This was purchased on June 1, 2018 directly from Apple. It is their latest model.
Can you provide a screenshot of what you’re seeing?
In this screenshot, you can see 2 lines of text. If you comment-out the plugin in build.settings, you will see 3 lines of text.
Troy,
I’m looking at your code and was wondering. Can you try this for me:
local function toSnapObj(dispObj, x, y) if system.getInfo("platform")=="Android" then snapIdx=snapIdx + 1 if snapIdx == 500 then snapIdx=1 end local fileName="tmp"..snapIdx..".png" display.save(dispObj, { filename=fileName, baseDir=system.CachesDirectory, captureOffscreenArea=false, backgroundColor={0,0,0,0} }) img=display.newImage(fileName, system.CachesDirectory) else -- iOS and Simulator on Mac OS img=display.capture(dispObj, {captureOffscreenArea=true}) end img.x=x img.y=y -- CHANGE BEGINS timer.performWithDelay(60, function() display.remove(dispObj) end ) -- CHANGE ENDS return img end
I have found that deleting the the same frame as a display.save() or capture() sometimes causes issues. Waiting one or two frames usually does the trick.
Also, FYI, this is unnecessary:
dispObj=nil
That variable is temporary so you don’t need to clear it. It will go away and clear its reference to the object as soon as the function ends.
You may be wondering, yeah, “but why does the behavior change when I comment out plugin”. Probably a timing change is all. i.e. Just random luck that helped you encounter the issue.
I seriously doubt the plugin itself has any effect on the rendering of text, especially since it doesn’t run or do anything in the simulator. Its possible, but … well let’s see what the delay I suggested does for you.
@roaminggamer, thanks for your time on this. I had already ruled out the delay, but I tested your recommended change anyway. No luck. I also changed it to a higher value, too - nothing different.
@Rob, I commented out the display.remove line just to see what would happen - please notice that you can see the corruption of the original text of the first line.
@Corona, what’s up with this issue? Can’t you duplicate it? Although my example is simple, this happens all over my app and it looks as if it is poking into random memory - as I said, even once caused a hard crash on my Mac. Something in how the graphics are being displayed - its very serious. Sometimes, Corona just sits for 5-10 seconds with the wheel spinning in simulator, too. Please help.
And nearly every button has its edges corrupted in my game, even the game title is corrupted.
With great respect I want to comment and say that I have run the code without any problem with the hello world config lua in a $499 Mac Mini. I also wanted to say that the “screenshot” of the error seems like a child is playing with Windows paint, from the point of view of a graphic artist.
I’ll have to check with the team again. I don’t know that we have access to a Mac that can reproduce what you’re seeing, but let me re-ask.
Rob
@troylyndon
Can you try this code and see what you got?
I got an oval in my mac mini. But I got a blackscreen in my macbook pro (13 inch 2017 with no touch bar).
Yes, I also have a black screen.
@Rob and @CoronaLabs,
The example code attached above by @bc_new_theway is a great example of what doesn’t work for both of us, and it’s as simple as trying to fill an oval with a gradient color.
My MacBook Pro 2012 displays the oval with a nice soft blue gradient. But both of our MacBook Pro 2017 (latest editions) FAIL and show nothing but a BLACK SCREEN.
Until CoronaLabs fixes this, I am UNABLE to update my game. THIS IS SERIOUS, don’t you think?
It is serious Troy. I’m trying to escalate the issue.
@Rob and @CoronaLabs, with the new release of MacBook Pro 2018 just 9 days ago, there are now TWO of the newest models of MacBook Pro (2017 & 2018) where Corona is broken. This thread includes two different graphic rendering errors so that you can duplicate the errors. My app, which uses many similar graphic rendering techniques, HARD-CRASHES my MacBook Pro and makes Corona SDK completely unusable. That’s right, CORONA SIMULATOR causes a HARD-CRASH of my Mac system. Woah!
For anyone with a similar problem, here is a temporarily solution IF YOU STILL HAVE YOUR OLD COMPUTER. I use my new MacBook Pro to edit the code, but to run it, I have my old MacBook Pro connected via the shared folder (so there is still only one version of the code). Then, I run the code although my older system accesses the files on the new system. Sure, loading is a bit slower to test this way, but the fact that it renders fine on my older system does allow me to view new changes before updating on the app stores - and I’m no longer, completely stuck. But I realize that not everyone has this option available to them.
I love Corona and the Team. And I hope Rob is able to excelate this issue internally. I’m sure he will update this thread once it is addressed.
Did you buy a 2018 model? I don’t see any references in this thread to anything other than 2017 13"'s having this issue. One of our developers with a 2017 15" model cannot reproduce these issues. We are having problems reproducing the error.
You’re now talking about a hard crash. Can you describe this? Are there crash logs that can be found that go with the crash?
Also just as a test can you try the various shader precision settings documented here: http://docs.coronalabs.com/guide/basics/configSettings/index.html#shader-precision
Rob
Also Troy, do you have a .zip file with your sample text project that’s glitching? I thought you had shared one before but I can’t find it in the thread.
Rob
Hi, I was searching for responses because I have the exact same problem and found this thread. Is not only happening with the new Macbook pro, but also on a Macbook Pro 13 from 2016 (non Touch Bar), with Intel Iris Graphics 540 and High Sierra (10.13.4).
In the best case, I have light or severe image corruption, but practically every time I try to run my game the system (OS X) freezes or directly get a Kernel Panic. I have also a Macbook Pro 15" from 2016 too (same High Sierra version), and when is running with the discrete ATI graphics card I have no issues in the simulator, so clearly is related to the Intel integrated card. (All tests done with latest Corona Daily Build: 018.3332)
@Rob & @CoronaLabs,

per your request, here is the sample zip of the text rendering bug: www.mrgreatlife.com/macBookProCoronaError.zip
-
per your request, here is the crash log from when the Corona Simulator HARD CRASHES on my MacBookPro 2017 - last edition, purchased June 1, 2018.
