I am thinking about integrating the hex-2-sprite prog into this game, and see how much faster the game loads a map. This wouldn't take terribly long, and it also allows my AOD topic to stay here... ^_^

It is such a shame that the calc that had all the cool updates for that game had a RAM clear. And just out of the blue too, as I had no other program on it, just AODR. The only thing was it had sit for probably 3 weeks...

Just now or recently? Hope it works out for you.

Oh, it was arount September when that happened... And it also had a life bar on the map, to take care of the last 6 or 7 empty pixels at the end of the screen...

oh yeah I remember u said that on tifreakware forums that sucked

Yeah, it was a major bummer... I also had changed the mapping system over to strings, and gotten rid of the matrices...

Well, I have managed to convert around 10 of the tiles into hex, with many more hopefully... I also found some of the documentation that had things translated into strings, so I might be able to even redo that.

Now if I can remember exactly how I did the life bar, things would be back up again...

Cool, glad that your hex->sprite converter came to use outside of pokemon!

sound cool the maps will load faster ^^

They should, and at any rate, it will allow me to have more sprites, and not use nearly as much space storing them! right now, it is a bunch of 0 and 1 in a string...
