Hi everyone!
I try to make a small project with the stef's devkit, but i have a small problem with sprites.

When i try to draw more than one sprite, only the first is drawed.

I use VDP_setSpriteP to init sprite, like this :

VDP_setSpriteP(0,24,64,SPRITE_SIZE(4,4), 0, 0);
VDP_setSpriteP(1,64,64,SPRITE_SIZE(4,4), 0, 1);
VDP_setSpriteP(2,128,64,SPRITE_SIZE(4,4), 0, 2);

But only one sprite appairs one the screen.

How can i draw 3 sprites correctly?

Thanks in advance!

I don't know for sure, but I'm guess you should provide correct link values (last parameter of the function). Link value defines which sprite goes next in the sprite list, 0 means end of the sprite list. So, in your case the link parameters in these three function calls should be 1,2,0.

That's work!!!!

Thanks a lot for this quick reply!
Now, I can try to draw layers.. Humm

Many thks again!

Up, one year after... ^^

I'm sorry but i would like to draw some sprites in different order.

Actually, i just want to manage drawing prority of sprites as in Crusader of Centy ( for exemple ^^ ) :



I tried but when link properties aren't in order like ( 3;2;1;0 ), nothing appears.

With Gendev kit is it possible to do that?

Sprites priority is handle by the sprite link field. Last draw sprite has the highest priority. It should work in GenDev, don't forget that a link of 0 mean the end of the list, also the list can't be more than 80 sprites (VDP stop parse after that).

For instance you can do :
that means sprite will be draw in this order :
0, 5, 8, 2, 4, 3, 7, 1 end
with sprite 1 being the last drawn sprite so over all others...
