X2D - eXtended 2D

[El_Choni]

This is my 500th post!!! I would like to celebrate with an useful post, but I just can't figure anything useful right now... Dunno: enjoy life, don't waste your time working for somebody else, wake up at three, eat, drink and f*** as much as you can or someone else will.

All this works for me

OK, can someone please test and confirm the functionality of the newly compiled lib: http://www.physical-touch.de/X2D (attention, no zip, just the plain lib-file)

Congrats... and in your quote, you mean fart right.? 8O

nice job... it's very usefull

a suggestion:

Code: Select all

imageid = X2D_ExtracAlphaChannel( #ID, PNGfilename.s )

[Kale]

I get the following error with the attached code:

The following PureLibrary is missing: TB_INCLUDEFONT

Code: Select all

@Kale: We will have to wait till El_Choni is back from his Europe Roundtrip. I can't even compile the Source anymore under 3.91
I think he and I can work on this in september.

@eddy: Good idea.


Thanks for the input guys.

[eddy]

a aplha extractor would be cool.

It's such a pity that PB can't read alpha information :roll:

You mean reading in a PNG and extracting the information of the Alpha-Channel? Could be done, though I don't know how complicated the PNG format is. Have to read the specifications about that.

But it will take it's time, as I'll be away at least one week. I'm flying to Madrid today staying there for 4 months and I don't know when or how I will have the opportunity to go into the internet.

Hmm... weird problem (about TB_INCLUDEFONT),I ll check it when I m back. Having a great time, right now in Budapest, conmemorating their 1000 annyversary with fireworks, beer, and what not. It s a pity they speak such an odd language Cya

Anymore news on this im still getting the TB_INCLUDEFONT error.

[El_Choni]

I'm working on it. I had freedimension yesterday sitting just by my side, and he can tell you it's not that easy, but I know how to solve it. It'll be fixed this week.

ACK, very weird problem. But I'm sure El_Choni will find the answer

[Kale]

nice

[TheBeck]

So this lib is not working at all under 3.91?

I really need the transparent image function. Any word on when this will be working again?
