How does the lightning/bolt attack work. Does it come down smoothly or in 8x8 sections?

Spellshaper · « **Reply #106 on:** December 23, 2005, 11:48:00 pm »

due to xLib, I could make it come down smoothly...

the lightning bolt animation consists of two 16*39 sprites. ( I switch back and forth between them in animation for a "sizzle" effect

)

for bolt spell I used line( commands as you can see in this screenie.

It could be done with xlib lines as well though

Ok, sweet. Is xLib going to support inverse lines? (white on black)

Spellshaper · « **Reply #109 on:** December 24, 2005, 04:35:00 am »

looks nice, but methinks line( would be a bit to slow...

maybe I

I think so, it support white lines, black ones and XOR (inverted)

cool stuff... I want the new xLib NOW

that

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #112 on:** December 24, 2005, 10:06:00 am »

wow cool reminds me TVF and FF together

the 16x16 sprites look nice here in the battle screen imo.

For xLIB you should ask tr1p1ea on #tcpa on IRC, since you live in europe you might have a better chance to catch him in the morning (he mostly comes while I am sleeping at 2 AM GMT-5) or send him a PM over Maxcoderz forums because he doesnt always come here

I might ask him if I can post a link to the new xLIB in the staff forums here because practically every omnimaga staff works on a xLIB project atm

Spellshaper · « **Reply #113 on:** December 24, 2005, 10:27:00 am »

ah ok I

DJ Omnimaga · « **Reply #114 on:** December 24, 2005, 10:29:00 am »

hmm for IRC client I recommend Chatzilla or IRC and check the instructions in the IRC page on Omnimaga

Spellshaper · « **Reply #115 on:** December 25, 2005, 07:29:00 am »

ok, got chatzilla and I posted in the maxcoderz thread about tr1p1ea needing beta testers...

the new xlib is awesom!!! one suggestion though, maybe u should make the bars a little clearer for the battle screen, cause when i first see them, i didn't really kno wat it was
