Hrm…sounds like the definition is overriding the prototype.
No, what it is is that the SDL_WriteLE32 (And the Write32 it’s based
on) from the 0.7 release returned void, but the ones from CVS was
changed to return int. I need to install the latest CVS code and then
it’ll work right.
Oooh. Someone who actually got GNOME experience. That abad, eh?
yes. Both GNOME and KDE RPMs I’ve found are only made to
work on RedHat 5.1 and GCC 2.8. They require libstdc++ 2.8, which you
have to install but that conflicts with libstdc++ from GCC 2.7.3. It
looks like I have to upgrade since most RPMs coming out lately require
GCC 2.8 and compiling from tarballs can be even MORE of a headache.
GIF has been kinda killed in some circles because of prorietary issues
and legalities. Its unfortunate that most PC programmers use bitmaps
because they are inefficient and klunky…but amongst them it is
standard. JPEGS require a bit of overhead…it depends on your
app. There is also the PNG file format which people are trying to
use as a replacement, but I’ve seen no real practical instances
thus far on them that prove better professor.
Unfortunately that and the fact that GIF only supports 256 colors.
JPEG only have the load-time, and the game I’m working on loads
everything at startup, so gameplay wouldn’t be affected. I’ve heard
and seen a little about PNG, but I haven’t played around with it enough
to be able to comment. I’ve got some PNG files, but the only program
I’ve got that can read 'em is xv.
Good idea.
I thought so. That’s why I mentioned it.
I wish I could be of more help, but I’ve been insanely busy…if I
have a few hours this weekend I might try to krank out a demo
for inclusion.
Well, unfortunately, I’ve not been able to contribute any code yet,
just suggestions. Sam’s doing all the real work that I’ve seen thus
far.On 30 Jul, David Sowsy wrote:
