Game running half the speed in SU 2013 vs SU 8
-
yep...
what else is taken away then???
john -
I don't think that DC's have any change in functionality or features from SU 8 to 2013.
I can't think of any reason why SU Make might act differently than SU Pro in terms of cpu processing. I'll ask around though, maybe someone has an idea. When I get a chance to test the code, I'll test it on both Pro and Make. Thanks everyone,
Chris

I didn't meant it seriously, I just meant it the ironic funny way... Like there were topics like "Does Trimble Listen", or
Or what does Trimble actually listen for?
But, I do love Trimble, I love the way they upgraded SU2013 to newer window Framework. It was actually what I wanted
Understood!
I do like ironic & funny comments a lot its just that sometimes I am little slow with them.

@Anton - yup, we're here listening! Trying to respond as best I can. thanks for pinning down the potential bottlenecks. I'll try to run some tests on them today and see if I can verify that I see the same behavior as you.
Chris Fullmer it means a lot that you are not only listening but also joining the conversation. I am very happy we got you as a Trimbler!

johnNot very happy to find out that some existing features for SU8 free version are being disabled for Make.
Idea should be to limit Make with new never before seen features so that people will be all over Pro version. That way it will not seam like a cheap marketing trick to bring people over to Pro version.
There will always be bad apples working for Trimble but I have hopes since we got people like Chris Fullmer trying to do the right thing.
Cheers!

How is configured by default "Sketchup 2013"?
I've noticed that changing this setting has strong effects on plugins that provide some kind of animation.
In Sketchup 8 an option that works best for me, is as followsI do not know how it is in 2013

Ok here is the snippet I ran from a multi-line webconsole:
model = Sketchup.active_model sel = model.selection gc = sel[0] t = Geom;;Transformation.new([1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,0.0,0.0,1.0,0.0,1.0]) puts "" stime = Time.now model.start_operation("no fast", false) 100000.times do gc.transform! t#.inverse end model.commit_operation puts "Transform Slow = " + (Time.now-stime).to_s stime = Time.now model.start_operation("fast", true) 100000.times do gc.transform! t#.inverse end model.commit_operation puts "Transform Fast = " + (Time.now-stime).to_s stime = Time.now model.start_operation("slow inverse", false) 1000000.times do t.inverse end model.commit_operation puts "Invert Transformation = " + (Time.now-stime).to_s stime = Time.now model.start_operation("slow", false) 100000.times do gc.transform! t.inverse end model.commit_operation puts "Combined Slow = " + (Time.now-stime).to_s stime = Time.now model.start_operation("fast", true) 100000.times do gc.transform! t#.inverse end model.commit_operation puts "Combined Fast = " + (Time.now-stime).to_s
Here are the results from 3 rounds of tests:
SU 8
` Transform Slow = 7.457
Transform Fast = 1.429
Invert Transformation = 0.55
Combined Slow = 7.442
Combined Fast = 1.437Transform Slow = 7.391
Transform Fast = 1.446
Invert Transformation = 0.555
Combined Slow = 7.458
Combined Fast = 1.437Transform Slow = 7.43
Transform Fast = 1.431
Invert Transformation = 0.553
Combined Slow = 7.479
Combined Fast = 1.456`SU 2013
` Transform Slow = 0.789
Transform Fast = 0.42
Invert Transformation = 0.529
Combined Slow = 0.841
Combined Fast = 0.422Transform Slow = 0.779
Transform Fast = 0.419
Invert Transformation = 0.53
Combined Slow = 0.841
Combined Fast = 0.419Transform Slow = 0.806
Transform Fast = 0.421
Invert Transformation = 0.532
Combined Slow = 0.834
Combined Fast = 0.42`So without the go_faster flag, I'm seeing SU 2013 doing the transformations about 10 times faster than it was in SU 8. Its even going about twice as fast as SU 8 with the go_faster flag.
Su 2013 appears to be about three times faster than 8 was when using the go_faster flag.
The transformation.inverse does not seem to have changed from SU 8 to 2013. I'm realizing I deleted the test from these results, but I had tested it with and without the go_faster flag and saw no difference. I could update it to do that again if it would help.
Does anyone see any holes in these tests? I could easily have overlooked something.

Your amazing Chris
Adding model.start_operation('KeyScene', true) when the user clicks the start button and calling model.commit_operation when user clicks the reset button seems to increase performance dramatically!I take all my thoughts back, and do say that Trimble SU2013 is an extreme progression!!!
Thank you SketchUp Team!
Thank you Trimble!
Thank you Chris! -

Here is how it looks on SketchUp 2013 Make
But! If I change that default setting that option is gone and the only way I can get back to it is if I reinstall again which is little weird.

Thanks for does tests its really good to know 2013 is faster giving your results. I am still confused as to way in my game the SketchUp 2013 version runs very slow compared to SketchUp 8.

Sounds like you made KeyScene work much faster...but was it faster than version 8?
Also I am not sure how can I add model.start_operation in Resballiza game to see if it will make it faster. Can you help me in that regards?
I am so thankful to all of you great job so far!

Yes, it's a little faster on SU2013 than on SU8

I sent you a PM with a fixed copy of both KeyScene and Resballiza

can you test on mac as well?
my results don't look so great.

Magnificent!
Now Resballiza is way faster than before in SketchUp 2013!
SketchUp 8 runs little bit faster still but not by much...I will study ways of optimazing code to make it faster but as is right now it is playable.
Again thanks Anton_S and Chris Fullmer for all the help!
-
Awesome, glad its improved! Thanks for working that into his code Anton, great!
@John - I have not yet tried it on Mac. I'll see if I get a chance here soon.

Sounds great, I will be the tester

It was interesting, I never actually knew that setting the second parameter of model.start_operation to true would actually improve the performance. That is an important parameter to know, especially when your dealing with geometry plugins.
