| I have been looking through the Blitz3D command reference and I can't figure out how some of you guys make an intro screen without a menubar from windows at the top. How do you do it??? -Rook |
| ||
| You can't use the windows API... You gotta do it your self... or use someone elses GUI anyway. |
| ||
| Are you referring to doing an intro screen in windowed mode? I assume so since fullscreen doesn't have any menubar at the top, but I want to check. I think there is a DLL for that. |
| ||
| BlitzPlus can do it easily. With B3D, I believe you would have to use one of the Windows API's. |
| ||
| yes, blitzsys.dll can do it. |
| ||
| I plan on using windowed mode for the start... then the person will be able to sleect fullscreen or windowed for the game. In B3D. blitzsys.dll This is new to me. Where can I download that? -RZ |

| It seems kind of silly to use this one whole dll for one thing!... |

| ||
| If you mean a simple splash screen you just use Blitz`s default graphics mode, i.e. you don`t set one yourself and load a picture\graphics mode selection menu etc... straight to that. I think the images have to be a set size though. Jason. |

| Thought he meant an intro screen without title bar. Rook - the dll is only 12 kb. And you can use it for more things, eg. fileselectors, font or color chooser etc. |
| ||
| But don't you have to include the somethingorother.bb file??? Zombiewoof -- YeeHa it you and me against the yankees! : ) -RZ |
| ||
| the includefile isn't big eighter. |
| ||
| Just one more thing to pack in the datas.pak file : ) Hey my update changed all my taglines! -RZ |
