Opportunity to push/promote Ada coming soon (Can this be pinned?)

Yeah, I saw, thanks.

A silly question, maybe, Iā€™ve seen that Mix_LoadWAV and Mix_PlayChannel in SDL.Mixer are not implemented. The SDL docs say that they were macros before but they have been promoted to proper API functions. Is it worth giving them a new biding? I was able to complete the sound effects and music tutorial with what is already implemented. I assume you made it when they were still macros.

I didnā€™t create the mixer bindings, someone else did. But yeah, thatā€™s likely why they werenā€™t bound.

64

Oh, I see. I thought you were the original author. Well, what is there works fine so Iā€™ll just a make a note and if I have the time, Iā€™ll use it as an exercise. Thanks.

65

I am of SDLAda, but someone else wrote the mixer part based on SDLAda and submitted it.

66

Definitely, feel free to add them and send a PR, to the mixer project :slight_smile:

67

Iā€™ve just checked where you are in the lazyfoo tutorial, did you do the rumble stuff because thatā€™s missing too?

68

Yes, I skipped it, I have nothing to try it with :roll_eyes:

Hi again Luke,

I finally got around to doing the timer tutorials on Lazyfoo. The frame calculation in the original just does an average on the total frame count since the program starts, so I wanted to go one step further and Iā€™ve added an ā€œimproved_frame_calculatingā€ project that does a better job, if youā€™d like to have a look. It takes a number of samples and averages them out, the number of samples can be changed to average for more or less time. Iā€™ve tried to make it as Ada-like as possible. As always comments are very welcome.

Best regards,
Alexis.
