Well, he tried with normal hex and failed to get it working. benryves had it working within just a couple hours, if not less.

And yeah, I wanted it to be basic... however, just to dodge some bullets, I have got it now. However, NPC sprites will still be displayed the old fashioned way. Not changing that.

Also, been thinking about the pokemon sprites... for the battle, at least for now, it will just have to look like the pokemon are trying to rape eachother, as I would have to completely go through EACH sprite again, and draw them, backwards... ><

Are you going to at least mirror them? Shouldn't be to difficult (at least I wouldn't think so).
Also, I know your overworld is ASCII, but it wouldn't hurt to use the ASM program to draw The NPC's when you go up and talk to them(why not use it if you have it to use?) . Does your engine draw a graphical sprite everytime you talk to an NPC ? If so, I think I'd use it for that too. They were previously sharing the same sprite drawing routine weren't they?

because the NPC sizes are different, and have are not the same as the pokemon in data. And no, they were using separate routines, because I needed to add stuff for the pokemon sprites, but it would not display both at the same time. Besides, the NPC sprites don't take long to load...

As to mirroring them, that is what I meant. I would have to open up each item in paint, reverse them, redraw them in sprite 2 hex, recompress them, etc. The data would be completely wrong and the hex values would be different for reversal.

Well, I guess I was wrong.

Ahh ok. Glad mirroring worked. It looks alot better that way.

wow that's getting even better and better, almost asm like when it goes into battles and overworld scrolling still seems fast

Indeed, the screenshot I'm seeing three posts above appears impressive. Great work, tifreak.

But... why didn't you ask *me* to do the sprite routine?
- Was I not available at the time?
- Did you think I was too busy?
- Did you think I couldn't do it?
- Did you think I was just gonna rehash Celtic III?
- Was the Mastermind gonna blow up the world if you asked me?

You are too busy running away from #omnimaga people trying to hunt you

Well, you had pushed it before.

Also, benryves offered to do it, and had something up in like, 20 minutes. And, you are busy with your own project.

Please don't take offense to it. Like I said, he offered, and had it up in a short time.

Well... when you finish Pokemon Purple and decide to write another version using a larger graphical lib, please note that Celtic III does have sprite flipping for purposes like what you're trying to do. By the time you're ready to do it, all the major bugs in Celtic III will have been worked out. Such as the pervasive and elusive sprite and (just recently found) line clipping problems.

Indulge in its superior command set! Mwahahahah*choke*gasp*cough*cough*!!! ... whenever you're ready.

Still... 20 minutes on such short notice is pretty fast. I'm not sure I would've been able to rehash Celtic III to provide that functionality in that short of a time. I guess that's what you get when you ask a more experienced ASM coder with a zillion graphic libraries. HAH! Something to aspire to!

Not including the whole "using minimal asm thing" would have been broken

Back to work on trying to get up an event system.

I am really glad your working on this still dan, and I am happy you have a faster sprite displaying program (routine)..I know this is going to be awesome!

@Iambian: He wants it to be mainly basic, but still celtic is great!

tifreak · « **Reply #72 on:** October 09, 2008, 10:56:00 pm »

Well, the events system has begun!!

What do you think for that as a start?

I like the pi man =)
