Uhm... give me a moment... my code right now is so messy due to the attempt at my own FPS limiter... need to make sure I comment all that out proper xD

K

King•8/6/23, 7:04 PM

Okay so the first problem I'm having is

K

King•8/6/23, 7:04 PM

K

King•8/6/23, 7:05 PM

Am I missing some using?

K

khitiara•8/6/23, 7:05 PM

what dotnet version you using?

K

King•8/6/23, 7:05 PM

7

K

khitiara•8/6/23, 7:05 PM

hmm

K

King•8/6/23, 7:05 PM

I think...

K

King•8/6/23, 7:05 PM

lemmie check

K

King•8/6/23, 7:05 PM

Oh, right... old project

K

King•8/6/23, 7:05 PM

was 6

K

King•8/6/23, 7:06 PM

Set it to 7 and that warning went away, good good

K

khitiara•8/6/23, 7:06 PM

yeah that method was introduced in 7

K

khitiara•8/6/23, 7:06 PM

thats why theres the #if NET7_OR_GREATER in the pr

K

King•8/6/23, 7:08 PM

Hmm... sadly the code doesn't seem to do anything, unless I"m being a dummy

K

King•8/6/23, 7:08 PM

FPS and UPS is still going mad at 5000 according to deltatime

K

King•8/6/23, 7:09 PM

and I did set

const double loopsPerSecond = 500;

const double loopsPerSecond = 500;

const double loopsPerSecond = 500;

const double loopsPerSecond = 500;

K

King•8/6/23, 7:09 PM

And CPU and GPU is going mad

P

PerkseyOP•8/6/23, 7:09 PM

oh i'm stupid

P

PerkseyOP•8/6/23, 7:09 PM

i didn't include the part where you have to reset the timer haha

K

khitiara•8/6/23, 7:09 PM

there needs to be a stopwatch.reset after the if statement closes

K

khitiara•8/6/23, 7:09 PM

before the window.doevents

or there works too

K

King•8/6/23, 7:11 PM

Hmm...

K

King•8/6/23, 7:11 PM

That's weird

K

khitiara•8/6/23, 7:11 PM

as originally done the first frame was limited and that was it lol

K

King•8/6/23, 7:11 PM

It does limit both FPS and UPS

K

King•8/6/23, 7:11 PM

But CPU usage is still going nuts

K

King•8/6/23, 7:11 PM

GPU is happier tho

K

khitiara•8/6/23, 7:12 PM

can you check if its getting through the ifsupported and into the pause?

K

King•8/6/23, 7:12 PM

Also I am getting an exception when I close the program

K

King•8/6/23, 7:12 PM

K

King•8/6/23, 7:12 PM

(XRun is where I put the code)

K

King•8/6/23, 7:12 PM

Maybe I'm not unsafe-ing enough?

Kkhitiara can you check if its getting through the ifsupported and into the pause?

K

King•8/6/23, 7:14 PM

It does pass the

X86Base.IsSupported

X86Base.IsSupported

X86Base.IsSupported

X86Base.IsSupported

K

khitiara•8/6/23, 7:14 PM

ok then yeah this isnt helping as much as was hoped then

K

King•8/6/23, 7:14 PM

As in it attempts calling Pause()

K

khitiara•8/6/23, 7:14 PM

pause just emits the x86

pause

pause

pause

pause cpu instruction

K

khitiara•8/6/23, 7:14 PM

which hints to the cpu that this is a wait loop

K

King•8/6/23, 7:18 PM

Could this be a case of "cpu too old to know wtf to do with

pause

pause

pause

pause"?

K

King•8/6/23, 7:18 PM

Cause my CPU is pretty old

K

khitiara•8/6/23, 7:19 PM

maybe

A

Aqua•8/6/23, 7:19 PM

Older CPUs will simply do nothing (NOP) as fast as possible.

yeah potentially

K

khitiara•8/6/23, 7:19 PM

if we have a way to nanowait we really should do closer to what raylib does in addition

K

khitiara•8/6/23, 7:19 PM

sleep to close and then spin the rest

K

King•8/6/23, 7:22 PM

Hm... I was gonna ask if it's even possible to nanowait cross-platform, but raylib manages it so Silk should be able too

K

King•8/6/23, 7:22 PM

Question is tho if RL don't just... not do their magic sleep on half the platforms

K

King•8/6/23, 7:22 PM

I only tried on windows

K

khitiara•8/6/23, 7:23 PM

they have diff implementations of varying platforms

before jumping into anything, can you try this out and see what improvement (if any) it makes?
