TMX AndEngineExample issue

[Nicolas Gramlich]

I created a tool that transforms TileSets like this:

Original TileSet.

desert_tiled.png (29.02 KiB) Viewed 1594 times

into a TileSet like this:

Fixed TileSet.

fixed_desert_tiled.png (24.26 KiB) Viewed 1594 times

The difference is that each tile now has an additional 1px padding around itself, with the outermost pixel row/column of each side copied into that border. I'm 99,999999% sure this works on every device

As doing this manually will obviously cause serious brain damage , I created this commandline-tool, that handles this task in a fraction of a second. Usage:

Code: Select all

-f C:\Users\nico\Desktop\test\desert_tiled.png -w 32 -h 32 -m 1 -s 1

Could the guys who experienced the flickering please test the latest version from the repository. Thanks

(I'll push the tool to a new repository, once you verified the flickering is now really gone )

Best Regards,
Nicolas

Kudos for that solution

Are you planning on increasing the performance of that little thing? I get 12fps on my N1 when executing the AndEngineExample example.

On the Nexus (Android 2.2) I'm getting. The Camera-Size (800x480) is way too big actually, you can't see much on small displays:

07-29 00:21:56.792: DEBUG/AndEngine(22650): FPS: 44,80 (MIN: 18 ms | MAX: 43 ms)
07-29 00:22:01.802: DEBUG/AndEngine(22650): FPS: 44,12 (MIN: 19 ms | MAX: 40 ms)
07-29 00:22:06.802: DEBUG/AndEngine(22650): FPS: 43,35 (MIN: 19 ms | MAX: 37 ms)
07-29 00:22:11.812: DEBUG/AndEngine(22650): FPS: 40,67 (MIN: 18 ms | MAX: 94 ms)

Switching back to 480x320 should bring it back up to 60 FPS.

my bad, i had an outdated version which probably didn't use the culling i saw in the code.

Totally forgot to post the link to the tool I uploaded to Google Code
Not the most efficient code but still fixes probably any tileset in under a second.

What happens if your tileset doesn't have black lines between tiles? Will the neighboring tile bleed through instead?

Yep

Yep

Well... that sucks.

If your tileset doesn't have these black lines, short of a manual process is their any tool that will insert these black lines automatically. Also if I run this tool on tileset that doesn't have these lines will this work? Or can I just run it through twice and have the same net effect?

Is their a binary only version of this tool?
