heres a dump of the console!

#42

very strange, you get a division by zero somewhere. maybe this is related to a failed loading of an image.
did you get any errors show below the loading bar?

i’ll try and find the reason for the division by zero meanwhile …

#43

i’m pretty sure i found the error. there was no check if your display refresh rate could be read or not. if not, it was zero and that led to the exception.

i have now built in a default of 60Hz if the refresh rate is unknown. please let me know if you encounter any further problems.

#44

oh it almost worked, but shuts down quickly, from what i can pick up from the console, it says full screen not supported, followed by another line which i can’t quiet catch i think it says “bye”.

#45

ah ok, this is something that is missing yet. i have to switch to windowed mode if fullscreen is not supported.
i think i will build in a display mode selection screen at the beginning.

#46

i just published an updated version. the game switches to windowed mode if fullscreen is not supported. could you please give it another try?

question: what would you prefer, a game that lets you choose a resolution and refresh rate or a game that tries to detect the optimal settings automatically?

yup game works fine now in windowed mode! i’m sure my hardware supports fullscreen mode thought but its not detected, any way i think the game should automatically select the res and refresh rate, however a option should be there to also select it manually!
