Disable Server Compression? Put Username And Password In URL? Here is a recent issue I encountered with a password protected folder. I password protected a folder with a large file in it in order to share the file with someone else. The other person was able to visit the link to the file, enter the...

My Test of Unreadable Password File In my cPanel, I went to the Files section and used the "Directory Privacy" item to set up a password protected folder. After going though that process, cPanel automatically created the .htaccess file in the web folder I selected, and created a correspon...

My website uses Apache and cPanel and I recently set up a password protected folder. Here are some possible tips. I don't even know if it's Apache that my server is running. I think your server is using Apache. Your cPanel page probably looks something like this image: The cPanel Interface (from the...

The commands in the old Windows .BAT file were these... (for Linux, I renamed it "SMB1MA_BAT.SH") copy /b header.bin+smbdis02.bin+chr.bin smb1ma.nes pause However, the "copy" and "pause" commands are Windows-specific and thus are not recognized by Linux, so may I ask w...

Family Basic did not use the Disk System. You could connect a tape recorder to the keyboard to save and load files. The cartridge also had some battery-powered RAM. (2 AA batteries that you could replace.)

I believe the symptoms suggest a problem internal to the PPU, but I'm not as confident diagnosing the hardware side of things. (The NES's sprite memory or OAM (object attribute memory) is internal memory inside the PPU . I edited my previous post to add that I referred to the NESdev Wiki pages on PP...

I like solving puzzles like this. Below I explain a possible lead about what might be going on. Someone more familiar with the hardware side of things may be able to tell if there's any way to fix the issue that's easier than replacing the PPU. My hypothesis is after the PPU decides the (up to) 8 sp...

So how to automatize it? [...] we need to have a scratchpad (which is just an additional array), updated in the following conditions [...] after playing the game for a couple of minutes (exploring some of the places), we would get list of placed that need to be fixed in a ROM. I think this idea mig...

Note that if you change the Game Genie ROM, never leave any of the GG's registers initialized. If you do, the chip seems to become damaged permanently after a short period of time. Several days to weeks, it seemed like. I fried a few, until I started doing it right. I find this interesting. Can you...

I'm trying to implement a small math function. What's the best way to test a standalone function written in ca65? Do I have to assemble and build a .nes file just to debug my math function in Mesen? Mesen has a built-in minimal assembler: If you highlight some code in the debugger, right-click, and...

I think SMB2J-2Q is asking how an emulator decides to automatically switch to PAL mode. Here are some ways emulators do that: If the NES file name ends in "(E)" before the ".nes" extension, some emulators will switch to PAL mode automatically. This is based on the often-used file...

PAL needs different period values from NTSC to achieve the same pitch. PAL needs different duration values in frames from NTSC to achieve the same tempo. [1] The conversion formulas are period_value_pal = (period_value_ntsc + 1) × (cpu_frequency_pal / cpu_frequency_ntsc) - 1 duration_value_pal = dur...

The documentation below says Tetris's music format is the same as Mother's music format but using different data tables.
