Wait, I taught there was only one light in your scene,
if there is more than one I think I know what is going on,
in Maratis each entity use only the closest light around :

For desktop it's the 4 closest lights, but on iOS because it slower, it's only the closest.
So that's why you can see a different behavior than on Maratis editor.
Try to use less number of light for ios, or to be sure the lights radius don't overlap too much.

can you check that your camera is looking at the objects and that the clipping is correct,
also, just try the light with a big radius (in case)...

You are not using a custom shader with the mesh or something like that ?

was your game files in the project directories meshs/ maps/ etc ?

Hi, in fact xml mesh are transform to binary when the project is published and packed to a npk file.

But we didn't update the ios example to load from npk, you remind me.

To read npk it needs :

- MFileManager/MPackageManagerNPK
- MLoaders/MBinMeshLoader

Very nice

For the text you can also use MOText manually I think, but there might be a little trick for drawing it if it's not in a scene (not sure).

There is multiple way to do it, you can use RayHit by sending a ray starting from the touch position,
or you can use collision detection :

- move a cube (collision physics as a ghost) depending on the touch position.
- detect if there is a collision with other objects (also set as ghost) : http://wiki.maratis3d.org/index.php?tit … ionBetween

There is no build-in variable for fps, you have to count the frames every seconds,
you can do that in MGame::draw for example, increment a number every frame and when 1 sec is done you'll have fps.

But I'll try to add this feature by default soon.

If you want to draw 2d, you might also need to disable depth-test and face-culling.

Hi,

you have to set the viewport and the matrix, like with openGL :

void set2dMode(unsigned int width, unsigned int height)
{
    MRenderingContext * render = MEngine::getInstance()->getRenderingContext();
    render->setViewport(0, 0, width, height);
    
    // set ortho projection
    render->setMatrixMode(M_MATRIX_PROJECTION);
    render->loadIdentity();
    
    render->setOrthoView(0.0f, (float)width, (float)height, 0.0f, 1.0f, -1.0f);
    
    render->setMatrixMode(M_MATRIX_MODELVIEW);
    render->loadIdentity();
}

(used in the post process example : http://www.maratis3d.com/code/post-process/MyGame.cpp)

You can communicate from lua to c++ (and so for objective c I suppose)

For example by creating your own script function :

int exampleFunc(void)
{
    MEngine * engine = MEngine::getInstance();
    MScriptContext * script = engine->getScriptContext();
    
    if(script->getArgsNumber() == 2)
    {
        int firstArgument = script->getInteger(0);
        int secondArgument = script->getInteger(1);
        
        // do a simple addition
        script->pushInteger(firstArgument+secondArgument);
        return 1; 
    }
    
    return 0;
}



MyGame * game = NULL;

void StartPlugin(void)
{
    // get engine
    MEngine * engine = MEngine::getInstance();

    // add script function
    MScriptContext * script = engine->getScriptContext();
    script->addFunction("testFunction", exampleFunc);
    
    // set my game
    game = new MyGame();
    engine->setGame(game);
}

void EndPlugin(void)
{
    SAFE_DELETE(game);
}
