Gaulish Gaming Banquet: editor

hesopesomeso

Even in the main editor window?

If it runs fine, then it must be something on my side, wine not playing nice :PepeHands:

In the editor itself, I was on Level 8 of XXL2 (the first boss) and it is at 13% which tbf is quite bad when the boss is quite a small level and it's already using half of a CPU core time

adrientd

if I hide scene nodes it gets to 9%

hesopesomeso

Okay that's much better than 100%! 13% is half of a CPU core time? :PogelixWeird:

hesopesomeso

I assume the vsync works fine since you've said so and tested it, but maybe the editor can't get the full 240+ needed for me? Maybe some wine performance issues...?

adrientd

And well 240 FPS is 4 times the 60 Hz of my old laptop screen :Obelul:

So that's definitely going the make the CPU more busy

hesopesomeso

Yeah, but it shouldn't eat up all the resources! It works with wine, so that's all I've wanted really! :Obelul:

Performance troubles don't matter as much. Thanks!

adrientd

Maybe there's way to optimize the editor to use less CPU usage, but not top priority. We could change such that the editor only renders when input is given, but then we lose animations like rotating bonuses.

schmeling65

Outsource the rendering to gpu?

hesopesomeso

Obviously he's doing that (SDL is)

schmeling65

is he? well then

pegperegogaucho

Outsource rendering to India, Sar! 🇮🇳

When I load CC into the XXL-Editor, and only display scene nodes with visible flag, it will take up 25% CPU, so it fully uses one core to just show models :Pauselix:

If I enable the squad drawing, it will become a slideshow

pegperegogaucho

There should be some more optimization, because if the app consumes too much resources for barely anything, people might not want to use it :Obelul:

I remember I opened another level editor for a game some time ago, written in python with some weird 3D library, and it would take up all of my CPU for nothing at all.

pegperegogaucho

Electricity isn't free, so a program should respect the user's resources

pegperegogaucho

Did you guys know, a solar panel produces as much energy in a day, as there is in a chicken nugget?

hesopesomeso

What's up with the CPU time misrepresentations :KEKW:

it's hilarious
