Question about sprites - Forte - 04-01-2007
This is newbish but can someone point me in the right direction; I want it so npc's and players have different sprite sheets.

its simple actually. Create a new surface, copy and paste the sprite surface make it DD_NPCSurf or something then go to bltnpcand change it to DD_NPCSurf.
Public DD_NPCSurf As DirectDrawSurface7
Public DDSD_NPC As DDSURFACEDESC2
Code:
' Init npc sprite ddsd type and load the bitmap
DDSD_NPC.lFlags = DDSD_CAPS
DDSD_NPC.ddsCaps.lCaps = DDSCAPS_OFFSCREENPLAIN Or DDSCAPS_SYSTEMMEMORY
Set DD_NPCSurf = DD.CreateSurfaceFromFile(App.Path & "\npcs.bmp", DDSD_Sprite)
DD_NPCSurf.SetColorKey DDCKEY_SRCBLT, keyThen got to bltnpc and find whatever you can find of dd_spritesurf and change it to dd_npcsurf. simple.

Yeah if you need help IM me

Why would he need help if I were to just give him the code on a platter? Simple enough and if you don't understand....

Nothing wrong with being nice. It goes a long way.

He's right, and besides pando... there's an error in the code you posted. Can you spot it?
(it never hurts to be helpful)
- Tony - 04-01-2007
"\npcs.bmp", DDSD_Sprite) I left this error for him just to get better. This is how some people taught me. Its a nice way to learn.

You can also do this with paperdoll. Just make a new surface called equipmentsurf and change the itemsurf in bltplayer to equipment surf.
