Fixing Strider sprite
 

Hey,
did you ever notice the gfx errors of the Strider main character?
They appear while going up and down on slopes.

I think the character isn´t cut out properly and I´d like to see it fixed. :p

Could a coder out there take pity and do me this favor?
Thank you very much in advance. :)

Sure this isn't emulation related? Same problem on a real amiga?

Nope and yes. ;)

I checked my original copy and the WHDload release.
Just try it...It looks so shitty, especially in motion.

*bump*

Bumpy Bump! ;)

I´m still searching for someone who can decompress and fix the player sprite.
Please help...would be awesome! :great

Maybe its just clipping another Sprite

What are the dimensions of the main Sprite?

Sorry, no idea. :(

Maybe you could check the files of the attached disk version?
I´m not sure which file contains the main sprite...

Thanks Boo Boo. :spin

The Attached file is labeled wrong ;) I know because I was caught out when I downloaded from planetemu its Strider II

Strider II the graphics are just 320*200 but Strider 1 I dont know have to ask someone who's good with GFX rip

Then figuring out the packer........

But if its clipping another sprite Id but this down to codding error have to look at the sprite sheet first.

Okay, thanks a lot for your info. :)
Please let me know if you have any news.

*bump* :)

Any news?!

I´m sure someone can fix it.
Maybe the Atari ST sprite can be used?

Ripped sprites
 

The graphics look fine in memory, so the code is most likely to blame. The black pixel doesn't appear in memory.

Thanks for the info, Codetapper.
So I guess fixing the black pixel bug is almost impossible?!

Fixing Strider sprite
 

No. But code related....

... what did you expect from a shitty porting?XD

Okay, I have to dig out this old thread.

Please check out this video: https://youtu.be/WapNIt_mg0Q?list=WL&t=262

You can clearly see the black dot.
WHDload fix, pretty please?! :D

I've got where the problem lie but a pain to solve.. (long and boring task).
Damn Tiertex and his "st emulation" code :rolleyes.

ST emulation code ? ahahah. Reminds me the C64 emulation code for Barbarian Palace on Amstrad CPC. Same kind of shit.

It would be funny if it wasn't so tragic :D

All graphic data are converted from ST format in real time by the CPU (and the masks are generated) and then blitter is used to draw on screen.
A real good use of Amiga's capabilities..

LOL. Are you amazed ? they have burried the ST code and the ST files inside an MFM encoding. But yes, the Amiga version use the very same files as the ST version LOL.
