Since there is 256+ objects and under 512 (tiles) you should use 9 bit long integers to get the information. So what you might have is (this is presuming your using an unsigned char type) for (counter=0;counter<(7*10);counter++) { object_number = fgetc(in); // Your Function to put object_number into your object map object possibly OBJECT_MAP[7][10] DoSomethingWithThisNumber( object_number, counter ); } now if you were using 9 bit intergers you might be doing something like this: ****************************************************** * 1 * 2 * 3 * 4 * 5 * 6 * 7 * 8 * 9 * ****************************************************** * Object Number under 256 * 1/0 * ****************************************************** so if bit 9 were 0 you would keep the number from bits 1-8 but if it were 1 you would add 256 to the number from bits 1-8. This just makes the file size smaller but you could make it so that each tile takes up two bytes of data...
