yea, i'm using dbMakeMemblock, dbMakeMemblockFromImage, and neither of them return pointers to existing memblocks, basically they do nothing at all, is there something i'm doing wrong here?

Hmm apparently memblocks are touchy objects and you have to create them in order from 1 to whatever your max number is. or at least have a memblock 1 i dunno, but i fixed my problem for the most part

No, you can create memblocks from 1 to 257 in any order you want.

Without seeing your original code, I can't tell what was wrong.

Ah okay that's my problem, the limit of 257 memblocks. I've been creating memblocks with the same number as my created objects, starting at 400. is there anyways to increase that limit?

No. Unfortunately, it's hard coded into the library.

That's something which i think should be drastically increased. There should be as many memblocks possible as objects or images

What are you using memblocks for? Operating on 257+ media memblocks per frame isn't exactly going to be fast.
