My code:


The text hides behind the image!

And how do I change the text size?

I tried with this:


Error:
error C2660: 'dbTextSize' : function does not take 1 arguments

I do not have a copy of Dark GDK installed right now so i cant find the command or give you the relevant code.

But i believe you have to call a command called dbDrawSpritesLast or something close to that. Search the command list.

No the way you do it, it renders the text, and the the sprite on top of it, since it is called last, put the dbText command after the dbPlay sprite in your while loop, that should do it.

Isocadia

edit: And for the dbTextSize, it returns the size of the tekst, use dbSetTextSize ( int iSize ) to change the size.

@Isocadia

The dbPlay sprite does nothing becouse it has no sprite to play.

Also tried to add the text after it in the while loop and it did not work at all..

SO HOW CAN THIS BE SOLVED?

That was the way i got it to work Isocadia as far as i can recall. It may have been dbDrawSpritesFirst though.

dbDrawSpritesFirst, will cause sprites to be drawn before 3D is rendered. I don't know if it has an effect with other 2D stuff, like text. Its worth a shot though.

if(enemy == Amnzero) runAway();

oo yeah, that was dbdrawspritesfirst's problem with 3d stuff, so better paste the sprites before using dbText():


oh and, if you wont use any 3d objects, you can use dbDrawSpritesFirst

Yes, Hassan is right.
By pasting the sprites you can control their draw priority.

Make sure when you define your sprite, you hide it though.
Paste the sprite in the game loop and then follow up with text.

I got it working now! All you need is the dbDrawSpritesFirst and put the dbText in the while loop!
