Psychophanta, do you think you could comment the code a bit so us n00bs can understand and learn from your code?

As is commented in the code, it uses the SuperSprite3D lib by CPL.Bator, but i have modified the functions a little bit.GeoTrail wrote:Psychophanta, do you think you could comment the code a bit so us n00bs can understand and learn from your code?
I will now post the code (in the first post) a bit more cutted down.
Anyway there is something wrong in my code, because the plane doesn't seem to have a real perspective, and the problem is in the camera, well i will correct if i have a time.

I'm installing Beryl and Ubuntu (Yes! Ubuntu! 
) at home right now - just to impress my friends...

I did it more simple, without the functions of SuperSprite3D from Cpl.Bator.
Now it is all pure native.
Anyway it could be improved still more coz of the z axis of Sprite3D is wierd for me.

I liked the original code better, because once the screen tilted back to the
bottom, it didn't "disappear" for half a second like it does now.
Also, you've got some incorrect error-checking in your new code:
The last line will cause an error if ExamineDesktops() fails at the top,
since you can't use DesktopWidth() and DesktopHeight() if it fails.
bottom, it didn't "disappear" for half a second like it does now.
Also, you've got some incorrect error-checking in your new code:
Code: Select all
If ExamineDesktops():Global SCREENWIDTH=DesktopWidth(0),SCREENHEIGHT=DesktopHeight(0)
Else:Global SCREENWIDTH=GetSystemMetrics_(#SM_CXSCREEN),SCREENHEIGHT=GetSystemMetrics_(#SM_CYSCREEN)
EndIf
If InitSprite()=0 Or InitSprite3D()=0 Or InitKeyboard()=0
MessageRequester("Error","Can't access DirectX",0):End
EndIf
;SnapShot:
desktop.l = CreateImage(0,DesktopWidth(0),DesktopHeight(0))
since you can't use DesktopWidth() and DesktopHeight() if it fails.

Thats odd, just the opposite for me because on the orginal version for me when the screen tilted back it did "disappear" for a second, where the latest version doesn't do that to me.PB wrote:I liked the original code better, because once the screen tilted back to the

Aaargh! you are right PB,
now is corrected.
About the screen dissappear, etc, you can play with the values in the line:

I tried that but can't see how to fix it... the screen still lays too flat and is gone
for about half a second before rising up again. Any better tip to fix this?
