We are in the first stages of making a 2D game at the moment, which will focus on destructible environments and objects.
However, we have already encountered serious problems with the choice of the right graphics API
At the moment, we use SDL - but the problem we see with it is that it isn't really performant, and has no hardware-accel...
Hello there, I'm working on some SDL stuff and I've run into some trouble when trying to set the location of a loaded BMP.
Here's the code.
while(event.type != SDL_QUIT) //The game loop that does everything
{
SDL_Rect *location;
location = SDL_Rect(600,400,0,0);
SDL_PollEvent(&event); //This "polls" the event

Glut seems rather old, and SDL also as if it's not the youngest anymore - what is being used as (cross-platform) window manager for OpenGL nowadays?

I'm using SDL_Image to display a JPEG on screen and having some issues with the resolution it's being displayed at.
I understand that if I pass 0 to width, height and bits when calling SDL_SetVideoMode that SDL takes the current modes values, however these seem to be wrong in my case.
I'm running this on an embedded linux system with a...

During initialisation of my program I call SDL_SetVideoMode() just after SDL_Init() and it is hanging my program.
When executing the program, if I press Ctrl-C during the hang it will continue as normal and all works fine.
Obviously having to interupt SDL_SetVideoMode() every time isn't ideal! Anyone have any ideas on what this could b...

aDosbox is hard-coded to use a keymapping suitable for the T-Mobile G1.
I'm using a G2, and that is a fairly inconvenient mapping.
I'm completely new to android development, sadly.
I've been poring over the code, and have managed to substitute a few characters, but I think I must be missing something pretty basic.
Can anyone point me...
I'm learning the SDL library and one of the functions to create a surface is SDL_CreateRGBSurface. The four parameters I'm wondering about are R, G, B, and A masks. What exactly is a mask in this context?
I'm also following a book about SDL and the author passed in 5 bits of red, 5 bits of blue, and 6 bits of green for the mask values....
Hello,
for a simple demo program I am using the SDL library to play a mpeg movie file.
Unfortunately the demo app should be executed on one of our windows 7 servers and it should be looked at remotely.
The problem is, that when I connect via RDP to the server the SDL window stays black - although the movie becomes played (I hear the ...
