  • Make pygame's frame rate faster

    - by Smashery
    By profiling my game, I see that the vast majority of the execution time of my hobby game is between the blit and the flip calls. Currently, it's only running at around 13fps. My video card is fairly decent, so my guess is that pygame is not using it. Does anyone know of any graphics/display options I need to set in pygame to make this faster? Or is this just something that I have to live with since I've chosen pygame?

  • Legality of ripping DVD audio

    - by Smashery
    I want to buy several live music DVDs, but I also want to be able to put the music in my playlists. It seems ridiculous that I should also have to buy the Live CD version. Is it legal (particularly under Australian law) to rip the audio?

  • Scaling a CBitmap - what am I doing wrong?

    - by Smashery
    I've written the following code, which attempts to take a 32x32 bitmap (loaded through MFC's Resource system) and turn it into a 16x16 bitmap, so they can be used as the big and small CImageLists for a CListCtrl. However, when I open the CListCtrl, all the icons are black (in both small and large view). Before I started playing with resizing, everything worked perfectly in Large View. What am I doing wrong? // Create the CImageLists if (!m_imageListL.Create(32,32,ILC_COLOR24, 1, 1)) { throw std::exception("Failed to create CImageList"); } if (!m_imageListS.Create(16,16,ILC_COLOR24, 1, 1)) { throw std::exception("Failed to create CImageList"); } // Fill the CImageLists with items loaded from ResourceIDs int i = 0; for (std::vector<UINT>::iterator it = vec.begin(); it != vec.end(); it++, i++) { CBitmap* bmpBig = new CBitmap(); bmpBig->LoadBitmap(*it); CDC bigDC; bigDC.CreateCompatibleDC(m_itemList.GetDC()); bigDC.SelectObject(bmpBig); CBitmap* bmpSmall = new CBitmap(); bmpSmall->CreateBitmap(16, 16, 1, 24, 0); CDC smallDC; smallDC.CreateCompatibleDC(&bigDC); smallDC.SelectObject(bmpSmall); smallDC.StretchBlt(0, 0, 32, 32, &bigDC, 0, 0, 16, 16, SRCCOPY); m_imageListL.Add(bmpBig, RGB(0,0,0)); m_imageListS.Add(bmpSmall, RGB(0,0,0)); } m_itemList.SetImageList(&m_imageListS, LVSIL_SMALL); m_itemList.SetImageList(&m_imageListL, LVSIL_NORMAL);

  • Create a Modeless Messagebox

    - by Smashery
    How might one go about creating a Modeless MessageBox? Do I have to just create my own Windows Form class and use that? If so, is there an easy way of adding a warning icon (rather than inserting my own image of one) and resizing based on text volume?

  • Pygame Font not consistent

    - by Smashery
    I'm working on a program in python+pygame with some other developers, and we're seeing the same font rendered differently. It's a free font that we're distributing with the game. On my machine, this particular font is rendering 10px lower than on another developer's machine. Any thoughts on why this is?

  • Understanding Device Contexts

    - by Smashery
    As a relative newcomer to MFC, I see Device Contexts (DCs) a lot. I vaguely understand that it's something to do with drawing, but the specifics are not very well explained anywhere that I can find. What does creating a "compatible Device Context" mean, and why is it important? What does SelectObject do, and how must I make a DC compatible first?

  • Create a CBitmap from Resources ID

    - by Smashery
    I need to fill a CImageList with a number of bitmaps which are stored in separate bmp files (rather than as a single bmp with numerous parts). I assume I need to create a CBitmap so I can call the Add method of CImageList. So how might one create a CBitmap object using only MFC Resource IDs?
