Do you think the buffer size can decrease the performance? Should I change it to say... 128 then? It will only cause your program to crash or at least behave strange at later points. If you want to avoid that, then yes, increase the buffer size to something bigger. So it's more a preventive thing. ...

Your image_name[] array is far too small to hold the filename you are sprintf ing in to it. If the filenames are 00 to 51 it needs to be at least 15 wide. Jim But that isn't generating any error, and yes, my images are called 01,02,03... Do you think the buffer size can decrease the performance? Sh...

I know the VRAM is just 2mb, and in this case I would be loading less than 1mb, so I got a bit confused in it. Wrong. Though your images may only be < 2MB on disk, they may very well be much more than that in RAM. When loading the images, they will reside uncompressed in memory, so the size only de...

Yes, I tried that, and I'm also not sure if it'[s faster for the loading, but I now it's much quicker for the displaying, but for some reason it was freezing my app.

Hi guys I'm using OSLIb to load some images to my app, but am finding it a bit slow to load the number of images I want.

Hi, that was my fault, Raphael helped me to find the problem, and it was just silly. I was calling

Code: Select all

printf&#40;"%i\n",cards&#91;q&#93;&#41;;
instead of

Code: Select all

printf&#40;"%i\n",deck&#91;d&#93;&#41;;
Thank you ver much, it's working fine now.

It would be easier to keep your array static (so 0 - 'Ace of Spades' to 51 - 'King of Diamonds'). Then choose your favourite prng to generate your random index (0-51) and thats your random card. For your 5 unique cards you can just put a check to gen a new number if that number had already been dra...

That's where you are wrong. It hasn't been downgraded. They just managed to dump the nand.

A downgrade is still to come, but you'll have to wait for a bit.
