You can use the negative offset, it's very unlikely than the list element header will ever change.

Awesome, thanks!

Is there a way to include the 3D DLL inside the final executable? This would be a great option. Does the 3D engine rely on any external DLLs/whatever under MacOS and Linux?

" NOTE: "Read x.b" will now read a long, as the default type will be used for the Read, and then converted to byte! "

Shouldn't be a integer ?

The new default data type is integer, right ?

Example:

Code: Select all

Global myvar

myvar should be an integer just as with 4.20 was a long.

So read should be use integer by default as well.

Yes, its a mistake in the announcement. I corrected it.

Sure it's integer as well.

Which one? Skybox and Skydome don`t run well with PB.4.30b1.
I have no problems with 4.20.

3D Demos run nicely here on a SM 3.0 Card. Windows.

@Marco
What does the console output (OGRE-Debugger) tell you on the non working examples? ( btw this concept of teh console debugger is somewhat familiar *g* )

Didnt manage to run em on a SM 1.4 Card on Linux - ill try later with a SM 4.1 Card.

Cheers,
Thalius

I´ll have to install PB4.30b1 again. I just double-clicked the files in the examples-folder. If I´m moving the mouse....strange behaviour.

Awesome update!!!

But, all the 3d demos hang, In 4.30Beta1 Linux IDE says after a short while "Compiler failed to restart" and commandline compiles and runs the demo but after 3dscreenrequester nothing happens... Ogre log has no fail message...

The installer has been changed to update over existing versions. If it does not do that then file a bugreport.

But what if you do not want that???

Just tell it to install in another folder and it will do so and leave your original installation alone.
