Hello,

I tried to make a backround loader like in tutorial but instead of number result I want to show it by progress bar. So I load progress bar which I prepared in Gui Editor and then in customUpdate function I used set method for progress bar and as parametr i used updateProgress, but nothing happened. When I debuged it everything looked ok.

I have also a theoretical question about portals like in Portal or Prey games. Do you have any ideas how we can make it on Esenthel?

Do you have Gui.update() and Gui.draw() functions in loader's update and draw methods?

Yes I have.

And you're adding guiObjs to Gui?

Yes. I see progress bar on the screen but it's progress value is still set on 0 but when I debug it I see that this value is changing.

As for portals.. I guess it shouldn't be harder than simple updating the player's location coördinates.

No i think he means the game Valve Portal, Portal source... in this game u have holes in walls after u shoot at it, when u shoot at another piece of wall the old hole closes and the new 1 opens.

But for making portals maybe u can use CSG

Btw i have tested it, and when u load the same scene again the progress bar wont go up it stays on 0%... cause the world is already loaded.

Dunno if thats your problem.. if so then this should be the solution:


Even if the world is the same; it reloads and the progress bar works fine..

Ok thanks but it still doesn't work. The problem is even when I load my scene at the first time.

Edit: Ok. I found the problem. I drew two progress bars (one of them I use when the game will load) which has the same position and size

As for portals i thought about making markers on walls or floors and inside them put viewport which will show view from second portal. But is it possible to make viewport which we can put in 3d dimension?

no
