Construct 3 NW.js desktop app [Deprecated]

Great work, so far no problems and everything works as intended with the recent update.

Just 2 quick questions:

• C3 seems to run on NW.js (Chromium). Does the browser update itself or do we have to update it manually?
• Would it be possible for C3 to remember the state of the window (e.g. maximized) and apply it automatically on startup?

Awesome - I will have to test this out.

The desktop build launches really fast compared to C2 and I love how it updates itself in seconds. But in the editor, things are slower than C2 even thought It consumes more than twice ram than C2. For example:

To open an event sheet, you need to wait for it to load.

Image editor opens slower.

Almost all actions (collapse/open groups, add event, add actions, add objects etc) have really small delays but it brakes the smoothness.

Scrolling in event sheets is laggy.

...

I really want to use C3 but the editor needs performance improvements.

Yay, it's finally out Been looking forward it, I'll be downlading and trying it out today.

Does the remote preview work for the desktop version?

Yep.

No LAG here, no delay..... all actions is "instant"...... if you want to see i can record in video.

LuisCGForte Wow, awesome! Maybe I'm doing something wrong. What is your pc specs? What is the event count of your project? A video would be awesome.

BTW by actions I mean collapse/open groups, add events, add actions, add objects etc.

My specs:

i7 4700MQ 2.40 GHz

8GB Ram

NVIDIA GeForce GT 755M SLI

Windows 10 Pro 64-bit

Cool, thanks.

I agree with bilgekaan i could also do with some performance improvements. I had to split my project so much so that i can work on the event sheet, it's amazing.

Every type of function has it's own event sheet, like Functions - Player movement, Functions - Player animation, Functions - Chat

Insane >.<

I've updated the desktop build download to fix some issues with preview. Use the new download link to update.

what about mac and linux ?

At first we are only releasing a 64-bit Windows desktop download, but we do plan to extend this to 32-bit Windows, 64-bit Mac, and 32-bit and 64-bit Linux later down the line.

Nah. I got so comfortable with browser version that I even forgot it's browser version.

And my project regardless of how massive it is gives no heck about it either ;D

It seems like default theme performs a bit better than the dark theme. Also disabling UI effects and animations helps a little. I will try to use C3 for my next project.
