- Short: Version 1.2.0 of Amiga SDL audio/video library
- Author: Gabriele Greco
- Uploader: gabriele.greco@aruba.it
- Version: 1.2.0
- Type: dev/misc
- Replaces: SDL-Amiga.lha
-
- This is the porting of 1.2.0 version of SDL (the latest stable one)
- to AmigaOS/68k.
-
- All the bugs known of the past version have been corrected. And I've
- added all the new SDL features.
-
- This version of SDL needs Cybergraphx V3 (r69+) or CyberGraphX V4
- and AHI v3+. Probably it works also with P96 or CGXAga, but it's
- untested.
-
- This version is available as linked library for SAS/C and GCC, only 68k this
- time, a powerup (ppcemu compatible) and a morphos version will be ready quite
- soon (i hope).
-
- Implemented:
-
- - 8/16/24/32bit video modes, both fullscreen and windowed.
- - Hardware surfaces.
- - CGX blitting acceleration.
- - CGX colorkey blitting acceleration.
- - AHI audio (8/16 bit, with any audio format), always uses unit 0 for now.
- - Thread support (maybe not 100% compatible with other implementations)
- - Semaphores
- - Window resizing and backdrop windows (NEW)
- - Joystick/Joypad support.
-
- To do:
-
- - CDRom audio playing support
- - OpenGL (I guy was working on it but I've lost his tracks :( )
-
- The SAS/C library is distributed with debug info attached, to strip debug info
- simply add STRIPDEBUG argument to the linker.
-
- The sources are available in the archive AmigaSDLsrc.lha. They will be
- included in the official tree in the next release.
-
- In the example dir you'll find two small games compiled for SDL:
-
- SDLroids (a clone of the famous classic Asteroids,
- http://sourceforge.net/projects/sdlroids/) and XRICK (an opensource clone
- of the classic game Rick Dangerous, http://www.bigorno.net/xrick, for docs
- and sources)
-
- You can find a lot of stuff, that often compiles with a simple "make" on the
- OFFICIAL libSDL website:
-
- http://www.libsdl.org
-
- This site includes lots of games, utility, docs about SDL and SDL programming,
- with your contribution we will be able to port TONS of application to AmigaOS!
