hi all,

i’m trying to update the Codea implementation of the Lua runtime - basically the current one in the resources link only works with older runtime 2.5 , updating there is one place i’m stuck on - the Codea implementation uses the RegionAttachment and MeshAttachment

updateWorldVertices(slot)

but the newest runtime doesn’t have this function anymore, it’s now

computeWorldVertices (bone, worldVertices

in the old function the vertices were part of the RegionAttachment/MeshAttachment self variables and they were returned by the function which are used in Codea to build out it’s mesh

so what is the way to get these vertices now? does this implementation need to be reworked entirely or can i get it to work with just a few changes? the older runtime still works it’s just has a bug i’d like to see if the new ones fixed it

old runtime -

function RegionAttachment:updateWorldVertices (slot, premultipliedAlpha)
   local skeleton = slot.bone.skeleton
   local skeletonColor = skeleton.color
   local slotColor = slot.color
   local regionColor = self.color
   local alpha = skeletonColor.a * slotColor.a * regionColor.a
   local multiplier = alpha
   if premultipliedAlpha then multiplier = 1 end
   local color = self.tempColor
   color:set(skeletonColor.r * slotColor.r * regionColor.r * multiplier,
      skeletonColor.g * slotColor.g * regionColor.g * multiplier,
      skeletonColor.b * slotColor.b * regionColor.b * multiplier,
      alpha)

   local vertices = self.vertices
   local offset = self.offset
   local bone = slot.bone
   local x = bone.worldX
   local y = bone.worldY
   local a = bone.a
   local b = bone.b
   local c = bone.c
   local d = bone.d
   local offsetX = 0
   local offsetY = 0

   offsetX = offset[OX1]
   offsetY = offset[OY1]
   vertices[X1] = offsetX * a + offsetY * b + x 

---

 br
   vertices[Y1] = offsetX * c + offsetY * d + y
   vertices[C1R] = color.r
   vertices[C1G] = color.g
   vertices[C1B] = color.b
   vertices[C1A] = color.a

   offsetX = offset[OX2]
   offsetY = offset[OY2]
   vertices[X2] = offsetX * a + offsetY * b + x 

---

 bl
   vertices[Y2] = offsetX * c + offsetY * d + y
   vertices[C2R] = color.r
   vertices[C2G] = color.g
   vertices[C2B] = color.b
   vertices[C2A] = color.a

   offsetX = offset[OX3]
   offsetY = offset[OY3]
   vertices[X3] = offsetX * a + offsetY * b + x 

---

 ul
   vertices[Y3] = offsetX * c + offsetY * d + y
   vertices[C3R] = color.r
   vertices[C3G] = color.g
   vertices[C3B] = color.b
   vertices[C3A] = color.a

   offsetX = offset[OX4]
   offsetY = offset[OY4]
   vertices[X4] = offsetX * a + offsetY * b + x 

---

 ur
   vertices[Y4] = offsetX * c + offsetY * d + y
   vertices[C4R] = color.r
   vertices[C4G] = color.g
   vertices[C4B] = color.b
   vertices[C4A] = color.a

   return vertices
end

new runtime

function RegionAttachment:computeWorldVertices (bone, worldVertices, offset, stride)
   offset = offset + 1
   local vertexOffset = self.offset
   local x = bone.worldX
   local y = bone.worldY
   local a = bone.a
   local b = bone.b
   local c = bone.c
   local d = bone.d
   local offsetX = 0
   local offsetY = 0

   offsetX = vertexOffset[7]
   offsetY = vertexOffset[8]
   worldVertices[offset] = offsetX * a + offsetY * b + x 

---

 br
   worldVertices[offset + 1] = offsetX * c + offsetY * d + y
   offset = offset + stride

   offsetX = vertexOffset[1]
   offsetY = vertexOffset[2]
   worldVertices[offset] = offsetX * a + offsetY * b + x 

---

 bl
   worldVertices[offset + 1] = offsetX * c + offsetY * d + y
   offset = offset + stride

   offsetX = vertexOffset[3]
   offsetY = vertexOffset[4]
   worldVertices[offset] = offsetX * a + offsetY * b + x 

---

 ul
   worldVertices[offset + 1] = offsetX * c + offsetY * d + y
   offset = offset + stride

   offsetX = vertexOffset[5]
   offsetY = vertexOffset[6]
   worldVertices[offset] = offsetX * a + offsetY * b + x 

---

 ur
   worldVertices[offset + 1] = offsetX * c + offsetY * d + y
end

codea implementation

 if attachment.type == spine.AttachmentType.region then
    texture = attachment.region.renderObject.texture
    vertices = attachment:updateWorldVertices(slot, true)
    triangles = QUAD_TRIANGLES
elseif attachment.type == spine.AttachmentType.mesh then
    texture = attachment.region.renderObject.texture
    vertices = attachment:updateWorldVertices(slot, true)
    triangles = attachment.triangles
end

if texture and vertices and triangles then
    pushStyle()
    

local faces = {}
local uvs = {}
local colors = {}
local blend_mode = slot.data.blendMode

if blend_mode == spine.BlendMode.additive then blendMode(ADDITIVE)
elseif blend_mode == spine.BlendMode.multiply then blendMode(MULTIPLY)
elseif blend_mode == spine.BlendMode.screen then blendMode(ONE, ONE_MINUS_SRC_COLOR)
else blendMode(NORMAL) end

 blend_mode == spine.BlendMode.normal and undefined

        table.insert(faces, vert)
        table.insert(uvs, uv)

i got this to work with the latest runtime

      local vertices = {}
      

  if attachment.type == spine.AttachmentType.region then
    texture = attachment.region.renderObject.texture
    uvs = attachment.uvs
    


---

vertices = attachment:updateWorldVertices(slot, true)
        attachment:computeWorldVertices(slot.bone, vertices, 0, 2)
        triangles = QUAD_TRIANGLES
      elseif attachment.type == spine.AttachmentType.mesh then
        texture = attachment.region.renderObject.texture
        


---

vertices = attachment:updateWorldVertices(slot, true)
        uvs = attachment.uvs
        attachment:computeWorldVertices(slot, 0, attachment.worldVerticesLength, vertices, 0, 2)
        triangles = attachment.triangles
      end
      if texture and vertices and triangles then
        pushStyle()
        local faces = {}
        local uvz = {}
        local colors = {}
        local blend_mode = slot.data.blendMode
        

    if blend_mode == spine.BlendMode.additive then blendMode(ADDITIVE)
    elseif blend_mode == spine.BlendMode.multiply then blendMode(MULTIPLY)
    elseif blend_mode == spine.BlendMode.screen then blendMode(ONE, ONE_MINUS_SRC_COLOR)
    else blendMode(NORMAL) end

basically just had to figure out that vertices are now built from being passed in and the color is no longer part of the values

the bug that i saw is gone with the update BUT i tested out rendering 20 spine boys riding raptors and the performance was sluggish, looks like i’ll stuck to png frames and didn’t need the runtime after all
