100,000 😮 That's how many copies of CRUMB Circuit Simulator have now been sold on Steam. I keep looking at the number and it still doesn't feel real. CRUMB started as, and still is a one-person project. It went out in November 2022 with no publisher and no marketing, just a virt
I have been super busy posting on Facebook with new developments and features and have neglected to keep everyone up to date here! CRUMB 2.0 is shaping up nicely and has the potential to become the single most powerful and accessible electronics simulator! But first to answer a c
Good evening ladies and gentlemen! I’m continuing to pour my life into this next version of CRUMB and I have a little something to share with you all! View game page It is now possible to connect real hardware to CRUMB and interact with it, in this example we can flash an Arduino
Just another quick update everyone! So excited for this one. I always had a vision for the original CRUMB to run DOOM, but the Arduino I simulated was not the right component, nor was there enough simulation power/optimisation to even dream about fully simulated ARM architecture
Time for another CRUMB 2.0 update boys and girls!! This time a much requested feature from the last few years, mechanical/physical components! Even better, you can back feed values into the simulator to accurately simulate loading and other important circuit dynamics. There will
Not just eye candy... An entirely new and revamped wiring system will make it easier to prototype and iterate quickly layouts and connections. Prototyping jumpers offers a fast way to create connections and adjust them on the fly. Wire routing with small jumpers has had a facelif
Good early morning everyone! (GMT+1 😂) As always, smashing through development at all hours and have got a little something to show! The Arduino implementation in the current version of CRUMB is not up to standard. It was an architectural decision on how I implemented it at the
Just a quick little preview screenshot from the development build 🤩 I will post a major update soon regarding release for 2.0. But honestly, just look at that.... A proper Scope, showing trigger edges. A Multimeter with true to life options 😁 I listened to all of the feedback a
Program shaders from within CRUMB Some people may look at this update and ask the question "why do we need this?"... And the answer is very simple. One of the core concepts and non-negotiable features that CRUMB 2.0 needs to have, is for users to have the ability to create compon
EDIT: I have re-written this post due to some interesting comments that it looked like it was written by AI. Strange time we live in, but hopefully this reads like a normal person now 😒 Good morning/afternoon/evening everyone! A massive welcome to all the new members of the comm
Good morning/afternoon/evening to everyone! First of all, welcome to all the new users of CRUMB! And a big heartfelt thank you to everyone who has been with CRUMB since the beginning and patiently waiting for the next ground-breaking update. I appreciate all of your comments, goo
After the bold decision to leave Unity and switch to Godot for development, the next major iteration of CRUMB will benefit from fully native customisable docking windows and layouts. With the added benefit of built-in code editing functionality, bringing custom components one ste
Hello everyone, Contrary to some of the recent reviews saying the project is dead, it is not... I just happen to be working on this in my absolute spare time between work, family and living! I have had a few comments, discussions and reviews highlighting differences found between
Fixed memory leak from the C++ MatrixMath.dll when running large complex circuits. As users are starting to build larger, the solving logic runs through a few more steps to converge and one of the steps had an overlooked leak. CRUMB 2.0 update: Still hard at work, but I think I a
Slight change to the convergence code of the Diode Element as there were some unique circuit configurations unable to solve, causing a memory leak as the Math Engine tries to compensate
More fixes! 74HC245 fixed issue with the DIR pin not functioning correctly and causing a crash due to matrix error Corrected pin labels for 74HC245 and 74HC273 Fix issue with a single remaining pin label after a component delete with pin hints enabled All the best Mike
I have removed support for AVX2 for the time being as it would appear that some users do not have support from their CPUs. The performance loss is negligible, if any, and should stop crashing for affected users! As always, please get in touch with any issues that you may be havin
In the last 24 hours since 1.3 was released, a couple of errors have been noted. I have worked hard with several users to isolate the problems. I honestly cannot thank them enough for their patience. I have updated a few key areas, which should significantly improve stability and
Better late than never... Simulation speed was always the limiting factor for the future of CRUMB. No matter how much work I put into other areas, I was always hit with the same issue and I was not able to achieve the vision that I wanted for CRUMB. Initially I had said that I ha
Hello everyone, just a quick update on progress! I am for the most part complete with the speed update, it is actually now possible to run some of the circuits at 96,000Hz which is great news... especially if you want to create circuits for audio/analog processing 😍 However, I a
