if anyone knows how to solve it Please tell me. Thanks for your understanding

 

Like I said to you in a PM conservation a while before, you went out of 80 sprite limit, that's why a huge part of sprite isn't displayed in game.


Look at "Pieces" label on your SonMapEd's screen. It says "Pieces: 7A", which is 122 in decimal. This means you have already used 122 sprites (called "pieces" in SonMapEd), but the limit is 80. So, lots of sprites got cut.


As I noticed, your Sonic tiles arranged for Plane Mappings, which makes doing mappings ("sprites") in SonMapEd hard and unwise. To optimize your "sprites" you have to rearrange your tiles, so you could make good big "pieces" with them. This is the only way to fit the sprite limit, but it's a long and hard work. Or maybe you could solve it by importing your sprites from the image instead of building them manually. But I have never used SonMapEd's sprite importing/exporting feature (I always build sprites manually, often in ASM), I don't know how to do it or if it works.

 

I think it's a problem related to the sprite coordinates, try moving the sprite lower in sonmaped and modify the coordinates of the object accordingly.

 

I've tried Before, it worked but no.


thanks anyway.

 

I strongly recommend re-arranging the art tiles to fit the VDP's sprite capabilities, most of that image can be presented by 4x4 tiles on one sprite, you'll need to take advantage of that in order to present that entire image on screen, without breaching the limit or causing an overflow.

 

Is it a problem with only one frame or are all your frames cut?

 

here is the rom of my hack if you want to see the problem

Your problum is that every 8x8 tile is a sprite.You relay do NOT want to do that instead make a bunch of 4x4 (32x32 pixel) sprites.


There is a great guide on using sonmaped here:

thanks, I've solved the problem, thanks to all who tried to help
