ok so as all GDK 2.0 users know , when you launch a game or app using DarkGDK 2.0 you get a WHITE screen for just a tiny bit of seconds any chance of changing that into a GDK logo?

mistrel?
i think this would juice up DarkGDK and any project that will use it.
i think it would be pretty awesome and is a must on the final release , just seeing GDK logo instead of the white screen.

thank you , please do it or something similar or atleast let us change the white screen into something else.

DarkGDK doesn't force a white screen to appear, everything to do with the window is controlled by you. It does take a short time to initialise so just make sure you show the window after you call InitDarkGDK() rather than before.

If you create and show the window, then call InitDarkGDK(), the window will be sitting there empty until InitDarkGDK() returns and you call dbOpenScreen.

If on the other hand you call InitDarkGDK() and only then show the window you can call dbOpenScreen immediately after and the window won't be sitting there empty.

I don't get any white screens here either. It' just how you order your init code. If there is nothing to show while GDK initialises then you'll get blank screen.

Although I haven't experienced this issue, I can tell you that the DBP screen attaches to the window much faster in RC5 so this probably won't be a problem in the next release.
