    Cgl

    Lol it looks like someone stole my thunder, I guess this is the second console library now. But I've finished mine, documentation and all. It's available here and in the Game Programming forum on the "Post Your Games Here" sticky. And to relate this to C++...does anyone know of a good, fast way to re-draw things in the console? Because they always seem to flicker . Ah well, enjoy!

    -Edit- Fixed some stuff so that it actually works now

    Ummm... someone on the game board just was talking about double buffering the console, which would eliminate the flicker. Check the thread about Dostris, and PM whomever can do it.

    I don't mean to intrude but wasn't one of the rules no advertising? Hmm, I guess this necessarily advertising, since it's programming...

    One would assume the advertising rule applies to selling of software. I don't think there's much of a market for console graphics.

    Lol yeah, that's what I figured. Plus, I'm not really trying to advertise it or anything, it's more just something for beginner programmers to use to make some simple games. I'm only trying to help, that's all.

    CGL Website

    I didn't want to constantly re-post CGL changes here, so I made a webpage for the CGL. Click here to visit the webpage.
