PureGDK (even thought it looked interesting at first sight) is far too slow, fat and unelegant to be used right now. Hopefully you'll work on it and we'll see some improvement.
Please be specific when you say "slow", "fat", and "unelegant".

Kelebrindae has already demonstrated that PureGDK is the fastest 3D solution available for PureBasic.

According to Kelebrindae's demo, when many objects are on the screen at once performance degraded unlike any of the other demos. I believe that this might be due to a discrepancy which I've already said that I'll look into once I can see the source code.

As I've already explained: DBP is larger in comparison to Dreammotion and PureBasic but this is for a reason. PureBasic uses static linking while Dreammotion and DBP uses DLLs. DBP is plugin-based which will make it inherently larger than a single-library engine but at the same time it is infinitely more expandable.
But, right now PureGDK is not a good product since free product overrun it.
DBP isn't limited to making a couple of colored boxes fly across the screen. Dreammotion can do a lot of things but it's years away from being as feature-rich as DBP. 3D is just the first step in creating a complete game engine.

I'd love to talk pros and cons about PureGDK vs other PureBasic solutions but many of the arguments I've heard have been hardly worth discussion.

Woah, guy! Don't you think you're a little harsh, here ? :shock:
Please show a little respect for the huge amount of work Mistrel has put in his product.

Yes, perhaps PureGDK is a slower than Dreammotion on this test (althought I've got different results on my PC: in windowed mode, 512 objects => 15-25 FPS with Dreammotion, versus 50-75 FPS with PureGDK. my specs: XP SP2, P4 3 Ghz, Intel 910 GPU => without a powerful GPU, it seems that PureGDK is much faster than Dreammotion).

But keep in mind that this test only calls very basic 3D functionnalities; in a full-fledged 3D app (layered textures, collisions, shaders, etc..), the results could be different.
Also, there's a lot of things that Dreammotion can't do yet. Example: if you look closely, you'll notice that the cubes aren't transparent for all others => there's no automatic "Z-sorting" for alphablended objects: they are always rendered in the order in which they've been created; you can see an object through another one only if the latter has been created first.

Besides, maybe Dreammotion and PureGDK are not targeted at the same audience. Take a look at the sources: PureGDK code is much simpler to understand for a novice; a lot of things are automated/provided (Wrapvalue and Curvevalue, to say the least).
If you are some code guru and you look for speed, go for C++ and tap directly into the Direct3D or OpenGL API. But if (like me) you are just a moderately skilled programmer and/or have only 1-2 hours a day left in your schedule after work and the kids' bedtime, PureGDK is perfect for the job.
See ? Please, don't say it "is not a good product"; just say it doesn't fit your (own personnal) needs. :wink:

@Mistrel
dbDisableObjectZWrite() and dbStatistic(): oh yes, you're right. I guess I didn't look closely enough at the commands list.
And sorry, lad: I didn't mean those demos to be an argument against you. :oops:

Here are the sources (they probably can be optimized):

On the contrary, Kelebrindae. I think you're demo has done a great job comparing the basic features of these three engines. You've also brought with you some strong arguments in PureGDK's favor.

I also believe that you have the potential to be a strong advocate for PureGDK on the French forums. It's going to be an uphill battle for PureGDK on all fronts until it gains some popularity so the more supporters it has the better. :)
Kelebrindae wrote:dbDisableObjectZWrite() and dbStatistic(): oh yes, you're right. I guess I didn't look closely enough at the commands list.
The IDE has a problem sometimes recognizing commands for code hints and case-correction from user libraries. Freak has said that this is due to the compiler not being loaded correctly. Restarting it by going to Compiler -> Restart Compiler usually fixes it for me.

Please be specific when you say "slow", "fat", and "unelegant".
Slow > on this test at least, it's slower than dreammotion. Though Kelebrindae has totally different result. My specs: QX6600 + 8800GTX.
Fat > told ya, I don't care about that, but it's bigger than both dreammotion and pure native functions (ahah).
inelegant > I really dislike the cached dll method.
DBP isn't limited to making a couple of colored boxes fly across the screen. Dreammotion can do a lot of things but it's years away from being as feature-rich as DBP. 3D is just the first step in creating a complete game engine.
True. Still, I don't own a DBp licence anymore (it was a cool gift for my little cousin), and I can't do any test by my own. Even if it's true that one demo is not enough to compare performances, I can't do anything better. The cool part of PureGDK is the easiness to use (assuming it's like DBp), still performances look kinda bad for a first Comparison.
Woah, guy! Don't you think you're a little harsh, here ?
Yeah, as you can read, I'm not a fluently english speaker and it's hard for me use the exact meaning I'd like. Sry about that.

Edit:
I would add, I'm happy to see that some users care about games. Even if I know I won't make any (I more of a player than a gamemaker), PB lack of those command set to make a game.

>inelegant > I really dislike the cached dll method.

Me too, so I can't keep intension to test it further.

BTW, the updated SDK stll doesn't work on my 2 test machine yesterday.

As to Slow/Fat, it's TGC/Lee Bamber's fault, not Mustrel's, I think TGC will do the trick selling anyhing even it's crap.

BTW.....

1.I take this PGDK as good because it's possible to bring up PureBasic sale, but to SDK things I have many better choice(want a Selene warpper? I'm making one)

2.An updated OGRE engine is due in a few minor version, don't know good or bad yet.

3.Yes, thinkgs like Dreamotion/Irrlicht/Selene give you more control over your project a it's completely open-sources

4.The nature of non-OOP make PB 3D Game Development over complex, it can still be done but taking too much time, as well as DBP/B3D they're quick, but for mid-to-big scale games it's too much work.

5.Actual "problem" for a 3D Game is the media/scene, hiring an artist is pretty expensive, buying media pack are pants, do it yourself is wasting time.

I've tested PureGDK on a range of configurations and cannot reproduce this. There have also been received no other reports of this behavior.

I have already expressed my interest in helping you solve this problem if you wish to make the time.
yoxola wrote:>inelegant > I really dislike the cached dll method.

I've heard this several times already. The DBP engine is built upon plugins, each which may have dependencies. The DBP compiler resolves these dependencies at compile-time for you and caches them in the exe.

What advantage would it be to resolve these dependencies yourself and how would you expect it to work?

yoxola wrote:1.I take this PGDK as good because it's possible to bring up PureBasic sale, but to SDK things I have many better choice(want a Selene warpper? I'm making one)
Would you be specific about what makes these other engines "better"?

I've looked at Selene but all of the information is in Japanese. Is there anything in English?
yoxola wrote:Yes, thinkgs like Dreamotion/Irrlicht/Selene give you more control over your project a it's completely open-sources.
"More control" isn't always what people want. You can already have more control by writing an engine yourself using DirectX in C++ or even PureBasic! DarkBasic Professional as a game engine provides you with everything you need right out of the box. Why reinvent the wheel?

If you really want more control DBP provides source code for its global structures and .dbo format and exposes several DirectX 9 interfaces. DBP itself is not open-source but there is more than enough exposed for you to extend it with your own native DirectX programming.

There's no reason someone can't make an OOP wrapper for PureGDK. That's basically what DarkGDK.NET is to DarkGDK. I also think the entire Linux\Unix community would disagree that you need an OO language for developing something on a large scale. :)

After a few expreirnce with the beta PGDK and watching your opinions, I don't think it's even wotrh continuing trying it, especially from your comments I think we're just trying to ignore the problem of DBP itself.

Overall, PGDK doesn't actually break any DBPro limits and it might be more expensive the DBP is, I had PurePlugin, a Plugin Framework to let you write Plugin with PB, which 100% work on my machine.

I must admit DBP is the worst product TGC/Bamber ever created, however it very stong advertised and mislead many people. When a Plugin/SDK is out, I just think TGC will insanely advertise it for money

Btw, I have a casual game contract in the making, so I don't want to wet my hands with PGDK further, and I'll quit commeting on this product as I'm actualyl focusing on easier and more stable choice.

I'd think I'll buy a copy of PGDK initially, but I don't think it's woth buying anymore.

My opinion is my opinion. However I have stated several facts to dispute many of the broad claims made by people on this forum. I have no problem arguing over the merits of DBP and another engine if you would like to bring a topic to the table.

DBP has supported plugin authors from the beginning. Because DBP is based on plugins talking to other plugins there is no SDK per-se. You simply write a plugin that talks to other plugins. The downside is that your executables will be larger but the advantage is that each author does not need to distribute their own SDK for you to talk to their plugin.

PureGDK.com's former host (DreamHost) has not been able to provide reliable service. I'm moving the domain to a GoDaddy as the new hosting service. All files from this domain will be offline until the move is completed.

The latest beta (0.4.13) broke plugin support when certain files were changed to support the new thread safe subsystem. This has been fixed for the next beta.

Posted: Thu Apr 10, 2008 10:43 pm

Everything is up and running and the website appears to be fully operational. Please report any problems to support@puregdk.com.

Here is an example from the Dark Physics expansion pack compiled under PureGDK. http://puregdk.com/files/DarkPhysics-Bouyancy.zip

Dark Physics requires that you have the PhysX runtime library installed for it to function properly. This can be downloaded from Ageia's website http://www.ageia.com/drivers/drivers.html.

The command list on PureGDK.com is still available but should not be considered as the most up to date list of PureGDK commands. PureGDK now comes with a help file that will install into your PureBasic 'Help' folder. It includes entries and cross-references for the entire DarkBasic core libraries and some additional articles as well. The new help file is command-sensitive and will load the appropriate page when using F1 to bring up help on a selected command in the IDE.

There is also a new beta:
0.4.14b - April. 10, 2008 Changelog:

* Fixed a bug where dbPickScreen() would cause a runtime error in rare cases.
* Fixed a bug where dbCurrentCamera() would cause a runtime error in rare cases.
* Fixed a bug where dbGetVertexDataVertexCount() expected a parameter where it should have expected none.
* Fixed a bug where dbGetVertexDataVertexCount(), dbGetVertexDataIndexCount(), and dbGetIndexData() would fail to return a value when compiling without the debugger.
* Fixed a bug where the camera commands would use the wrong camera after a new camera had been set and if one was not specified as a parameter.

* The following commands are obsolete and have been removed:
dbSetGamma()
dbSetGraphicsCard()
dBSetWindowOn()
dbFastSync()
dbSyncSleep()
dbSyncOff()
dbSyncOn()
dbLoadCDMusic()
dbCDTrackCount()

* The following commands have been renamed:
dbWriteToClipboard(Strings.s) -> dbSetClipboard(String.s)
dbNetGameExists() -> dbNetGameExist()
dbNetMessageExists() -> dbNetMessageExist()

* Added the undocumented command dbSetCameraClip()

* The following commands broke from the 0.4.13 thread safe update and have been fixed:
dbSetWindowSize()

* Plugin support was broken for the 0.4.13 thread safe update and has been fixed in this release.

* dbSetDisplayMode() now adds the the size of the window frame to the size of the new resolution when changing the shape of the window.

* Fixed a bug where the DarkBasic render window did not receive focus when a parent window ID was no specified.
* Fixed a special-case where the GDK compiler would not recursively parse include files. The GDK compiler cannot parse macro variations of IncludeFile and XIncludeFile.
* Fixed a bug where the GDK compiler would not be able to parse an include that used certain types of relative directories e.g. "../Dir".

* Runtime errors will now be reported at the correct line when using GetErrorLineNR(). dbGetErrorLineNumber() is now obsolete.

* PureGDK will now throw a useful error if OpenDBWnd is called more than once at runtime.
* Fixed a bug where the executable would crash if a PureGDK command was called before OpenDBWnd when compiling with the debugger.

* The PureGDK installer will now check for the existence of all necessary DarkBasic Professional components or the installation will fail. DBP components are now copied to the PureGDK installation directory. PureGDK no longer uses the root directory of the DarkBasic Professional installation when compiling. If your project uses plugins they must be copied to the PureGDK plugins folder to compile.

After installing 0.14b i had to reactivate dbpro, is this normal?

After compiling the water example i get the following error:

"Attempted use a command from dependency list Lib-P_DarkPhysics.d but the library was not found"

I have the newest Physic`s drivers installed. Your water.exe works fine.
