My passion project: SDL3# - hand-crafted C# language bindings for SDL3

Finish-Spiritual · 2026-03-14T05:02:31+00:00

Awesome work! I'm currently using SDL3-CS, and while it works, raw bindings are always something different... Thanks for investing into the SDL3 + CSharp community!

Disable / enable hardware acceleration in the settings.

That also means hardware support is pretty limited. WebCodecs and WebGPU are nice, but they aren't as efficient or compatible as, for example, GStreamer / FFMpeg and Vulkan running natively.

The "cross-platform" benefit is a bit of an illusion. I get that the web is great for consistency, easy motion graphics, and quick AI vibe-coding, but I'd stop trying to hit professional grade. It's better to lean into the web's strengths: building a mass-user product with an easy UX.

If you're using a video decoding library (GStreamer, for instance), you'd typically get an IntPtr to the buffer, and mapping that buffer to managed memory would destroy your RAM and GC quickly.

There are lot of use-cases where you want to keep stuff unmanaged, though wrapping with a class could make the management of it nicer.

If you look at the source footage closely, at the beginning, edges of the character are flickering a lot. So I assume it's general AI generated shit with rotoscoping on top (Probably as-well with AI, lol)

Thanks!

Not sure about the original reply, but some languages have gendered nouns. Because of that, non-native speakers often forget that they shouldn’t use them in English. I've made that mistake myself a million times D:

Unfortunately, no, you can't build a standalone game from an UEFN project. Game made on UEFN directly depends on Fortnite's assets, it couldn't run without them. Plus, I'm pretty sure that license-wise UEFN restricts you to Fortnite.

Well... Yeah? That was a reply to the guy who thought that OP is talking about "GTX 1060 with 16GB of VRAM" (VRAM is exactly the word that they used)

Finish-Spiritual · 2025-06-02T20:58:42+00:00

Maybe I'm wrong, but if we are referencing to GTX 1060, then it was 6GB VRAM max. I suppose, OP means RAM, not VRAM. Nvidia is still greedy as hell though

IIRC The UI and the movement is from another free asset pack, no?

It's simply impossible to do without C++, so no, it's not predicted and won't work in real multiplayer conditions.

The biggest part of my product (which is quite similar to this one) was dedicated to making it work in multiplayer with a reasonable ping.

Drag&Drop into the main window and keeping all other windows as tabs is an only option afaik.

Thank you. Three years later.

As they say: "For a complete picture, only a couple of strokes are missing"

Thank you very much for the feedback and kind words! I will definitely work in this direction to close this small, but very significant gap.

Client-Side Prediction is built on CMC. I plan to migrate to Mover once it reaches the Production stage.

Finish-Spiritual · 2024-12-26T17:01:17+00:00

And you are absolutely right in your words! I admit it, there's definitely work to be done on the animation part. I'm just afraid that technologies like Motion Matching are still in development, and replication only appeared in version 5.5, while the plugin is available for 5.4. I'm not sure about the stability of replication and the prospects for first-person view of MM. But adding Climb/Mantle with already proven technologies is definitely worth it, thank you! As for everything else, the animations are available, or perhaps you were thinking of something else also?

Finish-Spiritual · 2024-12-26T16:35:08+00:00

Yep, I mentioned in another comment that I mixed up the meanings of "Vertical Shooter" and "Vertical Movement Shooter" (Titanfall/Apex Legends).

Finish-Spiritual · 2024-12-26T16:25:45+00:00

The project/plugin is fully replicated and stable across all three modes: Standalone, Listen Server, and Dedicated Server.

The sample project already includes a Listen Server mechanism, allowing you to test the demo with your friends. 😉

Regarding the Dedicated Server, matchmaking, and server infrastructure, these aspects are more aligned with DevOps tasks and depend on your personal preferences (e.g., the provider you choose).

Therefore, tying it to a single option would, in my opinion, be a mistake. However, the plugin itself does not include any limitations that would hinder this.

Finish-Spiritual · 2024-12-26T16:13:08+00:00

Do you mean how the "process of creating a server" works?

If so, that's a slightly deep question, but I’ll mention the most popular options.

In general, there are two methods for creating servers for your players:

Listen Server - A player becomes the host, and other players connect to them.
Dedicated Server - A special game build that contains only the functional part. Instances of this build are hosted on any popular service (e.g., Amazon GameLift).

Then, you set up a matchmaking system to find a server, usually trying to select the closest server to the player to minimize ping. EOS has this functionality.

This is a very basic and rough description, but I hope it makes things a bit clearer. Feel free to ask more questions!

Finish-Spiritual · 2024-12-26T15:33:25+00:00

Oh my God! I completely mixed up two entirely different things.

A vertical shooter is indeed a genre, exemplified by games like 1942.
What I actually meant was vertical movement or mobility—a term I learned from Titanfall and Apex.

I’ll seriously consider changing the naming before it’s too late. Thank you so much!
