bobweaverHello everyone02:54
bobweaverjhodapp,  did you see that I was able to port to NUX 3.0 and Unity 6 ?02:54
bobweaverit works like a fart in church02:54
bobweaverwho ever invented NUX must must must be a game developer as this code is so much like a game dev02:56
bobweaverbut for real this is going to be real real flippin hard02:58
bobweaverthere is a million lesss options02:59
jhodappbobweaver: nice work man, if you have things that are missing please let me know...I can forward it on to the Nux guys12:30
bobweaverOh it is so so so unstable I can only get the background to show up and the indicators12:31
bobweavermaybe a week or too12:31
bobweaverI am thinking about trying to port all the qml work that that is to xbmc or myth bunut12:31
bobweaverlet me work on it for like 4 more days and I will push12:32
bobweaverI see that you can use qml to design skins on mythbuntu12:33
jhodappcool, it'll be good to have you pounding on Nux a bit...I've been writing a test app to get familiar with Nux and also pound on it and provide the devs feedback12:34
bobweaverit is a sharp learning curve so far12:35
bobweaverlike a month to get a simple hello world going with button12:36
jhodappbobweaver: it took me a day to get a helloworld app written12:37
bobweaverHere is the thing I am not sure where this is all going in order to run this (virtual I am ) I had to butcher unity12:42
bobweaverso what I did was kinda just checkout unity and nux  then start ripping down canvas and then started painting12:46
bobweaverI am going to get back to it now12:47
bobweaverLearned alot going to try from the start and learn from last time ;)12:47
bobweaverso what I am trying to say is that it would kill Unity12:51
jhodappNux will?12:51
bobweaverno the whole design used nux and what not just like unity2d12:52
bobweaverthe dah in unity3d12:52
bobweaversorry12:52
bobweaverdash *12:52
bobweaverwhat I did was kill the whole Unity 3d desktop and start building one for scratch well kinda12:53
bobweaverusing code that was there12:53
bobweavertrying to make it so that there is no qml code12:53
bobweaverthat is the thing that the team is doing correct ?12:53
bobweavernux is just like buttons and and plugin libs12:54
bobweaverkinda ^^12:54
jhodappyes basically12:55
bobweaverso the real question is how to make a declaritive state that is like the formfactor ?12:55
bobweaverabove my pay grade ;)12:55
jhodappNux is a higher level abstraction on top of OpenGL12:55
bobweaveryup12:55
bobweaverhard to explain12:55
bobweaverso this is what I am doing please tell me if this is wrong lol12:55
bobweaverone get nux 3 and unity6  rip apart unity 3d and nux to get the Unity 3d to look like the qml and also act like the qml that is the old work12:56
bobweaverlike in unity6/dash/something just do like12:58
bobweavernux::View::PostDraw(GfxContext, force_draw);12:58
jhodappbobweaver: I don't understand the ripping unity3d apart12:58
bobweaverchanging the over all painting that is going on in Unity612:58
bobweaverlike how nux paints all the stuff12:59
bobweaverbut this means that Unity is now only Ubuntu tv12:59
jhodappno, this effort is across the board13:00
bobweaverwhat does that mean ""across the board " sorry13:04
jhodappUbuntu desktop, TV and any other things using Unity13:04
bobweaverSo What I am doing will not work ?13:04
jhodappnot sure because I don't understand exactly what you're doing13:05
bobweaverso I am taking Unity 3d and making it look like Ubuntu tv13:06
bobweaverbut it is killing Unity13:06
jhodappwhy are you doing that exactly?13:06
bobweaverI am sure that there is a work around about this but I am not sure how this would work. Like is ubuntu tv standalone ?13:06
bobweaverre-writing Unity 3d13:06
bobweaverto look like Ubuntu tv13:07
bobweaverand act that is13:07
jhodappubuntu tv will be standalone, but it will share the same unity code as the desktop13:07
bobweaverbut painting over it is all right ?13:08
bobweaverstill using the framework but just changing the design13:08
bobweaverKinda like a new desktop manager that is unity just painted different13:09
bobweaverup keep might be hard thou13:09
jhodappbobweaver: yes, basically13:15
tgm4883jhodapp, does it really need to be standalone? Can't it be extra packages that can be added to a ubuntu desktop?14:18
jhodappyes, when I say standalone I mean executables14:18
tgm4883ok14:24
tgm4883Saviq, any updates for the weekly updates blog?20:05
