1. Re: Newbie Alert!
Hello Paul,
I can answer some of the question by rewriting your code.
(Untested code)
include graphics.e
include image.e
include get.e
use_vesa(1) -- Some cards can't support some graphics mode (I can't explain
why in english, i'm spanish =) )
-- and sometimes your unable to see all the screen like yours
so, you can use this command to
-- be able to do it (it's slower, but it works!).
integer gmode
gmode=graphics_mode(256)
sequence run,vp
vp=read_bitmap("vp.BMP")
all_palette(vp[1]/4) -- Put the correct colors in the palette
display_image({1,60}, (vp[2]))
while get_key() = -1 do end while -- This will wait until you press a key
run=read_bitmap("run.BMP")
all_palette(run[1]/4) -- Put the correct colors in the palette
display_image({1,1}, (run[2]))
while get_key() = -1 do end while -- This will wait until you press a key
I hope you can understand it now! =)
To play WAV files you can use Jacques Deschene's library (I think I
don't know how to spell it right, sorry) or Ectasy Sound library.
The mouse routines that eu4 have as defaults (mouse.e) doesn't support
resolutions higher than mode 19, so look in the archive at eu4's site,
for some libraries that are capable to do it.
An example of what you want to do:
(Untested code)
include mouse.e -- Mouse routines
include graphics.e
integer junk
object mouse -- It muse be object, because it can be a sequence or integer
junk = graphics_mode(18)
while get_key() = -1 do
mouse = get_mouse() -- Returns {event, x, y}
if sequence(mouse) then -- If mouse is doing something
if mouse[1] = LEFT_DOWN then
puts(1,"Left Clicked at: "& sprintf("%3d",mouse[2]) & "," &
sprintf("%3d",mouse[3]))
elsif mouse[1] = RIGHT_DOWN then
puts(1,"Right Clicked at: "& sprintf("%3d",mouse[2]) & "," &
sprintf("%3d",mouse[3]))
elsif mouse[1] = MIDDLE_DOWN then
puts(1,"Middle Clicked at: "& sprintf("%3d",mouse[2]) & "," &
sprintf("%3d",mouse[3]))
end if
end if
end while
junk = graphics_mode(-1)
That's all. If you have some other questions, just ask.
