ok, so after hours of debugging I found the memory leak in my game to be from dbMakeVector3.

I searched the forum and people seem to be aware of this problem. Is there any word on a possible fix for this bug?

Thanks,
- Wes

There is a command to delete a vector. Maybe using this will remove your memory leak.

My guess is, that dbMakeVector creates an object, so it allocates memmory.
When you don't use the vector anymore, you should delete it, such that the memory can be released. Or you reuse it!

Yeh I use: dbDeleteVector3(1);

right after im done with it, but task manager says I'm still leaking memory. It's in my main loop so it gets called alot.

As a quick fix, I just reuse it now, but I was just curious on if I'm using it incorrectly or if the possible bug never got fixed

Ok then its obviously a bug. I never noticed this because I always reused the vector in DBPro.

You should post a code snippet showing this bug in the Bug forum! thanks
