EXR Image Loading

There's a new cross-patform module available at my website ( http://brucey.net/programming/blitz/ ) which adds loading of OpenEXR images.

OpenEXR is a format for High Dynamic Range (HDR) imaging, using 16 or 32-bit floating point values for each of the R, G, B and A channels.

Before you get too excited, please read the follow caveat ...

NOTE :

* Only the source version is supplied (otherwise it would be a BIG download). You will have to Build Modules before you can use it.

* BaH.EXRLoader requires a modified BMK to build. This is because the standard/official/included BMK doesn't support compile-time build options, which are needed to for the EXR libraries to compile successfully. You can download a modified BMK source via THIS LINK. ;-)



Perhaps in the next release of BlitzMax, BMK will support this feature...

The BMK link is broken

I've added another link, for those that login to blitzbasic rather than blitzmax.
Are there any other bse URLs that people use, or is that about it ?

Just post the link like so...

[ a /Community/posts.php?topic=68021 ]link text[ /a ]

...and the correct domain will be automagically added.



[edit]
...Obviously without the extra spaces. ;o)

I can't access to this links. Not sure if them are in a private forum or something. I get always an internal error

Changed the link, as Yan says :-)

Not entirely private, I didn't think... It's the Module Tweaks section, which I thought everyone with BlitzMax has access to ?
