There’s noticeably a bundle to learn about this. I assume you made certain good factors in features also.

Hi, first of all thanks for your great tutorial!
I know my question isn’t quite referred to scrolling with zoom using tilemap but I’m trying to achieve the same thing without a tilemap (I’m not sure if it can be done using a tilemap).

I’m trying to implement a parallax effect; at first I’ve tried with different CCLayers but no clue how to manage that… at the end I’ve decided to add them as sprites into my layer.
So my question sounds something like this: Have you (Johnny or somebody else) ever met this situation ? [ Implementing a parallax effect with scroll and zoom ]

Can point me to the right direction, I’d really appreciate that!

Hi, this one is helpful(at least a start), but can you please tell that how can I track the sprites changed location after zoom out, (I’ not using tile map) and zooming out with the help of camera(by increasing eyeZ).

Hi,
Thanks, this works great.

I now would like to rotate the tilemap around the center of the screen but I can’t get this to work.
Rotation of the layer itself works fine but how can I adjust the centerpoint for the rotation?

Hi, thanks for your reply. I didn’t notice that the “<” was a bad rendered html character. I copy and paste the lines and din’t see that “<” is a “less than”.

Thaks anyway!

Those two lines should be:

if(point.x < centerPoint.x)
viewPoint.x = 0;
if(point.y < centerPoint.y)
viewPoint.y = 0;

They stop the scrolling action when your character reachers the bottom left side of the screen, since you don’t want to show area outside the map.

Hi:

I’ve been reading this and I am trying to figure out how to work with it.

Can somebody help me to understand how does this if work?

if(point.x < centerPoint.x)
viewPoint.x = 0;
if(point.y < centerPoint.y)
viewPoint.y = 0;

I don’t get what are they asking :S

Thanks for any help you can give me!
