Calling SDL_RenderPresent

That?s not true. Check this out:

Only a bare handful of drivers/GPUs on the desktop are limited to 1024x1024 textures - the RAGE 128 pro for example.On Feb 22, 2014, at 8:34 PM, mattbentley wrote:

:open_mouth: That sounds really curious. Can you give some examples of such platforms?

Most Intel graphics chipsets prior to 2010? Around 1024x1024 limitation.

Most of those 1024 results were GDI Genericā€¦ Does that mean what Windows
gives you by default if you have no vendor driver installed?

Yeah. It only implements OpenGL 1.1, too.On Feb 22, 2014, at 10:33 PM, Jonathan Dearborn wrote:

When does is come standard with specialized drivers for a long time hasnā€™t
it? Iā€™m pretty sure thatā€™s in there for safe mode where you can ask it to
strip off all of the special driversOn Feb 22, 2014 8:36 PM, ā€œAlex Szpakowskiā€ wrote:

SDL_GetPrefPath

Returns a UTF-8 string of the user directory in platform-dependent
notation. NULL if thereā€™s a problem (creating directory failed, etc.).

This function gladly returns the correct path for me (C:\Users\My
Name\AppData\Roaming\company\game name)
But, it does not create any directories under \Roaming, so that my
SDL_RWwrite() fails.
I assume that SDL_GetPrefPath() creates my desired directories. If Iā€™m
wrong, what is the safest way for this, for example if I want to ship my
game?

Letā€™s see, SDL_GetPrefPath behaves on platforms as follows:

UNIX: The path is created piecemeal (for loop, mkdir)
Win: No path is created
Haiku: The path is created (system API create_directory)
Darwin: The path is created piecemeal (for loop, mkdir)
dummy: The function does nothing and is unsupported :slight_smile:

As expected, Windows has most in common with the dummy path. I think
you found a bug.

It should create them, but I think we have a bug open for this
problem. Weā€™ll fix it for 2.0.2.
