If you want the sprite sheet to always be a square, how about...

#define CEIL(x) (Sgn(x)*(Int(Abs(x)) + Sgn(x)))

Dim As Integer lcount = 8

Print CEIL(Sqr(lcount))

Hi, I'm no expert whatsoever especially MIDI or sound related but I think the problem is not the size, but the "Roland Drums" track in that particular file and possibly in general. I'm sure I read somewhere that Roland Drums doesn't always stick to the MIDI GM standard. I tested my theory ...

Nice, a very good, clear and well presented easy to follow piece of code showing how to use Raylib 5 in FreeBASIC.

Just for information, I built and tested using: FreeBASIC Compiler - Version 1.20.0 (2025-03-10), built for linux-x86_64 (64bit)

This could be the rebirth of https://www.dbfinteractive.com/ to fill the void, but the forum software need updating as it's so unstable.

You could also search for some flavour that has a live CD/DVD/USB image that you can try to get a basic idea of what might be good for you before you jump into an install.

Such a shame we have lost another forum, especially how I myself detest Discord. Not one to cause upset or rumours but I caught the site in an "under construction" mode before the current home page state, and it's message was along the lines of that Qube had had enough of the childish squa...

Interestingly, negative works...

Code: Select all

	SCREENRES 800, 600
	DIM a AS DOUBLE
	a = 1E-10
	LINE (800, 600) - (a, a)
	SLEEP

Dereference SDL_GetError()...

Code: Select all

Print #EF, "SDL_LoadBMP() failed "; *SDL_GetError()

Point to note... In its current state, it is 32bit only. For example the bmpload function uses Integer for reading the width & height and Integer on 64bit is 64bits wide, this reads 8 bytes rather than the 4 required and thus needs to be Long for inter architecture compatibility. There maybe els...

Fixable? I think that would turn FreeBASIC into something akin to an Acorn/BBC BASIC with it's inbuilt assembler, is that what you are thinking? If so, just use BBCSDL/BB4W. You can always include GAS directives (.rept & .endr) for example into the assembly block thus... This would produce the c...

Maybe?.... https://www.freebasic.net/wiki/ExtLibgsl https://www.gnu.org/software/gsl/doc/html/rng.html Looks like you can create multiple RNG's. Also look in FreeBASIC headers gsl/gsl_rng.bi Here's a quick simple conversion of one of their C examples. #include "gsl/gsl_rng.bi" DIM T AS CON...

Freebasic with inline asm sounds as a masm alternative, am I right? No. For one example... DIM i AS INTEGER FOR i = 0 TO 99 ASM nop END ASM NEXT i Will not inline 100 nop's into the compiled code, it loops over 100 single nop intructions. Neither specifying -funroll-all-loops to gcc will produce th...

Just a Windows problem by the looks of it. No errors on Linux.
