[B2-devel] Escape Velocity Nova: gamma ramp patch

[<lau...@an...>]

Hello,

Here's a patch which implements VideoDriverStatus/cscGetGamma
and VideoDriverControl/cscSetGamma. These are needed to run
Escape Velocity Nova which came out some time ago.

If there is no obvious way to set gamma ramps on your
platform, just fill the gamma data with a linear ramp
and return noErr in cscGetGamma:

	for( int i=3D0; i<256; i++ ) red[i] =3D green[i] =3D blue[i] =3D =
(uint8)i;

That is enough to make Nova happy, naturally without fade
effects of course.

Source code (based on very old sources):

Win32 binary:

Regards,
Lauri

Gamma tables have been implemented 9 months ago. Methinks you should
update to the latest CVS sources.

Welcome back, BTW. :-)

Bye,
