png Problems

Post by paines »

Hi

I have problems loading and displaying png Files. I am porting a game which uses PNG for all gfx. I can see on console from pksh that everytime a png is loaded the file descriptor stays the same(it's 2 or 3). I changed the code to load tga's and converted all png's to tga files, and everything works fine. libpng comes with a pngtest programm which also failes. The generated PNG looks the same but is shorter for ~20 Bytes.
I saw that png uses zlib and thought maybe thats the problem. But zlib comes also with a test programm which works fine.

Any clue what the problem with png could be ?

libpng passes test
I made a new port of libpng-1.2.33 and zlib-1.2.3 a while ago, and there were some problems upgrading the older versions in svn, but that was solved a few months ago. I did have problems with the previous version of libpng, though. I had to use the libpng binary from the myPS2 project in order to get viewable image data.
