Publisher's Synopsis
This work is intended for C programmers who develop high-speed graphics and special effects for the PC without the benefit of a graphics co-processor. It introduces a disk library of sprite management routines that emulate segments of the graphics co-processor, allowing programmers to easily create graphic elements for full-motion game, animation and multimedia programs.;Compatible with any DOS- and VGA-equipped PC, this C code demonstrates the process of creating bit-plane sprite graphics for demanding video applications. It also shows how to represent on screen the fast, smooth movement of sprite graphics in all directions, with full collision detection support.
