GP32 palette stuff...

[RTj]

Hi!
I've just started coding on the GP32 so i'm a newbie at this coding lark.
Graphics is more my department.

Anyway... my questions are thus:
1/ How do i go about giving the user a palette of colours to choose from?
2/ The colour they choose would be put into colour 0 (thus altering the colour of the sprite under their control). How the hell do i do that??? :huh:
3/ Is there a list of GP32 commands and how to use them? I have the API PDF document but there seems to be tons of commands missing from it! I'm seeing people using commands not mentioned in the API document i have...

Any help would be greatly appreciated guys!
(oh! and gals! Sorry! )

Cheers!
Ronnie

There is an API referefence 2.1.5 with a few more commands in, but it has a worse layout than the original document and possibly even worse translation.

I've been searching for it and can't find a link anywhere!

I hate the stupid API reference.

I'm working on tutorial parts 2 and 3 right now - they will summary how to do most of the stuff you need to do.

Here is the 2.1.x version with rough English translation.

thanks for the replies folks...

Hell the API doc i have doesnt even mention the SetMode commands to get me into 16bit mode.

But i've downloaded that 2.1.5 version. Thanks StudioX64 for that link.

I reckon i'm doing quite well for an amateur but i've still got a long way to go.
I still don't understand using other peoples libraries yet... they'd come in handy if i knew how to use 'em!
Looking at the code within the .h files just seems like gibberish to me... :huh:

Anyway... thanks again guys!
