Yes, it is the case. But it doesn't even matter, simulation frequency could be 60 Hz as well. But still, I have no guarantee that the rendering frequency will be 60 Hz, especially in case of disabled VSYNC. The question is: If I simulate with a fixed framerate, how do I interpolate the render frames...

Hi, I read that it is good to separate the simulation from the render cycles, which allows for a fixed dt in the simulation. This makes the simulation frames and render frames independent, so in order to achieve smooth animation you need to interpolate between two simulation frames. Now, this is the...

I'm using about 10000 sprites in my game. I have this grass texture of 256x256 px. With a size of 1 m equal to 10 px, i need to cover the area of 2 km. I think, maybe I have no performance issues because 99% of the sprites are being "drawn" outside the visible window, so the GPU automatica...

TCP is one thing, the other this is that default chunk/packet size is 8 KB, so you have to split your string into pieces, send each piece and then put them back together. not so simple...

I have tried pressing keyboard buttons, mouse buttons, waiting 12 HOURS, still nothing. PLEASE help! Haha, 12 hours! :D I got bored after 2 ;). No but seriously, I've been in the same spot as you, pretty frustrating. Don't worry, everything is working. The pig is a demo, which is displayed if you d...

To be fair, you'd usually store them as double precision floats, rather than single precision ones (since all numbers in Lua are doubles), taking up 8 bytes. OK I see. Well, I found a very nice library called Luabins: https://github.com/agladysh/luabins However, it is not pure Lua, it contains some...

I think we didn't understand each other. I mean a binary serializer. Let's say, the string representation of the number PI is "3.14159265" (here it's 10 bytes). In a binary form, it will contain only 4 bytes. A binary serializer would be particularly useful in sending packets over the netw...

I also made a script that performs this operation for you. You can find it, along with all necessary documentation here . Lafolie, would you happen to know a pure-lua binary serializer? I need that for sending packets over the network. I need the data to be packed, floats not to cover 20 chars etc.

Hey Ubermann, in my game I'm using Serpent serializer: https://github.com/pkulchenko/serpent For settings I'm using a string that I'm filling with variables using string.format: str = [[ function applySettings(s) width = %d height = %d player = %q end ]] file = str.format(width, height, player) love...

pattern, repeat = love.graphics.getLineStipple( ) Depreciated in Love 8.0! Bummer. Yes, it's deprecated. I was thinking about drawing a stencil in a comb-shaped line, then just draw a curve on it. it means only drawing 2 lines, one on which is a stencil. The problem is to calculate the coords for t...
