My TinyPTC Extension Library (WARNING: LARGE IMAGES)

[KiZ]

Hey Nek, Nice going on the extension! I love it!

I was desperatly in need of a bitmap routine for FB, and i was running out of time... Then i found PTCexl. Good job man! Damn easy to use, useful functions, and easy to follow documentation.

Glad it was of use to someone

just a quick question... when I compile a program using PTCXL, the window isn't at the correct size (i.e. the workspace will be set at 640x480 if set as such, but the program window will be different). Hence there is blurring present where the image is anti-aliased. This doesn't happen in the demo provided. what am I doing wrong???

No clue. Could you post the code you're using to initialize the library?

[marinedalek]

Code:

'initialisation
const scr_width = 320
const scr_height = 240
'$include: "ptcxl.bi"
'$DYNAMIC
if ptc_init("PTC TEST") <> 1 then system
ptc_clsx 0
ptc_refresh
'main loop
do
    for i% = 0 to 10000
        z = int(rnd*255)
        ptc_pset(int(rnd*320),int(rnd*240),z,z,z)
    next i%
    ptc_refresh
loop until inkey$ <> ""
PTC_CLOSE

That's the whole program (just a test program really). It doesn't matter what I change the width & height to, the window is always a little out. I'm using XP Pro and vongodric's IDE.

Does the same thing for me too. Weird. Might be a problem in the import library though...

If you need a break from some productive programming.. I was wondering how much trouble it would be to get sprite arrays a la PP256. Or should I just do that myself?

[adosorken]

You could always use Advance.Put... converts .PUT images to BMP images.

See dude, I told you someone would use it.
