can you even properly play midi files on modern hardware or does it just go through 15 levels of emulation

>>108553750
You know that MIDI files sounded different on every sound card right? There's no "authentic" sounding MIDI

>>108553755
you can just say you don't know instead of going off on tangents

>>108553761
The answer is yes because the idea of "emulating" MIDIs makes no sense

>>108553765
midi is a standardized instruction set
old audio hardware could directly accept those instructions and generate audio signals from them
modern hardware uses software layers to convert those instructions into something that the hardware can actually understand (aka emulation)

Integrated audio chips dropped midi support around Windows XP era. Unless you have a discrete audio card, any midi playback these days is done in software. Anyways even in software it's trivial, you can even write your own midi system. Just be careful with soundfont licenses.

You're assuming these people complete projects instead of just writing an ECS system and half a renderer and calling it quits

>>108554577
99% of optimization is just understanding the task you're actually trying to perform and using the right data structures for it. Structuring your project sanely from the start isn't what they mean by "premature optimization".

>>108554588
optimization is a refinement process

wtf my dumb chess ai just beat stockfish 10-0

>>108554525
Skimmed through it on archive. The sections on tooling are completely deprecated. It has a good summary of basic optimization strategies which were probably novel to a lot of people in 1992, but are either obsolete or common knowledge in current year.

Could be useful if you were doing something like retro console dev where your compiler probably sucks or you might even be using assembler.

games like doom and quake are more remarkable for the performance of their rendering algorithms which is going to be lost on you unless you have a computer science background, the programming itself isn't particularly amazing, doom at least has a lot of hacks and ub (intentional and unintentional) that you'd want to avoid

about the only game I often hear as some kind of "holy grail of programming style" is doom 3, which is otherwise completely unremarkable as a game, and from what I can tell it's mostly just c++ programmed by someone who clearly wanted to be using c

Everything is described in autistic detail, it has links to dozens of sample projects that show you how to use every feature, and it even has the full source code to "MiniEngine" or whatever it's called that you could literally git clone and make a game in if you wanted. Literally the only thing a book could provide is half assed paraphrasing.

If you can't follow it, you don't need a DX12 book, you need a C++ book and probably experience actually building projects, Windows programming, and using libraries.

Trying to do terrain generation purely via simplex noise and fractal brownian motion. The goal is to be able to easily zoom in so I don't need to work much on the small-scale terrain.
Current approach is small-frequency continent+plains mask, high-frequency hills mask and a ridged-fbw mountain mask.
The plains and hills stuff looks good, but the coastline and continents in general kind of suck.
I tried to do a continent-seeding thing where I randomly seed the continents and add another mask for that but it doesn't seem to work well, at least not how I wrote it.

>>108557035
huh raylib seems to have some issues at least on my machine, first of all fullscreen borderless windowed mode blinks black whenever focus shifts to or away from it, second the window is always drawn on top of all other windows when in borderless windowed mode which kind of defeats the purpose, and third it seems to have intermittent hitching in all modes even with vsync enabled and regardless of whatever you set the target fps to

I'm guessing all these issues stem from the cross platform window library it uses but it doesn't really expose a lot of functionality to fix it

>>108554989
>which is going to be lost on you unless you have a computer science background
Yeah bro you need a college degree to research things. I learned just fine with it by porting the engine over to directx 9 a long time ago. I just did hands on approaches with everything. most efficient way to learn? maybe not but it was the most practical. Now it doesn't even matter.

Thought up a system for multi-threading my engine, but after doing the math it's the draw calls taking up the vast majority of execution time. In DX11 they cannot be dispatched in parallel.

>>108557531
nvidia control panel, 3d settings, vulkan / opengl present mode (bottom of list) -> set to DXGI
I don't know how AMD or intel behaves by the way.
You can emulate OpenGL ontop of DirectX to get the same effect without needing to tell users to toggle this option.
I bet Raylib has an option to select a OpenGL es backend (it seems you need to build it), so then you can just use Angle (NOTE, GL ES can be loaded from the OPENGL profile AKA through WGL, OR it could be loaded directly from GL es binaries, AKA you need to load libGLESv2.dll (which requires libEGL.dll instead of WGL) not opengl32.dll inside system32 for Angle to work), which means that it might be impossible for Raylib to use Angle unfortunately. I just copy the DLL's from chrome/edge.
You can use Mesa3d which should "just work" by putting the DLL's beside the binary (uses d3d12 by default, zink is SLOW), it works with Desktop GL, but it's a lot larger (~100mb).
https://github.com/pal1000/mesa-dist-win
Also I was going to write a long essay about how this problem is not related to Independant Flip, but it turns out that in windows 11 all DX11 applications (including Angle) will use independant flip, and it seems like intel presentMon shows "compose: Copy with GPU GDI" incorrectly for Angle, when it's probably does use Independant Flip.
System > Display > Graphics > Change Default graphics settings > "Optimizations for windowed games".
However... when I use angle with "EGL_DIRECT_COMPOSITION_ANGLE" (SDL+hint) which shows "Composed: Flip" in presentmon, it does feel a little bit different (while resizing the window), but I don't see any FPS increase in particular from my testing.
Also while resizing the window, I usually see a black section of the window, this is probably a OpenGL issue. But when I use angle with vulkan selected, it fixes it (but it lacks Flip, and there is one bug that breaks the windowed mode if you press the windows button while in fullscreen, so I don't use the vulkan backend).

>>108558795
*OH I deleted my post because I thought raylib rlgl was not a header only library. But it does mean you can't switch between deskop and Angle GL which I think is pretty lame. L on raylib for that because from my testing, 99% of GL ES is compatible with Desktop GL, you don't need different functions (but I think this is more of an issue with GLFW than raylib).
Yes you can just set #define GRAPHICS_API_OPENGL_ES2
and Angle will be loaded if you copy the DLL's.

How annoying is it to make an engine that can be compiled for the web AND desktop?

I think WASM doesn't have the ability to allocate memory at all, there's just a big chunk of memory you have to live with. OpenGL-ES also doesn't support persistent buffers. That's all I know.

>>108559199
I mean you could always do it the other way around, an engine built on web tech that is also usable as a desktop application with Electron / Tauri

>>108559196
>but I think this is more of an issue with GLFW than raylib
*it's not, nevermind. GLFW isn't the problem. It's just the raylib API requiring macros to set the GL to ES.
>>108559199
It's really annoying. Also persistant mapping can mean 2 things, you could be talking about glMapBuffer, which isn't real on emscripten, it just uses scratch buffer using malloc. And persistent memory that has a ton of fences manual synchronization and stuff (GL ES 3.1 might support it, with EXT_buffer_storage, but webgl will probably never support it). But that feature seems to be purely made for multithreadded rendering (AKA, everything in opengl is not thread safe, except fences and sync objects, so you can just write to that buffer on another thread as fast as you need, while the main thread does all the draw / state execution).
The first big problem is that itch.io and github pages will not give you a site that has the HTTP header that lets you use SharedArrayBuffer (required for threads to share memory) and precise timers (default timers are only 10ms accurate or something), specifically you need a secure context and cross-origin isolated. So you need to host your game on your own server which will make the $100 steam fee (that is refunded after $1000) look very cheap.
The #1 problem is that I personally feel that webgl just feels sluggish no matter what you do. webgpu won't fix it, nothing can fix it. Also different browsers run wasm / webgl differently. The sluggishness matters a lot if you intend on making a game that is 3D or has effects following your mouse cursor / drawing. But you can treat the web version of your game as a demo, in theory.
Webgpu is for compute shaders. webgl has feedback transform which isn't great. both webgpu and webgl are both missing geometry /etc shaders, and I don't know if webgpu will ever get those shaders since I think there is more hype around webgpu AI's.

>>108559446
>you need to host your game on your own server
That's only a problem if you have bloated AAA assets, haven't seen anyone here make a game like that.
>webgpu
Isn't that just a wrapper on top of webgl? That's what I read when I looked into it, but I immediately lost interest so maybe I didn't read enough.
>precise timers
I had the impression that requestAnimationFrame is similar to vsync.
>will not give you a site that has the HTTP header that lets you use SharedArrayBuffer required for threads
??? What's even the point? That seems like it defeats 99% of the purpose of having threads. I'm surprised all the unity/godot games work with that kind of limitation.

>>108559199
Why would you target the web when you could go native?

Only way to reliability get rich gamedevving is to make porn games

>>108559734
There's a barrier of entry to playing a game when it has to be downloaded and installed first. Being able to play the game just by going to a webpage makes it infinitely more accessible and significantly more likely for people to try it out.

>>108559446
>I personally feel that webgl just feels sluggish
*To be specific, the games feel like triple buffering (it's kind of doing that, since your webgl surface is technically an offscreen texture I believe)
So if the game runs at 144fps + 144hz monitor, you will feel almost nothing, but if you are running with a 60fps monitor + the game runs around or below 60fps, it will make the game feel much worse than a native game.
*Also I think the timer has a 1ms resolution, not 10ms.
here is doom3 demo in emscripten for fun:
https://wasm.continuation-labs.com/d3demo/
>>108559686
>Isn't that just a wrapper on top of webgl?
Nope, and surprisingly webgl is officially supporting webgpu as a backend even though at the moment nobody is asking for that. but hey, maybe if they add new features to webgpu, webgl will get those features through angle (hopefully the browsers in the future will include Angle, so we don't need to run Angle in wasm...).
>??? What's even the point?
Technically the most important requirement for threads would be audio, and audio is already easily handled by web audio worklet / webaudio web worker stuff (emscripten and libraries handles it for you, so you can just use SDL or OpenAL or miniaudio or whatever and it will work)
Web workers work fine but they don't share memory, the memory needs to be sent in channels.
Side note: The backend emscripten code tends to avoid wasm a bit because it's a bit harder to debug (maybe?), and wasm doesn't support async stuff and exceptions very well (and there is an overhead when you switch between JS and wasm).
And I believe timers could be helpful for low level audio stuff. Not sure exactly what, but it's there somewhere.
timers are also important for showing the FPS and showing a little UI performance measurement thing if you have one (it's good enough for showing the FPS, but if you wanted something fancy, you need more than 1ms resolution). Obviously, users don't need that, but it's annoying that it's broken.

Your indieslop.exe probably isn't potentially consuming more resources than the computer running it even has so you don't need to request or query shit. You don't need some kind of custom exception handler. You're probably just using built-in types and not reinventing the string for maximum performance. I have no idea what SetErrorMode does but I'd imagine it sets some kind of error mode which you probably don't care about. I have no idea what InitializeCriticalSection does but it's probably related to multithreading which you're probably not doing or you're doing through language features rather than directly through OS calls.

All of a sudden the things I was excited about that would my Minecraft clone unique aren’t so anymore. Nonetheless I still have advantages on my side: time, no gayreaucracy, and no lofty aspirations of an ecosystem. C++ too I guess, among some other various tidbits. The good news is my new Vulkan backend is coming along very nicely. I just need to finish implementing the descriptor heap manager before I can take it on a real test drive. The downside right now is that renderdoc and nsight don’t support the descriptor heap extension yet. It’s not a move killer or anything but I wish renderdoc could launch like nsight at least since I prefer that interface more.

Why would you ever need any of that to make a game?

>>108565132
why use both __uuidof and iid_ppv_args_helper, instead of just a plain old iid_ppv_args since that is literally just defined as __uuidof and iid_ppv_args_helper

>>108565459
> or write an abstraction over vulkan, d3d12, and metal?
If you're going to do that, just use sdl3 gpu.

Why would a game like Crimson Desert not work on Intel ARC? If the hardware is all abstracted away by the API, what difference does it make?

>>108565796
Thinking about it logically there are 2 possibilities, the hardware doesn't support a feature that the game relies on, or the drivers don't support a feature that the game relies on.

I guess a 3rd possibility exists where the devs detect Intel ARC and then deliberately crash the game.

There could be a toggle whether to do it on the CPU or GPU.

I am stuck in hellworld doing webDev to pay my bills when I know how to do gameDev and want to make my living that way but can't afford to get off this fucking webDev treadmill. I'm like an actor waiting tables in Hollywood dreaming of their big break while I scrape other people's half-eaten food off their plates into the garbage can along with my dreams

Why is webDev so god awful? I could make this shit blazing fast optimized af with lightweight code building it from the ground up with no dependencies but they're forcing me to use this bullshit infinite stack of garbage libraries to do the simplest shit and no one gives a fuck that it takes multiple seconds to do literally everything when it should be taking fucking milliseconds. SINGLE DIGIT milliseconds
