ok, dunno if its anyuse but here is my BG loop:


 for(x=0;x<10;x++) //10 on x
   for(y=0;y<8;y++) //8 on y
    {
     BGsprite.u = ter_type[level][y][x]*32;

/*selects from the 3D array the level being played, the y and x cords and
uses x, and y to find the tile type*/

     BGsprite.v = (level/3)*32;

/* uses the level number to find the v value, as the terain type (sand,grass
etc) go down the graphic and different tile across*/

     BGsprite.x = x*32;
     BGsprite.y = y*32;
     GsSortSprite(&BGsprite, &world_ordering_table[output_buffer_index], 2);
/*display each tile as it is proceced*/
    }

below is my level array..

char ter_type[26][8][10] = {
//0   GRASS
