why would you want to edit any texture at any time though

RRedhacker2 I am saying I would like to be able to actually edit and modify my image data on...

Kai•1/8/23, 1:59 PM

I mean sure, if you need to edit it, I get it.

Furball•1/8/23, 1:59 PM

just edit the texture ahead of time

TTechPizza why would you want to edit any texture at any time though

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 1:59 PM

I want to paint

Furball•1/8/23, 2:00 PM

what

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:00 PM

no but seriously

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:01 PM

I do want to be able to make changes to textures at runtime, mainly for runtime level editing and texture design.

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:01 PM

I would like to keep everything in game or at least in engine if possible

TechPizzaOP•1/8/23, 2:01 PM

gpu-compressed textures are usually trivial to decompress, but you do you

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:02 PM

I looked into it, and they swirrled me into a headache pretty much instantly

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:02 PM

or at least the DXT line did

TechPizzaOP•1/8/23, 2:03 PM

they would not be useful on the gpu if they were algorithmically difficult to decompress

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:03 PM

not to mention they each seem recommended for different common usecases, meaning I would probably want I think it was to support the main 3. Which pretty much made me threw my fist up.

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:03 PM

I never said anything about being algorithmically difficult

RRedhacker2 I looked into it, and they swirrled me into a headache pretty much instantly

TechPizzaOP•1/8/23, 2:04 PM

really now

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:04 PM

yes

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:04 PM

and I stand by what I said

Kai•1/8/23, 2:08 PM

So I'd highly recommend pushing readonly textures to GPU in BC/S3TC (same thing, two names) simply because memory is so slow and processors, especially GPU, are so fast.

Kai•1/8/23, 2:08 PM

The more modern the GPU is the larger the gap between CPU and memory speed. Not even mentioning mobile.

Kai•1/8/23, 2:09 PM

That's why pretty much all modern graphics apps use something like those, or even ASTC, to push readonly data to GPU

Kai•1/8/23, 2:09 PM

And in 99% of cases textures are readonly

Kai•1/8/23, 2:09 PM

So...

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:14 PM

not gonna disagree

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:14 PM

you are 100% right

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:46 PM

do you have GLFW installed?

MarioGK•1/8/23, 2:46 PM

Installed the glfw-wayland package in Arch, and it fixed, but shouldnt silk.net include the libraries automatically?

RRedhacker2 do you have GLFW installed?

MarioGK•1/8/23, 2:46 PM

Didnt have, i thought it came with the nuget package

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:46 PM

why? those are distro specific

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:47 PM

and linux people like using their distros libraries

MarioGK•1/8/23, 2:47 PM

I thought it was a standard library

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:48 PM

why would GLFW be a standard library?

MarioGK•1/8/23, 2:49 PM

Well by standard i meant as it should work on any linux distro, well i am new to linux so there are things that i dont know about libs/deps in linux space yet, in windows you could get a .dll for win8 and it should work on win11

MarioGK•1/8/23, 2:50 PM

And there is a package called Ultz.Native.GLFW i thought it included all the libraries needed to run silk.net with glfw

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:50 PM

never assume anything is standard in an open source forked to hell and back project, that will get you screwed over real quick

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:50 PM

been there lol

MarioGK•1/8/23, 2:51 PM

Thanks for the tip

MarioGK•1/8/23, 2:51 PM

Well anyway i can package glfw with my app? making it the famous single bin publish?

Redhacker2•1/8/23, 2:53 PM

idk

Hanprogramer•1/8/23, 3:05 PM

in my windows build it auto include the native libs

Hanprogramer•1/8/23, 3:05 PM

including linux

Hanprogramer•1/8/23, 3:05 PM

is it distro specific as well?

Hanprogramer•1/8/23, 3:05 PM

libglfw.so.3

Hanprogramer•1/8/23, 3:06 PM

Aqua•1/8/23, 3:11 PM

are you using Silk.NET.WindowingSilk.NET.Windowing or Silk.NET.Windowing.CommonSilk.NET.Windowing.Common?

MarioGK•1/8/23, 3:12 PM

@grifon.petre Silk.NET.Windowing

Aqua•1/8/23, 3:13 PM

oh, hm, interesting
make sure the glfw shared lib has been copied to the bin directory

MarioGK•1/8/23, 3:13 PM

@hanprogramer You are right, publishing it copies the libs to the output bolder and i can run without having glfw installed

Hanprogramer•1/8/23, 3:13 PM

oh cool

Aqua•1/8/23, 3:14 PM

it should copy it without publishing it

Hanprogramer•1/8/23, 3:14 PM

yeah I wasn't even publishing it yet

why would you want to edit any texture at any time though
