The problem is not Custom SDL library from Chuí, but the code of Obor, that is, updated the engine without erasing the old functions and is that problem. New code vs. old codes struggling for engine control.
It's a problem it leaks memory also using 200kb just to use sdl .. New openbor code is bloated and only displays 32bit scripts take even more memory so cant taylor the game to the current updating the code base any further is useless. That's why they dropped all dc support.. I took some of the bits from new to allow other colour pal but there too slow to use..
Direct rendering would save more ram the sdl is my custom version of chui code old does not run on kos2.0 at all..
Course can optimize the game for Dreambor but the engine and my code is the limit of any optimizing asm sh4 code was broken last one so elevators and other things dont work.. So far direct rendering does not work just fails to render anything at all..
