Hello all,

have finally added an example about reading Jaguar CD-track-data on my website, it shows how to read a 320*240 16bit-RGB-graphic from a CD-track directly into a screen-object. There are 3 graphics included in the CD-tracks, use Fire B to load a new one.


Kind regards
Matthias

Nice work Matthias ! :cool:

May I suggest reposting this in the general Jaguar forum, as it seems almost nobody reads the programming forum...

But only if they ignore all those misleading (and german) comments ;)


But i think it's obvious that with only some few changes you can turn this little example-program into a menu-program for a demo-CD (which loads demo-programs instead of graphics).

Kind regards
Matthias

I didn't want to flood the general Jag-forum with such small-website updates, and the programming sector needs some postings ;) But i admit that i seldomly come down here myself ...

Of course, reading uncompressed pictures into a visible screen-object was just an easy way to show how fast reading from CD can be and to give the user immediate feedback.

It's too bad CD units are a smaller number in the Jag fan world. It would make cost of game a lot less.
