Does somebody know how i can load own sprites (enemies) into
The raycast Engine? Im going to make an ego Shooter so i need that.

And can i use other colors for the Walls?

Thanks

What's wrong with this code?

FOR I=0 TO NSHRTCT-1
IF TS$(0)==SHRTCT$(I, 0) THEN EXEC SHRTCT$(I, 1)
NEXT

The first dimension of SHRTCT$ can be of different sizes (based on a user-provided MEM file). That size is stored in NSHRTCT. {Edit: Just to clarify, the size, not the final index, is stored here.}
The second dimension of SHRTCT$ is of size 2.

Error message: Illegal function call (228, EXEC)

@Malltog The EXEC command gives the illegal function call error when you pass it a string with a length not between 1 and 8. So if you pass an empty string or a string of length 9 or more, it will error.

Edit: This is assuming you aren't prefixing with "PRG:", of course. But the same idea applies to the filename.

@calc84maniac
Oh. Now I get it.
I store the values in that array in a file for persistance.
And I PAD THEM WITH SPACES.
Duh. (For others' reference, EXEC also gives illegal function call if the string contains non-alphanumeric characters. Like spaces.)

Please help me!!

@ShadowGames to change the color, edit the data for it. I don't remember what the sub-routine, IamAPerson could help you with that. The graphics cover any sprites you load so you need to do quite a bit of editing before showing sprites.

Wow, I really want the pictures. I was bored so I made a 2d block-building game, and I really just can't do the water texture.

@ShadowGame find the @TEXDATA data sequence. Those numbers are the colours used for the walls. Note: those colours are not text colours. They are 256-colour palette colours. Change that. If you want to change the size of the textures (4x4, 16x16) then tell me.

@IAmAPerson
Thanks!
But One question:
I would make an ego Shooter and i need enemies.
How can i load them into the Labyrinth made with the raycast Engine?

Your welcome. Anyway, I'm not completely sure how to do what you're asking. I'd say something like this: on the map, put a 2 where you want enemies. Then, when it sees a 2, have it place an enemy sprite. Scale it using the DIST variable. That's what I used for render distance (if DIST was greater than 16, then it stops drawing). Make sure that when you kill the enemy, edit the array MAP() where the enemy was from a 2 to a 0, to remove the collision. I think that's how you'd do it. Don't quote me on this.

@IAmAPerson

Thanks!
And how can i make a shot? The sprite for it should spawrns in Front of my player and kills the Enemy.
I Hope my english is right (but i dont think so).
Thanks

@UltraDragnYoshi Awesome I was going to make one, but no one is willing to help.

If i Write a 2 in the Map it gives the error:
Subscript out of range (98, gfill)

Why?

I would need to look at the code to be certain, but from memory, it seems that an array isn't DIMmed big enough. Like I said, I really need to look at the code to make sure. If you load a current Minecraft DS world on some of the older versions like Alpha, the game will crash with that error.

1.6.6 Is almost here!

@0Games I see you're learning C++ now instead of C.

To make up for off-topicness, here's a list of everything MCDSEdit will offer

• Map editing. Use any block and place anywhere.
• Attribute editing. Change location of player, inventory, hotbar, nickname, etc.
• Version conversion. Load a map and it will detect the version and convert to latest version.
• Texture editing. Change textures. I will add after texture pack support is working again.
  Another thing that Minecraft DS Beta 1.7 will include: much lag improvement.

What about copy and pasting between worlds?

@IAmAPerson

The code of line 98-100:
Gfill i,p,j,p+h,tex(t,7)
Gfill i,p-h,j,p,tex(t,6)
P=p-h*2

@Leviceljir I forgot about that!

Yes, if you have an amazing build in a 16x16 world (like me) but is running out of space and want to make it a 32x32 world, you can now do that! I'll make another button called "Change world size"
