WarpSDL.library is a new shared library for future games/applications. It has its own custom command set, while
at the same time supporting standard SDL commands, for easy porting. It is written entirely from scratch.
The main reason for me writing this in the first place was to port
ScummVM to AmigaOS without having to suffer from the speed-penalty that
the normal SDL gives.
Changes since last release:
* Added support for timed events.
* Added support for audio cd's using direct-scsi. Also added the
env-var(s) DEF_CDX_NAME to control the behaviour.
* Preliminary support for joysticks, cd32pads & psxpads (psxport.device).
* Extended the SDL commands-set and WarpSDL command-set.
* Smarter subtask-signalling implemented.
* Depth and close gadgets added to wb-window displays.
* Preliminary datatypes support added.
* There was a memory leak when using 15bit+ displays, fixed.
* More misc stuff related to 15bit+ displays fixed.
* Implemented pixel-mapping.
* Double buffering can now be forced on AGA screens, even if the
application uses single-buffering... (As it looks crap
otherwise... ;) Use the DEF_FORCEDBUFFAGA env-var to enable this.
* Many more fixes and improvements.
Read the guide-document in the newest archive for the complete history.
The following is inlcuded:
* Direct cybergraphics (Works great under P96 also).
* AGA support in 8bit mode.
* Window-mode on 15bit+ dsiplays.
* Full-screen support.
* AHI support for sound.
* Thread/subtask support.
* PPC (WarpOS) support.
* Supports joysticks, cd32pads and psxpads.
* Supports CD audio.
* +More.
Developer information for the WarpSDL package will hopefully be available one day ;).

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)
|
Q: Heeeeeeelp! Many WarpSDL applications crash!
A: This is mostly stack related, as unix applications often use alot of
stack. (I recommend installing StackAttack, or to just raise the
stack before runing a WarpSDL application. If this doesnt solve it,
install a ramlib patch. If it still doesnt work, email me! ;)
Q: Why doesn't CD-Audio work!
A: Incompatible cd-roms.
If you think you own one of theese drives that WarpSDL doesnt seem to
work with, please drop me a mail describing the model and brand, and
also what device you are using together with your cd-rom drive.
