screen:clear() bug in .12?

Hey everyone, I've ben using luaplayer for about 3 months now, and Im pretty good at it. However, I noticed something in version .12, screen:clear() doesnt work!

Well, it works, but only in the color black. I've tried everything,
---------
white = Color.new(255,255,255)
screen:clear(white)
--------
screen:clear(Color.new(255,255,255))
--------

But it wont clear the screen white!
I was thinking of using the screen:fillRect() function instead...

Any help?

That's not really surprising, as the clear method in svn doesn't even use the color ;)

Code: Select all

void clearScreen&#40;Color color&#41;
&#123;
        if &#40;!initialized&#41; return;
        guStart&#40;&#41;;
        sceGuClearDepth&#40;0&#41;;
        sceGuClear&#40;GU_COLOR_BUFFER_BIT|GU_DEPTH_BUFFER_BIT&#41;;
        sceGuFinish&#40;&#41;;
        sceGuSync&#40;0, 0&#41;;
&#125;

I guess that needs a
sceGuClearColor(color);
after the sceGuClearDepth(0);

Hmmm, would someone let shine know so we can get this fixed in the next release? It does show in the Lua Functions that it should work just using screen:clear(color)

Yeah, I guess Shine missed that...
