Using GET on different layer... - R@dioman - 02-07-2003
How would I use GET from an off-screen buffer.
ex:
dim VPage(31999) as integer
'draw stuff on VPage
Get (x1,y1)-(x2,y2), array
but from the VPage instead of the video address &HA000.
I'm guessing I have to define the segment to the VPage array or something like that.
Rel: I can't get your RelGet to work. When I use it, then use RelSprite, it screws up the picture by slanting it. Weird :???:

to an array, not from other video pages, at least from how I understand things. I'd say to play with GET and SCREEN to change video pages and see what happens except that, from what I can tell from how you're defining your array, you're using mode 13. Mode 13 only supports one video page.

How did Rel make his RelGet then? His function works on any layer specified. Or does it? Maybe that's why it won't work properly. Rel?
Well, you're on the right track. Rel *would* be the... - Glenn - 02-07-2003
best guy to ask about something he wrote.
And now that my memory returns, if I remember right, Plasma387 (if I got the "387" right) found a way to "fool" the computer into looking elsewhere besides the A000 video buffer. Do you just want to copy a block of memory from one place to another (i.e., your "GET array")? I have a memory transfer routine that does that.

I think I may just drop the numbers anyways... - Plasma - 02-08-2003
