So I've been working pretty much straight from 5 am or so, with a break to go to a class.
I have up the code that loads a bitmap into a room. I wanted to get some display code going also, but I got stuck on a stupid problem because the MS BMP format is one of the stupidest formats ever.
Essentially, I had to deal with the pain in the ass of wanting to get bit data from byte sized chunks (no pun intended). I figured out an OK way, but it wasn't until I opened up the BMPs in a hex editor that I realized that they made sure to fill up the extra space in non 32 length rows with extra zeroes.
On the bright side I have something, but it's really not much. I don't have any sets due this weekend, so perhaps I'll put in some real time on this.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
