This is a loading screen. I also know that this game dynamically makes some of its code and sends it to WRAM to execute, so that's part of the magic that might be happening in the background.

I can determine exactly what went wrong now that I realize where the bug was. What you wrote to $F0 resulted in the following instead of your intended effect... - RAM Writes were disabled (this is why you ran into your bug in which nothing was being written) - Timers don't work - Waitstates on RAM a...

Maybe SNESGSS will do the trick? https://code.google.com/p/snesgss/ On my end, I don't use that sound driver (at least for its traditional use: through the application) due to a platform incompatibility. However, I have assisted with its implementation in Furry RPG, and I fooled around with the soun...

Welcome back undisbeliever! For Elevator Madness DX, you press Start to play the game. I can't test these games on real hardware. I have an actual SNES, but no cart capable of playing custom programs. I'm still glad to play with them via emulator, even if briefly. I have successfully made real SNES ...

The assembler loads a value from a memory location (which would be whatever is stored in $0004 plus the data bank register) instead of a constant without that # there.

Sure it is! Simply put in a line somewhere saying...

bullet = 4

That's how to define for at least the .asm file.

That initialize command is required each time you change the pointer to either the ADSR table or the SFX (you currently don't use SFX). Otherwise, the main thing that seems to be going wrong in your playback is related to wrong ADSR envelopes. Since changing sample packs changes the ADSR and SFX poi...

To me, granular synthesis sounds correct.

Why did you have to hand code waveforms? I hand-coded them on the grounds that I wanted fine control over the sample I was creating. I could have just simply snatched any old pulse wave sample and resampled it, but in this case, I decided to specially craft one and import it raw. Do these waves hav...

So all the sample IDs refer to the same sample, but at different loop points?? Yee, but what effect have you exactly achieved here?? Is there a name for this, and does it require a certain type of sample waveforms to produce the effect? I have no idea what's going on, please keep filling in light o...

You need to issue a command to the SNESGSS sound driver to make it play sound in stereo (the sound is mono by default). The command ID according to the source code is 03, and you need to send it a parameter of 01 to make it stereo. Feel free to use the old method for now for this build (as in, havin...

I simply messed around with the sample IDs while the note is playing. The SPC700 will simply fetch different loop points as it plays the samples when the sample ID is changed without keying on the sample again. SNESGSS's change instrument feature directly messes with the sample ID and ADSR envelope,...

I also had the idea of non linear playback of a waveform pointer (like with 80's Casio keyboards). But that would require an interrupt. The idea is that you deform a waveform that has two parts, by stretching or compression the first and second halfs. The timbre changes are you change the mid point...

That's a combination of pitch modulation and playing different samples...

I intend to enhance this effect with real time loop point modifications one day. I'm creating my own sound driver to do this job.

Decided to look up Shonumi for fun... in hiragana. Needless to say, I got next to nothing on Google. The English version says did you mean Shomuni, but points to your works in the search results.
