Title: Grayscale Minesweeper
Post by: calc84maniac on March 24, 2007, 09:04:00 pm

I am working on a grayscale minesweeper game (well duh).

Current screenshot:


Current version attached.

Btw I am estimating 82 fps on an 84+SE! :w00t:

Attached? I see no attached file...

Great, a timer! Now we need the number of mines that are unknown.

Wow! Nice game.  :king: And yeah, you need to attach the file.  :P

how do you make it so that when click on an empty space with no bombs around it, it hits every empty space that it is adjacent to it, then hits all spaces adjacent to all the spaces that are empty and so on. aka when you hit one spot and multiple spots are uncovered (if you were confused by m description). i tried making a minesweeper in basic but that part of the game never worked with any speed, yours seems to go lightening fast, is there some way you could explain the alg you used? or is it just one of those asm>basic times?


btw the game looks really cool, i like the timer's font especially.

Sorry, file is attached now. And I used a recursive algorithm, pretty much it uncovers the 8 around it and when it hits a space it saves the current position and calls the routine for the space you hit.

82 FPS!!!! That's crazy dude! How do you calculate FPS? Like what kind of an Assembly routine do you use?

Post by: calc84maniac on March 25, 2007, 03:22:00 pm

I tweaked the number of times it had to go through the loop before updating the timer until it was synchronized with my watch, and it ended up as 82 times.

Is this in Assembly or Basic? I'm just wondering.

Title: Grayscale Minesweeper
Post by: calc84maniac on March 26, 2007, 04:12:00 am

Uh, this is definitely is asm.  :)

Title: Grayscale Minesweeper
Post by: dinhotheone on March 26, 2007, 07:45:00 am

i dont think you could even get a blank loop to run at 82fps in basic.

you can't lol

Not to pry, but are you interested in helping me with DK?  It's a really daunting task, and the extra help would be much appreciated.
Anyways, minesweeper looks frikin awesome, nice work! :king:

*bump*

Now I added the ability to enter in your initials when you get a high score, and I added smooth mouse scrolling!

=o absolutely beautiful work ^_^ 82 fps? amazing! I'll definately download this when i get to my house.

very nice I love how you are putting grayscale spins on the old favorites and actually making it great. Good job!

Cool!  

*bfr deletes the old beta and downloads the new one

EDIT:  Very good!  Just one problem though - I don't know what exactly I did, but somehow, when I would select a certain square, the one next to it would get selected.  The first time this happenned, the square below the arrow would get selected, and the next time, the square to the left would get selected.

New title screen!



And bfr, I will try to reproduce that bug.

Grayscale Minesweeper 1 has now been added to ticalc's queue! :D There are 184 files in the queue now though, so it may be a while before you see it. :(

Cross you fingers for a featured program and maybe a POTY!

Title: Grayscale Minesweeper
Post by: Halifax on April 18, 2007, 11:35:00 am

I think it should be guarenteed featured and if not I will suggest it but I don't think it will be POTY due to the big hitters that might be releasing this year. Zelda, Super Smash Bros., Metroid, The Massacre(shameless plug).

 Well, let's put it this way:
Spencer's Zelda- Well, he and Jim e said that they need to finish their emulator before more progress on Zelda can be made, and that might take some time
Super Smash Bros- We rarely see any new updates in SSB these days, but maybe during the summer tr1p will have more time to work on it.
Metroid- If you are talking about the assembly one, it probably never will be released, except if one of the MaxCoderz staff suddenly decides to pick up the source and work on it. If you are talking about CDI's, come on, he announced the development of it in February, it probably will take more than 2/3 of a year to finish.
The Massacre- *Delnar_Ersike

I spoke with CDI a while back, he said he was going to get started working on that again when something happens (not sure what, but it was a good excuse).

One thing calc84maniac hasn't pointed out, which i think he should point out because its frikin' amazing, is that this was made in on-calc ASM :)

Title: Grayscale Minesweeper
Post by: graywolf on April 19, 2007, 11:03:00 am

Wow! That's intense.

Title: Grayscale Minesweeper
Post by: bfr on April 19, 2007, 12:51:00 pm

And he used his own on-calc assembler that he made (I think), which adds to the awesomeness.  :)

Title: Grayscale Minesweeper
Post by: calc84maniac on April 20, 2007, 01:15:00 am

Yes, I made it. :) But I had to mod it extensively to get it to assemble a program as big as Minesweeper. :P It takes over 15 minutes to assemble...

Hehe, time for me to vote for it, too *dusts off hands*! :P

Title: Grayscale Minesweeper
Post by: dinhotheone on May 09, 2007, 02:46:00 pm

idk, it still says 8.9/10 and 4 votes even after i voted....
edit:also, you guys are forgetting AOC2 for poty, i hope anyway, i cant remember if he gave an estimated time of realease but he says hes working on it again.

Title: Grayscale Minesweeper
Post by: calc84maniac on May 09, 2007, 03:59:00 pm

It doesn't get updated instantly...

Title: Grayscale Minesweeper
Post by: dinhotheone on May 10, 2007, 09:56:00 am

ahh, i see, didnt know that.

edit do avoid doble post

found a bug, if you hold y= and press a direction, then the picture wont move but the handle will so if you press right while holding y= then when you press enter you will uncover the spot to the right of the cursor.
btw this is bfr's bug

It's tied with MOS!!!

WOW! Good job!  :king:

Title: Grayscale Minesweeper

I don't get weighted average. How does GM only get 23 votes while MOS gets 245 and they are equal???????

Because it's the http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Average. :P
