I am working on a grayscale minesweeper game (well duh).

Current screenshot:

Current version attached.

Btw I am estimating 82 fps on an 84+SE!

Attached? I see no attached file...

Great, a timer! Now we need the number of mines that are unknown.

Wow! Nice game. :king:

And yeah, you need to attach the file.

how do you make it so that when click on an empty space with no bombs around it, it hits every empty space that it is adjacent to it, then hits all spaces adjacent to all the spaces that are empty and so on. aka when you hit one spot and multiple spots are uncovered (if you were confused by m description). i tried making a minesweeper in basic but that part of the game never worked with any speed, yours seems to go lightening fast, is there some way you could explain the alg you used? or is it just one of those asm>basic times?

btw the game looks really cool, i like the timer's font especially.

Sorry, file is attached now. And I used a recursive algorithm, pretty much it uncovers the 8 around it and when it hits a space it saves the current position and calls the routine for the space you hit.

82 FPS!!!! That's crazy dude! How do you calculate FPS? Like what kind of an Assembly routine do you use?

calc84maniac · « **Reply #6 on:** March 25, 2007, 03:22:00 pm »

I tweaked the number of times it had to go through the loop before updating the timer until it was synchronized with my watch, and it ended up as 82 times.

Is this in Assembly or Basic? I'm just wondering.

calc84maniac · « **Reply #8 on:** March 26, 2007, 04:12:00 am »

Uh, this is definitely is asm.

dinhotheone · « **Reply #9 on:** March 26, 2007, 07:45:00 am »

i dont think you could even get a blank loop to run at 82fps in basic.

you can't lol

Not to pry, but are you interested in helping me with DK? It's a really daunting task, and the extra help would be much appreciated.
Anyways, minesweeper looks frikin awesome, nice work! :king:

[ot]I'll think about it Jon[/ot]

*bump*

Now I added the ability to enter in your initials when you get a high score, and I added smooth mouse scrolling!
