Supermodel Forum

Hi all,

After following the instructions to make a successful build for 10.9, it looks like Apple have gone and changed something else for 10.10. Supermodel loads and runs everything just fine with the same build that worked for 10.9, but now every polygon appears black:


Everything 2D seems to be fine, and the speed is also fine. Everything works as it should, apart from now it's a permanent night-time mode!

Would anyone have any idea as to why this might be happening? I'm wondering if the SDL 1.2 library doesn't play nicely with Yosemite?

Very strange. This almost looks as though the 3D fragment shader isn't working. Unfortunately, without being able to test it myself, I can't confirm.

I'm certainly no programmer myself, so I wish I could help out. But if there's anything I can do, such as testing builds, let me know and I'll be happy to help.
Can anyone else on 10.10 (Yosemite) confirm this bug?

Yes, I've just updated to Yosemite and can confirm that it's exactly the same on my iMac all games were running perfectly on the older OS but now every single one displays this graphical glitch

Has anyone found a cure for it?

Get in touch with me via email next week if you are patient enough to help me debug. We might be able to discover what's wrong by stripping down the current shader programs until they start working. It could take several iterations, though.

Bumping this thread (to show signs of life) - the issue still exists.
Hoping to help in any way possible!

Bart has kindly been trying out a few things with me as a tester, but we haven't looked at it for months now. From what I understand Bart is super busy with life, so it might take some time!

For those wondering, the bug is still present in OSX 10.11 as well.

Although I personally have not had time to look into it, hope is not lost. Let's wait and see for a few weeks...

Hello all, I've attempted building Supermodel using the latest SVN (r345) and wanted to point out that it doesn't successfully build with 3 errors. This was done using the following steps that did work for previous builds of Supermodel (before the new graphics engine):

1. Download the latest SVN (r345 in this case);
2. Extract files;
3. Move the OSX make file from /Makesfiles/ to the root of your Supermodel folder;
4. Modify the OSX Makefile based on this thread;
5. Rename the OSX makefile to simply "makefile";
6. In terminal, change location to the Supermodel source folder, enter command "make";

Then it should compile. It stops after a few lines due to 3 errors which I have embedded below. I'm unsure if there are easy fixes or if it's something for the future, but I wanted to get it down while it's in my mind.

Code: Select all

Errors are obviously at the end of that code block. OSX aside, great to see the newest build running nicely on Windows, great work guys

You need to enable C++11 language support. The MacOS X Makefile hasn't been updated in ages since I don't have access to a Mac. Add -std=c++11 to the C++ compiler flags.
