Layers(and another question)

[Öhr GmbH]

How do i set the layer for each picture(tilemap/sprite) and BGBit8Top:Plot()/Line()?
BGBit8Top:Plot() is always under the pictures, but i want it above


i have a picture. its 256x147px.
if i load it, its totally messed up. why? i think its because of the x px tiles:
BGBottomMap:LoadMap( "image.map", ( 256 / 8 ), ( 147 / 8 ) )
how can i fix it, without changing the picturesize?



P.S. you should change the description of this forum into "If you need help getting your own script running, post here!"

Try changing the parameter order in your Screen.Initialize() function call.

147 is not divisible by 8.  I am guessing gfx2gba added some extra lines for you in order to give you the proper tiles/map.  Try

BGBottomMap:LoadMap( "image.map", ( 256 / 8 ), ( 144 / 8 ) )
 or
BGBottomMap:LoadMap( "image.map", ( 256 / 8 ), ( 152 / 8 ) )

And see if they work better.

DSLua 0.5 doesn't have a stop method for Sound.  I didn't expect people playing long sounds.  I would suggest you to switch over to mod file for background music if you can...  They should take less memories, and you can play/pause/stop.

Good luck,
