Okay I really can not figure out whats wrong here but my tiles are not smooth scrolling and I really cant figure this out. Anyone have anything similiar? I need some advice on what im missing. The screen keeps going back to the center after I scroll like one tile. Any ideas?

  1.  
  2. void DrawTileMap(ID3DXSprite &mapsprite,int tiledimx,int tiledimy,RECT &rect,CGRAPHICS *anobject)
  3. {
  4.  
  5.         //Load Level file using FILE I/O store in structure
  6.         int scrollx=worldx/tiledimx;
  7.         int scrolly=worldy/tiledimy;
  8.  
  9.         int offsetx=worldx % tiledimx;
  10.         int offsety=worldy % tiledimy;
  11.  
  12.         //Draw Screen
  13.         for(int y=0;y<numtilesy+1;y++)
  14.         {
  15.                 for(int x=0;x<numtilesx+1;x++)
  16.                 {
  17.                         tilecoord.x=(x*tiledimx)-offsetx;
  18.                         tilecoord.y=(y*tiledimy)-offsety;
  19.  
  20.                         char tile=map[y][x];
  21.  
  22.                         //I Assume tilelookup is working right
  23.                         TileLookUp(97,32,32,tile,rect);
  24.                         mapsprite.Draw(anobject->pTexture,&rect,NULL, NULL, 0.0f,&tilecoord,0xffffffff);
  25.                 }
  26.         }
  27. }
  28.

You forgot to actually use the scrollx and scrolly variables you calculated in the first rows.

Yep,

char tile=map[y + scrolly][x + scrollx];

will do the trick I guess... ;)

Thank you much. I spent a long time trying to figure this out. What a dumb mistake thanks for the help.
