Off-screen rendering? - Robin - 20-11-2008
![[Image: rendering.png]](http://i38.photobucket.com/albums/e112/Kite_Minase/rendering.png)
Ported by dynamic maps & camera code over from my Dx8 engine and came up with this. Tiles and shit won't render half-way off screen or anything.
Fixes?

I don't know a fix. But everything looks messed up and off. The stat bars, Inventory+ Buttons, Map info. Is that like um? Purposely done?
But as for the in-game problems. Looks like something messed up the x and y map props? I wouldn't know. I don't code LOL

I'm not showing off the game, I'm showing a specific problem. I obviously haven't worked on the GUI yet. As for you guessing what the problem is, you kinda failed because I explained what the problem is.
Don't bother posting if you're gonna post such useless stuff ;D

What happens when you walk to the edge?
Re: Off-screen rendering? - Labmonkey - 20-11-2008
The way i usually fix this is by when setting the rec, check if it is going to draw offscreen, and adjust accordingly.
ie, if x < 0 then recx = recx + x
eh not sure if that makes sense, but hope it helps

As in when you walk towards a direction it renders only part by part and has black at the edges
of the screen?
Re: Off-screen rendering? - Robin - 21-11-2008
Basically, the tiles around the edge won't render because a few of the pixels are off-screen.
If anything is even slightly off-screen, it wont render the entire thing.
You can see that in the tiles & trees.
Jacob found an alright method of fixing it, though.

I do that for sprites & animations, but doing this for EVERY tile would be laggy as fuck.

Did you take this screenshot while walking? Or is it like this when standing still too?
Re: Off-screen rendering? - Tony - 21-11-2008
Danno if this would work since i just started programming again but
Code:
OpenSpace = PIC_X - (ScreenSizeX / PIC_X)
If OpenSpace < PIC_X Then
rec.left = pic_x - openspaceRe: Off-screen rendering? - Coke - 24-11-2008

Re: Off-screen rendering? - Robin - 24-11-2008

Re: Off-screen rendering? - GIAKEN - 25-11-2008
Well is there a way to fix this for DX7?
