CodeBase Entries

This is a small example of what code you need to use for different mouse buttons.

pretty self explanatory - just lots and lots of text functions and perhaps more accessible bin and hex functions...

Utility which draws clickable '3D-look' buttons on a 2D screen.

A simple but great FullScreen Motion Blur Effect.

Learn what RGB is all about, and how to use it in your 2D and 3D programs.

Allows you to load and fade in or out any fullscreen-sized image to or from the previous screen. The function automatically determines the fade direction by your start and stop alpha values. (Takes advantage of SYNC function)

Finally, a code base entry that can help the newcommers get what they want. Simple jumping up and down, moving around, and that all important gravitational pull!
