There is no way to render to a texture on the GPU ?

No, but i found a tutorial doing EXACTLY what I'm doing, which is weird, since this method reduces the performance of my program to about 5 frames per second:

window.clear();
                renderTarget.clear();
        RenderFrame();
                renderTarget.display();
                contentTexture = renderTarget.getTexture();
                auto spr = sf::Sprite(contentTexture);
                window.draw(spr);
        window.display();

edit: I will use views now, I'm still interested why this does kill the performance.

Graphics / Resolution-Independent Rendering?

Hi,
I'm new to smfl and I was wondering how I can scale my content to fit into the window without having a global scale variable which has to be used in every frame. I tried a simple approach with RenderTextures, but calling the GetTexture() method every frame seems to be VERY slow. Any ideas?

Hi, when I'm trying to covert a sf string to a regular c++ string, I'm getting a broken value. When debugging I'm getting a wrong value for size and <Error reading characters of string.> for each character. What's going on here ?


edit: Solved, didn't link the debug dlls, my bad!
