Using pictures only as ascii? #159

Open darkfriend77 opened 6 years ago

darkfriend77 commented 6 years ago

I would like to add some icons and logos to the game, the question is should I use the ascii converter and use small font size? Or is there a utility to add pictures into a console.

Also is there a documentation how to use the ascii renderer ? A code sample which adds a ascii rendered picture to a console?

thx for your help and the great product.

Man that looks awesome! What did you do to solve your problem?

As the engine is based on MonoGame, you can display any 2d graphic easily. I don't have a tutorial on that, but I'll get one written up soon. This question on reddit kind of describes the process https://www.reddit.com/r/sadconsole/comments/8oo8zp/can_sadconsole_handle_pixelperfect_rendering/
