Thanks to Öhr GmbH, we now have a nice looking logo! Öhr GmbH also suggested that we need a forum. I will do a little bit more research after I get a new version of DSLua out. In the other news, I am making more progress on DSLua 0.2...
Some progress on background initialization functions. It's a bit messy right now, after I get most the basic functionalities in, I think I will restructure the objects in DSLua. Right now the biggest road block for DSLua to become useful is how to let users import their graphics data to use in their apps. I have looked at a few different tools/libraries and havn't made a final choice yet. I am leaning towards using some raw format just so I can get version 0.2 out sooner. Ideally, I think user would really like be able to just pass in a file name and use the .bmp/.pcx/.jpg/.gif as sprite, palette, or tiles. To do that, I need to hook up image parsing libraries to DSLua. That may eat up too much space. Using an external tool might be a hassle. I will do more research to see what I can come up with. Stay tuned! |
