I have the map data almost all the way through Veridian, and once that is complete, I will begin workin on a walking engine. Let you know how this goes...

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #1 on:** November 25, 2005, 07:11:00 am »

how many maps do you have so far (I mean 16x8 ones)?

tifreak · « **Reply #2 on:** November 25, 2005, 07:22:00 am »

Ok, first an explanation on the mapping:

L=0; Base row, starting on the bottom of the map
M=0; Base column, starting on the left of the map

I have completed:

L=0 - L=30

L=0 - L=27, M=7 - M=8

L=28 - L=30, M=7 - M=9

I hope that is understandable...

So far, there is three map packs, and I am trying to keep the map packs down below 4000 bytes...

hmm, yeah. Group the maps in horizontal rows like I do for MetBas83+ (there's 6 mapprogs and 36 papparts)

hmm in my games i grouped them in vertical, but I guess horizontal is better for platform games if you dont want too many sub programs

tifreak · « **Reply #5 on:** November 26, 2005, 04:43:00 am »

Actually, I am doing them in sections...

Section 1:L=0 - L=11, M=7 - M=8
Section 2:L=12 - L=24, M=7 - M=8
Section 3:L=25 - L=36, M=7 - M=9
etc...

This is the easiest I have found to do it, so far...

ah I see, sound like a nice idea, I should think about this when making another game since xLIB is gonna prbly have resource like abilities, which are more powerful than FG

tifreak · « **Reply #7 on:** November 26, 2005, 05:11:00 am »

Yeah, I really need to look into Resource...

http://omnimaga.dyndns.org/index.php?showtopic=759 the authors readme is somewhat confusing, so I wrote another %)

Alright, Thanks.

Maps now display, I just need to add the characters that can't we walked through...

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #11 on:** December 04, 2005, 02:52:00 pm »

sound nice

I really dunno why I never played pokemon, even on emu

tifreak · « **Reply #12 on:** December 07, 2005, 11:04:00 am »

lol

It is a fairly fun game, you would like it I am sure...

Anyways, I have on paper all the characters that cannot be walked on or through in their respective directions, plus I also decided the jump from ledge routines will be in 3 seperate events, to make things a lil smoother...

I just wish I was sick enough that I didn't have to go to work, I could just program all day...

tifreak · « **Reply #13 on:** December 08, 2005, 04:35:00 am »

Running into a slight problem, I have about 10 characters per direction that the calc has to look at, to see if it should progress or not. So far, I have two possible solutions:

Using a for loop, which will definitely cause lag time

Using a sub-program, which will contain all 4 directions worth of hit detection.

I was wondering if any one might have a different suggestion.

hmm could you post the code,because I dont really understand what you mean?
