This is great news. I'll be downloading and testing the .NET version 2.0 RC tonight. I'll probably use it in my current project.

Thanks Laurent

Do you want a "SFML and Ruby" tutorial? In case you do what do you want it to contain?

It's up to you. If you feel like Ruby users would need a tutorial then I can put one there, but you can also create your own website, or just put an HTML doc file in rbSFML packages, or nothing at all.

I have an issue, even if it's not a big deal. And maybe it's just due to my messy installation of SMFL.

When I launch the tutorial example :
Code: [Select]
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main()
{
    sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(300, 200), "SFML works!");
    sf::Text text("Hello SFML");

    while (window.isOpen())
    {
        sf::Event event;
        while (window.pollEvent(event))
        {
            if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
                window.close();
        }

        window.clear();
        window.draw(text);
        window.display();
    }

    return 0;
}

I get a run-time error. The window appears properly and the text is well displayed. But when I close the window, I get a segfault error (-1073741823). Why is that ?
I'm on Windows 7 64-bits, and compile with gcc 4.6.something.

Thx and nice job!

Hi Laurent! I know this thread is for issues with 2.0, but I was wondering if this version 'fixes' the 'fps issues'  of 1.6?

Thank you.

I'm not sure it's the same. I launched the do-not-crash example, and it crashes :)

Code: [Select]
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main() {

sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(300, 200), "SFML works!");

sf::Font fnt;
fnt.loadFromFile("C:/Windows/Fonts/ARABTYPE.ttf");

sf::Text text("Hello SFML");
text.setFont(fnt);

while (window.isOpen())
{
sf::Event event;
while (window.pollEvent(event))
{
if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
window.close();
}

window.clear();
window.draw(text);
window.display();
}

return 0;
}

Nevertheless, if I comment some lines, it works (if I don't draw the text)
Code: [Select]
#include <SFML/Graphics.hpp>

int main() {

sf::RenderWindow window(sf::VideoMode(300, 200), "SFML works!");

sf::Font fnt;
fnt.loadFromFile("C:/Windows/Fonts/ARABTYPE.ttf");

// sf::Text text("Hello SFML");
// text.setFont(fnt);

while (window.isOpen())
{
sf::Event event;
while (window.pollEvent(event))
{
if (event.type == sf::Event::Closed)
window.close();
}

window.clear();
// window.draw(text);
window.display();
}

return 0;
}

I will investigate further when I have time. Btw I don't know whether this is the right place to talk about this, is it ?

What FPS issue?

What's important with the no-crash code is that it assigns the text's font in the constructor, so that the default font never gets instanciated. Your code doesn't do that.

The ones with .SetFramerateLimit(). My games vary a lot in some builds.

My bad. I called the constructor with which you can load a font, and now it works perfectly fine. I guess it's the same problem then.

I'm not aware of any problem with that. Would you mind pointing me to the forum thread or issue that discusses it?

You should try SFML 2, the implementation of timing functions have changed and is supposed to be more reliable.
http://en.sfml-dev.org/forums/index.php?topic=6854.0
Sorry, I guess I read this out of context.

The thing is, if I set the frame-limit to 60, I get different fps on different computers (below 60 in some), yet if I don't specify a limit, the fps goes 80's in all comps. Also, in some instances on my fastest comp, my fps goes up to 100's regardless of set frame-limit.

Maybe I'm running old version of 1.6? Is the one on http://www.sfml-dev.org/download.php the latest?
I'm using Code::Blocks.

There is only one version of SFML 1.6 -- otherwise they would have different numbers ;)
