Re: Freeing Texture problem?

let's imagine that I have an array of gameObject, and that member 1 uses the same texture as member 0. if I run this: glDeleteTextutes(1, obj[0].tex.id); glDeleteTextutes(1, obj[1].tex.id); I will delete 2 texture, the texture used for gameObject 0 and another texture. I'll run this some other time ...

Re: Freeing Texture problem?

I figured it out, Some of my gameObject use texture from other gameObject. Deleting the texture will delete the next texture loaded. Is that supposed to happen? Right now I'm just deleting them manually and it's working fine, but I wonder if there's a way (within openGL) to know if a texture slot ho...

Re: Tracking memory usage

Check this topic from not too long ago, there's also some good link further down. http://dcemulation.org/phpBB/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=104322 Just keep in mind that if you,re freeing texture of PVR related stuff you need to use pvr_mem_free(). Since you work with -lgl (right?), glDeleteTexture() wi...

Re: DC-TOOL-IP Linux Tutorial

I'm not a Dreamcast guru, but I usually prefer CDI files, even if it mean booting on windows to burn them. They're usually hassle-free and just work well.

Re: Freeing Texture problem?

Wow, this look pretty messy on the forum but I'm sure there's a way to make this look ok on the wiki. Feel free to edit the download sources if there's more reliable one. If someone has a precompiled DC-TOOL-IP 1.0.4, I'll gladly take it. :wink: As for the arp command, if you have a better idea on h...

Re: Freeing Texture problem?

Thanks so much guys, I have a way better idea at how I should manage texture now. It's so nice to work with KOS, the number of ported librairies, documentation and tool make it a blast to work with. Also, as I was looking around for info, and learning how to make thing, I've wrote "basic" ...

After making sure that I free the data after it's being assigned to a glTexture, my game doesn't crash anymore! But the images end up being all black. Not after the first load tho, after the 6-7 load! Making progress... After reading those thread, I have one big question, PHEN0M said this: like Blue...

Re: Freeing Texture problem?

I'll look at the PNG loading code again before sending code.

Do you know if there's a function like pvr_mem_available() or any thing else useful I could use to keep track of memory?

Thanks so much bogglez.

Freeing Texture problem?

I've hit a wall recently checking for memory leak. Here's a simple structure of my code: I use -lGL to load my texture using the png_to_texture function from the DCEmu tutorial. I made myself a couple of classes to handle stuff like scene, and gameObjects. I was trying to figure out memory usage by ...

Re: ElysianVMU: Open letter to authors of Dreamcast emulator

I currently use both lxdream and reicast (and the DC of course) to test some code I'm working on. I haven't started using VMU right now as my stuff is pretty bare bone, but I would defenitly be interested in using EVMU to test/debug whatever is gonna happen in the VMU. I compiled reicast for linux, ...
