Yeah, so the BMP was only 256 colors (8 bit). I opened it in MSPaint and saved it in 24 bit colors. Then everything worked fine. Just make sure you don't convert the images back to 8 bit. What paint program do you use? The face of a child can say it all, especially the mouth part of the face. |

That is reallllly strange. I guess this wasn't really your fault then... perhaps a bug in your version of MSPaint? I doubt that's the case, but who knows. Does the version I attached work? The face of a child can say it all, especially the mouth part of the face. |

Okay... well that's beyond me. It works fine on my computer. Does it work for anyone else? The face of a child can say it all, especially the mouth part of the face. |

Well put it in the archive too. You can usually find it in your compiler bin folder. If it's not there then just search for it. The face of a child can say it all, especially the mouth part of the face. |

Sounds to me like Money is fucking with all of you; no one can be that stupid. Just look at how many posts he has made showing incredible incompetence and its alleg42.dll edit: i got his attached code to work by simply changing the color. The bug isn't in MSPaint and I'm sure your program works fine johnny; the only bug that exists is in Money's brain

Just want to double check one more time: did you download the version I uploaded and run it as is? Like, without opening the images or anything? The face of a child can say it all, especially the mouth part of the face. |

Please try this: set_color_conversion(COLORCONV_TOTAL); /* this is the new line */ set_color_depth(16); set_gfx_mode(GFX_AUTODETECT, 640, 480, 0, 0); Enter the new line in your code and tell us what happens.

You might want to remove your contacts and just give them to anyone who PMs you for them. Otherwise, you might end up getting a bunch of spam mail. -----sig: |

About the sprite... make sure you save it in Paint as a 16 bit image and not as a 16 colour image. The former could be called something like `64k colours' or `high colours' and the latter just `16 colours'. EDIT: yeah, I meant to say desktop colourdepth, not resolution... |

Maybe I'm missing something (I admit I haven't read the entire thread), but to me it looks like Money is running Windows in 8bpp mode, that's why Paint refuses to work in anything else... Money: Right click on your desktop, select "properties", then the the "settings" tab and in the "color quality" list select "32 bit" or something. Then click "apply" or "OK". -- |

Quote: Maybe I'm missing something (I admit I haven't read the entire thread), but to me it looks like Money is running Windows in 8bpp mode, that's why Paint refuses to work in anything else... The problem is you can't tell from his screenshot. Because he must have been using mspaint to make that image, and since mspaint is (as one possibility) broken. My guess is that Money is either using Windows in 8-bit mode, which I consider very unlikely, or that his mspaint is broken, which also sounds unlikely. But in the Microsoft world, nothing is impossible, except for the good stuff.

alright, i got it to work, turns out it was ms paint messing up, i downloaded neopaint and edited the palette to 255, 0, 255, and used that as the background, so i guess i stick with neopaint thanks all of you for helping me out, i have not yet seen a post this long for one problem, sorry about the credits i had did that earlier, on like the 1st page, but thank you all so much, you've been such a big help Credit goes to all who replied on this subject...except to craig, no credit goes to craig whatsoever |
