[Request / Listing] GM6 Views Help

So I have this code for my Zelda game that lets me have multiple "rooms" in one big room.  It works great but there is one problem, whenever I got to a "room" that is not the one that Link was created in the screen shakes uncontrollably.  In obj_normal_link's create event I have this:

view_xview[0] = floor(obj_normal_link.x/view_wview[0])*view_wview[0]
view_yview[0] = floor(obj_normal_link.y/view_hview[0])*view_hview[0]
Wx = view_xview[0]
Wy = view_yview[0]

aAd in his step event I have this:

Wx = floor(obj_normal_link.x/view_wview[0])*view_wview[0]
Wy = floor(obj_normal_link.y/view_hview[0])*view_hview[0]
view_xview[0] -= sign(view_xview[0]-Wx)*view_wview[0]/20
view_yview[0] -= sign(view_yview[0]-Wy)*view_hview[0]/20


Any help would be great!

Thanks,

That is very odd...When I put that script in my link walking engine, it worked beautifully...Could you post your engine, or no?

Re: GM6 Views Help

This is your lucky day. I just took a wild guess at it, and it works, and it shows why your code already worked for Streblo.

Your view dimensions are multiples of 16. The scrolling code (which is very innovative btw, I can't quite figure it out) uses some kind of 20ths. I'm thinking that it somehow made the view scroll too far, and then because it scrolls based on Link's x and the current view_xview, it starts to scroll back and forth because it thinks it should. I don't know, I can't explain what's happening.

view_xview[0] -= sign(view_xview[0]-Wx)*view_wview[0]/20
view_yview[0] -= sign(view_yview[0]-Wy)*view_hview[0]/20

But if you change the 20 to 16 on both lines, it seems to work fine.

BTW, the collision with the rocks is a little off, because you went with your own sprites with a different origin than the ones supplied in my movement engine, but the object mask (sprLinkShadow) still uses my origin, and it's too high on your sprites. Try changing its y origin to -14.

And I thought of something else you may or may not want, and that is stopping Link from moving while the screen is scrolling.

In the Step event, right before my movement script, put this:

Code: [Select]

global.scrolling = frac(view_xview[1]/view_wview[1])!=0 || frac(view_yview[1]/view_hview[1])!=0That makes a variable (global.scrolling) that is true if either view_xview[1] is not a multiple of view_wview[1], or view_yview[1] is not a multiple of view_hview[1]. In other words, it's true when you're scrolling, false when you're not.

Then in the movement script, there's a line that says this:

Code: [Select]

if holdd ||holdu || holdl || holdr {Just change it to:

Code: [Select]

if (holdd ||holdu || holdl || holdr) && !global.scrolling {[/code}

Re: GM6 Views Help

I think the problem may be much simpler, I made the view follow link, and the screen shook uncontrollably, if you made the view follow nothing, it would work.
