I didn't think there was enough context to tell if it was sarcastic at all. -- |

I did. How would you take suddenly being called "Mr. Fjellstrom"? |

Quote: How would you take suddenly being called "Mr. Fjellstrom"? I dunno, I don't think I'd think it was sarcasm right away. the tone in the rest of the message would tell me either way. -- |

Well, the rest of the message was fine. The opening ticked me off a little. Meh, never mind. EDIT: I should perhaps mention, the change that Kitty Cat pointed out does actually fix the problem. |

Kitty Cat's got it right. You can't call create_bitmap() until after you have selected a video mode, otherwise the colour depth of the bitmap might not match the colour depth of the screen. If you want to, you can get around this using create_bitmap_ex() which allows you to specify the colour depth of any bitmap you create. --- Kris Asick (Gemini) --- Kris Asick (Gemini) |

Quote: If you want to, you can get around this using create_bitmap_ex() which allows you to specify the colour depth of any bitmap you create. That still might not do it. Allegro creates bitmaps in the same ordering (BGR RGB) as the card uses, and the default before a mode it set is BGR iirc, so if a card uses RGB, you'll have a BGR bitmap and a RGB screen. -- |

kazzmir, Sorry.. I guess you can give the man an answer, but if he doesn't know the language, its pointless.. |

To build upon Thomas's reply regarding makecol before allegro_init(), it's also worth noting you may run into issues if you use makecol, load_bitmap, etc before setting the color depth and/or graphics mode. |

Maybe it'd be worth mentioning that in the docs.

The Manual said: Initialises the Allegro library. You must call either this or allegro_init() before doing anything other than using the Unicode routines. If you want to use a text mode other than UTF-8, you can set it with set_uformat() before you call this. The other functions that can be called before this one will be marked explicitly in the documentation, like set_config_file(). http://www.allegro.cc/manual/api/using-allegro/install_allegro -- |
