What is it?

If r>0

It does not compile under BlitzPlus...

Yes thank you, I figured it out too, it seems a bug of this forum to replace HTML codes for > and <.

???

Hmmm... interesting effect, but... Why does it just create every other line of the image?

This gives me a mav at one of the writepixel commands?

Hi all

I get the same MAV in DareDevil's version.

i have test the release and not crash.

whats release blitz use?

bye

I don't know why, but these days "writepixelfast" and "readpixelfast" cause MAVs for me. If I change them to their respective "writepixel" and "readpixel" equivalents the code runs without problems.

EDIT: Actually, the -"fast" commands cause MAVs only in windowed mode. If I change the code to run fullscreen then it runs without problems.

change settings bios enable

agp fast access read!
agp fast access write!

yeah, on my school pc, it is working properly. but at home MAV.

you have to determinate pixels out of the screen range

at 640x480 it is (0-639)x(0-479)

To fix the mav, one must only fix the boundary checks for the texture output. Line 154, change it to:

If x>=0 And x<grw And y>=0 And y<grh

In my opinion, it'd be faster to use writepixelfast WITHOUT the boundary checks, just know where x and y will lead.. ReadPixel would certainly have faster boundary checks, considering it's written below blitz.

Here's a rough BlitzMax port + modification:
