[Tutorials] Pictures/Images

[DanShadow]

Yes, your program is doing this:
(mypic, maxx div 2, maxy div 2, 0)
Picture variable= mypic
x co-ordinate of picture= maxx div 2
y co-ordinate of picture= maxy div 2
value of picture= 0?????
Turing Program: 0?! Wtf does that mean!! AhhaAh! Dying!!!
The 0 has to be one of the following: (picCopy, picMerge, picXOR, etc.) I forget the rest of th em, but replace one of those with 0 to make the picture load correctly.

[Mazer]

no. 0 is perfectly fine. PicCopy is just a constant for 0.

watch:

code:

put picCopy put picXor put picMerge put picUnderMerge

tada! those are four of turings draw modes. you could type those, or you could type a number from 0 to 4 instead. 4 will work as a draw mode but it doesn't seem to do anything useful.

so, to sum up, the problem was indeed with the loading of the picture. you probably had the filename typed wrong.

[DanShadow]

Oh really?! I thought the value of the pic had to be identified by pic+something...not numbers. Hm, interesting

THIS DOES NOT WORK

[DanShadow]

NO! IT DOES WORK! YOU DONT WORK! WORK DAMN YOU!!
hehe, sorry for caps. And yes, it does work, make sure your picture, and .exe are in the same directory (folder).

code:

var ogre:int:=Pic.FileNew("ogre-picture.bmp") Pic.Draw(ogre,200,200,picMerge)

Put a picture named "ogre-picture.bmp" in the same directory as your turing file, try this, and tell me it doesnt work. tx

It's time we cleared something up. Asking the same question multiple times does NOT increase the chances of getting help. Rather, it infuriates people.

And this doesn't help you get your answers either.

Now, go look in your other thread for your answer.

when i input an img and i try to move it around it goes off the curser meaning that when the curser goes off the screen the game ends : (

[Clayton]

You're going to have to be a bit more descriptive here. I have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. Is the image set to track with the mouse? Is the image set to the keyboard cursor? I think you see the problem here.

[sh0td0wn]

How do you kill the image after you're done with it, or at least hide?

[syntax_error]

are you talking bout free.pic?
not sure if that is quite teh syntax but its something like that

[ericfourfour]

If you want to remove a picture from the screen, you have to draw over it. To deallocate a picture's memory use Pic.Free.

[revangrey]

seeing as how many times this thread has been brought back I do not consider this to be a "necro"

I hope...

anyways I seem to be unable to put in a .jpg image

or any image for that matter

now I am pretty sure I have followed the steps but would anyone care to explain this to me?

I may have missed something...
