Eukalyptus the GDI+ guru ported the Warp Text to Splines to GDI+ (thread on German forum with examples).

I had the idea to mix his example 7 with some GDI+ elements to create an old school Amiga style intro.

Here how it looks:
post-29844-0-14991200-1367344847_thumb.j

It is very CPU intensive and running with acceptable speed only on newer CPUs.

Download: Text to Bezier Intro.7z (20 downloads previously)

Use latest 7-Zip tool to extract archive properly.

Source Code can be seen here: http://pastebin.com/U24ACRAr

Credits: see scroller.

To start the intro in benchmark mode either change line 23 or compile it and start it with one of following parameter: "/b", "/benchmark" or "/bench".
Results will be written to Benchmark.txt in script dir.


Here some benchmark results:

No problem there is a proverbs in my country that say:

Chi va piano va sano e va lontano

Maybe (?) in english you can traslate it to:

Slow and steady wins the race.

By the way nice work it's impressive what autoit can do, and it's smooth too.

Shouldn't it be "piece of cake" ?

Edit: Why not add the Graphic card info? It has more impact on the fps than the CPU.
