texture

I'm testing my project on my Android tablet, and I noticed that if I minimize the project to go to the home screen, then pull it back up again, then gpu_set_texrepeat gets set to false, or at least it appears to. I have 3D elements drawn using the buffer that use textures outside of the 0-1 UV...

The scribble is meant to be a cheer emote. Basically, I save the cheer emote as a real number in an INI file, then read that number and set the player's emote sprite as that number. However when adding new sprites, textures get mixed up and so the number actually correlates to the scribble now...

I wonder what format the pointer and content we got with surface_get_texture. I think it is in openGL format since we can send it directly to shaders. The reason I'm asking this is that I can't get the result I want when I send it as a pointer to the options to get directx texture or OpenGL...

Hello all, despite learning so much I am still no doubt a noob. SO I have a shop in my game that lets players buy upgrades, When buying, Is texture swapping is the best choice for my game? The problem is this creates a lot of synarios. For eg, if I have helmet, chest guard and shield I must...

For example, if you wanted to tint/change the game environment, you could redraw all the sprites in their new form directly to the texture page, rather than doing it in real time every step using a shader or even image blend. I'm sure this could lead to other problems, similar to the problems...

I want to know how safe it is to use 4096x4096 for android and ios devices? In 2021 what percentage of devices don't support this size?

Hi All, I'm pretty new to shaders, and relatively new to coding (this is my first game) so this may be really simple to solve. Basically, I'm making a top down space combat game (think asteroids type movement), where one of the ships can produce a "Gravity Wave". I want this effect to be...

This is more a theoretical question, no code has been written down yet. Let's assume I want to create a dynamic environment and I want to use vertex buffers to draw things so I will be able to use vertex shaders to create some effects. Of course there is going to be a need to have many different...

good morning community, I have a question I am optimizing a great project for mobile devices, I have exported to YYC and I have had good performance on high-end and mid-range and low-end devices I have had problems, so I have optimized as much as possible ... At the moment I started with the...

I'm working on a game right now that I want to be a simple 3D platformer, using cubes/prisms made from vertex buffers for the terrain. My problem is the way I want to texture the terrain differs based on how the terrain is shaped. Something like this below: I understand I might not be able...

Hello! Once again I got some troubles with GMS and still do not understad it, maybe because I'm still new to it. What do I have: 1) A 256x256 sprite called spr_moon which has the following checkboxes set to true: tile (both horiz and vert), separate texture page. 2) I'm drawing a textured...

Hello, So I am working on an Android game on GMS2, and the volume of sprites I am going to use is pretty large (> 100MB). I know how texture pages work, and how to optimize them to avoid too many swaps. However, considering that Google Play limits application file size (to about 50 or 100MB...

So one of the biggest questions I have in my game is about how I should optimize my texture pages. Each card in the game has a 600x600 px piece of artwork. As of now, I have just been throwing all of them into a texture group and calling it good enough. My texture page sizes are 4096x4096 so...

I have a shader that simply draws a texture over top of the sprite that calls it. It works perfectly when the dimensions of the sprite are a multiple of two. 32x32, 64x128, etc. If they're not then the overlay texture gets stretched in a weird way. I believe the problem lies solely in my shader...

Hi guys, Can anyone tell me how many texture pages is not too many for android? Or how many texture swaps in debug overlay? Currently my android game has 7-8 texture pages per level each 2048*2048. Im afraid its too many or too big to work fine on mediocre and low-end devices. Any help is...

Hi experts I am experimenting with the possibility of using normal map textures to enhance the look and feel of my sprites. So I created tree objects - a circle, a square and a star. l of them rotate in Step event. Also I use a custom shader to use the normal maps, which I prepare it in...

Created with Gamemaker. First created in March 2019, Version 1.287 is fully developed to it's limits. Now working on version 2.0 to be ready for Summer 2020. Featured on the 80LV webpage: https://80.lv/articles/hair-strand-designer/ Hair Strand Designer is a tool that creates hair strands in...

I have a dll that uses directx11 and I wanted to get a texture (sprite_get_texture, surface_get_texture, ...) as an ID3D11ShaderResourceView so that it can be manipulated on the dll side. Is this possible? I thought those functions gave us pointers to a directx resource or are they a local...

There is function called texture_set_interpolation but there is no such function that checks its value, like texture_get_interpolation. How to get current interpolation?

Hello there! I have encountered this problem and after reading here and there, I still don't know what solutions I can apply to the following situation: -It is normal that when working on a project for HTML5 there is a texture problem where all the images appear wrongly. This is solved by...
