Startup window bug

by Ron Nelson · in Torque Game Engine Advanced · 12/31/2007 (7:06 pm) · 3 replies

For somereason when I start the engine, the window is transparent until the startup screen displays.

Does anyone else see this?

If so, has there been a fix for it yet?

I see the same thing, but I can't answer why.
It is annoying, but I have a long way to go on my projects before it is an issue here.

Yeah, it would nice if we just got a splash screen, a la Unreal. Until its ready to start-up.

I think it's a matter of design. Some commercial games also have this.

Either you:

* 1. Show a splashscreen before initialization happens.
* 2. You delay creating the window until you've initialized.
