Mirage Source

Anyone have an idea on how I should go about this? All I need is a simple start and I'm sure I could get it done. Thanks.

MAX_MAPX and MAX_MAPY, make sure the picScreen is always evenly divisible by 32.

Lol, No No, I ment like, the vairables saved in the Maps Data file. So any maps X and Y can be adjusted.

Take a look at Robin's Essence's source.

I believe it's Direct X 8 is it not? Would it be worth looking at? I'm using 3.0.3 of Mirage.

You really should use MS4 if you're starting fresh.

And I'd look at Robin's code. It's drawn with DirectX8, but I'm sure you can get the jist of how it all works.

I've been working on my game for about a year or two now, I'm not restarting with MS4. Oh, and I'll be sure to check out Essence.

You need to include the mapx and mapy sizes in the packets. Then you need to redim the map array to that size, and change all map processing code to handle different size maps (it might mostly be ok already)

And of course, a way to display them and a way to edit them

So, everything went okay, Untill now. The maps get created, then when they load I get RTE 7 Out of Memory, The error referring to the following line of code;


Now when I hover over map(i).x and map(i).y, I see the following
and

Now in clear map, which is called in the initServer sub, map(i).x and .y each = 5.

Any Ideas?

what is your map x?

what is your map y?

mapx*mapy*tilesize = memsize;

memory in your computer = maxmem;

if memsize > maxmen then
FAIL
call backupplan
else
wewt
end if


sub backupplan:
find a way to optimize your maps, load into memory only what is displayed.
end sub
