In the top left corner the FPS is showing white blocks, they move around a bit, like something is happening, but no actualy numbers are shown. I think it's because I'm using Graphics.drawString(java.lang.String str, float x, float y).

Er, just to clarify, it shows in some of my BasicGameStates, but not in the ones I'm using drawString

Yeah that happens to me also in loading state, but Kev can't go on to just "it happens", we need to find the cause or better runnable an example.

Well, I don't know if it seems to be tied to DrawString specifically, but it seems to be when i've got DrawString tied to a variable location.

Like, I've got it mouseMoved checking to see if the mouse x and y are within a certain area, and I'm drawing a string at the cursor location if the cursor is within that area.

temp is an image on the screen.


And in render I'm drawing a string at mousePosX, mousePosY. When the cursor is off the image the fps is fine. when the cursor is over the image, the fps gets white-blocked out. If I notice anything more, or can narrow it down, I'll write back

Is the screen just not being cleared between updates?

Is the font for the FPS not loaded without deferred mode on?

Kev

yes, my case is in deferred loading, so that's right, font must not be loaded.. although it's fine during the actual loading process, but when all resources load then it gets corrupt... nothing important for the game right now so it's on hold
