Could you use GUIWIN ptr, new, and delete? Would this be a safer way to destroy a class mid-program? No the destructor will get called. Why would you destroy the whole class just to get rid of the window? And why couldn't you recreate the class if needed? Could you just put in a separate method to ...

Assuming GUIWIN is an FB class you created, you don't normally need to call the destructor explicitly as it will be called automatically when the variable falls out of scope. IIRC

Great. Works now.

This link doesn't take me to the campaign. It just takes me to my GoFundMe log in. See if there is a link to share the campaign.

Palette information is stored right after the BITMAPINFO header. You could just read that table directly.

Please use the code tags when posting source code as it makes it easier to copy to the clipboard as well as makes the thread easier to read.

FSUIPC is an SDK for interfacing with Microsoft Flight Simulator (FSX) and Lockheed Martin Prepa3D. With it you can read simulation information like airspeed, latitude and longitude, etc, as well as set many of these variables. Developers use this SDK to create custom gauges and controls, both virtu...

Impressive! How long did these scenes take to render?

[a bit off-topic] I am using FreeBASIC 1.05 and FBEdit 1.0.6.8 on Windows 10-64 bit. About FBEdit: the version you're using now, still has some *instability* issues. You'd better upgrade to version: 1.0.7.6c, the latest version from KetilO. You can get it from: freebasic-portal.de (the german langu...

You see. I must have been brain-dead.

Thanks dkl

Ok guys. I know its been a while since I did any serious programming in FB but I am stumped and I need your help. Below is a download link to a project I am doing. I am converting some C code into a static FB library. The first project (FSUIPC_FB) is the actual library. Then there is a sub-project c...

FYI the link to this project in the first post took me to a virus/trojan web site.

I could probably afford another 200 USD game making compo (out of my own pockets), but I'm not sure if there is still enough interested parties. Maybe I should open a pool. So, no new FB games since 2014 of note? While I appreciate your dedication to the FreeBASIC community, I don't think you shoul...

I miss the little competitions we used to have. We should try to raise money on GoFundMe to provide incentive money for prizes. Sell the idea as promoting education in software and game development, plus they get free games!
