Re: [demo] SNES Sonic
I posted a separate thread about this, but it totally makes sense to just put the comment here too after you talking about being equal to Sat/PSX in some ways: If someone had told me this Trials of Mana boss fight was coming from a Sat/PSX game, I totally would have believed it: https://youtu.be/TG...

Re: [demo] SNES Sonic
Do you think he's still working on that game, and is it even for the SNES? I'm not porting the complete Sonic to the SNES because the snes sprite limits really complicate porting 1:1, as I use 8x8/16x16 sprites to maximize the 512 sprite tiles, it would be difficult to make the large objects of the...

Re: [demo] SNES Sonic
I mean, Tiago did say he didn't intend on porting the full Sonic game, and that this was just to test his engine, which he plans to use for a custom Sonic-like game with unspecified Donkey Kong Country-like elements. Do you think he's still working on that game, and is it even for the SNES? I'm not...

Re: [demo] SNES Sonic
There used to be a link to the ROM in the first post, but it's been edited out for some reason... Sorry, i removed the ROM because in the future i will post a more complete version and also not to come into friction with NesDev's rules about posting others' intellectual property without authorizati...

Re: [demo] SNES Sonic
In the original Sonic I think it can happen to have 4 to 7 enemies at the same time. To avoid misses, it might be good to use predictive animation with double buffering (tepples used it in the Haunted games on NES). If my calculations are correct, with reasonably efficient DMA handling code it shou...

Re: [demo] SNES Sonic
Thanks! I'm actually a multi-system fan! (from 8bit to psx/saturn). I still want to try something on the PC-Engine, It's really cool to see somebody with this kind of mind, then i suppose those demos are your "hello world" :wink: As a pcengine/supergrafx coder,i suggest you to aim the sup...

Re: [demo] SNES Sonic
Sonic 1 engine isn't optimal in the way it handles active objects, it just clips them horizontally (128 px off screen) while all the vertical area is still active. The problem is that Sonic levels can be quite large even on the vertical axis so that raise quite a lot the number of active objects at...

Re: [demo] SNES Sonic
Thanks! I'm actually a multi-system fan kkk (from 8bit to psx/saturn). I still want to try something on the PC-Engine, that HuC6280 is a rocket! Oh, that's a pleasant surprise. I'm a multi-system fan too. Also watch where you type those Ks. I know they mean lol in Portuguese, but in an English-lang...

Re: [demo] SNES Sonic
How many enemies appear onscreen at one time in the original game? Not just within 128 pixels, but actually onscreen and visible? VBlank is about 6 KB long minus overhead. A few enemies made of a handful of 16x16 sprites each should easily fit with no special measures, even if they all animate on t...

Re: [demo] SNES Sonic
This port is incredible,even at this stage really . I thought tiago was a megadrive fan and he wasn't very good(or even interested) at SNES coding,i was wrong. Thanks! I'm actually a multi-system fan! (from 8bit to psx/saturn). I still want to try something on the PC-Engine, that HuC6280 is a rocket!

The missing animation frames are from enemies Crabmeat and Neutron,psycopathicteen wrote: ↑Sun Aug 09, 2020 10:51 am What animation frames are missing? They looked the same to me.
and some sprites that use backdrop tiles.

Re: [demo] SNES Sonic
Audio doesn't work in no$sns. It works on real hardware, so this isn't really your problem... Pushing Start apparently causes Sonic to get locked into whatever animation cycle he's in at the moment, and allows you to move him all around the screen with the D-pad. Pushing Y spawns a ring. Pushing St...

Re: [demo] SNES Sonic
This really is some amazing work you've done there! I played a bit and everything seemed about right, though I must admit I haven't actually played Sonic 1 so I don't know if things REALLY are all that accurate or not. At some point I decided to step through the code with Mesen-S's CPU Debugger and...
