@Eric (emeforward) I am not sure, if this has to do with this commit here (I didn't have a look, whether it is still in the master branch or not), but the following example I just posted on stackexchange gives you a fast mechanism to copy pixel data from an image data block to a numpy array (~12 ms for a 4k image):

Jumping in on a very old report -- the latest comment was that this change has been added to master, but that does not appear to be the case (or perhaps it was removed later?). I am looking to allow this functionality, so wanted to check if there is some history that one of the maintainers remembers. The end goal is to retrieve rendered frames to send them via a socket.

Hello! Please help me to make 3d models in correct way with only one rendered detail and all other should not be rendered achiving millions of details!!! I will make 3d model of big school for example from only 15 simple details... I have to use Geometry shader for this... But I do not know from what to start please help me and explane in simple cube example. Thank You! (I work already 8 years in 3d only do 3d models... But need to redo them with Geometry Shader) Please help... I do not see answers in internet for this modelling my email 3dkoktebel@gmail.com Will wait from You help for future work! Thanks a lot!

Already in master

• flags are not really being used;

• Missed MEM_freeN(strides) if there is an error in PyBuffer_FillInfo;

Strides are needed when working with multidimensional array.

@Campbell Barton (campbellbarton), could you take a look, too? It seems like you know the subject well (T52827)

Hello, I tested with most of my files using bgl and it worked fine for me. I had only 1 file to test with bge.texture and bgl however. But this sounds ok to me.

I undo some of my changes. It may be best to leave the original Buffer structure untouched.

I added Tristan Porteries (panzergame), Ulysse Martin (youle) from the UPBGE team. I think the have more experience in this kind of things.

It really makes sense bgl.Buffer to have a Buffer Protocol.
I made some changes to the code.

Actually I don't have tested it, I also don't have experience with the buffer protocol and if there are no other issues with it.
Did you have tested the buffer also with some of the other bgl function calls like glTexImage2D()?
Does slicing the buffer still work?

Resigning as reviewer, as I don't have time for BGE work any more.

Thanks very much @Ray molenkamp (LazyDodo) :)
