Very fast floodfill
erico:
Nice it works fine. :good:
There was a discussion about alpha sometime ago based on Ian Price´s game "Aquaventure" (go play it, it is wonderful!).
We all gave a go on sorting the alpha thing, it was really a nightmare.
I wonder if your solution could eventually be used on that case and it is fast enough to keep the game up at good speed.
The thread is here:

Makes for a good reading...except for the part I said my game is almost done :-[ I added a lot of stuff to it after that and more then 6 months later I´m still on the same stage! (but the added stuff looks great at least :P)
erico:
About your sprite editor, it would wonderful if it also works on the likes of android or even a caanoo.
Since I got a note II I have been looking for productive tools on this front and alas there are none good enough... :(
Grafx2 may work ok but it is really hard to make it work and it dosen´t read the wacom pen on note II on a fine way, so it is actually useless.
I found a few sound/music programs that are more or less ok.
But I can state that android lacks productive tools to the point that if I had time I would code my own tools.
People may not work on phones, but the note II or bigger tablets are well capable to handle fine art and music for retro games.
Heck, when I´m travelling, time would be well spent drawing game assets on them. :(
I can do some of that stuff on my caanoo that the note II can´t handle at all.
I dream of a pixel sprite editor capable of handling animations and onion skin, it would be a dream come true if such appears on mobiles and tablets.
The best tool so far I found for it is Dr. Pepper´s "Cherry Brush"

Post a peep on your sprite editor when you can, I would like to see it.
Cheers.

Thanks for bringing my attention back to this routine of mine as I accidentally overwrote my newer version with an older one when I changed computers (along with a few others as well :D ). Luckily nothing of great importance was lost as most where just experiments & proof of concept type things.
The way I done a pattern fill from what I recall was just SPRITE2MEM the pattern to use as the fill & a little bit of maths to convert the current fill position to the appropriate array position of the pattern, taking into account pattern size & repeating obviously.
When I have finished my current item I will revisit this routine & try to remember how I done it last time. Also started work on gradient fills on the lost version, but only got as far as RGB to HSV conversion with a straight up linear fill I think (angles & radial type etc was the next stage).
Because I have not had a need for a fill routine for quite some time I mainly the reason I forgot all about it :whip:
Glad you found a solution that works well in your Sprite Ed Brick :good:

Ok Erico, here you go - a sneek peek at my editor. The leen eyed will notice no save/load/animate etc icons. Thats because i click the tab under the paintbox from 1 to 2 to display the other icons/options.
Brick Redux:
In the paintbox Ive selected what I call DOT. You can also see all the nibs / stamps / brushes or what ever you want to call them :) I added all of them with speed in mind when designing an image - saves messing around having to creating such a thing and then copy it as a brush.
I like GraFX but find the icons along the bottom annoying at times - my younger self still screams at this when reflecting upon DPaint :).
