Portable video/keyboard/mouse support #3

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Background:
KeeperFX, like original DK, uses Direct Draw drivers to support video and
keyboard. For mouse support, Win32 API handlers are used.

Problem:
Direct Draw causes problems on new systems, and is only supported by
Microsoft Windows OS. It would be better to use some multi-platform library
for KVM support.

Solution:
Replace DirectDraw use with SDL - open-source and portable library which
has strong position, is constantly updated and used in many games.

KVM now uses SDL.
