Hi neil. If you like opengl here is a text method. Also, better to include a sleep 1 in the loop. ' OpenGL 3D cuboid demo #include once "GL/gl.bi" #include once "GL/glu.bi" dim rquad as single declare Sub drawstring(xpos As Long,ypos As Long,text As String ,col As Ulong,size As S...

Douglas C Rogers maybe or Mark Feldman?

I have had these troubles in the past caseih, although it was a cathode ray model. Anjost, how do you manage it using "fbgfx.bi"? Here was my attempt, how is the circle on your monitor? #lang "fb" 'Circle test 'My monitor 1440 x 900 dim as long xr,yr screeninfo xr,yr var ratio=xr...

I have this problem with my pool game. https://www.freebasic.net/forum/viewtopic.php?p=220681&hilit=pool#p220681 I asked if anybody could correlate monitor display settings with the aspect in CIRCLE, to automate it to work everywhere giving a proper circle to the eye, but no luck. I tried myself...

Thanks neil, I got them both working.
For the opengl speed, just put sleep 20 at the end of the dorender sub.

Thank you neil.
I have a feeling that UEZ might have actually been on a similar winding journey in real time, or should I say spacetime.

For a solid cube only three faces are visible at any time.

You could use the windows built in player for video or audio.

Because this is in the beginner's section, this task is done without using pointers. Function Set(n As Long,Chars As String,mode As boolean=false) As String If mode=true Then n*=Len(Chars) Var c=String(n,0),count=-1 For m As Long=0 To n-1 Step Len(Chars) For k As Long=0 To Len(Chars)-1 count+=1 If c...

This works also: function MakePair(pair as const string) as const string dim as ubyte u(511) for n as long=0 to 511 if n mod 2=0 then u(n)=pair[0] else u(n)=pair[1] next return *cast(zstring ptr,@u(0)) end function dim as const string * 512 a=MakePair("Er") dim as const string * 512 b=Make...

I have Avast antivirus here on win 11. If I run code via quickrun in fbide (I don't have fbidetemp.exe set as an exception), I get a beautiful little console called Avast Cybercapture, which is an intermediate console to test for viruses e.t.c. After I click off this capturing console when the progr...
