[AD] New graphics driver -- GFX_FORCE?

[ Thread Index | Date Index | More lists.liballeg.org/allegro-developers Archives ]


Hi,

Is there any interest in adding a new graphics driver, GFX_FORCE? This
forces Allegro to use a specific card, width, height, etc. regardless of
the mode requested by the user or program (as long as it uses
GFX_AUTODETECT), and is useful for situations such as laptops which only
look nice in 800x600, or for forcing broken programs which only request
16bpp to use 15bpp when that's all that your card supports, etc.

I have written the patch locally (without any documentation :-) of
course), so if there is interest, it will simply be a matter of writing
a description/usage file.

Bye for now,
