There Goes A Tenner - Sept Competition entry

Mojave surely has some bugs:

"Nothing renders when the program loads. It only starts working when moving the window a first time."
https://github.com/Schmavery/reprocessing/issues/117

So ..... did you move/resize the window already? ;-)


Can't you debug the opengl-calls? So to see where things "stop working"?
What happens if you draw some simple polygons? In other words: find what is borking up the whole thing. Maybe you are doing something "oddly" and this leads now to an error instead of just warnings in the background.

great thought - just tried it

Interesting notes:
compiled on Mojave - black screen
compiled on high sierra - work on both!

Now. the interesting stuff is that all the 2d is also 3d (don't ask). and I worked out how to get that operational.

I'm going to try and reverse engineer Marks core code and see if I can find a different approach - can I'm not expecting him to come up with anything - anytime soon...

I have a feeling it's probably something to do with the way he mangles the screens/canvas and shaders. TBH if I could get to a stripped down version then I would be happier

So compiler matters? -> XCode changes

Pssst....
Mojave was officially released yesterday.... Don't anyone tell Qube! 

Lol, didn’t know I’ve been so engrossed in doing my game I’ve missed the latest apple must have updates - I tried the beta a few weeks ago on an external drive and everything worked ok but I’ll not upgrade until I’ve taken a full mirror backup of my main drive + waited to see if there’s any killer bugs that’s need patching.

Hope you can find the Monkey bug as it’d be a shame to give up on your game. Personally I’d complete it in High Sierra and sort the bug out afterwards as this comp allows a week to submit bug fixes + 99% of users will be playing the windows version.

This is actually drawing in 3d and the correct positions. so I've found an entry point! sloooow progress
