two windows each with a game loop on their own thread

how does that look for syntax?

variable names are shit. ignore them. :P

with this method, if you only have one window, you can just do...

IWindow window = Engine.CreateWindow("test", 640, 480);
window.Update += window_Update;
window.Run();

and most people will probably take that approach

@IcyDefiance seems ok

I didn't see anything wrong with the lambda version either :P

I'd change "Update" to "OnUpdate" or something like that, though

ah right, probably should

and there were other problems with the lambda version. it flat out didn't work. XD

and the best thing is, this approach also allows the XNA and OpenTK approach of inheriting from window and instantiating it from another file.

so people used to that can do things that way too

except I'll have to expose a class for that instead of an interface...

I'll come back to that one

what are you making, anyway?

new engine. I scrapped my ECS thing and I'm taking a different approach now.

cool

I wanted this one to support multiple windows, just for the heck of it, and it took me a couple days to figure out how to do that

is it multiplatform?

should be. once I get something drawing I'll probably create a linux vm and test it there.

sounds cool

I'm also coding it in such a way to support both OpenGL and DirectX, and multiple versions of each, but I'll only actually implement OpenGL 4.something at first

are you just wrapping opentk gamewindow in your window or are you doing something else?

I went a little lower level and wrapped NativeWindow and a GraphicsContext separately

GameWindow inherits from NativeWindow iirc... something like that anyway

okay, so you're the go-to guy when I'll start working on that stuff :D

if by go-to guy, you mean a guy who will confidently mislead you, then yeah probably :P

:D

now to figure out why the windows appear to be locked up, even though they're drawing and updating fine... like I'm getting a waiting cursor when I mouse over them, and I can't drag them around or anything.

this new game "Evolve", that got to beta (or alpha? dunnolol) today, appeared in my steam games list

It seems to cost 50€ and I'm sure I didn't purchase it

I want someone to blame >:(

> 4 friends already own this game

steam does that sometimes, usually as a free trial. it'll probably just disappear after a while.

did everyone get it automatically or what?

I'm confused

probably. the trials are usually for everyone.

yeah

it's not saying it's a trial or anything :(

mhm. same thing has happened to me with a few other games.

if it disappears in a week, you know that's what it was. if not, hey, free game.

that and the clunky interface are my two biggest annoyances with steam. oh, and how the store's video player glitches out when the steam window doesn't have focus.

not very big annoyances

does any one know a simple way for my function at line 24 to take into account that the shape is an ellipse rather than a perfect circle here: jsfiddle.net/0vx8u3tb

thanks
