please how do I put a sprite on the screen?!

type 'spset' and then press the tutorial button (you know where that is right?)

yes thank you

what about sound?

that's easy. BEEP <insert sound number here> get sound numbers from the BEEP menu in the smile tool. (button with smiley face) for background music, do BGMPLAY <insert track number here> get background music from the smile tool also.

I made my own sprite it didnt work and heres what happened what did I do wrong?

heres the code

show code please.

I did (last post after this)

Take out the x and y like this SPSET 0,0,0 also you have to save your sprite give the save a name and type this in your code LOAD"GRP4:"FILENAME",FALSE after that put the rest of your code ;)

nate, you overcomplicated it. You only need to do spset 0,0,0. saving is a different matter. you need to save your program or else it's gone once you close the app or open another program. (saving programs is super easy just click the save button)

actually nate litterly gave me all the info um nate when I have a question can I ask you? and thank you phiLip i put a capital L because I know theres no 2 L philip :D

were do I find the numbers because all I see is 0, 0(x16) thats the sprite I wan't to show

it did'nt work

my file name was smile1 did I do it right?

open the smile button and click SPDEF, there's a number for each sprite on the default spritesheet.

code

nate's saving sprite information was only for making your own sprites, sorry for the misnomer in his comment.

All you want to do is show your sprites on the screen to make a game, right?

I know I made my own sprite but it wont show should I stick with these sprites for a bit then when I get a little more advance show my own sprites?

wait nvm now it did but why didnt my smile thingy didn't load?

I did make a smile face sprite zooming in the most but as shown here id didn't work :(

Sure just use those sprites for now, i had a hard time loading my first custom sprite to ;)

did you save your sprite? you need to draw it in the upper left then save the spritesheet so that you can use it later. then you need to write LOAD "GRP4:NAME",FALSE replace name with the filename you saved the spritesheet to. the false isn't needed, but makes it so that it doesn't ask you every time you run the program to load the file.

yep thats all I want i mean not to make a game because I aint the best XD but it be nice to know! :D

yea, like nate says custom sprites are hard. i don't use them much anyways except for logos.

wait ok so philip you put only one of these " for the file name while nate put "name" and philip you only put one of these " so witch one is right?

oh well i think im done XD thanks for the help! Cough *anyway to remove the ok?* cough

Custom sprites are hard? THATS HALARIOUS! ...or it just might be that im good at pixel art but its hard for other people.

i'm right. it's LOAD "GRP4:FILENAME" because it all needs to be in the same string

Philip did it right! I messed up ;)

to remove the ok do Load "grp4:FILENAME",false

aww man! let me try again then! also I did it I removed the ok! I made a sprite and I-I removed the ok thank you guys! :') im litterly crying! oh and hi pika ryan you still working on pac man? :D

no pika its that im new I just made a basic smiley face :D

Yeah me and pika are working on it just have forgot to make a discussion for it :0

I did locate it didnt move just the ok witch there is none anymore

Do you wont your sprite to move somewhere else on the screen?

not like if you press x it moves but like yeah move to somewere els also how do I save?

please I want to save my project to a file

Use this code to make your sprite move somewhere else SPSET 0,0,0 SPOFS 0,60,120 to save go in to direct mode and type SAVE "NAME" and that will be put in whatever is your active progect folder

like this? because it did'nt work do I have to change the name to the active folder?

._.

You save it in direct mode not edit mode

Show me the code for the spofs

l wow... l l_________________l ._./

I did do it in edit mode

I know but you save it in direct mode

...

My best friend calls his sister Duckymomo.

um... ok...

The spofs comes in the line after the the spset and delete the save "fruit" and type that in direct mode ;)

like this?

or this

Yes :P

witch one? XD 1 or 2

the 2nd one ;) then press enter on the touch screen and it should work :D

what?! WORK! i did ( save" "fruit") then press enter but it still doesnt work even in direct mode :'(

Not save" "Fruit" do, save "Fruit"

omg thxz

thanks everyone for all the help! now i saved it!

your welcome!

(last post) heres the key to my first game!

Yay! I'mma download it. My first shared program was called HAM (Catch those friggin' hams!), and since I had already programmed things on the computer, it was slightly high-quality.
