#sdl — Public Fediverse posts

🎥🐧 Ah, the thrilling saga of dragging ancient software like 3D Movie Maker, kicking and screaming, into the world of Linux! 🎬🤦‍♂️ Witness the riveting odyssey of replacing the fossilized Win32 with #SDL, a feat as exciting as watching paint dry. 🙄 Surely, the #Linux community awaited this groundbreaking moment with bated breath—yawn.

Недавно достиг первого результата в SDL GPU: потестировал меши, трансформации, постпроцессинг свечения - простой, но зрелищный эффект, текстуры и прочее элементарное.

Вышел регулятор Уатта из эпохи паровых машин. Механизм ходит не слишком ровно, но я доволен. Хотя бы что-то движок уже показывает.

Есть некоторые проблемы производительности при смешивании старого SDL_Renderer и нового API.

Попытка оптимизировать техноблог, обходясь лишь видеоплощадками - с треском провалилась. Трудоёмкость экспериментов создаёт перерывы в видео, нужно место для девлогов. Приземляемся в Mastodon обратно.

Фиксируем результат весны 2026. Лучше развился инфоотсек: почти выстроен прототип GUI-тулкита на #SDL (SDL_Renderer + Cairo) и #Dlang. Но SDL GPU в SDL3 заставляет погружаться в 3D. Весной вспоминал OpenGL, аналогией портируя в SDL GPU и HLSL.

@wyatt @indigoparadox SDL 1 is LGPL, which is troublesome on modern platforms without a meaningful shared library mechanism. Like it or not, a lot of my prospective audience are using Steam with Steamworks achievements, iOS, modern Xbox, modern PlayStation, or Nintendo Switch. What would be the object files that could be meaningfully relinked with a modified copy of SDL for these platforms?

Being a glutton for punishment, I'm downloading the latest update to Unreal Engine 5.7, aka 5.7.4, which I see has Vulkan driver fixes. Prior versions of 5.7 were extremely window-opening-hostile in Linux.

As they changed from using SDL2 to SDL3, that might have something to do with it. I've installed a correct build environment for SDL3, so perhaps that will also improve things. Unreal tries to resolve all dependencies itself. By default it uses your build environment to generate the editor and engine.

I might also peek into the tree to find their SDL code this time.

If it doesn't work, I'm going to stop using the pre-built version of 5.6, so this might be 2 downloads & builds. Wh, and may I add, ee.

OpenGL в PHP не привлекая внимания санитаров: Hello Window

Это ведь когда-то должно было произойти... В мире уже есть примерно бесконечное количество туториалов формата "OpenGL Tutorial" (( раз , двас )). Возникает логичный вопрос: Зачем ещё один? Ответ: Чтобы наконец перевести их! Так что я просто их решил перевести с С/С++ на PHP. А вы что подумали? Я с английского их переводить собрался?

Long shot, but is there anyone here who has used SDL3 and Emscripten or is familiar with building Emscripten from source?

I had to get SDL3_TTF from a PR, and managed to build it with embuilder but so far when I try to build with -sUSE_SDL_TTF=3 it doesn't seem to acknowledge the option and if just complaining that it can't find SDL3/SDL_ttf.h

What am I missing?

So, for my vala game framework "Veggies" I have made a bit more complex sample game.

This is "Shape Blaster" a very old 2013 demo from 'EnvatoTuts+' that was original med in XNA. So I converted it to my framework to test. Its not a full conversion, but good enough.

I think this proves that a rather decent tiny game with extra oomph can be done in this framework 😀.

Hi folks! ✌️ I have a couple of news about the game about the bird Birdy 🐦📰

I've add Jorik 🐧 to "Walking through street" mini-game, and changed the Birdy's hair color.

The new version you can already download from the Birdy's Codeberg page 🏔️👉 https://codeberg.org/xolatgames/Birdy-wants-crisps/releases/tag/v1.4.2

And also, I upload it to my website soon.

See you soon! 😉👋

imgui_bundle, a library for writing GUI apps with Python is amazing.

What is less amazing is that they are doing *exactly* what Wayland critics of protocol ext-zones was afraid of, misusing the reposition API to drag windows around. 🤦

In this case though, they are misusing xdg_popup as a kind of 'child window', and using reposition API when dragged. But this should be done with XDG child window without decorations.

Bug could be in #SDL or #Imgui_bundle

#Wayland #Linux #Python #ImGui

Before jumping into more complex tasks (like stuff that I'd need to actually design, lol) I decided to implement a simple fog of war. Not too pretty, but works!

I think FoW is one of the things that is actually easier to implement when not working with an engine, since you don't have to figure out layers and depths and such, just draw a bunch of black rectangles and that's it.

#gamedev #sdl #sdl3

So I ended up not doing traditional collision checking at all, but relying on flocking to keep the units from colliding and it's actually working pretty nicely!

(re: working on a simple RTS game with C and SDL3)

Hi stranger on the internet
I'm learning #sdl, with C lang and I think it's pretty good, but I'm still new to #sdl3.
Do you have any suggestions for me as a master of SDL?
#code #suggestion #advice #programmer #programming #help #c #cpp #clang #gcc

Ich wurde freundlicherweise darauf aufmerksam gemacht, dass die aktuell zu wählende Variante nicht #lbreakout2 sondern #lbreakoutHD ist.
HD ist eine Weiterentwicklung von 2 und hier ist der Link dazu:
https://lgames.sourceforge.io/LBreakoutHD/

Außerdem gibt es noch #SDL-Ball bzw. #SDLBall.
https://sdl-ball.sourceforge.net/

Beide grundsätzlich unterhaltsam, laufen auf jedem Toaster und kosten nicht einen müden Cent.
Installiert am besten beide und entscheidet welches euch eher zusagt.

sudo apt install lbreakoudhd sdl-ball

Viel Spaß!

@thomasadam Not thrilled that a lot of the #GUI libraries are dropping #X11 support. I prefer cross platform options and dropping one backend means less portability to environments. I'm switching my own desktop to more lightweight GUI options like #FLTK and #SDL. At least those support X11 for now. #pdcurses also supports X11 via SDL.
