Re: Wouldn't this game run better on Java
Short Answer: No.ene723 wrote:Question: I was just wondering, but wouldn't java be more capable of running Minetest?
Long Answer: No. Once Minetest hits the same level of development and optimisations that Minecraft has been subject to, we should be a tad bit faster.
Simple Technical Answer: Java runs on a VM thingy, that actually increases overhead on simple processing. Or something to that regard.
Troll Answer: Yes.
7:42 PM - Bauglio: I think if you go to staples you could steal firmware from a fax machine that would run better than win10 does on any platform
7:42 PM - Bauglio: so fudge the stable build
7:43 PM - Bauglio: get the staple build

Re: Wouldn't this game run better on Java
Probably about the same. New JVMs optimize the JIT (Just In Time compiling) enough that Java's about as fast as any other compiled language these days. For some tasks it can be a bit slower than C/C++, and for some it can actually be a bit faster due to things like dynamic optimization in response to run-time profiling. Computation is about the same. Access to large blocks of data is often a bit slower because, for example, array access always does bounds checking (good for security; not necessarily ideal for performance).

Re: Wouldn't this game run better on Java
If you want a free/libre Minecraft-style game using modern Java and OpenGL, take a look at Terasology.
Re: Wouldn't this game run better on Java
Generally it will run faster on a computer

Re: Wouldn't this game run better on Java
Wouldn't minetest run a lot faster if a better graphics engine was used?

Re: Wouldn't this game run better on Java
Irrlicht is known to be lightweight and fast. Unless we write our own graphics engine, the competition probably won't be any faster.Hybrid Dog wrote:Wouldn't minetest run a lot faster if a better graphics engine was used?
We just happen to have a lot of CPU bottlenecks.
