goban's Issues

Interface not working on my Windows 10 pc

I've been trying to run the app, but what I'm getting is this:

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you very much in advance!

Would you consider porting this to Unreal Engine 4.x?

Hi, Unreal Engine (the world most popular gaming/3D real time engine) uses C++ too...
I have found much better graphics of Go set here: https://www.unrealengine.com/marketplace/en-US/product/go-set

Would you be able to help to integrate this into Unreal Engine and leverage the KataGo AI? I already asked the developer of the Go set and the KataGo developer and they are both okay with anyone using their stuff to create a goban 3D in Unreal Engine that is fully playable..

I have a "DF-41 Simulator" on Steam that has a goban in the underground command center of the nuclear missile sites, and wanted to make the Goban come to live and by fully intractable and playable rather than just a static mesh...

Feature request: Add shortcut key for changing human player to engine and engine to human player.

Sometimes, when human player didn't know what was the right move, the player might resort to a engine for the next move and want to change it back to human after the move had been played. It was a bothering action in some complicated situations when you are busy at going around between human and engines. I suggest adding a shortcut key to do this, B for black player, W for white player.

Feature request: Show gtp infomation on the interface

To the author: I use a tail program to show katago's gtp infomation, then I can evaluate the move just played. The interface of goban is so nice that let the tail program laying on it seems to be a very annoying thing. Just see you are working on a analying function, can't wait to test it. :)

could you give b8fb3a4a(54.92%) more match games?

now it had 417, while
30bccf1d (54.10%) had 427
b38738aa (54.48%) had 424

How to map a kibtiz shortcut with space bar ?

Usually, 32 is for the space bar, but in this case, it didn't work, so I had to use the shortcut key "c" ( "reset camera") as a substitution, in the config file something like this {"key": 14, "command": "play once"}

Have you made some progress?

Waiting for the new version.......

Board not cleared in katago engine

It gets confused when starting new game.

GTP docs on boardsize command:

Set the board size to NxN and clear the board.

In katago, board does not get cleared if size is set to same value as before.
We shall explicitly call clear_board when starting new game.

Default view

How do I make the default 3d view?

I'm trying to edit vertex.glsl, but it's hard to do it at random.

${PROJECT_SOURCE_DIR}/src/goban.rc is missing

Forgot to commit it?

Automate Linux Build

Including all necessary dependencies.
Use git submodules when possible?

Captured stones are not visible

most likely after bcce88d

Real goban rectangular not square?

I have come across this stackexchange topic: Why are the boards not square?.

Should the virtual goban be rectangular?
Lines spaced differently in each axis?

Configurable komi

Quick fix needed while waiting for GUI redesign
Based on lightvector/KataGo#224.

How to move the camera?

Thanks for your great working.

Right press the mouse, I can rotate; scroll the mouse, I can zoom.
How can I change the camera postion more freedom?

Actually, I try to make a program to recognize the SGF from Image.
I need more data to train/test the model.
I will open its source, when it almost done.

Hundreds of thanks!

how to add another engine?

for example, leelazero

Random noise generator in the shader not working on a brand new laptop

Intel UHD 620 integrated graphics.
The shader is working but results in flat textures, completely regular wood pattern.

Observed on Windows 10, works on the same graphics in Linux.

Consider replacing
float rand(vec3 v) { return floatConstruct(hash(floatBitsToUint(v))); }
with a different function, see ashima/webgl-noise.

Screenshot for reference:

Notice flat solid carpet, regular wood texture and darker white stones.

Constructive criticism from reddit

Someone posted a thread and then deleted, here is what I remember from reactions:

• captured stones should go into lids, not cups
  Good point!
• new stones could be offered in cups
  Added to backlog, needs some extra logic to naturally pour them in.
• flat mediocre textures, unrealistic lightning
  Shaders are open source, can be tweaked anytime to one's liking.
  I am planning to refocus on graphics later when some gameplay-wise important features are added.
• number of captured stones should be displayed on HUD
  Yes it should, it just temporarily disappeared during menu redesign.
• zero use for 3D goban
  Actually I agree, there is not much added value of 3D.
  Nevertheless I preferer to use my goban when flirting with the game of go; I know it may be just me. :-)
• Tabletop Simulator has been around for long
  I am aware of it, it has very good graphics and physics.
  Have not tried it yet, I do not expect it to support GTP go engines nor to implement go rules.

Violating ko rule breaks the game

Gnugo responds with "illegal move" and the game loop fails to recover.

Contact the author of sgf library

and either add it as a regular dependency or replace with something else.
it is no more publicly available at @jdkato

how to run this program in mac ox?

The menu bar should be like this.

when the sgf function could be added?

Goban is a amazing phenomenon and we like it. However, there is no any 'save' function available in current version, and when will this be added ?

thanks

Suggestion on appearance, data missing(?) in version 0.0.3

First of all, thank you for building this lovely Goban program.

I love the idea displaying dead stones on bowl's cap(not so sure how they are called in English). However, it is more common to place stone bowls and caps in the other way around(please see attachment). It would be grateful if you can implement like attachment someday :)

And somehow I cannot run Red Carpet and Minimalistic Flat skin on version 22-01-05 (only shows black screen, but program still runs), while version 21-05-31 has no problem.

Undo not working correctly

unsure on how to run

Unsure how to run my own engine on goban, I have placed an engine in the engines folder but it has not shown up on the engine selection
