The best thing to do is use for Windows desktop export is UWP, a side benefit is that you can also publish your game to XBox One.
-
The Chroma plugin btw is an example of how anyone (even I managed it ) can add an existing REST API as plugin so it can easily be used through all of the Gideros export platforms.
-
I also added a plugin to control Razer Chroma devices - with this you can easily display colour effects and light up keys to specific colours during your game. The example demo is in the plugin's folder. The plugin is fully documented here: ht…

More help... https://wiki.giderosmobile.com/index.php/Lua_Shaders

I've updated the help for Shaders so that it's easier to read and introduces the new Lua Shaders. The old version was far too long and needed to be broken up into different sections. https://wiki.giderosmobile.com/index.php/Writing_Shaders

Do you mean to the paste buffer? Or does a dialog appear?
-
UWP supports most of the plugins I tried. You should try ones you use (make a player) and check they work. Things that were missing (controllers, etc) were added last time. I think in-app payments are not yet working, ads have been removed for …

I've updated the XBox One help for this situation: https://wiki.giderosmobile.com/index.php/XBox_One

Ahh - I had the same issue. Look in c:\program files (x86)\microsoft visual studio\2019\community\vc\tools\msvc\ You will see a folder that is there, copy it as this name: c:\program files (x86)\microsoft visual studio\2019\community\vc\tools\msvc…

UWP export is now one of the best exports - it supports controllers, Xbox one, etc...

I would say that Vulcan would be far, far distant future - @hgy29 would know more though.
-
Also in the (distant) future, Android may move away from OpenGL towards Vulcan.
-
Just draw outside, negative coords, etc...
-
Looking good.

I've finished the plugin, it will be in the next version of Gideros. Here are the docs: https://wiki.giderosmobile.com/index.php/Chroma

@SimplesApps Done!
-
Since 2017 there has been loads (and loads and loads!) added.
-
Yes, there is a switch to allow both orientations in the Requires Plugin. It works great!
-
Ahh - I see.
-
@MoKaLux Done.
-
You could install VirtualPC on the old Mac OS with Windows 10 - You can then export to the Mac using VirtualPC running Gideros. The Windows version of Gideros can export the XCode export.
-
@Yan Done.
-
They are great ! Thanks for sharing.
-
I think it depends on the type of Windows app and who is using it.
-
@Apollo14 The video is from the early 90s (Amiga). It's surprising what you can do on a machine that's slightly less than 8Mhz and less RAM and screen resolution than it takes for a modern icon when you use assembly language. In Gideros it will …

@MadDogDean Even if you decide to use something other than Gideros fo the serious application, you should try Gideros for making Games - it's great! Plus it's just had support added for the XBox One and joypad support for HTML5 !!!
-
Yes, @hgy29 also uses Gideros for more serious applications. I don't know if Drag n Drop has even passed his mind though. He might find it useful too.
-
btw, having the program so tightly coupled to the Internet is great for copy protection. You can keep track of how many users, etc - it also allowed me to change the licence system from a one-off purchase to software as a service (they buy each ye…

@MadDogDean ReportComplete (desktop) is an evolution of 'Elementary Reports' = a traditional desktop program thats only connection to the Internet was for downloading the latest version. I renamed Elementary Reports to ReportComplete Legacy (it's s…

It's different to making a normal Win32 or MacOS program. The UI is not 'native' so the controls, buttons, windows, etc will have to be drawn by your app. This may be what you want though, it means the 'look' of your app is consistent between pla…
