Why is the thread in 2D discussion?

I create an array based on an image, use a memblock to get every pixel in the image and store it to the array, then try drawing it on screen.

I use 32-bit mode. What screen depth should I use?

Thanx for any help.

On my computer, there were two problems.

The memblock is still out of range.

THe next one is that you didnt include my three arrays. One stores
what the color of the point is, another stores the points angle to the center of the image, the one that says dist store the distance from the images center.
Not too big, I can add this back in. My ultimate goal is to rotate the image using memblocks.

Why are you making life difficult for yourself?

Just rotate the sprite!

Ahh I see now. The last time I did this I used lines, like an outline around the ship, but actually stored the radius and angle of each segment of the outline. Then using line intersection checks for collision. Worked out pretty nice in the end, and was fairly fast.

@WindowsKiller.
Darn. Its too slow! Man... The reason I did this was because I did it on an 'image' except there was no image, just pixels stored in an array. It went fairly fast when the array was small, so I wanted to replicate it for small sprites.

You should check out that new sprite plugin, pretty sure that has pixel perfect sprite collision, and it's free too. Check the newsletter or go hunting for the thread in program announcements.

@VanB: I don't care for a pp collision plugin that doesn't support rotated sprites. On a positive point, you stored the radius and angle? Gee thats what I was trying to do! It was fairly fast you say? I might try it.

Hi. I am sorry for being a random n00b. I got carried away and started posting to much. Then again I am a little kid.
This has been a public announcement by John- who wants a taco.

AdvancedSprites can only read pixels, similar to the point command, bu t it is used on sprites.
@WindowsKiller
I can't! I need to rotate the sprites 360 degrees. It's ok, Im going to store the pixel information in an array, then save array to save a sprite definition I can load up in my game.

This isn't a sig. It's me disguised a sig. Can you get me out?

Im not going to store arrays for all 360 degrees of motion! That would be ridiculous. What Im going to do is create 3 arrays. One that stores pixel color, one for pixel angle from center, one for pixle distance form center.

@AG: WK is right - although theoretically your idea might work, DB isn't fast enough to do that every frame.

Am I missing something or does your next post negate this?
