Rbraz my man, Im having big problems with using the keys with in programs

For example if I have transitions that are activated by the Escape key Or Tab, the transition code will be ignored and the program simply terminates.

Maybe there is a way to flush the keybuffer in one of those libraries, or can it be simply removed from the includes ( as Im using PTC_Close() after everything is done) ?

Btw, I am using the DDraw and MMX adaption to TinyPTC you made and not the ogl stuff.

Cheers and many thanks,
Clyde.

Ok, I'll compile another library without escape key later, but you will need to keep using "GetAsyncKeyState" api command since I don't know how to make it compatible with Freebasic inkey$ command.

That's ok for you 

[Clyde]

Ok dude, that'll be super and thank you. And please the direct Draw & mmx one. This'll be so cool

Cheers buddy,
Clyde.

Here's the special lib version for you Clyde, I'm using the old FB 0.15 , I guess you will need to change that "tinyptc.bi" included.

Good luck!

Just dropping by because I noticed a possible bug which occurred in Lithium's AntiMan and shockwave's invite for the 20 sec compo - I normally have FRAPS running in the background to monitor framerates of stuff and take vids, and when I run a program using this TinyPTC replacement (at least that's what I assume the culprit is), my primary monitor is totally black after the program exits and won't repaint until I drag some specific programs across it (I have a dual-monitor setup).  Not sure if this is a FRAPS bug or a problem with this lib or both, but just wanted to let you know.  If I close FRAPS first and then run the programs, they work fine, so I'd lean toward it being a problem with FRAPS, but then again, FRAPS seems to work fine with other programs.  No big worries, just a heads up.  (btw, FRAPS reports a nice steady 60 FPS )

Thanks DrV Rbraz will find this feedback useful I am sure. He likes to do the best ob he can on Ptc

This version of TinyPTC was coded by Gaffer 6 or 7 years ago 

It could fail with some new software that use directx, I had a similar problem using a software called "MediaKey", I need to uninstall it to run Tinyptc programs.
