PureBasic Forums - English

Hi,

I've searched the forum for information about extracting and creating zip archives from within PureBasic, but I was only able to come accross information about rars.

So, I was wondering if anyone had any information about how to do this. There will only be 1 file per archive.

What I wish to ...

Well, it's probably not the best way of doing it, but I've created a seperate thread that refreshes the window 10 times a second. If anyone knows of a better way of doing this, I'd love to hear it

Yep, that's done it

I can now see the webcam output, and the motion detection, but the game part, appeared once, in the bottom right corner of the window, but seems to have disappeared now

Looking good

Nope, unfortunately it still crashes.

I open it up, select my webcam, about half a second passes, and the window turns into a large (about 800x600?) window, then it crashes. "iCamGame has generated errors, and will be closed by windows"

Still, good luck

Hi,

I've got a window, that is a sprite screen, which I need to redraw every time part of it is overdrawn.
Currently, when a window goes over the top of this sprite window, it is not re-drawn. I need to redraw the window whenever a part of it is overwritten.
I have tried #PB_Event_Repaint, but this ...

Yep, the same happens for me (crashes once I've selected my webcam), I hope you fix this bug though, it sounds interesting...

I was once going to do something along the lines of this, when I found out about all the security motion detection software you can use your webcam for, but never got round ...

I was using v3.62, but I've just downloaded the update, and upgraded to v3.72.

I've tried your source code, and it works exactly how I want it to.

I shall take a look through it, and try and understand the alterations you have made.

Many thanks!

Hello again, here is the whole of my source file, the files testlvl and testback, are 320x240 bitmaps, but they will range from any size from 320x240 to 640x480.

Thanks...

Thanks for your help :)

Still not working though, I turned off the debugger, and the program crashed.

I added a check:

If EventGadgetID() = #LoadImagesButton
LoadImage(#LevelImage, GetGadgetText(#LevelImageFilename))
UseWindow(#PreviewWindow)
UseImage(#LevelImage)
ResizeWindow(ImageWidth ...

Is that not what OpenWindowedScreen does?
Do you *have* to open a full-screen screen?

Hi,

I'm currently trying to work out how to load a sprite, resize a window to the size of it, create a screen the size of the window, then draw the sprite.
The code I am using to do this, is:


LoadImage(#LevelImage, GetGadgetText(#LevelImageFilename))
UseWindow(#PreviewWindow)
UseImage ...

Thank you all for your help.
It's now working perfectly

Thankyou for the *brilliant* reply!
Now, I have changed the array to a long, which now makes it work perfectly when I manually assign the number.
However, when I load the number into the array using ReadByte(), it obviously does something odd... as it retains the problem, so even if I read a byte ...

Hi,
I seem to be having another problem
I have declared an array:
Dim StorageArray.b(320,240,3)
And I add a value to it:
StorageArray(1,1,1) = 255
Now, when I try and divide or bitshift that value, and write it to a file, I still end up with 0xFF (255):
WriteByte(StorageArray(1,1,1)>>3)
and ...

That works perfectly!
Thanks!
