@syntaxed2 Thanks for the comment. Not too sure if it is common practice, but this separates the tilemap editor from the scene itself. They are both running simultaneously, so if you want, you can make adjustments to the tilemap while the scene is running and one does not affect the other unless the scene is run again.. Feel free to make any changes that work for you.

@slobbo Thank you so much! I do hope to eventually get into visual scripting as well; however, we are pretty far from that currently.

this error happen in file glad.c

@tronghoangphucnguyen2478 Hello, do you happen to have an error? Also, in the glad project, did you add the correct include directories in the properties? thanks

@TyberZann01 Wonderful catch! I have not been using the controller lately and I assumed that there was no leak. Very good to know! I will have to look into this. Thanks!

@baphometfromabove Thank you so much! We still have a long way to go, but it is really getting there now.

@abhijitleihaorambam3763 Thank you so much!

@X_Daniel466 You're welcome and thank you as well. I am currently working on the next video. It will be the Tile Details Display/panel and it will allow us to be able to change the layer of the tiles, add box colliders, animations, etc. It will probably be a big video. Hopefully by the end of next week it should be done.

@Viiner78 Good morning, do you mean that you don't have the c++ options to create the project? You may need to add those in your visual studio installer. Run Visual Studio Installer -> Click Modify -> Check the "Desktop development with C++" option -> Install Hopefully that helps.

@@JADE-iteGames Thanks, also my home screen looks completely different from yours and I can only create new solutions.

@Viiner78 You're welcome, I am glad that you can get start. I am not sure why the home screen may be different from mine. I will look into that a bit.

@@JADE-iteGames You don't have to, I got it already

@TyberZann01 Hey, thanks for the comment! I have been extremely busy these past few months. I started a new job and all that great stuff that comes with it. I plan on having another video out next week. I was prepping some code for adding in the Scene Hierarchy so we can add game objects and components. That we take a few videos to finish lol. Hopefully I should have at least one video out next week at the latest. Sorry for the delay.

@@JADE-iteGames Thx the answer, i learn lot of your videos, dont give up this is very good content.

@TyberZann01 You're welcome and thank you so much for the great comment. I am very happy that you are able to learn a lot from my videos. I do plan to continue the series and add more content along the way :)

@MD-xh3on Thank you for the wonderful comment! I do have another series where we are creating a 2D game engine using C++. There are a lot of good tidbits of c++ in those videos as well. That takes up most of my time right now. I also have some other tasks that I have been really busy with. I would love to continue this series, it is hard jumping back on a project after a long time lol. I had a friend comment on the fixing of bugs, he said that showing how to debug is very valuable to the viewers, if they like that sort of thing. Thank you so much for the support, I may find some time in the near future to continue the series. I also agree, the only way to get better is to make your own projects. Take this one and make the changes that you would like to see. Break it, fix it and go from there.

@KA-zd4sn That is a great question. I have never done instancing for opengl yet, I should try messing around and see what I can come up with. Here is some good information on that if you like: learnopengl.com/Advanced-OpenGL/Instancing

@@JADE-iteGames good article. I am reading it now

@KA-zd4sn Awesome! Let me know what you come up with! I have been so busy with other things; however, I should definitely be using better techniques if they are available.

@aideannell4778 Hello, thank you for your great comment. Without seeing your code I can only guess at what the issue might be. When you are creating your StateMachine, are you passing in arguments? I believe we are doing this in the Game class. try for the state machine. m_pStateMachine = std::make_unique<StateMachine>(); // No arguments here. The GameState needs arguements sent in. The CTOR is GameState(Console& console, Keyboard& keyboard, StateMachine& stateMachine); So we need something like this m_pStateMachine->PushState(std::make_unique<GameState>(*m_pConsole, *m_pKeyboard, *m_pStateMachine)); Hopefully that helps.

@KA-zd4sn Thank you for the tip. It is definitely needed. I wish it was a something that we could automatically format. Like a clang.format write inside namespace lol.

@KA-zd4sn Thank you. I really like to use ECS and entt. Entt is very easy to understand and use.

@KA-zd4sn Thank you!

@aideannell4778 Good morning, The OnKeyUp(int key) function should have this: void Keyboard::OnKeyUp(int key) { // Check to see if the key is defined if (key >= KEY_LAST) { TRPG_ERROR("[" + std::to_string(key) + "] - Is not defined!"); return; } m_Keys[key].Update(false); } For the Escape, are you calling the m_pKeyboard->Update() inside of Game::Update()?

@JADE-iteGames it worked! Thank you, and good morning! I love this series so much, you know what you're doing, and you explain things pretty well

@aideannell4778 That's wonderful that you got it to work! Thank you as well.

@aideannell4778 Thanks, I agree. In these videos the code is rather small. My newer videos I increase the size.

@baphometfromabove nfd is a good choice. I used it in my BinConverter project; however, I have just started dabbling with the tinyfiledialogs lib. You can get it from vcpkg and it is very easy to use as well. I created a simple c++ wrapper for it and it might be the way to go. The only reason I like it more is, it allows you to change the title for some dialogs if desired.

@@JADE-iteGames I'll check it. User experience is important too.

@@JADE-iteGames Thanks man. Love ya!

@gluax7553 Hello, I don't think it would be a size issue. The size of the texture I was using is 512 x 512. It might be an issue with the shaders or the possibly the vertex attributes. Any png should work in theory. Would you be able to post your code?

@@JADE-iteGames Oh thanks for the quick response! I just managed to figure it out. I had `glBindVertexArray` called before the second Vertex Attribute Pointer and that caused a silent error, till I printed out the GL error and got its code.

@gluax7553 That's Awesome! I am glad you figured it out.

@mynameisjooo22 Thank you so much! It should be a good one! Make sure you try our the challenge.

@w4rd3nclyffe74 Thank you so much! What I recommend is getting somewhat familiar with C++ first. I do tend to gloss over some concepts. I was thinking about making a C++ series to go hand and hand with the game engine series. I also have a text RPG series that does a console app in c++. I haven't gotten around to finishing that yet because this series and work; however, that one does not do any graphics. You could try the series out and if you have any questions about something that I may have not gone over, don't hesitate to ask. I may be able to elaborate more on the topic. Another thing is to try all of the challenges that may be proposed. That allows you to take what you have learned and see if you can implement things on your own. Mess around with the code, change things you don't like to be the way you want them to be. Break the code and find your way back to a working project again. The worst thing that could happen is you wait for the next video to explain it or ask for help. I am all about getting better and learning everyday as well. I might not do something the right way or make mistakes and that's ok, because that's how we learn.

@@JADE-iteGames Thank You so much for responding! yes i agree i definitely should just learn the prerequisites fully before diving into an enormous project. I already did a couple of c++ projects and i thought maybe i could check out your text based rpg too. might still just start watching everything in this game engine series from the very beginning and go along with learning whatever comes up that i don't know about. that being said I will definitely check out every single video you make from now on, there's so many things to be learned in this channel. keep up the great work!

@w4rd3nclyffe74 Thank you so much! I definitely will keep working on the videos. I find I learn more from doing the videos as well. There are also some great devs and contributors in the community that have also helped with the project. So much good information on UA-cam regarding programming, lots of other great devs to learn from as well.

@virgilecharton698 Thank you so much! I am currently spending most of my time working on the game engine series; however, I am doing a refactor for the Selector class so we can support pages and scrolling. There should be a video for that coming eventually.

@minecraftgigachad9368 That is a great question. I think a way that you could do that would be to keep track of what page you are currently on and then have a max number of rows that you want for that page. The max number of rows * the number of columns is how many items you would want to display max for the page. When doing the draw function for the selector, you would need to skip any items that are not within the max rows per page * page number range. That way you are only drawing the items for that page. Give that a shot and see what you can come up with. I might try to see if I can do the same. you could also make it scroll. Instead of doing pages. It would be something similar.

@@JADE-iteGames I’ll try both the scroll and page cases. If they turn out well, I’ll share

@@Brugosovi Awesome! I can't wait to see what you come up with!

@minecraftgigachad9368 I have created a new issue on the repo that has some of the things that will be needed. Feel free to add more as comments and talk there about the new selector page issue/enhancement. github.com/dwjclark11/TextRPG/issues/5

@@JADE-iteGames I don’t use GitHub much, so I just attached a zip with my first implementation of a “SelectorPages” class to a comment on the issue.

@alexandryuschenko333­4 Thank you!

@francescoesposito1583 Thank you

@minecraftgigachad9368 This was a great catch, thank you! This should now be fixed in the github repo as well.

@lure3601 That is wonderful! I am glad that they have helped.

@MarcoLittleyan That is a great idea; however, I do not have a mac, so I would not be able to test that. That might be something I add in the future though.

@@JADE-iteGames Thanks for the info. I will try to implement it myself.

@MarcoLittleyan Awesome, if you are able to get it to work with mac, maybe do a PR for the repo. Other mac users may be able to benefit from that. We would still have to make sure the other OSs work though. Thanks

@@JADE-iteGames With pleasure.

@IntheFishtank Thanks for that, I have made the change. It should be fixed in the next video.

@IntheFishtank I have probably done that in a few other places as well. I will go over the code to ensure those are taken care of. Thanks

@GarrethandPipa Thanks I will definitely give this a try today.

@hades8131 Thank you so much. I was thinking about do some side videos where we are using unreal engine or going over games, or playing some games as well. I was also thinking of doing a c++ series. This series assumes that people have a decent understanding of c++, so maybe a companion series with c++ would be good as well.

@@JADE-iteGames yes great idea.

@unLinuxeroMas That is a great question and can be very tricky. I believe a programmer needs to know how to create applications, knows how to troubleshoot and debug programs, have a deep love for learning, a decent understanding of Data structures and algorithms, and in my personal experience, try to get really good in one programming language. Whatever language that is, work on it, become as good as you can in that language. After that, other languages will be easier. If you are self-taught, make sure you are not just following lessons/tutorials, make sure to mess with the code outside of the lessons. Break the code, make changes, add in your own flair. That is the real way to learn. Try to redo the lessons from scratch, and if you miss something watch the lesson again. Constantly be learning and growing because it is better to be ready for an opportunity and not have one, than have an opportunity and not be ready for it. There are many ways to answer this question that may work better for you; however, this is what was working for me. Thanks and keep coding.

@0nizukatn453 Thank you so much! I definitely will!

@el-3omda476 Thank you so much! I hope so as well. I enjoy making the videos and feel like I am getting a lot better at making content.

@unLinuxeroMas yes we can now run the engine on linux!! Thanks to the added CMake support by skaarj1989. I just made a video today, so I will have to make sure it still works lol.

@unLinuxeroMas Just tested the current master and it builds successfully on Ubuntu 24.

@@JADE-iteGames noice

@IntheFishtank very nice catch. The virtual here would be implied because it is virtual in the base. Since we are not doing anything with the dtor, we could probably remove it. Thanks I will add the virtual to the main project.

@IntheFishtank Actually, it looks like it was not virtual in the base Batcher class. I have made the change and should be in the next push. Thanks.

@@JADE-iteGames Thanks to you ;) This series is amazing and gold for beginners, I guess you struggled a bit to come to this point with that clarity. i'am also working on a batch renderer that I wish to optimize... I'm trying to avoid resubmitting all the vertices to the GPU at each frame, meaning keeping track of existing meshes that didn't get dirty in between... keeping in mind that new mesh could be created and other could be destroyed... so thinking about an optimized strategy about updating the VBOs data...

@IntheFishtank Thank you for your kind words! That sounds like a great idea! Let me know what you come up with! Soon we will be adding in some needed profiling tools. So that should help as well.

@baphometfromabove That is wonderful! Let me know how it goes.

@baphometfromabove Thanks, this is also a great question. I have not done the visual scripting stuff yet myself; however, this is something that I do want to get into as well. Here are a couple links that might help using ImGui github.com/thedmd/imgui-node-editor, github.com/rokups/ImNodes, github.com/Nelarius/imnodes. These can help you get an understanding of what we would need to do to accomplish this. There are so many great resources out there from people that are way smarter than me lol. I hope to get into that as well some day; however, we still have a lot to do before we get to that. Maybe I will do a simple test project to see If I can get those working.

@@JADE-iteGames Thank you so much. And yes it is early for me as well. I will continue to follow your videos.

@Zhilajoon The Pikuma 2D Game engine course is a great course. I took it a while ago and created a tilemap editor for it. Being able to render into multiple windows is actually something I would like to add to the Tilemap editor. I believe the easiest way would be to use a Framebuffer. I have not done it with just SDL; however, I believe that it is doable. This game engine uses opengl and it is much easier to use framebuffers and just render the scene to a texture. I have not used mac before, but a quick google search shows that you can use OpenGl up to 4.1; however, it is deprecated and will probably be removed from mac in the future. I would suggest to look into vulkan or metal as rendering alternatives. Or lookup how to render your scene to a SDL_Framebuffer. Hopefully that helps.

@@JADE-iteGames thanks for taking the time to respond! I did manage to get the game and the demo window to render but have some other issues/crashes to take care of. I'll probably go through your videos and continue with the pikuma engine in parallel. I'm hoping to gain a better understanding of how all of these graphics libraries actually work together.

@Zhilajoon That sounds like a great idea. I will be putting a new video out today or tomorrow. This video will be adding stop/play buttons for the scene so it is not loaded right away, also loading textures from memory as well. Good luck with the pikuma course, it is great.

@seannolan2120 You're welcome! Glad it helps.

@baphometfromabove You're welcome and thank you for the great comment. It makes me happy that these videos help others. I should have another one out in the next couple of days.

@arachnid5669 Thank you! I just like how ECS works; however, it is not necessary to use for effective scripting with lua. You just want to make sure that any user types you need are bound and you should be good to go.

Lol Thanks buddy!

@tomahawkov You're welcome and thank you. The video was actually closer to three hours. Lot's of editing etc. But it was pretty fun.

I am still trying to get used to CMake compared to the Visual Studio sln. So I stumble a little bit on that front. lol.
