Nope, not that I can find. For any other translations, you should look here: http://www.romhacking.net/

Thanks for the link. Too bad regarding Bard's Tale II though. I wish I could read and understand japanese

You could eventually implement some pseudo math creating virtual "software" BCD-Numbers. I've been discussing this in my blog: http://www.atariage.com/forums/index.php?automodule=blog&blogid=54&showentry=2045 A friend of mine came up with some pretty cool pseudo BCD implementation...

how does Harry get across the pit alive? Maybe it's one of the screens where the swamp will just disappear if you wait a while? :lol: But yes, I'd also think sprites would be better suited :) BTW: A friend of mine once reverse-engineered Pitfall, if you haven't seen it yet: http://www.bjars.com/sou...

If this is to be complied with DASM, put before the data block.

nesreproductions.com ? Is this the only source for NES homebrew productions? Yeah, what the heck? You guys didn't answer my question whether I should have someone reproduce it for me or if this kind of stuff can be learned pretty easily. Uhm... but I don't know the answer. I registered here a week ...

You could eventually implement some pseudo math creating virtual "software" BCD-Numbers. I imagine that you'd write your own bcdINC/bcdDEC/bcdADD/bcdSUB methods for this, which'd properly handle overflows from 9 to A or underflows from 0 to F. One would need to see how much time worst case...

For anyone that has a game (or demo, music disk, etc.) that doesn't do mid-frame CHR bankswitching (or can otherwise tolerate being converted to CHR-RAM, basically), and is smaller than 256kB, then it's available right now. :) Now that's incredibly good news! I'm currently toying with a hopefully (...

Sure. I can see the challenge for a hardare guy. Being a software guy myself I'm just trying to figure the size of this roadblock

It is somewhat uncommon. People who import carts will do it, but I think a lot of the more non-technically oriented people don't want to open up their NES and cut stuff in there. There's like a bazillion screws in there (standard phillips thankfully), and armor plating (makes the NES much lighter w...

Is it complicated a mod to generally disable that kind of reset within the NES itself? Nope, you just open up the NES and break off the 4th pin of the lockout chip. Then supposedly solder it to GND, but I think most people don't do that step and it seems to be just fine (must be TTL, so that's prob...

Is it sort of a standard in this community? I originally planned to use DASM, but I could easily adopt to CA65, especially since I'm just starting NES programming
