SRL Archive - OSR Help

I want to make a procedure/function that I can use in almost every situation that can be used for walking, and more specificly using the minimap.

Ideas that I've had:

• Use DTMs (probably a must)
• Minimap symbols (I have read they move to much)
• Area specific markers (like a cactus by Al-Kharid?)
1. Specify city maybe?
2. Cut city into fourths?

I need help on ideas… I think area specific markers would work, but I need a way to tell where they are…

Try get the area where you are, try and get the playing music. It differs per Area.
Dynamic Dtm's and symols are also good ways :)

Is dynamic dtm a band or something?


Anyway, they aren't talking about music. DTM in this case stands for "deformable template model" and is a way to find items and symbols on the screen using a combination of points and their relation to a central point.

He meant how can you detect the music has changed in game, you know how different locations have different music?

Oh oops. I didn't read nielsie's post close enough. Just saw dtm and went on to see what the next person said. :duh:

Thanks for the input.

Ummm from what I have read u can tell what music's playing by looking in the music book tab :p it tells you what song is playing also I lol'd when you said are Dynamic DTM's a band. No they're not :D they're DTM's that are kind of made on the fly….bit hard to explain Read Fawki's TUT on DDTM's in advanced section

Yes, they aren't a band :p. Just open the music-tab and walk around, you'll see the music changing whenever you go out an area :).

First post with helper bear :D.
