Will this be for version 8 pixi as of v8.0.0-beta.6 it is not working

[xtianus79]

Hi will this work for version 8?

[ivanpopelyshev]

Its just tehre's no one who has time to do it :)

@bigtimebuddy @GoodBoyDigital any way to make a bounty on it from opencollective?

[xtianus79]

hi @ivanpopelyshev @bigtimebuddy and @GoodBoyDigital I am willing to pay a bounty if you guys will help. this is vital to my project.

I'm also highly interested in this. As the transform-independent line width feature from this package is vital to my project.

[bigtimebuddy]

@xtianus79 if you are interested in sponsoring this plugin, please see this. Happy to facilitate if we can find a hero to do the work.

I am actually looking at this to see what I can do myself. But I believe any PRs can not proceed until those @pixi packages for version 8 are published first on npm. (currently there's only pixi.js@pre-release)

[bigtimebuddy]

@pixi packages are not being shipped for v8 and are being deprecated. Only pixi.js will be shipped for v8

I was really looking forward to this, but it then seems that the built-in Graphics of the latest Pixi v8 is already good enough if we have something like this:

const app = new Application();
await app.init({
    // A combination of the following three gives pretty good rendering
    antialias: true,
    resolution: 2,
    autoDensity: true,
    ...
});

I made an example mimicking the "Joint" example. It seems to me that the result is comparably good to Pixi v7 + graphics-smooth. So do we still need to work on v8 support? What do you guys think?

[ivanpopelyshev]

antialias:true + resolution:2 is a performance sink, that's why graphics-smooth exists. For pixi-v8 we need custom graphics batchers first, I'm waiting on this thing: pixijs/pixijs#10702

Is there some update about this issue? I'm using the library to dynamically create sprites that I then use as textures and it's blocking me from updating to V8. If this won't be worked on, is there an alternative I could use to keep the smooth/antialias look on the textures?

[MuTsunTsai]

@ivanpopelyshev So accordingly Pixi now supports custom batchers (since v8.4 actually) and pixijs/pixijs#10702 has been closed. Hopefully that means we will see v8 support soon. I'm more than willing if there's anything I can help, as this has been blocking my project from updating Pixi for so long.
