Audio - Day Three
Blog
4th November 2017
I haven't got around to tackling Streams, yet, and have spent all morning working on audio loading functionality.
Mainly that the thing kept breaking when trying to load too many files. Typical memory leaks and the like were fairly rampant, too. But I've persevered, and I think it's more or less stable, now. Views 53, Upvotes 12

Bloomin' Quads

2nd November 2017
Over on SoCoder, Rockford suggests that the reason my quad-based images are looking skewed is because they're lacking a 3D element.
I guess that makes sense, but I was really hoping I could do some nice quad-based sprites, without resorting to a third dimension. Bah, humbug. As it stands, I can "kinda" warp the sprites around, but they look a bit weird when doing it. Views 40, Upvotes 6

Scaling Fix
Blog
1st November 2017
I finally figured out what was up with my scaling.
It was all down to the fact that Spritesheets get automatically given an 8-pixel gap around all sprites. The maths that resulted from that slight tweak were insane!!! Views 1425, Upvotes 15

Today's tweaks have been numerous and varied, although mostly concentrating on controller based stuff.
As in the Monkey framework, F1 toggles Debug Mode (the framerate on the bottom), and F11 now toggles Fullscreen mode. Clicking on the screen draws a rock, which looks like a sponge. I've not begun doing Multitouch, yet. Views 247, Upvotes 12

Playing with Images
Blog
29th October 2017
Spent most of this morning rewriting bits of the basic Image Loader, to work with Spritesheets instead of individual sprites, and then additionally to fix the filename stuff.
A few basic errors have also been implemented. I'm near enough ready, now, to start working out the Threading stuff, but for the sake of testing, here's the latest download. Starting to get slightly larger, now, since it also includes 2 images, but otherwise everything's at a more or less maintainable size... Views 20, Upvotes 2
