Had this sitting on my harddrive, thought I would upload it. Maybe someone can use it?

Maybe I'm misunderstanding what you're doing but isn't it a lot simpler?

Your code is changing the hue and lightness. At 50% health the color value returned is FF807F00. Now compared to my 50% color value of FFFFFF00, you can see only the hue is changing. Before this I used your method, but wasn’t happy with the intensity change.

There are minor differences, but for a healthBar I would be happy with your function. If you have actually looked at my code, you see it uses a function to convert a HSL color to RGB. This function is designed to use the same values as the Windows color dialog.

Nice job.

Nice job WickedX. Looking at the cool pic, it makes one wish that you could use the WASD keys and mouse to take a tour.

So many games to code.....so little time.

Thanks you, LBFN.

As you probably know from my download on this thread, I have that too, minus the healthbar. It uses collision detection, lightmapping and shaders.

Ah yes, I remember that one. I thought it looked familiar.
