i implement the particle in my cocos2dx game. but the performance of particle in my game is very low

Effekseer · February 11, 2019, 3:21am

Please tell me more information. OS, effects, smartphone maker etc.
Official effects are not only for smartphone.

it a simulator

Effekseer · February 16, 2019, 10:26am

Which effects do you play?
Does compile with Release? It is very slow with Debug.
I’m sorry. We only check it with iPhone. If you have an iPhone or iPad, would you play it on this.

chiragkevadiya · February 16, 2019, 10:31am

i removed all code related this i have to re code then i will in form you

Is it possible to change attraction point by code?

Effekseer · March 4, 2019, 2:04am

It can change.

For example,
EffekseerEmitter::setTargetPosition(cocos2d::Vec3);

and you can use all functions about Effekseer through internal manager

EffekseerManager::getInternalManager();

cybergate · July 17, 2019, 9:51am

EffectEmitter::draw
manager->getInternalManager()->DrawHandle(handle);

After this line in Effekseer.cpp will cause a texture problem which make sprite texture losing anti-aliasing / got aliasing artifact, is this my settings problem?

Effekseer · July 23, 2019, 7:41pm

I’m sorry. It is perhaps a bug.
I will fix it.
I’m glad if you have a code to reproduce a bug and send it.

Effekseer · July 24, 2019, 3:45pm

I have two questions.

which environment?
which sprite?(cocos2d-x sprite or effekseer’s sprite)

Best regards.

cybergate · July 25, 2019, 11:17am

Cocos2dx 3.17.2
iOS 12.4
Cocos2dx’s sprite
You can see the problem in this video, after the star effect triggered, the top-right corner house button will get blurry.

I got an error when compiling.

Default member initializer for ‘CameraCullingMask’ needed within definition of enclosing class ‘Manager’ outside of member functions

It seems this is clang and gcc bug.
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=36684

I think the problem is solved.

Another question about android performance, when effect triggered on android device, the UI will lag once, is this a settings problem?

Effekseer · July 26, 2019, 8:26am

I’m sorry. I fix it.

Performance problem.

Effect::create reads texture and models. so it should load and cache while loading scene (or should I implement async load?)
Effekseer 1.4 allocates memories while playing at first. In 1.5 it is going to be improved. Should I release quickly and also improve it in1.4?

Best regards.

Effekseer · July 28, 2019, 1:25pm

I fixed a compile problem and improve memory allocation a bit.

I’m looking forward to the update.

Effekseer · July 29, 2019, 6:58am

Is this rendering bug fixed?

Effekseer 1.5 is very large update.
Please look forward to update!

cybergate · August 1, 2019, 2:37am

So far the rendering problem didn’t happen with 143b2.
Thanks again!
