Hi All,
I've just posted the first version of Musubi, a games library that uses SDL. Musubi makes using SDL almost as easy as Euphoria DOS graphics. Advanced graphics, music/audio, game controllers, true-type fonts, and more are included in the library. Check it out and send me feedback about any other features, improvements or suggestions needed.

hi i had a look at musubi last night, it looks so much easier to use compared to when i was trying to use your sdl wrappers directly a few years ago. however i had a problem with it, the demo exe files work fine, but when i try to run any of the exw files, i get an error: "the procedure entry point SDL_MapRGBA could not be located in the dynamic link library SDL.dll" then the same error for SDL_Error.
any ideas?

Hi liquidnitrogen,
I suspect you may have another copy of the SDL.dll file on your system. Musubi will work properly with DLL files that are in the same directory, but might not work with older or newer versions. Check the Windows directories for SDL.dll. If you find the SDL.dll file, try renaming it and re-running the Musubi EXW files. I'd like to get the most current versions of SDL and all the associated SDL libraries in place for the next release of Musubi.
Hope that helps. Let me know if you're still having probs.
Mark

and here i was, going to be getting to bed early. but alas, your theory was correct and musubi now runs fine. perhaps i will create something. my time is a bit limited these days, but your program looks simple to use, and it seems to run at a decent speed.

Cool! I'm glad to hear it's working for you. I hope other Euphoria users will pick it up and develop some games or apps of their own. Let me know if there are any other features that you'd like to see added and I'll try to roll those into the next Musubi version. Sprites, collision detection, bitmap alpha, bitmap rotation, simple GUI tools, 3D graphics through OpenGL, and SDL_Net network support are all on my "wish list" for eventual inclusion.
Cheers, Mark
