Full Changelog: v3.12.0...v3.13.0
Steve Note: For all those who were seeing issues with the font rendering with the last version, you might want to grab a copy of this version and test things out. I *think* the issue with those faded/blurred fonts has now been fixed and should no longer be an issue for anyone. To me, that makes this version one which I'd almost consider to be an "essential update" for folks to grab and make use of.
Uh, hello guys, name's Hash, im 24 years old and im pure basic gw_basic text adventure programmer i just love text and games so i merged those both, my current project is my test project which i will add text based gore, violence and toilet humor
say i made a character whom has 0 stats and he faced a slime the slime had 50 hp and he dealt only 2 hits how do i put that on the code im very new to GW_BASIC

I’ve been toying with the idea of rendering graphics to SCREEN 0 for a while and have figured out quite a few things on how to accomplish this at a reasonably good speed. However, one of those experiments turned out to be the most fun of all. So much so that I decided to convert it into a tiny library and share it here. You can use this to give your programs a retro artistic look.
The library has just two functions: AAFB_Render and AAFB_SetupScreen0.
The AAFB_Render function is used to render any graphics image onto a SCREEN 0 image. It takes two parameters: srcImage and dstImage. The srcImage parameter is the handle of the graphics image to be rendered, and the dstImage parameter is the handle of the destination SCREEN 0 image where the ASCII art image will be rendered onto. dstImage can be 0 (i.e. the real SCREEN). srcImage and dstImage must have the same dimensions.
Code: (Select All)
SUB AAFB_Render (BYVAL srcImage AS LONG, BYVAL dstImage AS LONG)
The AAFB_SetupScreen0 is just a convenience function that quickly sets up SCREEN 0 with optimal settings.
Code: (Select All)
SUB AAFB_SetupScreen0 (screenWidth AS _UNSIGNED INTEGER, screenHeight AS _UNSIGNED INTEGER)
QB64-PE 3.12 is required. To use an older compiler, remove the "$INCLUDEONCE" lines from AAFB.bi and AAFB.bas.
There are some demos included in the Demo folder.
RokCoder's Galaga running on top of AAFB.
FishTank demo running on top of AAFB.
Limitations:
There is no built-in scaling. However, this can be easily done with _PUTIMAGE
Although it is quite fast, the rendering is done on the CPU and hence may not be suitable for high-resolution rendering (e.g. WIDTH 1920, 1080). However, lots of performance can be gained if you compile with the QB64-PE optimization option enabled.
It does not render to the console / terminal. There are other of libraries that do that. However, they are limited to a reduced set of ASCII characters. AAFB uses all 256 ASCII characters.
