Suddenly my program stopped working and DSLUA collapsing in after some seconds Dualis
After a long painful troubleshooting of this sneaky bug it seems the source of the problem is that i was using too many palettes for the game sprites. It looks like the system is only able to:

a) use 16 palettes
b) palette id should be 0-15

Is this correct? Is this a limitation of DSLUA or the DS system? what can i do if i need more palettes?

waruwaru, how do you write dslua? with palib or ndslib?
i dont think its a limit of the hardware, i think its a limit of palib(if you use it).
the videomemory is 512kb big and a sprite is SMALL and of course the palettes too.

There is a simple way around the 16 sprite problem. Take any of them that are the same size and put them in one bitmap. Put one on top of the other. Then when you use the LoadBin function, tell it at the end how many are in one. Every one will be given its own little frame number, so try this:

when you've got the frame set and loaded:

Frame1 = Sprite.Create( FRAMENAME, 0, PALETTE_NAME, X, Y )
Frame2 = Sprite.Create( FRAMENAME, 1, PALETTE_NAME, X, Y )

Note the number (the 0 and the 1 in the example) are the number of the frame. The top one uses 0, next frame down uses 1, next one uses 2, etc. There are many combinations that you can make, as long as the images you are putting together are the same size. I haven't found a limit yet, but there may be one.
