Whoops.

The previous version of the demo executable had the fmod.dll linked to it… that now fixed. v.92 with a custom font selector is now up.

Module

Worked on the text capabilities of the module. Now TPacImage.DrawText uses SetHandle to determine how the whole text is drawn instead of just the individual characters. So now SetRotation and SetScale work as expected but you still have the option of just using those to modify the individual characters.

Mac Tests

Tested some examples on a old mac G4 laptop… ssFont fps went from 80 to 130 while ssImage2 only saw a 5-10 fps increase. I will post those PPC exes.

It seems while many gfx cards gain some real performance when using a single texture in BlitzMax some cards do not gain. But almost all cards do see a pretty good gain when using bitmap fonts though. Here’s the discussion…
