I need some help: I cloned ddnet 11.0.3 and compiled it using CMake and Visual Studio. Now when I'm in the browser (ingame or not on any server) the entire game starts to lag if something is written in the search box and I refresh. This is not the case in the official release 11.0.3, just in my (I didnt touch the code, just compiled) (edited)

better ask ddnet, its their source

@qshar what do you think this channel is? ^^

mh... does someone know a good profiler for windows?

ufff. I thought it was a PM message feelsamazingman

feelsamazingman

. Sorry

[quakenet] <deen> heinrich5991: VTune is the only one I used that's available on Windows. Some more here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/67554/whats-the-best-free-c-profiler-for-windows

What's the best free C++ profiler for Windows?

I'm looking for a profiler in order to find the bottleneck in my C++ code. I'd like to find a free, non-intrusive, and good profiling tool. I'm a game developer, and I use PIX for Xbox 360 and...

[ddnet/ddnet] Pull request closed: #1203 %s -> '%s'

Can anyone help with my problem?

hm. the idea would be to check where the code spends most of its time

13:04

this can be done using a profiler

13:04

that's why I asked for a profiler for windows

can you do the exact same thing that i did and then look if it laggs for you too if you refresh while something is written in the search bar?

13:16

These are my steps:

git clone https://github.com/ddnet/ddnet
cd ddnet
git checkout a00d4112a747de736cb618a4b54b92b91e01cff8
git submodule update --init --recursive

execute these and then compile it using visual studio x64-release

I don't have access to a windows computer right now, unfortunately

can someone else with a windows pc check that?

I don't know anyone using a windows PC

13:43

(and also having the tools to compile)

13:44

@noby @qshar does anyone of you have a windows system to test this?

nope, I don't use windows for compiling

no sry

You just need to compile in release mode

they claim to do that: "x64-release"

Fokkonount claims allot

13:51

Vs has a profiler, but probably that isn't free enough for u xd I compile fine with vs however

me too but i have these weird laggs when something is in the search bar and i refresh

13:53

i compiled it in x64-release

[quakenet] <Ryozuki> :o

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> is it hard to add serverside tees as a mapper which dont take server slots, they would have to react to teleporters as well and everything. but i think this would make the dummy section a lot easier for starters if you can just pick up a simulated tee at the start and go with it. wold aslo be cool for mappers to have a tees physic in maybe only one part of a solo map. or add 4 tees on one part so you can boat solo. that would be prett

17:50

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> -ty nice to have. i have seen such a thing before on other servers

17:51

[quakenet] <deen> would also significantly reduce client hackiness, since dummy is ugly and should be removed ^

17:52

[quakenet] <deen> so I'd support it if someone wants to make serverside dummies in ddnet

17:52

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> if you want to see such a tee in action, i think thee are such ones in the lobby thing from that popular blocker server network

17:55

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> I think client-side dummies have better controllability

17:57

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> hm yeah thats right.. i was mainly think about placing multiple tees throughout a solo dummy mixed map so you have their hook and bounce behavior. maybe a few dummymaps can be updated with that feature, would be cool if its onbly the easy ones.

17:58

[quakenet] <Konsti> i would really like the thing im corneum suggested but as additional thing NOT as an replacement for normal dummy

17:58

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> yep

17:58

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> ye i meant it as an addition. a new spawn tile

17:59

[quakenet] <Konsti> Teephysics like a tee "tile" would be amazing and give a lot things for mappers creating nice part

17:59

[quakenet] <Konsti> s

18:00

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> yeah. you could just put a tee into a 1x1 block and use that special physic. you could do that now with a dummy on last part but you would have to kill it anually

18:00

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> manually*

adding on above, if there were a type of entity block that could be dragged around (same physics as tees) it could be used in maps

18:11

i.e. you have to collect 5 "keys" (which would be those blocks) to finish the map

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> well thats just checkpoints in a sense. and its possible with switchen

18:13

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> switches*

18:13

[quakenet] <Ttt_> Why use irc instead of discord?

18:14

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> i have no permission

18:14

[quakenet] <Ttt_> On discord?

18:14

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> yes

18:14

[quakenet] <Ttt_> Why

18:14

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> many people dont have permission to reduce spam and trolls

18:15

[quakenet] <Ttt_> Why do i have permission i have been banned many times xD

18:15

[quakenet] <heinrich5991> "If you want to have write access, PM an Admin, e.g. @heinrich5991"

yes, but for example you could have more complex dummy maps by making the player drag 2 dummies

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> yes, there are a lot of new possebilities. i hope it gets added

you can simulate it by making a teeskin and pasting an entity block as the body xd.

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> would be coll if you can choose the skin :D

What if the srvside dummy needs to press a d or space

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> read again

18:21

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> its not a replacement

18:22

[quakenet] <Im__corneum> but some easy dummymaps may be updated for beginners

shouldn't be too hard to spawn a new character entity, it's just that I'm not sure how good we were at keeping a chracter entity simple

22:51

it might have way too much logic tied into it to be feasible
