Yeah it was funny the problem was about commented lines, and dys. I couldn't create your error and I tested all 255 pics (took long enough!). This is my favorite app ever! Runs really close with cruchyOs....

well, I'd like to request a feature but I am almost sure you'd say no. Are all routines which might pressent self modifying off limits...like a routine to read and one to amend/replace a line of code form a specified program at a specified line? (perhaps at just reading a line of code?)

Oh man... let's just let him get this version out before we request more stuff...

I was asking if I could expect a straight no on the issue so I could try and begin finding an alternate way to do something if I had to

I am sorry necro, but all requests are off for the time being. I still need to know if the existing functions are working properly so that i can release this beta publically.

Have the functions been tested thoroughly? Has anyone found any more problems? These are the things that i need to know.

Dysfunction, i was unable to recreate the LD sprite error, with unaligned clipped sprites ... what exactly happens? Could you possibly make me a screenie?

Ok, it seems it only occurs if they are drawn off the left edge of the screen and that sprite is not updated. Example- note how the sprite appears on the left edge of the screen 8 pixels at a time even though it is only being scrolled 1 pixel at a time

This is another ld bug which I suspect is related. Note how weird lines show up on the screen:

The way I fixed this is to have an empty pic which I LD in place, then I XOR the 2 large scrolling background sprites over it. I have no fix for the first bug however, except to use OR or XOR when possible.

Would you also be able to email me an example program showing the error? If so that would be great!

I got a strange error with the older xLIB, I got it off ticalc.org. I scrolled the lcd and I got a bunch of random lines for a bit before actually getting the right image.

I can't seem to find anything that hasn't already been noted, though it would be nice if the clear screen had optional lcd updated...thats about it

Ooops, well it actually does and has for quite some time ... just forgot to document it

.

I would really like to grab an example program of which demonstrates the LD bug Dysfunction. I am not able to replicate it myself :S. Just a simple demo will do.

So it does...awsome!

I wrote a smooth scroller using the LCD scroll method and tilemapper. It scrolls 8 pixels. That way collision detection is easy, but I get the fun of saying that it is scrolling. However, it is really slow. Is the scroll LCD function slow or do you think I just made some bad structure?
