GLPro 8

GLPro 8 is a royalty free multimedia engine. The entire engine is less than 330K. GLPro 8 creates single EXEs and SCRs with no external DLLs, VBXs, OCXs, drivers or other requirements. GLPro 8 supports JPEG, GIF, BMP, PCX, TGA, TIFF, and it's own native GLi file format. There is also support for MP3. It also has full support for MCI interface including AVI, WAV, MPEG, MIDI, Laserdisc, etc.

Executable database files can be embedded in your GLPro 8 applications and indexes can be created on the fly.

Set your preferences and customize your tools easily and conveniently.

GLPro 8 has it's own animation generator that will take GIF, GLPRO GLi, PCX, FLI, and FLC files, and output an optimized file that is substantially smaller than the original image files. The output files can have transparent colors and can be played forward and backward on multiple layers.

You can embed fonts in your GLPro 8 applications for shipping and can anti-alias and apply soft shadows.

And as in GLPro 7, the help is totally awesome. If you have a question, for the most part, the help file should be able to answer it along with helping to show you all the powerful things that GLPro 8 can do.

Some new features in GLPro 8:

• GLPro 8 syntax has been redone to make it easier to learn and understand.

• GLPro has gives you the choice between two run time engines.

• GLPro 8 now has new file extensions

• .GLs - the GLPRO script file format. GLPRO can still execute version 7 syntax scripts in the older .TXT format if required.

  .GLi- the GLPRO image file format. This format is exactly the same as the GLPRO PIC and CLP file formats. In older versions of GLPRO, both PIC and CLP formats were internally the same file format, though CLP files generally contained an x and y offset and no palette, as opposed to a PIC file which did. The new .GLi image file format extension is the same as these PIC and CLP image files and can contain a palette or no palette, and can contain x and y offsets or no offsets.

  .GLf - the GLPRO font file format. This GLPRO-specific font format allows you to embed fonts into your application so you do not need to install TrueType fonts onto a users system. The .GLf font format can be optionally highly compressed via the GLPRO Font Editor, and can generate exceptional on-the-fly anti-aliased text.

  .GLa - the GLPRO animation file format. This file format is exactly the same as the GLPRO version 7 .DFF format.

  .GLp - the GLPRO project file format. This file is created by the GLPRO Editor and keeps track of a GLPRO project's setup, including source directory paths, output filename, command line options, classname, icon file and much, much more. It is not compiled into a final EXE or SCR file.

GLPro 8 is easy to learn and easy to use. For multimedia, GLPro 8 is the software to have. Download a free trial from the GLPro 8 web site and try it out for yourself.
