I tried to create a new GameWindow in VB.NET using the OpenTK library.
The game window works fine, I can maximize it or change its size perfectly fine, but it takes a few seconds for the window to appear in the taskbar and it's very laggy when I right-click it in the taskbar.
I tried
- changing the update/render time to 1 update per second which doesn't change anything
- starting the GameWindow in a seperate thread
- not to use ILMerge. Doesn't change anything.
Source Code
Module Main (Entry point)
Imports OpenTK
Imports System.Threading
Module Main
Public Sub Main()
Dim MainGameWindow As New MyGameWindow
MainGameWindow.Run(30, 60) 'Tried changing this to MainGameWindow.Run(1, 1)
End Sub
End Module
Class MyGameWindow (GameWindow)
Imports OpenTK
Imports OpenTK.Graphics
Imports OpenTK.Graphics.OpenGL
Public Class MyGameWindow
Inherits GameWindow
Private GlLoaded As Boolean = False
Public Sub New()
MyBase.New(820, 520)
Title = "Game Test"
Icon = My.Resources.gameicon
End Sub
Private Sub MyGameWindow_Load(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Load
GlLoaded = True
End Sub
Private Sub MyGameWindow_RenderFrame(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As OpenTK.FrameEventArgs) Handles Me.RenderFrame
If Not GlLoaded Then Return
'Nothing here yet...
End Sub
Private Sub MyGameWindow_UpdateFrame(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As OpenTK.FrameEventArgs) Handles Me.UpdateFrame
If Not GlLoaded Then Return
'Nothing here yet...
End Sub
Private Sub MyGameWindow_Resize(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Me.Resize
'Nothing here yet...
End Sub
End Class
Environment
- Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit (Service Pack 1)
- Target framework is set to
.NET Framework 2.0. Changing it to 4.0 doesn't fix the issue.
