Hey all. I'm just writing to say I have all the content implemented in my game and all should be good to go.

I still need to do a big-time final analysis on things and such, but that hopefully won't be too tough.

I plan to make a trailer when I have a specific date figured out. So until then...

Well, there's a hack called Rockman GrayZone out there. I was hoping for that NSF too. It's a RM2 hack yet again.

http://rg20.web.fc2.com/grayarea.html - This is the site with the IPS.

The reply by anders seems to be my interpretation as well. That sort of situation could be done using jump tables. ;Then, you'd have something in your main NMI that works like this: ;Obviously, a real NMI would have more... NMI: JSR GetScreen RTI TableOfDestinations: .dw TitleScreen, GameScreen, Pas...

I had wondered about this, as Crystalis uses both upper and lower case, and so I loaded it up in FCE Ultra and looked in the PPU viewer. To my surprise, there are NO tiles for the actual alphabet at all. They are present in the menus and whatnot. The game uses MMC3, so is there some special trick th...

I think the battleship nsf was a bad rip or one from the PAL version. I recall someone doing a good rip sometime, but I don't know where it was hosted. Try looking in the request thread.

Well, it's interesting. What's inc32 mode? MMC3 is the way to go. It'll be interesting to get it to scroll vertically. I was wondering if you plan to setup a palette cycling thing to get the waterfalls to move (among other animations seen in other stages). Also, just a very minor nitpick and I don't...

Very interesting indeed. Scrolling is the one thing that is tough. it seems you draw two columns of 16x16 tiles every few steps, which seems like it would work. Are you going to modify Famitracker to make sound effects actually work? That's the one problem with using that engine. This project is mor...

Just wanted to post that I have a new, and hopefully finished file that ought to have everything that's in the game. I don't think I'll be doing anything else...

Here's the link to Famitracker's forum's post as direct links do not work:

Hey all. Just thought I'd write with this update... I've got the ending cutscene nearly finished. I got most of the dialogue in, just need to put in an epilogue. I'll also need some graphics, but when I have those, that'll be a one night project. After that's done, all content will be implemented an...

It's there in the real game too. Meant to be there! 8)

ZomCoder wrote:Sivak, I haven't pored through enough posts on nesdev to discover this but, did you do the graphics/music?

Graphics - only partially. In most cases it was just small edits to stuff submitted to me.

Music - Yes. 100%.

- Every time I look at the HUD I have to remind myself the coordinate display is not a clock. Can you please change that colon to another symbol, like a dash or comma (don't forget about changing the item's graphic too)? - Do you have any estimated release date (or something along those lines)? - D...

Well, I had been noticing that the music with the music engine I have has been doing things like having notes be delayed at random intervals. I found that this was due to the tempo not being a power of 2... The best example I can give is a 150 tempo song, which ended up translating into this with th...

The room loading routine is set in stone. It is as fast as I could make it. If I combine steps, pointers become erroneous and the wrong attributes can get written places... Other issues such as the game just stopping were present, hence why it's spread out. Basically, this is the way it does a room:...

Thanks for the comments, start. Do you plan a speed power up? Uh, nah. I already have the items made. They are: High Jump: It is what it says Feather fall: Hold up to drop slower Infinite O2: Breathe underwater forever Double jump: Self-explained One hidden item: Hm hm hm? 8) There are also keys whi...
