Sprite Maker

[meishe91]

So finally I am getting a version that I'm quite satisfied with. As far as I know this there are no known bugs so please inform me if any are found.

So this spriter is quite revolutionary, I think and have been told. Some of the features may run a bit slow but that is only due to the limitations of TI-BASIC. These programs, depending which one you use, will pad the side/s of the sprite to the nearest multiple of eight. This means that if you are making a 5*7 sprite and happen to use the one that pads both sides then it will give you a hexadecimal code for a 8*8 sprite, padding zeros on. If you use the one that only pads width then it will give the hexadecimal code for a 8*7 sprite.

Features for this program include:
-Any sprite size (well from 1*1 to 88*63 (padding width only) or 88*56 (padding both sides))
-Gray cursor.
-Cursor wrap around.
-Invert the sprite.
-Clear the sprite.
-Rotate the sprite 90º to right and left.
-Flip the sprite horizontally or vertically.
-Single row or column filling or deleting.
-Single row or column inverting.
-Supports sprites from one pixel in size to a size of fifty-six pixels.

Arrows - Move the cursor around.
[2ND] - Turns the current pixel on or off.
[MODE] - Rotates the sprite 90º to the left.
[DEL] - Rotates the sprite 90º to the right.
[X,T,Θ,n] - Flips the sprite horizontally.
[STAT] - Flips the sprite vertically.
[ALPHA] - Inverts the sprite.
[MATH] - Inverts the current column.
[X^-1] - Inverts the current row.
[APPS] - Turns the whole row on.
[SIN] - Turns the whole row off.
[PRGM] - Turns the whole column on.
[COS] - Turns the whole column off.

They Sprite2Hex_PadBothSides.8xp stands at 877 bytes and Sprite2Hex_PadWidthOnly.8xp is 868 bytes. (Unfortunately with the new updates them made it bigger )

cool
add in a few more tools (mebbe rotation/flipping and saving the previous sprite) and that could be rather useful, especially because it's pure basic so anyone can use it

[meishe91]

Ok, I added in rotation and flipping horizontally. Any other features before I release the next version?

[meishe91]

Ok, here is the next release of my sprite maker. If anyone thinks of more features I will add them, or at least try to.

[2ND] - Turns a pixel on or off.
[ALPHA] - Inverts the sprite.
[MODE] - Rotates the sprite 90º (or π/2 radians )to the left.
[X,T,Θ,n] - Flips the sprite horizontally.
[CLEAR] - Clears the sprite.
[ENTER] - The "finish" button to get the hexadecimal code.

P.S. The only feature I can think of right now is making it so you can create multiple sprites in one go.

Wow, looks great!

If you are starved for features, how about 16x16 and vertical flipping?

[meishe91]

Wow, looks great!

Thanks

If you are starved for features, how about 16x16 and vertical flipping?

Ya, I've thought about doing 16*16. I haven't decided though for sure yet but I might just make it so you can make any size sprite you want from 4*1 to 62*94 sprites (if you really needed). I don't know how possible that is but I could probably figure something similar out.

I can add vertical flipping it just will add that much more code when you can make the sprite any direction between the flipping and rotating in it right now. But I can if people want it. Thanks.

What about grayscale? Is it written in axe or basic? I can't tell

[SirCmpwn]

If you are going to support 62*94 sprites, you need a different calculator .  However, if you meant 94*62 sprites, you will probably want to turn off the axis.

It's pure 100% TI-BASIC. Look at the sub-forum

If you are going to support 62*94 sprites, you need a different calculator .  However, if you meant 94*62 sprites, you will probably want to turn off the axis.

Psh...details, details And ya I know. The axes are just always off on my calculator so I didn't think about turning it off.

I'm thinking I will make a plan with features tonight or something and then rewrite it all or something. I just would like to know what all I'm implementing before I do that. So, I would like to invite you all still to make suggestions

Features as of now:
-Rotation in both directions.
-Flip horizontally and vertically.
-Invert the sprite.
-Clear the sprite.

Possible features:
-Multiple sprite support.

The axes are just always off on my calculator so I didn't think about turning it off.

That's exactly the opposite of my calculator mine are almost always off.

Isn't that what I said I about mine? Or did you mean on?

[SirCmpwn]

Oh, my mistake

[willrandship]

Yeah. Who needs axes? Heck, when i graph stuff at school i never turn the axes back on, since I end up needing trace for anything that I can't solve in my head.

Looks nice.  How about using this code:
If K=45
Text(-1,0,0,"  // 2 spaces

Regardless, nice job!
