| I found this using Google, it's custom created VB6 Functions that act like the shift functions in C. So how would I use these? Like so?:
RShift(romdata(TileOff1),x) |

| Yea well, here is the code I have now, addapted from HH's and some mod's to let VB use it...
Public Sub PaintTile(Buffer As PictureBox) Dim Bit As Byte Dim TileOff1 As Long Dim TileOff2 As Long 'Set colors Pallette2BPP.Color1 = RGB(51, 0, 134) Pallette2BPP.Color2 = RGB(191, 115, 0) Pallette2BPP.Color3 = RGB(0, 207, 255) Pallette2BPP.Color4 = RGB(239, 235, 180) TileOff1 = 202192 TileOff2 = 202200 For y = 0 To 7 For x = 0 To 7 Bit = RShift(romdata(TileOff1), x) And 1 Bit = Bit Or LShift((RShift(romdata(TileOff2), x) And 1), 1) Select Case Bit Case 0: Buffer.Line (x * 2, y * 2)-Step(16, 16), Pallette2BPP.Color1, BF Case 1: Buffer.Line (x * 2, y * 2)-Step(16, 16), Pallette2BPP.Color2, BF Case 2: Buffer.Line (x * 2, y * 2)-Step(16, 16), Pallette2BPP.Color3, BF Case 3: Buffer.Line (x * 2, y * 2)-Step(16, 16), Pallette2BPP.Color4, BF End Select Next x TileOff1 = TileOff1 + 1 TileOff2 = TileOff2 + 1 Next y End Sub Now I get a division by zero on the bolded line... Can anyone see any problems... Also, the RShift and the LShift are custom functions from the link I posted before. |

| OK, here is the function that it's calling:
Public Function LShift(ByVal lThis As Long, ByVal lBits As Long) As Long If (lBits <= 0) Then LShift = lThis ElseIf (lBits > 63) Then ' ... error ... ElseIf (lBits > 31) Then LShift = 0 Else If (lThis And m_lPower2(31)) = m_lPower2(31) Then LShift = (lThis And &H7FFFFFFF) \ m_lPower2(lBits) Or m_lPower2(31 - lBits) Else LShift = lThis \ m_lPower2(lBits) End If End If End Function And the bolded is what's causing the error. |

| OK, I took Disch's C-Esque code and attempted to turn it into VB, seeing as I don't know how the OutputPixel() function works, I just too a random stab in the dark.
Public Sub PaintTile(Buffer As PictureBox) Dim a As Byte Dim b As Byte Dim y As Integer offset = 202192 Pallette2BPP.Color1 = RGB(0, 0, 0) Pallette2BPP.Color2 = RGB(255, 0, 0) Pallette2BPP.Color3 = RGB(0, 255, 0) Pallette2BPP.Color4 = RGB(0, 0, 255) For y = 0 To 7 a = romdata(offset + y) b = romdata(offset + y + 8) Buffer.Line (0, y)-Step(((a / 128) & 1), ((b / 64) & 2)), Pallette2BPP.Color1, BF Buffer.Line (1, y)-Step(((a / 64) & 1), ((b / 32) & 2)), Pallette2BPP.Color2, BF Buffer.Line (2, y)-Step(((a / 32) & 1), ((b / 16) & 2)), Pallette2BPP.Color3, BF Buffer.Line (3, y)-Step(((a / 16) & 1), ((b / 8) & 2)), Pallette2BPP.Color4, BF Buffer.Line (4, y)-Step(((a / 48) & 1), ((b / 4) & 2)), Pallette2BPP.Color1, BF Buffer.Line (5, y)-Step(((a / 4) & 1), ((b / 2) & 2)), Pallette2BPP.Color2, BF Buffer.Line (6, y)-Step(((a / 2) & 1), ((b) & 2)), Pallette2BPP.Color3, BF Buffer.Line (7, y)-Step(((a) & 1), ((b * 2) & 2)), Pallette2BPP.Color4, BF Next End Sub The good news is, it doesn't overflow. The bad news is, it doesn't output anything remotely like the tile it should be. I have attached the tile it outputs. |

| I know im telling it to draw red, blue, black and green. But the offset for the tile isn't straight lines. It should come up as a red, blue, black and green houses. | |||

| See, that would be the problem. I don't know any C, I tried it, and I couldn't get anything to work. SO i'll leave that for a little while. I'll try to figure out this bit in VB then.
EDIT: Ok, I tried that, I got this red/black line dealy. Still no pregress, I should learn how exactly the tiles work maybe... (edited by Arthus on 05-01-06 01:52 AM) |

| Couldn't you use the attachment system here to upload the IPS/ZIP/RAR? Unless it's bigger than 125kb... | |||

| Yes it will, that's the whole point of loading from the game.
And yes I do plan to have a side-screen editor. I'm just sick of trying to load these tiles from the ROM. |

| Here is an 4-entry array of colors, I assumed an array that has 4 values which are colors. And how to draw a pixel to a box.
' Dims name for array Dim Pallette2BPP(0 To 3) As Long ' Puts value in array Pallatte2BPP = Array(RGB(255, 255, 255), RGB(255, 0, 0), RGB(0, 255, 0), RGB(0, 0, 255)) ' Makes actual pixel pic_tiles(0).Line (1, 1)-Step(1, 1), Pallette2BPP(0) The "BF" means "box", and "filled". Which allows you to make a fully colored box using the color you specify. Here is a more detailed look at the use of the ".Line" statement. |

| If you desperatly need somewhere to host it, you could send it to me via e-mail/IM or what not, and I will host them. | |||

| OK, tried that, gives out something rather interesting... see attachment below.
Also I shall to the best of my knowledge correct the assumptions: 1) I think if you make the start and end co-ords 0,0. The pixel isn't going anywhere. So I think 0,0 to 1,1 would draw a pixel. 2) Yes, you are correct. 3) OK... 4) OK... 5) Yes, you are correct. EDIT: I forgot to put in the attachment... (edited by Arthus on 05-01-06 11:35 AM) |

| OK, with some modifications, it seems with teh 1,2,3 it keept on adding on. So just ading 1 was just fine like so:
Buffer.Line (0, y)-Step(1, 1), Palette2BPP( etc... Buffer.Line (1, y)-Step(1, 1), Palette2BPP( etc... With that, I get the attached with what it should be (once I change the colors) I also might add that all those Pallette2BPP functions return a 0. |

| You misread my wording:
"I get the attached with what it should be (once I change the colors)" Which means, It should output something similar to that, but before I change the colors to match it the same as the desired pixel. And the functions I was refering to were these: Palette2BPP( ((a / 128) And 1) + ((b / 64) And 2) ) And they are now not returning 0. They are returning numbers like 1677215 and 65280... Also, i'll look into a put pixel or somthing... |

Arthus 140 Since: 11-17-05 From: Australia Last post: 6513 days Last view: 6513 days |
| ||
| But shouldn't they be outputting 0-3 instead of 65280-1677215? | |||
|
Arthus 140 Since: 11-17-05 From: Australia Last post: 6513 days Last view: 6513 days |
| ||
| Yea the tiles as a whole. I know where they are as well, but I can't seem to load anything remotly like it. | |||

| Will you be able to go through it normally then later speed run the crap out of it? | |||

| OK, I'm using the PSet method, and i'm still getting the same result:
Public Sub PaintTile(Buffer As PictureBox) Palette2BPP = Array(RGB(255, 255, 255), RGB(255, 0, 0), RGB(0, 255, 0), RGB(0, 0, 255)) Dim a As Byte Dim b As Byte Dim y As Integer For y = 0 To 7 offset = 201744 a = romdata(offset + y) b = romdata(offset + y + 8) Buffer.PSet (0, y), Palette2BPP(((a / 128) And 1) + ((b / 64) And 2)) Buffer.PSet (1, y), Palette2BPP(((a / 64) And 1) + ((b / 32) And 2)) Buffer.PSet (2, y), Palette2BPP(((a / 32) And 1) + ((b / 16) And 2)) Buffer.PSet (3, y), Palette2BPP(((a / 16) And 1) + ((b / 8) And 2)) Buffer.PSet (4, y), Palette2BPP(((a / 8) And 1) + ((b / 4) And 2)) Buffer.PSet (5, y), Palette2BPP(((a / 4) And 1) + ((b / 2) And 2)) Buffer.PSet (6, y), Palette2BPP(((a / 2) And 1) + (b And 2)) Buffer.PSet (7, y), Palette2BPP((a And 1) + ((b * 2) And 2)) Next End Sub |

| ZSNES 1.36 works with it.
I feel like a complete tool by asking this... But, where are the bombs?  |
