what is a nameless label and what is a temporary label as opposed to something like this: someramval equ $01 ... ... lda someramval cmp #01 bne someaddr ... ... someadder: rts i've heard these terms before but dont really know what type of label they are refering to. i assume that a nameless label i...

i believe there was one called kart fighter or something like that. it featured super mario brothers characters. it was entertaining but the movement was too choppy. im not sure if it would be in the same class of pirates as the others, becuase other than the characters, i haven't seen a game that t...

would writing to a name table not currently being rendered cause glitches? or do all writes to vram durring non-vblank time cause errors?

mine are stored in a cabinent (spelled wrong?) thats built into the wall im my living room. its nice and cool in there and never in direct sunlight. plus i can reach it from the couch and swap in whatever i wanna play.

i have 3d worldrunner and the effect works with just plain cardboard/cellophane glasses. and i dont remember ever seeing some that plug into the nes.

is U.k. english that different to make it necessary? i think its similar enough to get the point across.

try nescafe as it was written in java and the author claims it'll work on any machine (i wouldnt know, i run winXP/suse linux), but its worth a try. just make sure you have the jre installed.

I don't know where the idea that the "$02" was the number of times to shift the value came from

that statement was posted earlier in the thread, but made no sense to me, so i brought it up to avoid misinformation.

for the NES, using a high level language is not realistically feasible. you will have to learn 6502asm and use an assembler. and as for disassemblers, for me i learned more from tracing a rom in a debugger and watching as it runs in an emulator. looking at a disassembled rom tends to be confusing. a...

well i learned something:

5. The number that follows the ROL is how many times the Memory/Register is shifted.

i thought the the numder after it was an address.

in any group of people, the correlation of members and childish antics rise together.

i used hexposure awhile back (compared to others its lacking features, which led me to write my own).

becuase of where i got the PCs from that makes sense. aright thanks.

recently i was given a couple of PC's and i gutted them. there is one part that im not sure what it is. it says "IBM FRU P/N 25H2203". i searched on the internet and i believe it may be an ISA point of sale attachment adapter though im not sure what that is and cant seem to find any info o...

eor toggles bits for example: %00001111 eor with %11111111 is %11110000 what helped me was the phrase "one or the other, but not both" and a scanline is a row of pixels on whatever is getting drawn to. manipulating pixels durring rendering is difficult and requires timed PPU writes (i beli...

shift the bits the other direction.

%00001000 = 8
shift right twice
%00000010 = 2

or were you looking for an algorithm like the mulitplication example?
