this class allows you to build a TileMap the scroll it in full screen or part of screen see the screenshot below , here is the prototype of the class

class DLL_EXPORT TImageStrip
{
f32 Coords[4][2];
f32 fWidth,fHeight ...

suppose you have a map with 1000X1000 elements,it is defeculte to fill this map by declaring
static value.

so to fill this map we made small map , say 20X20 elements and this small map will repeated many times to fill the large map.

Map[J*mph*ScrnX+I*mpw+x+y*ScrnX] = tileMap[x+y*mpw];
