As this command is very essential for debugging(for me atleast), I looked through the command refrence to see if I could find it, but im at a loss as to finding a command which has the same effect as the "show object bounds" command found in dbpro collision. Is there any such command in Dark Physics?

Dark Physics has a Visual Remote debugger. it accessed under the tools submenu. However I have never bothered to use it.

I've used it. I much prefer seeing the object bounds in the game, but it's useful nonetheless.


Come see the WIP!

I've used the remote debugger; quite useful to see how the physics engine is building an object

but


If I use the debugger more than once or twice per session, i can guarentee a BSOD within the video driver. The extended crash report says that it was caused by a thread deadlock within the driver.

Anyone seen this?

I used the debugger a few times, but unless you have 2 monitors it's a real pain to use as you can never get enough space to attempt to fit 2 squares on, and the face you need to move the camera about is a little annoying, so some ingame commands would be alot more usefull.

I had a look at it last night, was quite useful. I'm sure Ill be using it a lot more then for this purpose. Cheers.
