OMG, you're the Best, thank you thank you thank you!

Thanks, great to see new updates to my favorite language. <3
Please, please, please don't forget about the "RotateSprite"-Bug, though.

Thanks for confirmation. Waiting for this to get fixed, as it is breaking some visual effects in my game.

Good to see you back at doing your thing.

Great Interview, thanks!
Good to see PureBasic is still actively supported, patched and developed.

Hey all,
noticed an issue with RotateSprite(), only apparent with subsystem DirectX9 (no issues under OpenGL or DirectX11).
When rotating a perfectly square sprite 90° or 180° or 270°, the new Sprite is cut off by 1 Pixel, and also shifted, so there's one line now 2px wide, while one side is missing ...

Just tested latest Beta with my 63k lines Game Project "The Ruins of Calaworm". Runs fine and fast as ever, in all 3 Substystems ( DirectX9, OpenGL and DirectX11 ), No CompilerIf exceptions needed. Especially stoked, that FullScreen TaskSwitch in OpenGL now works flawlessly!
Awesome work, Fred ...

FYI: TransparentSpriteColor() no longer defaults to full black - now it has to be defined always, after creating a new Sprite.

Don't know if helpful (maybe not), but with my game (turn-based dungeon crawler "The Ruins of Calaworm"), and another sideproject (an asteroids-shooter called "Cherry Shift") all is well. :) No lags, graphics is rendering fast as ever, also no CPU overload. Working on a (kinda) ancient laptop with ...

Thanks a lot, my favorite patch so far!
Awesome work, Fred.

When opening a Fullscreen application (DirectX 11-Subsystem), it will appear stretched on Widescreen Monitors, even though a resolution of 800x600 has been defined. Not 100% sure, tho, if this could be drivers issue, or indeed a bug? :oops:
It works fine in DirectX9 and OpenGL - the screen will be ...

Okay, thank you for testing.
That is a bit reassuring, so it seems to be an issue with my laptop (currently don't have another platform to test this), maybe some graphic card drivers (although they are up to date) or incompatibilities with Windows 11?

Hello everyone, hope someone can help me with this:

The following snippet works flawlessly with the DirectX9-Subsystem enabled.
Without subsystem (OpenGL), OpenScreen always fails.
However, when I try to run this with the DirectX11-Subsystem enabled, OpenScreen responds accordingly, but then the ...

Thank you. :) :oops:
Back then, when I first shared progress on the german side of PureBasic I carelessly claimed I was 95% done. Little did I know ... the game underwent a complete structural overhaul since then, and now has mutated into a pretty unique and crazy polished beast, with amplified ...

Thanks, you definitely earned yourself a spot in the Credits. 8)

And I'm sure eventually you'll get the gist about the Align the Stars-Minigame. :)
I'm the developer, of course, so I've played this 100s of times already (constellations are randomly created with a Maze Algorithm), and I can solve ...
