No-BS FI

BlitzPlus Forums/BlitzPlus Beginners Area/No-BS FI

This works on all the images I have tested. It can be easily modified to return a bank with an alpha channel:

a=filoadimage("rockbase.dds")
SaveImage a,"test.bmp"
ExecFile "test.bmp"

Function FILoadImage(file$)
ftype=FIGetType(file,0)
If ftype=-1
	ftype=FIGuessType(file)
	If ftype=-1 Return
	EndIf
fibitmap%=FILoad(ftype,file,0)
If Not fibitmap Return
pixels=figetbits(fibitmap)
i=CreateImage(FIGetWidth(fibitmap),FIGetHeight(fibitmap))
SetBuffer ImageBuffer(i)
LockBuffer ImageBuffer(i)
width=FIGetWidth(fibitmap)
height=FIGetHeight(fibitmap)
depth=FIGetDepth(fibitmap)
For y=0 To height-1
	For x=0 To width-1
		b=PeekB(pixels+(y*width+x)*(depth/8)+0)
		g=PeekB(pixels+(y*width+x)*(depth/8)+1)
		r=PeekB(pixels+(y*width+x)*(depth/8)+2)		
		If depth=32 a=PeekB(pixels+(y*width+x)*(depth/8)+3)
		WritePixelFast x,height-1-y,RGB(r,g,b)
		Next
	Next
UnlockBuffer ImageBuffer(i)
FIUnload fibitmap
Return i
End Function


You need FreeImage.dll:
.lib "FreeImage.dll"

From your message subject I infer that you think the freeimage lib someone made for Blitz contains BS.

To what BS do you refer? Was there some license I didn't see? Or did you just not like how many functions the lib had?

It seemed pretty straightforward to me the way it was, and I didn't see any restrictions on use.

The lib to which I refer is here:
http://www.blitzcoder.com/cgi-bin/showcase/showcase_showentry.pl?id=snarty09252003024804&comments=no

I guess you decided to use freeimage to load those DDS files then?

No I mean his source is freakin' huge and bloated...and this can use the latest FreeImage DLL, without a special wrapper.
