Almost There<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

last week, i got a little bit distracted by school stuff. But this will end very soon since i will come back home this week.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The main goal last week is continue testing and fixing warlock.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

So most of the time, i’ve been wandering in warlock to find the graphics issue. After locate a problem, i will try to reproduce that and check the original one in Basilisk. Then i will try to fix it. So the coding work may not that much.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Mostly, those are small behaviour problems and we need to amend it carefully to prevent regression.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

A good news is i finally managed to find the bit which controls scaling the bitmap castmember. And with that, i think i can deal with sprite dims very well now.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And other small issues such as palette resolving problem, offsets in BITD decoder, different fg and bg color for rendering test castmembers, and some version check problem.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

After fixing those issues, the rendering problem in warlock is mostly fixed. And we can finally managed play warlock from begining to the ending. lol!!!<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I’ve head for testing warlock-win yesterday. And surprisingly, i didn’t met any render problems so far.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

And i’ve also completed my very first task at the director, fix pathMakeRelative, and that also gives me the permission to testing warlock-nec. But saidly, the warlock-nec is a D4 game, which i didn’t handled too well now. But with the short time for testing that Japanese version, i found most of the rendering problem is just the different behaviour between D4 and the previous version. djsrv has implemented the japanese support for macfont, thus, i think fixing warlock-nec is not a hard problem.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

I’ve also implement scaling matte sprites. Since i’ve implement scaling bitmap castmember, so that task is really easy. But the effect it brings is really amazing. look this blood tear<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Today, i started fixing sound for warlock, remember i memtioned that i stubbed fplay last week. I’ve just implemented that with sev’s help. Even there are some small issues left, but the warlock-mac is not muted anymore. And i believe those problems will be solved very soon. So i think maybe in this week, we can bring a complete warlock-mac out.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

i will post some pic here \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

finally met with stella<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

looking forward to the complete warlock. See you next week.<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
