  • I made a feature request for this a while ago. You can vote for it by adding a thumbs up here:

    github.com/Scirra/Construct-feature-requests/issues/73

  • The github page you shared includes an example manifest file that you can download and import into your project.

  • Release - NormalMap32 v2.1

    Significant performance boost for WebGL (regression v2.0), and additional performance enhancements across all shader variants.

    Disabling lights by setting light intensity to 0 is no longer advised. The removal of this check within the shader is attributed to its lack of tangible benefits.

  • Release - NormalMap32 v2.0

    This is a major overhaul and unfortunately not backwards compatible with existing projects! If you still plan to update: Remove the effect from all your normal maps - before installing this update. If you can no longer open your project after updating, just install the old effect version again and retry. Keep in mind that all your event code will require an overhaul as well.

    • Adds WebGPU support
    • Adds support for flipped sprites
    • Simplified the falloff formula
    • RGB values are now defined via color pickers
    • Most parameters are now defined in percentage
    • Removes ambient light settings from each light
    • Adds a single ambient light option
    • Auto-detects screen resolution for WebGL2 and WebGPU
    • Performance improvements
    • Improves parameter descriptions

    Added new 2.0 example project.

  • No idea, but i still had his mail from when i previously contacted him over a year ago. You can also still find his mail on his unity asset store page. So i'm confident that it's his mail.

    His exact response was:

    Hello,

    I'm sorry for my absence and delayed response.

    ProUi and Water addon are now open source for the community to take over :

    https://github.com/aekiro2/C3Addons

    No funding needed on my side.

  • I contacted aekiro recently with mikal's idea to fund ProUI becoming open source via the OpenCollective platform. aekiro responded with making it open source for free 5 days ago. So a big thanks to aekiro.

    For the time being the community could now help fixing issues.

  • Awesome, thanks Ashley!

  • Ah i get it now.

    For some reason everything has already your own thumbs up, however this first one does not actually count. I would prefer it to be 0, if there's no thumbs up.

    I assume there can only be either no stars, or 5 stars as soon as you get your first thumbs up. Means that there's no meaning to the stars at all, it just shows your thumbs up count between the brackets.

    I would suggest to either remove the star rating system, or implement it properly.

    And move the rating system to the addon page.

  • Try Construct 3

    Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.

    Try Now Construct 3 users don't see these ads
  • Can someone tell me where the star ratings for addons are coming from?

    The only addon rating system i've came across are the ones on a users' profile. There you can give either a thumbs up or down, however it doesn't seem to affect the star rating, or does it?

    Also why is that rating system to be found on the profile, but not on the page of the addon itself?

    I'm genuinely confused.

  • To be taken seriously, Construct needs a major makeover. Their website, logo, mascots, and how they advertise their engine all seem too playful. Don't get me wrong, it's professional, but their design language is truly geared towards young children.

    If Construct wants to appeal Unity users, it must undergo a complete re-branding. Construct has trapped itself in the "no-coding - fast prototyping" niche since the very beginning. And Construct 3 went full kids mode but with a hefty monthly price-tag.

    So while aimed at kids, kids usually don't have any income, making schools the main target audience. Unity is aimed at an entirely different market. Even if C3 is capable to take over a small portion of Unity 2D projects, it's just not advertised as such.

    Just compare the C3 landing page to Godot, Unity or CryEngine. C3 advertises how many users it has, and how the cutting-edge technology makes it run in your browser. It then starts to talk about "Chances are you've played games made in Construct and even have some installed on your phone.". Or "It's Fast". Does that sound appealing to a Unity, or any serious user?

    There's no real info on what the engine its truly capable of. No technical details. No proper game showcases. I would prefer the Construct 3 Features page as landing page, because it actually tells you some important information. Not perfect either, but much better.

    I think Construct does many things really great. But being appealing to a mature audience doesn't seem to be part of their marketing strategy.

  • Unfortunately the example project from NormalMapExtended doesn't account for scrolling. However that doesn't meant that the effect isn't working, it just means that you will have to adapt your code to keep light position at bay.

    I would recommend using my improved version of the NormalMapExtended addon called "NormalMap32". It is in every aspect a little better than NormalMapExtended, is also better documented, and the example project accounts for your mentioned issue.
