Hello! I need some help right over here...yes..here... I''ve got an Unsigned Short Buffer that''s 288*224 and the yummy information is in the center of the Buffer I want to Ignore the 16first and the 16last bytes per line, wich gives me a new 256*224 buffer? Can someone help me? please?

Might I ask why you don''t simply size it 256x224?

Well, you simply add 16 to the x value you want, and 32 * y to the y value. Or if your buffer is one long array and you''re wanting to copy whole rows at a time, then start your pointer at 16, and every 256 iterations, add 32 to skip over the unwanted part.
But may I also ask what the point is? I''d guess you''re using the extra space so you don''t have to do any clipping, since at a low screen size like that all your sprites would probably be 16 pixels wide. Don''t think I''ve ever seen anything but SNES use a screen width of 256 before, and it''s also 256 tall, so that couldn''t be what you''re doing. Can''t think of anything it could be used for other than clipping though...

Actually, I''m reading a snes videobuffer (ZSnes) and the Vidbuffer is 288*224, but only 256*224 contains video information, the other 16 + 16 buffers seems to be some kind of scrolling buffer
