Hey all... I've been making lots of progress. The game has a new intro animation, and this video showcases that and the newly functional options screen.

Thanks! Have any of you guys utilized a video codec in PureBasic? I'm just loading sprite sheets of full frame images for my animation.

PureBasic has built-in movie playing functionality, the sample below is from the help file:
Code: Select all
;
; ------------------------------------------------------------
;
; PureBasic - Movie example file
;
; (c) Fantaisie Software
;
; ------------------------------------------------------------
;
If InitMovie() = 0
MessageRequester("Error", "Can't initialize movie playback !", 0)
End
EndIf
MovieName$ = OpenFileRequester("Choose the movie to play", "", "Movie files|*.avi;*.mpg|All Files|*.*", 0)
If MovieName$
If LoadMovie(0, MovieName$)
OpenWindow(0, 100, 150, MovieWidth(0), MovieHeight(0), "PureBasic - Movie")
PlayMovie(0, WindowID(0))
Repeat
Until WaitWindowEvent() = #PB_Event_CloseWindow
Else
MessageRequester("Error", "Can't load the movie...", 0)
EndIf
EndIf

Sounds for options screen, also the new Boolean switch option. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to break my 48 hour fast. (Breakfast!)

You can't see the images? Strange.. They are showing for me. They are links to images I posted to Discord. Unless I am mistaken there is no way to attach images or files to my posts.
