[Released] iXors3D Header Update and Library Update (ver 0.111)

[codegit]

Hi Ian

Have you tried anything with Physics? I get compile error when using iXors3d with C and the physic functions. I have not yet had a chance to try this with your header as my logic says that if I cannot getting it working with xCode and c then this will also have problems.

HI Ian, excuseme for not write before.
Now I probe your application on my Iphone and works very well, it´s amazing and it´s a great value for Glbasic, can be done things in 3D for me is very insteresant.

I have a couple of questions, one I think is a silliness, but i´m not sure:

1º If I can test the 3d in GLbasic, but whit standard compiling, in this case Windows, it´s can be do, because I goes crazy for made this, or the mode of use of this library, is make the code in windows and text on iphone every time what I update the code for make the tests.

2ª Excuse me about this question but, whit the .gbal of ixors, I need to buy the ixors from the web, because I don´t watch any whatermark on your example, I think waht have to buy, but if not appears, whatermarks or is fully functional, I supposed if for themes of legalety of the library.

Since Ian, thanks for this AMAZING complement for GLbasic, I think go to be amused and fun a lot of time, whit this super-usefull library.

Best Regards Iván J.

Anything you need , make me know.

Hi James,

Well, it compiles in GLBasic, well the header checks out with the lib at least. Are you sure you are using the latest lib (.a)?

I will check out the physics as soon as time allows.

Hi Ivan,

Well syntactically iXors3D and Xors3D are almost identical, so I would imagine that you could write your game using Xors and then recompile, with a few alterations, for iXors. You would of course need a set of GLBasic headers for Xors too. Oh, and also restrict yourself to the commands that are available in both libraries... Xors has a few extra commands when compared to iXors.

The lib off of my blog does not seem to have a watermark but it IS time limited, so after a while it just stops.

Cheers,


Ian

James,

I converted the Obj-C iPhone physics demo to GLBasic. It seems to be working fine.

I'll post the code tomorrow, after its been tidied up, here. Too tired tonight.

Cheers,


Ian

OK, here is the 'Smash The Wall' physics demo.

Things to note...

The frustum clipping is broken, its a bug, its stuck on portrait, so in landscape, things get clipped a bit short horizontally. This has already been fixed but not upload to the users yet.

The 'DIM z%[1]' is necessary to allow the GLB graphics engine to kick-in/initialise, as its the first command. So its function is not to create a variable but to 'wake' up GLBasic for iXors3D to take over later.

I had trouble with iOS 4.0, this may be a problem with GLB or iXors. Any ways, I set "Base SDK" and "iPhone OS Deployment Target" to 3.2 in the project settings and everything works fine.

Have fun,


Ian

I think we can safely ignore this last message as spam...

I've removed several from the same member already today. I'll remove this one too

Updated to 0.111, see 1st post please.

The physics demo above is pretty slow, the physics lib is still being worked on and I have been informed that it should not be used till its more optimised for the iPhone platform.

Still, Box2D was added in this update! 

I'll try and rustle up a Box2D demo when time permits.

Cheers,


Ian

Ian, cool. Thanks for the speedy updates, much appreciated. 

[bigsofty]

NP James, I am glad you can make use of it. 

Cheers,

Sorry, no updates for the last month, been dealing with a health problem, will update it for sure of the next couple of days.

Cheers,

Hi Ian (or anyone who knows the answer)

I have written an app using my partially complete xors3d header.
Now I want to try and convert it to you ixors3d header and compile for iphone, but I am not entirely clear how to setup ixors3d for glbasic.

I did see an earlier post in this thread, referring to a txt file which explains the setup, but alas, I cannot find the file. It appears the 7z file with your header only has the gbas file, there are no other files extracting.

Where may I find these instructions, or a brief rundown in a post here I would greatly appreciate.

Thanks in advance,
Dave

Hi,

Sorry for the slow reply, can you tell me if you have the full iXors version or the trial? I will build a new header and bundle the installation instructions with you required version.

Cheers,


Ian

[aonyn]

Hi Ian,

Thank you very much for your help. 
I purchased the indie bundle, so I have full license for xors3d and ixors3d.

regards,
Dave

[bigsofty]

No problem Dave, I'll get the latest headers and convert them tonight or tomorrow at the latest.

Cheers,


Ian

Just curious. The link is dead, there is any other way to get the ixors3d for glbasic? And... is iphone exclusive or could be android cpmpatible too??
