Re: [Feature] Dynamic sprite sizes! - Labmonkey - 14-04-2009
init the surface before you run the code. Also change all of the ddsd_sprite to dds_sprite.surfdescription. Thats what I did and it worked fine.

How would i init the surface ?

Here's my clipper code (Dugor helped with it a long time ago, makes surfaces not disappear when off screen):
Code:
If Y < 0 Then
rec.Top = rec.Top - Y
Y = 0
End If
If X < 0 Then
rec.Left = rec.Left - X
X = 0
End If
If X + Anim_Size(AnimNum).SizeX > DDSD_BackBuffer.lWidth Then
rec.Right = rec.Right - (X + Anim_Size(AnimNum).SizeX - DDSD_BackBuffer.lWidth)
End If
If Y + Anim_Size(AnimNum).SizeY > DDSD_BackBuffer.lHeight Then
rec.Bottom = rec.Bottom - (Y + Anim_Size(AnimNum).SizeY - DDSD_BackBuffer.lHeight)
End IfJust change the Anim_Size stuff to whatever the size of the surface is.

Updated to work with the latest MS4.
Basically, the lHeight and lWidth were being stored in the .SurfDescription when the sprite ready-ing code was called, which came after all the calculations were passed. I changed it so this was called before the calculations.

Using Giaken's clipping code, I'm trying to modify it a bit to work with Advocate/Matt's dynamic maps version of MS4. The X clipping works fine as:
Code:
' Is player's X more than max map values..?
If X + (DDSD_Sprite(Sprite).lWidth / 12) > MAX_MAPX * 32 + 32 Then
With rec
.Right = .Right - ((Map.MaxX / 2) - 24)
End With
End IfI know the formula should be similar for the Y clipping, but I can't seem to get it to work properly. Any ideas?
Re: [Feature] Dynamic sprite sizes! - GIAKEN - 05-09-2009
An easy way to fix clipping problems is to convert map drawing to using Blt instead of BltFast. The way DirectX 7 works is BltFast takes out clipping, resizing, and whatever other things and just simply draws it to the screen, which makes it faster. Clipping code is already set up with like DD_Clipper I think...but it only works with Blt.
