Scol 4.5 updates
What is new in Scol ver. 4.5 ? All the graphic features are now processed in 24bits (2d and 3d).
That means the 2d bitmap controls get a better look, the 3d graphics get a better rendering quality, all the videos get a soft color process...
Some functions have been updated, others have been added (image blur, windows alpha transparency, screen capture, serial port communication...).
Scol 4.5 also includes a set of improvements in the network layer.


deprecated functions

  • _CPbitmap16
  • use _CPbitmap24 instead.
  • _DRAWpoly16
  • use _DRAWpoly24 instead.
  • _GETpixel16
  • use _GETpixel24 instead.
  • _PUTpixel16
  • use _PUTpixel24 instead.
  • _c15to32, _c32to15, _c15to24, _c24to15 don't do anything anymore.
    They're still declared in the language though, to ensure the compatibility with scol 4.0 programs
