Hi Gman! A new version of 3impact was released today. Are there plans to update the wrapper for blitzmax?

arrays.ini - i3ImpactRunBegin()

null@example.com (Amon) — Fri, 30 Nov 2007 00:48:19 +0000

Hi! I have (as the 3impact docs suggest) created an arrays.ini file and placed it in my app folder. The reason I have created the arrays.ini file is so that I can override the default setting for 3impacts Maximum bodiesbodies count. By default it was set to 1000 but I needed to be able to create more collision couples.

When I run my app with the new settings (set to 5000 bodiesbodies) I get an unhandled exception in BlitzMax and it points to i3ImpactRunBegin().

See next post.

Problems setting up 3impact

null@example.com (Vandago) — Thu, 08 Nov 2007 15:26:08 +0000

Hi, after following the instructions perfectly from the bmx dist. package I attempted to run a demo included.

I keep getting this error:
The application failed to initalize properly (0xc0150002). Click on OK to terminate the application.

I then uninstalled everything and redid the 3impacctFull install and the bmx wrapper install again.

Same results. Any tips on what might be happening here? thanks.

The debug log reads this -

Seems to throw the error at this command in bmx -

Impartial Advice

null@example.com (H&K) — Tue, 09 Oct 2007 12:05:11 +0000

Hi,

Question, How fast is 3Impact?
I downloaded the Demo, and on simple things it had a framerate a lot less than a comparible scene in B3D with EasyTok (Felixs' Tokamak wrapper).

I understand that the main sales pitch of 3Imapct is its simplicity, but that goes out the window if the potential Buyee is comfortable enough to use PhysX or Newton. So as youve done work with both 3Impact and Irrlicht/Newton in Bmax, could you give some indication as to what a speed comparison would be between them.

(That is, Im willing to putup with a longer dev time, cos Im not going to finish anything anyway)

P.S. Hope you had a nice holiday

A New version of 3impact has been released. Version 5.3.0.0.

Hope to see the updated wrapper soon.

Can't find interface for module 'gg._3impact' w/ BlitzmaxDemo

null@example.com (Sky Captain) — Sat, 14 Jul 2007 18:42:08 +0000

Sorry, if this is a dumb question,
but I thought I'd have a look at Blitzmax using the demo with the last 3impact version I have (4.3.0.0), but keep getting that error message stated in the subject of this entry.

I actually started off with higher versions of _3impact.lib, but got like messages, only for the respective Framework entry. Reading this forum carefully, I found that I had to employ 2006_07_04_gg_3Impact.zip, but to no avail.

Of course, I followed the instructions carefully, and also took care to clean up before re-installing the _3impact lib with another version.

I even installed "Blitzmaxdemo" into a directory called "Blitzmax" for fear of possibly hardcoded paths.
No change.

So, what am I overlooking ?

Greetings
Sky Captain

PS: Thank you for creating this forum,in the first place. It seems quite valuable to me, even though I am still pondering whether to buy Blitzmax.

Request...

null@example.com (stevev4v) — Sat, 09 Jun 2007 11:05:26 +0000

Hey Gman,

Would it be possible to add a link to the 4.3.0.0 package under the 4.4.0.0 legacy link? I ask because that was my last eligible upgrade and I'd like to play around with it a bit more before I decide to pay for the current verison.

Thanks!
Steve

null@example.com (gman) — Wed, 25 Apr 2007 13:03:23 +0000

there is a new version of 3Impact released. i have downloaded it but have not yet had the opportunity to install it. based on the release email, there shouldnt be too hectic of an upgrade (crossing my fingers anyway). in any case, wanted to let you know i will be providing an updated mod for the new release. i do not have a timeline yet.

Antiasing?

null@example.com (stevev4v) — Sat, 09 Dec 2006 17:56:55 +0000

Hello,

I am using version 4.3.0, any idea how to enable antialiasing?

Thank you.
Steve.
