CyberSoft Vegas Development Kit

Product Overview

CyberSoft Vegas is a static library that can be used to create games. It is designed for Microsoft Visual C++ 6.0 Professional but limited compatibility is available for other compilers.

The library adds a set of classes that are useful in games development. The finished games produced using Vegas will utilize Microsoft DirectX 7.0.

Features

CyberSoft Vegas makes it easy to add the following features (and more) in your game...

• Moving, animated semi-transparent sprites
• Pixel-mode collision detection for non-rectangular sprites
• Automatic redrawing of background graphics as appropriate
• Parallax scrolling backgrounds
• Automatic handling of large backgrounds based on a map
• Integrates with TileStudio for map and tile editing
• Supports all resolutions and color depths available on the hardware
• Capable of playing MOD music files in the background
• Provides low-level DirectDraw access to allow any features which Vegas does not automate

Obtaining the Vegas SDK

The Vegas 3 SDK is now available for download free of charge, which you may use to develop games providing you do not charge for them. Contact CyberSoft if you wish to sell a game that uses Vegas.

Note that Vegas is beta software and not fully supported. It's also not very documented at the moment.
