Yeah, them's some big images ya got there...
How many images are you talking about in the transition, and over what period of time? (e.g. 10 images in 2 seconds...?) If the images are static, have you considered doing them as a video, instead of animating them each time? Or does the image "grow" out of the TV, getting larger and larger until it fills the screen? Are the images on the CD-ROM? You might consider copying them to the hard drive and loading them but turning the sprite off, that way, the only thing to be done is (possibly) load them into memory and show them. If it has to haul it off of the CD-ROM each time, that might take some time. Better to have them ready to go on the hard drive. - Tab At 03:02 PM 6/14/02 +0200, benjamin \(incorrect\) wrote: >HI there, > >I've been working on an cdrom which plays video's.
