  Sprites blurring colors between frames

  I tried that and it still looked the same. I imagine the reason is the game is made for 1920x1080 while my monitor is 1440x900 so its probably blurring more than just a single row from the next frame. I want the game to work on multiple mobile resolutions so that is not really a solution to just keep trying until somethings works on my desktop screen.

  I also tried messing around with FlxAtlas and that still looked the same. Eventually I just gave up and now I am using multiple PNG files for each button frame. That is a lot more work but at least it doesn't look bad..

  this is not tested on html5 but tends to remove image artifacts by scaling the resolution slightly. perhaps it also fixes blurriness. FlxG.scaleMode = new RelativeScaleMode(0.99, 0.99);. this might also work. FlxG.camera.pixelPerfectRender = true;.

  Other than the default HaxeFlixel logo and boot sound, I don't think so.

  If you need to do placeholder stuff though, you could use makeGraphic(); where you would normally do loadGraphic(); in your FlxSprite to make a simple rectangle.

  And for sounds I like to use http://sfbgames.com/chiptone/ for some basic SFX

  No, that's currently not possible (without modifying flixel-tools sources).

  Hi!

  The reasons are many, you can check the open issues to see the details, as posted by @Agustín-Pérez-Fernández :

  There are a lot of issues open about this. I hope it gets fixed with the transition to openfl 5.

  I tried the fixes and everything to make it work on CPP. While it did, the screenshots looked bad, really bad

  While I haven't found an answer to this yet, I have found something that might be the solution when they finish it: https://twitter.com/as3gamegears/status/1030438524846268416

  Basically an editor for Haxeflixel, read the replies for a bit more info on what it might become.

  Cool thanks. Upgrading fixed it, other than giving me new fun issues with Neko I didn't have prior. That also doesn't really explain why it worked right up until it suddenly stopped working; it also doesn't really explain why now Neko has issues it did not before.

  Thanks to everyone on the forum for helping me.

  Unfortunately, I think I'm going to stop trying with this. I keep running into issues and can't tell if it's the IDE, not having installed something correctly despite receiving no errors when installing, or syntax errors. Syntax errors I can at least eventually puzzle out, but the other two are pretty exhausting, and every day has felt like I'm fighting to get anything done.

  I get there are growing pains with any new environment, but I'm just tired. I want to be spending the little time off I have actually making my game. You guys have some sweet documentation and when things work, it's a pretty sweet set of libraries.

  Drawing arbitrary pixels to FlxSprite

  stamp() seems to work quite well, in fact! For reference, I modified my code to look like:

  class PlayState extends FlxState { var canvas:FlxSprite; var totalTime:Int = 0; override public function create():Void { super.create(); canvas = new FlxSprite(); canvas.makeGraphic(128, 128, FlxColor.WHITE, true); add(canvas); } override public function update(elapsed:Float):Void { super.update(elapsed); totalTime += 1; var brush = new FlxSprite().makeGraphic(2, 2, 0xFFFF0000); canvas.stamp(brush, totalTime % 128, Std.int(totalTime / 128)); } }

  ...and it behaves as I expected.

  I think that the line totalTime += 1, despite being a terrible naming job on my part, allowed for the red line to cover the square quickly (as opposed to totalTime += elapsed).

  Is stamp() plus a brush an appropriate (efficient) solution even when drawing pixels based on user input, such as with a mouse click/drag or touchscreen? I think that I overlooked that function before because it seemed to be intended for copying entire sprites.

  Thank you so much for your quick and detailed response!

  I am glad i could help.

  here is something to remember. I am not sure if this applies to the newer version of haxeflixel, a class name such as Reg will not give an error but will not give the correct result either when written RegReg.variable. so be careful with that. took me weeks to find that bug. :)

  @nullstack oh! I check the source code on GitHub and found the solution, and....it works!!! the solution is:

  after the if(_up||_down||_left||_right) statement add this:

  else if(animation.curAnim!=null) { animation.curAnim.curFrame = 0; animation.curAnim.pause(); }

  Haxeflixel has a lot of really nice helper functions for things like this.
  https://api.haxeflixel.com/flixel/math/FlxVelocity.html#velocityFromAngle

  import flixel.math.FlxVelocity;
  ...
  var angle = 90;
  var speed = 1500;
  bullet.velocity = FlxVelocity.velocityFromAngle(angle, 1500);

  Why does my sprite loop keeps blinking every time loops

  @ttt said in Why does my sprite loop keeps blinking every time loops:

  loadGraphic(AssetPaths.player__png, true, 16, 16);
  setFacingFlip(FlxObject.LEFT, false, false);
  setFacingFlip(FlxObject.RIGHT, true, false);
  animation.add("d", [0, 1, 0, 2], 6, true);
  animation.play("d");

  Can you post the image you're using? It sounds like there's a problem with how you locate the frames of your sprite sheet.

  If you make it a 48x16 strip with each frame being 16x16, it should work. Like so:
  |0|1|2|

  Or, if you make the image 32x32 like this it should work too
  |0|1|
  |2| |
  where frame 3 is a blank area.

  If you have a blank area in your image it will show nothing for that frame of the animation and blink.
  |0|1|
  | |3|
  So, in this case frame 2 is a blank area and will show nothing when animation frame 2 is drawn.

  Thanks for the reply. I am using the Tiled map editor.
  I will do a bit more research and look at some of the demos a bit more.

  I had the same problem. My solution was to install Visual Studio 2017 at the default location. C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio
  As far as I understand it with Version 2017 Microsoft removed the PATH Variable that points to the location of Visual Studio. There was a fix to HXCPP but I think this needs Visual Studio to be installed at the default location

  My code will work but you have to copy all your pixels to a Bitmap object's bitmapData property. I neglected to implement that part of my Flash project in my OpenFL project.
