As far as I can tell Darkbasic Professional has never had a Save Bitmap Command. However, you can copy the bitmap to an image then save the image.

[edit] WickedX ninja posted...

You can use save image. If you have the bitmap, convert it to an image and save it like this:



I remember there being some problem with the saved image scaling itself to a dimension with the base of 2 (like 128x128, 256x256 etc. but nothing in-between, even if your bitmap was something like 5345x823). There's some flag you need to set and I don't know what or where Could someone post a solution to that?

Yes it did, which is why the following compiles:



A bit pointless because the exe file runs with the error that Brux mentioned. It was removed ages ago (6 years ago?) with the advice to use save image instead as mentioned by others above.

You'll be amazed at the things lying around in the dustbin of history.

Earlier I was poking around the DBPro source code and found a MakePyramid function. Using ResEdit I altered the String Table for the DBProBasic3DDebug.dll and got the command working in Darkbasic Professional. Has this command ever been included?

Edit: Attached is the modified dll.
To use: MAKE OBJECT PYRAMID Object Number, Size
