i dont kno if any1 answered u yet, but there is a way to make cheep graphics. look at the setpalette function in the help. basically, u set the numbers 0-15 to a 64 bit color (0-63) and each 64 bit color is different
this code can show u all the colors, its pretty simple. anyways, after u have set the colors, use a 2-d integer. for example, soda[50][100], this is an integer that is 50 down and 100 accros. now, do
soda[50][100]={
0,1,2,0,0,2,0,0,3,...
};
and that will set the value of all of that integer (u must have all spaces filled for it to work correctly) and then say,
for(int i=o;i<100;i++){
for(int j=0;j<50;j++){
if(soda[j][i]==1){putpixel(i+100,j+100,COLOR1);}
/*COLOR1 is just an example, the vallue of COLOR1 would be set by the setpalette function*/
}
}
if thats 2 confusing, tell me what part u have troubles on!
email me at tylermailonly@hotmail.com (its the best way to contact me)
good luck!
