Oh my god I feel so stupid!!!! I remember trying to use this when I was trying to make sprites by binary I had forgot all about it. Thank you for pointing this out to me again.

I am so sorry!!!

Does th code need to be listed vertically or can I copy it horazontally into the map file?

What It spits out for my 16x16 Sprite is two vertical columns 16 tall.

Ok when I type the code generated by the bitmap encoder I get a negative image when I test it n simbuino.

They look right in the bit map encoder but when tested its two tone black and white n negative.

You need to set the foreground to black and the background to white. You can find in the wiki how to do that, e.g. the reference page i already linked

Spent all day yesterday coding my sprites. For some reason some sprites will only come out as "0xFF". Ive tried deleting them and remaking them but they still only come out as "0xFf".

Is there a maximum amount of character sprites. The link character himself has at least 10 including sheild, no shield, left face, right face, attack left, attack right etc.

Greetings!
You are limited by 32kB of Gamebuino's flash memory. So, the maximum number of sprites you can put in that depends on two main things:
1) size of the sprites
2) amount of code you plan to put in the flash memory --> sprites and code (by that I mean: program logic that makes everything move) are stored in the same place (32 kB flash memory). If you make your game more complex, you'll hew fewer space for sprites.

Any plans to upgrade the sd card?

Is there a flip function? I can squeeze more by flipping some.
