Sealbreaker Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 if you want to use it yourself dx8 else dx7 because of the reasons robin mentioned before.-seal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmiguu Posted January 3, 2011 Author Share Posted January 3, 2011 Well there are databases of DX8 modules that have premade subs to make adding textures for 2d graphics within DX8 simple. I think I'll just go with DX7 for the sake of simplicity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You make it sound like you'll never reach that level of comprehension. Honestly, if I can learn it, so can you.I will go with DD7 because there are rules that I am sure would annoy non-coders when DX8 is used (every file for images must be a power of 2).[NEWS]Since I got a decent laptop for christmas, I will start coding on it. Already setup VB6 Enterprise and the mouse wheel add-in. I will start using my site as means to collect my source code from my main host computer (sort of like an SVN, except not like an SVN).

I said that people were struggling using dynamic sprites and the like so they'd stand no chance with restrictions regarding NPOT textures. Once you've got the core engine done and you've made it modular enough it's just as easy as using DD7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carim123 Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 You never know Robin. It might seem impossible, but that's what people said about Origins.We CAN learn it. You can't expect people to get it straight away…[[color=white]even if it was as simple as Dynamic Sprites…] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrmiguu Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 @Lavos:> Take the challenge for Directx8\. xDIt's not a _challenge_. I've already done DX8 before. The problem is that the users of the engine will douse me with 1000 questions on why things won't work or look funny to them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is worrying you so much, what you can do is ignore all the stupid questions. Or the questions that you do not need to answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrmiguu Posted January 5, 2011 Author Share Posted January 5, 2011 @arcanjo:> Ok enough of this chat, we will continue it is importantI didn't program the spell system. I didn't program Origins. I am programming the new PV from **scratch**; meaning it will have systems appropriate for psuedo-side scrollers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
