@ashishcw said in Menyoo - a workflow question:

@TheMurderousCricket In short and simple answer Yes.
AFAIK, The reason this happens(Invisible roads, invisible Other components) is because of occlusion culling. It's a technique used by many game engines(Unreal Engine, Unity3D). It simply disable/hide the game objects(for Non Static) & layers(for Static Objects) which are out of the camera's draw scale.

So in simple words, GPU & CPU only needs to render the game objects which player(Player's main camera) can see. Gameobjects are not needed to be rendered processed which are out of this range.

Apples and oranges, really. Naturally, objects far outside the scope of the player, will not be rendered (nor objects within a ymap governed by the entitiesExtents* value, when you are outside of these bounds).

What TheMurderousCricket is talking about, though, is the fact that Menyoo's camera is assuming a fixed 'start-off point', as it were, where the farther you move away from that position, LODS start to kick in, so roads/bushes, etc, will all become fuzzy when you panned too far off. 'Occlusion culling' is simply not related to this phenomenon.

As for despawing, apart from cars and peds (outside range), normally actually nothing despawns. Ere the opposite: objects you manually despawned (or with a script. of course) will return after a while, when you were away in the meantime. The way a script tends to handle this, is to re-despawn these objects (usually based on proximity to them).

@meimeiriver How do I go about doing that?

You can find Dilapidated's Gameconfig.xml 3.0 right there. Many modders/players use this as the start-off point for their stable game.

@Maxro said in Game crashes when I have 15 or more peds installed with addonpeds:

So.. It hasn't worked- and I can't find a way to fix this issue

I suspect you increased more (beyond what's wise) in your gameconfig than just pedmemory. So, I suggest you start with a fresh Dilapidated gameconfig, and adjust pedmemory (and maybe a few other items) from there.

@ReNNie said in [Information/Discussion] ScriptHookV & OpenIV Updates:

the update to 1.0.1493.1 was on 10.16.2018, it hasn't been even a whole week now on 10.23.2018 since then

the other times it took between one and two weeks generally so I wouldn't hold my breath just yet

Yeah, I saw they snuck in another patch, the 16th. Was it actually something substantial?! (Like After Hours), or just a bug-fix patch?

Oh well, time to restore again. You guys did make backups, right?!

@Maxro said in Game crashes when I have 15 or more peds installed with addonpeds:

@meimeiriver It was already 700! Should I make it higher to like
<PedMemoryMultiplier value="1200"/> ?

Too high isn't good either. 500 is already pushing it. That's a general rule of thumb for the gameconfig anyway: don't just start increasing stuff. Every bit of resources you grab, likely goes at the expense of something else. Take what you need, increase it gradually, and stop when you have a stable game.

@RVGOD said in Issues with House building and LODS:

Im making a house and im at 500 -700 objects but my fps is dropping at a a drastic rate !
from 70 fps to 25-20 at times . is this because of a lack of LODs or what ? If so , can someone help me out ? thank you!

I noticed the same thing in a build of mine. Even bought a GTX 1080 Ti, back when, thinking it would speed my game up. It didn't.

Since I built that huge mansion myself, with a custom props library of my own as well, I have full control over the ymap, and all its pertinent settings, like LOD distance, etc. So, even when setting these things to minimum, it made no difference: FPS simply drops when I even come near the build.

It would appear the number of drawcalls is either simply too big for my... CPU to handle (not GPU), and I have an i7 6700K, or the game is simply badly optimized for such conditions.

@Maxro said in Game crashes when I have 15 or more peds installed with addonpeds:

I still need help, please if anyone could or if they know someone who could help.

Specifically, you may want to tweak this gameconfig setting, to like

<PedMemoryMultiplier value="500"/>

@Sweetpepper said in Why can't I shop in the single player game for addon peds character?:

So I created a character in the mod menu and I want him to be able to shop in a single game. Tell me what to do.

You can probably interact with store personnel with the CharacterSwap mod; but trying to wear those clothes will either do nothing, or crash your game.

P.S. I don't think your question deserved a downvote, really. It was just a regular, legit inquiry.

LOL, I figured it out. Apparently -- thinking I was doing the right thing -- I had set the Interval too low, like

    	Interval = 100;

This causes the menu to no longer be drawn at every frame; hence, the flickering.

Okay, this is very weird. I am still on pre-After Hours patch (cuz I need Menyoo). I have a wee script I use to change voices. With some code like this:

        private void OnmainMenuItemSelect(UIMenu sender, UIMenuItem item, int index)
        {
            string voicename = ListOfVoices[voices.Index];
            Game.Player.Character.Voice = voicename;
            mainMenu.Visible = false;
            UI.ShowSubtitle("VOICE changed to " + ListOfNames[voices.Index], 2000);
        }

        private void OnKeyDown(object sender, KeyEventArgs e)
        {
            if (e.Shift && e.KeyCode == Keys.L && !modMenuPool.IsAnyMenuOpen())
            {
                mainMenu.Visible = !mainMenu.Visible;
            }
        }

        private void onTick(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (modMenuPool != null)
            {
                modMenuPool.ProcessMenus();
            }

Very old code! Been using it since ages! But now, when I press Shift-L, the menu starts flickering, on and off. Most peculiar! Like:

What the hell is going on here?! Did NativeUI become incompatible, at some point?!
