I've been working on a scrolling background routine, similar to Woo Seob
Lee's "ARCADE.EX", however I'm working in 800x600x256 colors. Whenever I
load my image (3200x600x256) into memory, it overwrites the operating
system. Could anyone tell me how to allocate a 'safer' block of memory, or
better yet, has anybody already worked this out so I don't have to
re-invent the wheel?
As a side note, and correct me if I'm wrong, I should be able load a bitmap
with a quick & dirty Euphoria code generator and copy the resulting
sequence into my program (hardcode) so there's no file-access delay, right?
That would also keep the bitmap invisible to anyone who isn't currently
running the program. Am I on the right track here?
