Your map is most likely much bigger then the screen so there is no point to repaint all the tiles. even if your repaint will take more than the timer interval still this will be much much faster then your current approach. inside timer event handler call your repaint only if _redraw=true and set it to false afterwards.

So on any action like player movement, camera movement or turn, animation change set it to true

So how to remedy that?Īnd use it to redraw only when you need to repaint screen. That usually causes massive slowdowns due to synchronisation problems so the resulting fps is usually even smaller then the rendering engine could provide. To have more fps then the refresh rate of your monitor is pointless (many fps players would oppose but our perception is what it is no matter what they say).Īnyway if your rendering took more then 1ms (which is more then likely) then your timer is screwed because it should be firing several times before the first handler even stops. The only reason for higher fps needs is to be synchronized with your monitor refreshing to avoid scan line artifacts (even LCD use scan lines refreshing). Human vision can't detect it anyway so there is no point in repainting more that 25-40 fps.

Repainting every 1ms is insane and most likely impossible on nowadays computers if you got medium complexity of the scene. To achieve player centered or follow views you have to move the camera too. So here's just a simple summary of how to do this task:įrom functional point of view does not matter if player moves or the map but from performance point of view the number of tiles is hugely bigger then number of players so moving player is faster. Label1.Text = lastFrameRate.ToString() // for fps rate showĬalculateFrameRate() // for fps rate showĪs mentioned in the comments your concept is wrong. If(player.Update()=true) // true keydown event is fired This is the Timer with a specific interval : private void UpdateTimer_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e) Grap.DrawImage(enemyGoblin.movingObjectImage, enemyGoblin.xPos, enemyGoblin.yPos, 50, 50) Grap.DrawImage(player.movingObjectImage, player.xPos, player.yPos, 50, 50) Grap.DrawImage(tileArray.tileImage, j * 50, i * 50, 50, 50) Using (Graphics grap = Graphics.FromImage(bmp)) Here I redraw each 1ms or higher the tiles and sprites : private void Wereld_Paint_1(object sender, PaintEventArgs e) This is how I make the map : public void makeBoard()įor (int i = 0 i < tileArray.GetLength(0) i++)įor (int j = 0 j < tileArray.GetLength(1) j++) But I can't figure out how to fix this problem. The reason that it is running too slow is because every 1ms with a timer, the tiles are being redrawn. I tried everything now and the result is that I get 30 fps.

I ask this question because I already have created the '2d tile map' but it is running too slow, and I can't fix it. I'm currently creating a 2d tile game and I'm wondering if the tiles has to move or the character.
