| Always liked hex wargames... Had a nice set of games for my Speccy, like Vulcan by CCS. :-) btw Mainsworthy, if you compile with GUI enabled for Mac, it won't open a Terminal window when you start it - you could also then put the grafix and stuff inside the application bundle (in the Resources folder). |

| At least you don't render the hex map as a single image :-) |
| ||
| -+ Brucey +- Im a bit stuck with the map, I couldnt find any way of windowing(a section of a map) a big image, is it possible? |
| ||
| Ideally, you wouldn't use a big image anyway. You'd render all the hex tiles on-the-fly, based on the terrain of the specific location. Then render the units on top of that. Then the windowing problem wouldn't be a problem any more, as you could decide which parts of the large map you wanted to display, and only render that section to the screen. Otherwise, you might get away with changing the ViewPort before drawing the big map, but this may have issues with some integrated graphics drivers. :-) |
| ||
| "hex tiles on-the-fly, based on the terrain of the specific location. Then render the units on top of that." thats what Ive done, just glad I was right to do it phew, it had me stumped. |
| ||
| Actually many hex based games use static images for maps. The maps themselves are drawn by artists. For example, Panzer General series (PG2 onwards), Close Combat series (player doesn't necessarily realize it's hex based), Decisive Battles series and so forth. |
| ||
| Yes Mr Errors Writer Man your right, I wanted a Map, it was more what blitz could do that I was asking brucey. nice to see your are an wargamer though :) |
| ||
