8-bits change-color blitter
Author
Hey! i need help with an old trick, i´am working on a RTS game like Age of Empires but i need help to perform the change of color of the units to the player common color (blue, red, etc) in a razonable process time (when i print 30 units my machine DIE).
I´am working with 8-bits and a simple palette with DirectDraw
HELP, WHAT CAN I DO?
Change the color once in a copy of the unit's frame and save it for later use. Sounds like you are looping through the pixels of each unit animation each frame, changing the colors.
