[Minecraft] [HP Prime] MinePrime - Minecraft on a Hp Prime!

It's just so confusing. It's touchscreen? It's not touchscreen? Make up your mind, HP!
And how exactly do you do a file transfer??

You can control the program and app launcher, along with the home screen without the touchscreen

Just made an updated tutorial

I think what would be cool is if you also made a text tutorial with screenshots in a forum post in a new topic. It could definitively be stickied

alexgt · May 23, 2016, 11:37:38 AM

Sure thing

. And have you had any luck with uploading Apps btw?

Dream of Omnimaga · May 23, 2016, 08:10:36 PM

Do you mean creating my own apps or just installing them? I could install them fine after a few tries and a reboot but I didn't figure out how to actually create them.

I was talking about installing them, which it looks like you just have to edit the apps program code a little with a comment and then it will save 100% of the time.

But I should make a tutorial on how to make apps also. It is the same as a program but you just save (or make a copy of an app) and then you edit the source code and change the EXPORT AppName() to EXPORT START() or START() and just program it is usual. I will still make a tutorial if I have time

.

UPDATE:
So I am working with camera movement so you can scroll around the world but I am working out a bug that when the world scrolls left the screen flickers, I found the cause (something is displaying the GROB 16 pixels over for one frame every 16 frames but I don't know the exact command that does so

).

Other than that everything seems to be working smoothly

Glad to see new progress

alexgt · May 24, 2016, 07:22:12 PM

Thanks

. I don't think I will have collision implemented by the end of the month though

. But that should be relatively easy to implement (famous last words

)

Dream of Omnimaga · May 24, 2016, 09:23:22 PM

If you have any issue with implementing collision detection, then you could maybe post your code in a separate HP PPL topic if you need any help

alexgt · May 25, 2016, 03:08:23 AM

Yeah, that should not be a problem hopefully since the pixel placement mechanics are perfect for my application

. Though displaying the world with a 352x272 GROB isn't working like I would have hoped

. But don't worry I won't chicken out and make a 16000x10000 GROB

.

Dream of Omnimaga · May 25, 2016, 04:22:54 AM

Or worse, imagine if you went the cheap route of using two GROB's (one with the real game sprites and another with just black and white that is used for collision detection) like I did with Supersonic Ball on the 84+

As for the 352x272 GROB good luck. This seems like the ideal way to do it IMHO, but it can be difficult to figure out which side you need to redraw

(you can always redraw all sides every frame but still)

alexgt · May 25, 2016, 11:41:29 AM

Yeah, I could draw all sides but that isn't the problem, I know what is causing it but I can't seem to find out how to fix it xD

Dream of Omnimaga · May 26, 2016, 03:02:04 AM

What is causing it? Also I wonder if there should be a separate map engine made available even if MinePrime isn't released, as some sort of lib or template, released in CW archives? That could be handy for people who wants to develop platformers or something quickly.

I can do that

. I am not exactly sure but I think I have narrowed it down it the bug is almost crushed.

I also added world loading
