Title: December 10, 1999
Post by: Nao on December 10, 1999, 00:00:00
I just added another poll to replace the Operating System poll (clear winner : Windows 95/98/2000 with 94% of users). This one concerns a problem I've been confronted to today. I spent hours working on the 2D engine. I first started by modifying a part of the code to allow for the usual GDI interface. Oh my god, terribly slow. Even slower than before. So I changed everything to DirectDraw. And guess what ? It doesn't work, although it should (it works only if I select some specific values for the tileset and window size). So I guess I'm going to wait for your opinion before I continue with this hybrid engine that has been clearly slowing down my development process. Oh, by the way, version 11.00 may not support Fullscreen mode (but it should be added later). I'm also relatively bored with my work on this feature... ;-) (I guess I should take a few days off and watch my remaining Deep Space 9 tapes... ;-))
