So it worked? You sir are a legend. That puts my mind at rest. I was literally having a mental breakdown. Thank you so much.

OMG your an absolute legend mate. Yeah I selected all possible redistributables just to cover my basis. Now I know it works I will adjust it to just theones it needs when I figure out which ones they are. Again thanks heaps mate. Out of curiosity what size GPU cpu and how much ram did you use? Is the framerate ok?

Sorry it took so long to get back to you guys. I fixed some bugs and put up a more stable lightweight build to steam. As soon as the keys are approved I will private message you guys with the keys. And thanks for helping me out.

If you guys want I will private message you guys Steam Beta keys allowing access to latest build even if its not yet approved by steam. You should be able to test it straight away.

Well I must be using the right redistributable. I made steam install all the common ones. And the game actually opens for him. The problem is the game crashing when the call to load map is made. My game creates an empty map only containing the player and then add the rest after the map is loaded.

Even publishing without the "only include option" doesn't help

So I updated the build to install redistributables wasn't sure which ones so I selected all. On a friends PC he can get into the main menu and everything works. As soon as he selects new game which loads the map it crashes. For my two computers. One I built the game on runs fine downloaded through steam. Pc number 2 (intel gpu) crashes before reaching the splashscreen. I'm not sure how to add console prints. But it has steamworks initialised. And comes packaged with a steam_api.dll.

Nah not yet. I have to resolve this before I set it as live. I am happy to give you a copy though once its fixed.

I already had Open AL and all the visual c++ redistributes installed. It still crashes on launch. You can actually use steamworks to make it install common redistributables when installing your game.

I uploaded my build to steam after using the publish as standalone in leadwerks. For some reason I can only play the game on the pc I built it on. All other computers it runs the task for the game then immediately shuts down. Is anyone able to help me?

I am having some weird issues. My game was running fine for about a week with no crashes. I haven't changed anything and now I am getting crazy gpu use in the task manager from the game. It is constantly spiking to 90+ % and the game crashes when ever I get into a fight with an enemy now. And no matter what settings I change to the options panel the FPS won't go above 30%. Even removing Shadows and water from the game does nothing to help.

GetHeight works when I system Print. SetHeight works when I system print. GetElevation works using system print. SetElevation work using system print. SetScale is the only one I can see that actually changes in game. However I could be wrong. Because I think that I might not be converting. the player:GetPosition() correctly for accessing terrain.

The only way I was able to make the code work an manipulate the terrain was with this ELPOS = self.entity:GetPosition() if window:KeyHit(Key.L) then raise = terrain:GetScale(true) terrain:SetScale(raise + 1) System:Print(raise) end But now I have to figure out how to rewrite it to do it only at my players location. And there is a bug that makes me fall through the map after terrain has be manipulated. But the only command that you can actually see the change happening is using terrain:SetScale() . Sorry for the lack of response. Been super busy prepping this project for release.

Works perfectly thanks mate.

aye thats not a bad way of doing it. Thanks mate. The whole thing is in the outback so pretty much flat terrain. With water only showing at low points. So I could definately see this working. Thanks.

I can't seem to find the code for the settings in the root section of the scene. I want to create a pick that says if collided with water, print to screen (" Press Q to collect water") and then have on press add water to inventory. But I am struggling because I can't find any documentation that allows me to reference the water object.

Thanks mate

Hi guys. I have been working on this project for a few months now and my store page went live this morning. The game itself is still going to be a work in progress even after early access release. But I just wanted to let you guys know how much I appreciate you all and all the help you guys have given me and continue to give me. So I have decided on a powered by leadwerks splash screen. And over the next few weeks when I get some time I will be adding in a special thanks to the leadwerks community screen. https://store.steampowered.com/app/898460/Outback_Survival/

Sorry I will have a crack at this again later today and post my code here.

Even if I simply use; terrain:SetScale(1,100,1) if window:KeyDown(key.PageUP) then terrain:SetHeight(512,512, 10) end Nothing Happens. On a 1024 x 1024 map this should be affecting 0,0. But there is no change. Even adding in; terrain:UpdateNormals() Time:Update() world:Update() world:Render() does nothing to help. Even if I system print the height for 0, 0 there is change but you can't physically see it in the world.

Yue that screen shot looks amazing nice work on that lighting.

I think it depends on your version of triple AAA. Triple A usually means made by a big studio. I have yet to see if there is a way to port from leadwerks to console. But for indie projects this engine works amazingly. I am currently working on an indie title for steam and love; how easy to use lua is, how easy to use leadwerks is (especially when creating custom textures and assets) and the community here is amazing (when I get stuck on some code I never have to wait more then a few days for a response). Apart from the console exporting I can't see any reason why it wouldn't be possible. But with the console porting thing I am not saying its not possible, I just haven't found a solution yet.

Its all good thanks anyway mate. I will have to just wait.

Same thing again stops the crashing but doesn't actually change anything

So doing this stopped the crashing but its still not changing the terrain elevation.
