- Short: THE BEST chunky gfx system! AGA/CGFX (dev)
- Author: oondy@bigfoot.com (Andrew King)
- Uploader: oondy@bigfoot.com (Andrew King)
- Version: 4.1
- Type: util/libs
-
- DEVELOPER ARCHIVE - you only need this if you are going to develop software
- using chunky.library.
-
- *NEW* EXAMPLES ARE NOW INCLUDED!
- Some nasty bugs fixed...
-
- CHUNKY GRAPHICS LIBRARY
- Version 4.1 (18-Mar-1999)
- Public Release 5
-
- Welcome to the wonderful world of 8-bit chunky!
-
- So, you want a standardised method of reading, writing and displaying chunky
- data in your Amiga application? Not too hot on the idea of using RTGMaster
- or "rolling your own" methods? Don't care for system hacks? In that case,
- you've downloaded the right thing!
-
- This SHARED library for your compiler will handle everything to do with
- <=256 colour chunky pictures. Features:
-
- * Shared library (can be used in any language)
- * Transparent support for AGA/CGFX
- * High-level and low-level commands available
- * Draw from one chunky buffer to another (enhanced in V4)
- * Uses RastPort's instead of BitMap's (and windows in V4)
- * Text support (draw Amiga bitmap fonts onto chunky buffers)
- * Features most of the basic graphics.library calls but works with chunky
- buffers
- * All written in ANSI C (although AGA c2p/p2c stuff isn't)
- * It's freeware!
-
- And for version 4:
- * 17 new functions in V4!
- * Supports all RastPort drawing methods (JAM1, JAM2, INVERSVID, etc.)
- * Ability to flip chunky buffers (horizontal, verticle, both)
- * Scrolling of chunky buffers (any direction)
- * 360 degree rotation!
- * Infinate scaling (with or without smoothing)!
- * RGB palette support
-
- That list got your motor running? Thought so...
-
- See included documentation for more information.
-
- WANTED
-
- The c2p routines used are no way their best. If you have flexible c2p/p2c
- code that can use chunky buffers of any size and render at any position on
- any screen size, do not hesitate to contact us. We are looking to make
- chunky.library the BEST chunky graphics system available.
-
- FUTURE
-
- V5 may see the following improvements:
-
- * PPC support (PPC c2p code please :)
- * 15/16/24-bit support (probably CGFX only)
- * Layers (maybe)
- * Display support (maybe)
- * Your ideas
-
- ... but don't count on any of that happening :).
-
- WEBSITE
-
- A new chunky.library website has been setup allowing you to download the
- latest version of the library without waiting for Aminet <grin>.
