Re: Hearkenwold

That sounds and looks great! Looks like a tough group of creatures there. I hope my adventures will be ready for them.

Re: Slowdive's Little Daily Blog

That could be an option. I probably need to use smaller text on the buttons at least. Another option would be to use icons like I use in IBbasic...

Re: Slowdive's Little Daily Blog

When switching to skiaSharp drawText I had to reintroduce the 25 calls to draw black outline of text. I removed that and am now drawing just a single black text shifted 2 right and 2 down, then draw actual text color on top of that. So only two text draws now and I went from 4fps to 18 fps on my iPh...

Re: IB (pc only, testbed) Development updates

Yup, new forums for the new decade😂 putting a positive spin on the whole “I’m too scared to attempt to update the forum code and lose everything” thing.

The new code additions sound great. I’ll pull them into IBx once I have finished tackling more of the fps optimization inspections.

Re: Slowdive's Little Daily Blog

Let me do some more testing on my side before you try to add graphic toggles. I’m trying to track down the main culprits first by turning one feature off (and then back on after testing) at a time. I saw your notes in the code about the two resource heavy functions in the main map screen and it look...

Slowdive's Little Daily Blog

Time to kick off a new blog on the new forums. A follow up from the legacy forums: Do you experience the bad performance on regular laptos/notebooks/desktops, too (or only on phones/tablets)? Edit: And in case it happens on regular laptops/notebooks/desktops (Windows systems in this case), does norm...

Forum update

I am too scared to try and update the original forums to the newer version of phpBB (3.2). It is required as the recently installed php 7.2 on the server doesn't work with the very old phpBB 3.0 version that the old forum is using. The new version of phpBB is 3.2 on this forum.
