.boxProperties = {} self.offset = self.entity:GetPosition() -- Position of the pivot used as offset -- Define Y-axis limits self.minY = self.offset.y -

ok thanks .. thats my solution not yet perfect but for now ok .. the boxes will be change with a fish model

new one.. but there is a problem with "otherbox" ^^ attempt to call a nil value (method "GetPosition") also math.atan2 dont works

I wanted to try to recreate the script in UltraEngine.

Hello, long time no see ^^ at the moment i have a littel time and i try to learn more with lua. I need help with my script. Maybe my thoughts completley wrong. I have a simple map with two boxes. One box is Main the second Box i made as a child each box has the script I'm trying to find out if the box is included in table. and how i can store it. maybe i am compleatly wrong.. maybe someone can help me FlockEntity = {name = "FlockEntity"} FlockEntity.maxforce = Vec3(0) --set to 20.005 then its hoovering (Mass = 1) FlockEntity.pointforce = Vec3(0) function FlockEntity:Start() self.tbl = {} self.entity:GetParent() self.entity:FindChild("Box*") print(index) print(self.tbl) print(name) end function FlockEntity:Update() ------ Hoover ---------------------- self.entity:AddForce(self.maxforce) ------------------------------------ -----------------Flock.lua------------------------------------------------------------------------ self.radius = 1 for i=1, #self.tbl do self.elem = self.tbl[i] if (self.elem ~= self.entity) then self.vNeighborDelta = self.elem:GetPosition() - self.entity:GetPosition() self.dist = self.vNeighborDelta:Length() if (self.dist < self.radius * 2) then self.vNeighborDelta:Normalize() self.entity:GetPhysicsMode() self.entity:AddForce(self.pointforce) end end end end RegisterComponent("Flock", FlockEntity) return FlockEntity

Maybe you can build this in blender and use the result as model?

ok, solved it. In the player script I have to make a reference to the weapon index in order to trigger the function. self.weapons[self.currentweaponindex]:becomewater()

ah ok got it.. thanks .. i try .. and post again if it function. many thanks
