Hi!
When I found DJGPP and Allegro, I thought that NOW is the time to move
on to C from QBasic, so I'm quite new at this. But now I have a really
basic problem I just can't find an answer to anywhere else, so now I try
here:
In my game, the playground have to scroll while ca 15 sprites moves
around it. But when I do this, by mixing double buffering and Allegros
scroll_screen, the sprites flicker; they create "ghost" images, when
running across the scrolling screen. It'looks terrible. My game uses
ModeX and I use the following logic:
 move sprites co-ordinates;
 scroll_screen;
 blit(background to buffer);
 blit(sprites to buffer);
 blit(buffer to screen);
This is how someone told me how to do it, but it still doesn't work.
I would be really glad if someone could help me, because the game is
almost ready otherwise.

 Thanks,
 Ville Lundberg
