Yeah, but the contrast trick is annoying, especially if you have a significant amount of pics to buffer to, because someone might think their calc is messed up or something. Sure, you can explain it in the readme, but it just looks unprofessional. I have very specific reasons why I want that ability...

It doesn't seem quite good enough for XXR still, but any game that doesn't require absolutely 100% accuracy in keypresses would be fine I think. Oh, I'm not calling Dispgraph. CreatePic updates the lcd by itself. How it seems to go is this: CreatePic stores what's in the graph buffer, but automatica...

Hey tr1p1ea, did you improve the DI routine? It used to be that it was useful for games where you hold down the keys a lot, but it wasn't for games with rapid keypresses- with getkey, if you held down a key there would be a delay between it first recognizing the keypress and it recognizing the key w...

Make sure all the wires are isolated. Try running electrical tape between them to make sure they don't touch before taping the whole cable back up.

Ok, tr1p, just one more question... Some of these questions I've been asking are ones I might have asked before, I'm not sure, it's been a while since I used xLIB so now I'm finding problems I might already have found solutions for and forgotten. Anyway, the CreatePic function automatically updates ...

Ah, I see. And actually, strike my last about scrolling screen-sized sprites being buggy. The issue doesn't seem to appear anymore.

It's unfortunate Symantec bought out Sygate and discontinued the free version. Now there's no updates, meaning it's incompatible with Vista (my computer doesn't have Vista so that's no problem, but my brother's laptop does, which I often use for internet purposes).

Some day you will probably dream some code too :) (considering the number of days you are likely to live the chance it pretty high) I'll confess that if I have a knotty problem to solve, the idea for the algorithm will usually not come when I'm sitting behind a computer screen but - more often than...

Hmm, I was wondering, just how compatible is BasicBuilder with xLib? Does it support 256 pics?

Actually I never got around to asking you, tr1p, but one thing has been bugging me. When scrolling sprites with overwrite logic, why is it necessary to clear the screen each frame before drawing the sprites to prevent weird lines from showing up? Also, I need to get around to giving you code to demo...

Smoothscrolling can be done decently with xlib, actually. Just buffer your tilemap into pics first. The main problem is that displaying and scrolling very large (i.e., screen-sized) sprites is somewhat buggy at the moment.

Yes, your friendly neighborhood dysfunction is back. Sort of.
