I'm attempting to implement a simple x,y display for the mouse and x,y,z for the camera, but I cannot get any text display to work. I'm using the context::DrawText() command, I've attempted drawing the text before the world and vice versa to see if that was the issue, but that didn't work either. The documentation example doesn't use any 3d rendering in the demo code, so I have no idea if I'm rendering everything in the correct order. Here is a copy of the app loop I was testing with //Close the window to end the program if (window->Closed()) return false; //Press escape to end freelook mode if (window->KeyHit(Key::Escape)) { if (!freelookmode) return false; freelookmode = false; window->ShowMouse(); } if (freelookmode) { //Keyboard movement float strafe = (window->KeyDown(Key:) - window->KeyDown(Key::A))*Leadwerks::Time::GetSpeed() * 0.05; float move = (window->KeyDown(Key::W) - window->KeyDown(Key::S))*Leadwerks::Time::GetSpeed() * 0.05; camera->Move(strafe, 0, move); //Get the mouse movement float sx = context->GetWidth() / 2; float sy = context->GetHeight() / 2; Vec3 mouseposition = window->GetMousePosition(); float dx = mouseposition.x - sx; float dy = mouseposition.y - sy; //Adjust and set the camera rotation camerarotation.x += dy / 10.0; camerarotation.y += dx / 10.0; camera->SetRotation(camerarotation); //Move the mouse to the center of the screen window->SetMousePosition(sx, sy); } context->SetColor(0, 0, 0); context->Clear(); //Draw some centered text on the screen std::string text = "Leadwerks"; Font* font = context->GetFont(); int x = context->GetWidth() / 2; int y = context->GetHeight() / 2; x -= font->GetTextWidth(text) / 2; y -= font->GetHeight() / 2; context->SetBlendMode(Blend::Alpha); context->SetColor(1, 1, 1); context->DrawText(text, x, y); context->SetBlendMode(Blend::Solid); Leadwerks::Time::Update(); world->Update(); world->Render(); context->Sync();

Shameless bump. Waiting on a reply from Josh, should I use email instead of the website messaging?

I liked the idea of Tshirts and stickers...

I pre-ordered Leadwerks 3.1 which came with indie for steam. Now that the full version is up and running on steam(with workshop) Will I need to purchase the full version on steam in order to utilize the workshop support? Whenever I try to open my project from steam I get a "C++ template not found" error. Is there a way to get the non-steam editor to recognize workshop support or am I going to have to pay the extra $99?

How much LUA do you use with your C++? I'm trying to find a good balance between the two. How do you use LUA in your games? Also, is there a way to access LUA variables from C++?

I've managed to fix the issue by opening Visual Studio first(as admin) then opening the project file from there. Weird, but it works, opening the project from the project folder still causes the issue.

I'm having some trouble with leadwerks on my new laptop.(Surface Pro 3) The engine loads and runs just fine, but when I try and make any changes in C++ and test them out, it asks me to perform a "save as" instead of auto-saving over the file. When I attempt to save under the same name it will not allow me to, giving me an "Access denied error" I've searched on the forum and googled for this and have found nothing, anybody else had this problem?

Perhaps 2.5d would be your best option?

Do I need Leadwerks Standard in steam in order to get full steam support? Or will the standalone from the website also work the same?

The only solution that I have thought of is your second option. Because after lowering the force on the jump to where I don't pass straight through, I'm no longer travelling at a velocity that is strong enough to cause dmg.

Exactly. Hit yellow and you should jump up and into the blue. Grey is just for walking around. I expected with a jump force of 600 that hitting the blue would instantly kill me(My goal). Instead, I fly straight through and into the sky beyond.

Attached is the screenshot of the map, with current physics settings labeled for each brush.

This didn't work, i tried playing with it a bit, and still nothing. But I did notice that it is still killing me even if the force is set under 20

No I don't get hurt anymore(After commenting force dmg out). I just don't understand why going straight won't kill be but sideways will.

But if I'm still on top of the same brush I'm not colliding with anything new, and that also wouldn't explain why getting pushed straight is ok but not a different direction.
