still some warnings, but it works... finally...
Code:
/*
* BASIC DYNAMIC PLASMA
* --------------------
*
* + precalculated cosine table
* + 16bit graphic mode
* + enabled 16bit TextOut (thx to Charge an the almighty Mr. Spiv)
*
* [intro]
* You all have seen it many times, but many people
* still ask themselvs "How does that friggin plasma work
* at all?" Please excuse my bad english, but I will try
* to explain the classic to you on the GP32.
*
* [theory]
* We will do some dynamic plasma, not a static one because
* that is just some clever palatte cycling, but we will
* work in 16bit anyway.
* We have to calculate cosine, because we need some nice
* curves, but cosine is rather slow for realtime so we
* have to pre-calculate it in a table. I use
* 1220 * (cos(i * M_PI / 64)) as my formula, because
* 1220 sets some nice colors and 64 a good size of the "blops"
*
* So we calculate a 256 long cosine table:
*
* int cosinus[256];
* for (i=0; i<256; i++)
* cosinus[i] = 1220 * (cos(i * M_PI / 64));
*
* What do we need the cosine for? We want to draw some
* nice cruves, so we need two cosine for vertical and
* horizontal movement. You have to define p1, p2, p3, p4
* for the movement and t1, t2, t3, t4 to store the original
* cosine as undefined chars, because they will be the index
* for the cosine table.
*
* Now to the main function. p1 and p2 are for the vertical
* and p3, p4 for the horizontal movement and the t1,t2,t3,t4
* are the temp var of the p's.
*
* Store p1,p2 before you enter the loop for the y-axis, the
* same for p3,p4 and the x-axis.
*
* t1 = p1;
* t2 = p2;
* for (i = 0; i < y-lenght; i++)
* t3 = p3;
* t4 = p4;
* for (j = 0; j < x-length; j++)
*
* Y-lenght and x-lenght are the size of the tile we draw
* over the screen, I use 128px as tile size.
* No we put the cosine into the loops. We have to
* calculate every color of every pixel including each
* movement.
*
* color[y][x] = cosinus[t1] + cosinus[t2]
* + cosinus[t3] + cosinus[t4]
*
* Now you can blit the color array on the screen. After
* each loop you have to change t3,t4 in the x loop
* and then t1,t2 in the y loop. After both loops change
* p1,p2,p3,p4 to achieve any kind of movement you want!
* That's it!
*
* [outro]
* I hope you understood at least a bit and this tuto is
* in anyway useful to you. In the following code the
* plasma has been optimized by me, but is far from perfect.
* Feel free to fool around with the code and formula to
* get some nice effects (there is more than cosine ).
* The is also a fps counter, so can check if your
* optimaziations really speed up the plasma.
*
* If you have any problems, questions or c/C then try
* to cantact me (or the other guys and gals) at #gp32dev
* or www.gp32x.de.
