  Blurry lines when using FlxSpriteUtil::drawLine

  I've managed to devise a workaround for this problem. It involves loading a 1x1 pixel FlxSprite, resizing it that based on the line dimensions and then stamping in on to graphic.

  Based on this post here, there may be a performance increase on mobile in using this approach.

  Okay. I think it's time to call it. The same thing happens with each suggestion I try. So I dunno what the problem is. I'll probably come back to this project again eventually, but I think I'm done being frustrated for a while.

  Thanks for all your help @galoyo, I appreciate it!

  Seems my problem is partially a little bug with the current release version of OpenFL:
  http://community.openfl.org/t/sampling-second-texture-in-glsl-shader/10628

  Using the GIT develop version allows it to work on flixel sprites.
  But, I can't get a shader that samples a second texture to work in the FlxCamera's shaders.

  you can scroll text or display anything you want in the region. if I remember correctly, the scrollbars will be hidden unless there is something else to show. you can have the window any size and display objects anywhere on the screen.

  (First of all, as a side note: I'm an idiot that didn't realize the "my sound playing one time" was actually the bleep the debugger makes when it throws up an error...woops.)

  I looked at your README, @galoyo, and that actually completely solved my problem. I hadn't found mention about setting the asset paths in the Project.xml until now and yours was quite enlightening, and actually makes sense why my sound wasn't playing and the error it was throwing in the debugger!

  To be more explicit for the sake of including everything here for posterity, I had to define my sounds in Project.xml like so:

  <assets path="assets" if="flash" exclude="*.ogg" /> <assets path="assets" if="windows" exclude="*.mp3" embed="true" /> <assets path="assets" if="neko" exclude="*.mp3" embed="true" /> <assets path="assets" if="linux" exclude="*.mp3" embed="true" /> <assets path="assets" if="html5" exclude="*.mp3" embed="true" /> <assets path="assets/sounds" rename="sounds" if="flash" embed="true"> <sound path="mySound.mp3" id="mySound" /> <sound path="myOtherSound.mp3" id="mySound2" /> </assets> <assets path="assets/sounds" rename="sounds" unless="flash" embed="true"> <sound path="mySound.ogg" id="mySound" /> <sound path="myOtherSound.ogg" id="myOtherSound" /> </assets>

  Then, I called the sounds in my code like so:

  FlxG.sound.play("mySound", 1, false); FlxG.sound.play("myOtherSound", 1, false);

  And that's all there is to it! Since I'm on Linux, I could simply use ffmpeg to convert my original sound files, such as wav files, to the appropriate mp3 and ogg formats like so:

  ffmpeg -i mySound.wav mySound.mp3 ffmpeg -i mySound.wav mySound.ogg

  Thanks again to both of you for helping me!

  i saw visual c++ but i didn't see c++ win32

  I think that should do it. Like I said, I missed that step.

  In case you, or anyone else didn't install C++ while installing Visual Studio, like me, you can install it after the fact.

  This link is where I found how to install C++ after the fact. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31953769/visual-studio-doesnt-have-cl-exe

  I used this method from the comments of the chosen answer on that thread.

  "if Visual Studio is already installed, choose File | New | Project | C++ and you will be prompted to install the necessary components." – jodis

  But you can also do this I reckon.

  You don't need to re-download the installer for Visual Studio: just go to Add or remove programs -> Visual studio community 2015 -> modify. From there, I clicked languages, Visual C++. Added cl.exe! – user2831602

  Where ever you add your background image you can size it there.

  var bg = new FlxSprite(); bg.loadGraphic("assets/images/bg.png"); bg.setGraphicSize(FlxG.width, FlxG.height); bg.updateHitbox(); bg.scrollFactor.set(); add(bg);

  The scale mode demo is for the entire game, in case you want to make it stretch to fill the whole screen.
  In that case, you can do it in Main.hx:

  import flixel.FlxG; import flixel.system.scaleModes.FillScaleMode; // add this in new() { } FlxG.scaleMode = new FillScaleMode();

  @mobandon Ah, I see. That's probably because OpenFL's API docs are based on the ActionScript 3 / Flash API, where MP3 was the only supported audio format I think.

  @ttt

  Lets do this. Remember the haxelib thing I told you? Please do a screenshot.

  Download Rapid Environment Editor and do a screenshot as well.

  This way, we could see what you have installed, what versions, what's configured and what not.

  I'm not sure if anything needs to be "set" there, isn't that just built into GLSL and "just works" with OpenGL / WebGL? What attributes are you talking about exactly?

  To be honest, I don't know too much about shaders.

  Technically it's not even an OpenFL but a Lime feature, since that's the layer where the build tool comes from. Same for anything else in the Project.xml format. :)

  Alternatively, now you can just get them from Haxelib. :)

  @AllNamesRTaken Maybe, I'm a bit concerned about the performance implications breakOnLoad might have (mentioned in the docs in my screenshot).

  Lime works fine with Haxe 4 preview 3. Latest Haxe 4 dev introduced some very minor compiler errors in OpenFL 3.6.1 and Flixel 4.3.0 due to a bugfix, but that'll be fixed in OpenFL 8 and Flixel 4.4.0.

  I assume that just pressed is async with respect to html events which then will not work. Perhaps you can call addEventListener on window and catch Enter or F11. That should count as user initiated as well.

  I am new to haxe so here is the js code that works.

  window.addEventListener("keydown", function(ev) { if(ev.key=="F11" /* or Enter if you want */) { var thing = document.getElementById("mything"); thing.webkitRequestFullscreen(); ev.preventDefault(); ev.stopPropagation(); } });
