Crimson warfare

[Eeems]

sure I'll see what I can do

[geekboy1011]

thanks eeems if you plan on doing it on calc a good editor is pyto edit 4.0 on ticalc.org it works great for editon use the mods there good

[Eeems]

I know, (it's pyro not pyto) but I might just do it by hand

[geekboy1011]

sorry for the spelling error teach was coming and had to hurry if you notice i dont do any spellchecking on these posts srry
ok iam looking forward to seeing them and i think we should definitly use celtic 3 it is awsome:)

[ztrumpet]

[Eeems]

hmm, I think I already pointed that out in his first code...
(side note, never use =0 use Not( instead)

[geekboy1011]

Oops forgot to pu the zero before the second loop and i will try changing it



like this


while 1
0
while ans=0
getkey
end
"insert if statments here minus the gotos"
end



any other questions?




random question how good is doors cs i have only used mirage

[Weregoose]

While 1
Repeat Ans
getKey
End
End

Did you get it that time?

[Eeems]

never use Ans=0 always use the Not( command!!
and yes, use what Weregoose suggested

[geekboy1011]

ok i must be very stupid and imcopetent because i cant get any of the code you guys suggested to work i might not be doing it right but i personally cant get it to work the not any thing just makes it quit after 2 key presses so i dont know what to say

[Eeems]

ok, how are you using Not( ? and repeat should work, I get it to every time

[geekboy1011]

1 what should i put in not(
2 why should i not use while ans=0
there are no memery leaks i think it did not show any

[Eeems]

ok, Not( is like =0, so to save a byte use Not(Ans instead of Ans=0 (2 instead of 3)

[ztrumpet]

Also, as I have pointed out, use :Repeat Ans instead of :0:While not(Ans This saves 3 bytes.

[TI-newb]

Geekboy1011, i will give you an example of where you made a Goto-Lbl Memory loss.

:If Ans=45
:Then
:real(10,2,0)
:ClrHome:Output(1,1," "):Stop
:Else
:If Ans=21:Goto SE // Right here<<<< in ur If Then Else Statement. your Goto SE skipped End.
:real(3,2,0
:End

[geekboy1011]

Thanks Ti newb that makes compleat sense and now that i think about it can see why that was also just stupid coding

oh well it works now



to eeems ill try again so thanks and the description helps ill try to use that more often and save some of my precious memery

note; i have so much junk on my calc my max ram is like 20000 not the standard 23000+ so i see how that can be really useful

[Eeems]

hmm, maybe you should get rid of the stuff you don't need, and archive the stuff you aren't using...

[geekboy1011]

alright i am still looking for ideas on the battle engine and should have most of the menus up by the end of next week
(i am still in school and it is very close to finals time)



i know it is easier to do them now but those small optimization i would like if you could tell me about them and when we are done optimize the code.


to eeems i am probally going to clear every thing and just reload most of what is on it it is just to much to go thru and not mess up what i want on there (not i have over 250 file on mine not including tios files )

[Eeems]

tios files aren't ever included in any measurement...
I'll try to give you some help with the optimizing when you need it. by the way how did you get the greyscale opening screen? did you make it yourself or use a program?
EDIT: I was taking a quick look at the sprite sheets and it looks like you have some really good ones but your people need work...maybe you could go for a larger sprite size? it would make it easier to work with

[geekboy1011]

the start screen is just 3 pics fastly rotated using the code
i made it my self just went with the idea that popped into my head when i was bored and is hard coded aka(look at code)


while ans=0 (yes again)
real(3,.....
real(3,.....
real(3,.....
getkey
end

obviously this can be done with any other pic set so if you have better title screen i will gladely convert it and try it


the .... being the pic #


the pics are pic 3,4,5,6 it is 3 of those 4 cant remember (check post time "it be late)

by tios file i meant graph data (coord data) etc



i want to keep the sprites as small as possible so the screen looks less clustered can someone get me 2 good images of still flames on the calc a bit smaller than 1/3rd the size of the screen vertically i cant find them and can definetily not draw them (for main menu flames on side choices in the middle if it works it looks cool idk i hope it will work i plan on using close to the same method for a home screen menu i made with randomly drawn math symbols on the sides

idea for title screen tell what you think


moving backround in a diagonal pattern like for those who have played bowling (hosted on unitedti )can see in the splash screen
just tell what you think please
