Re: bsnes-plus and xkas-plus (new debugger and assembler)

Hcycle is much more useful for timing code than Hdot is. Having thought more about this I agree with byuu, but I also still think that it makes more sense to have the 'H' value in the debugger log be the actual dot number and not the cycle number. But at the same time I think knowing the cycle numb...

This please. :) But of course beggars can't be choosers either. I'm just happy to have this amazing SNES debugger available at all!

Re: bsnes-plus and xkas-plus (new debugger and assembler)

Just to prove that this project is still alive, here's a spiffy new overhaul of the VRAM viewer... Sweet, so excited!! Nice work! :D I hope you can fix up that issue where the PPU registers dialog is blank in the accuracy profile. I second that! I've also found some other bugs: 1) The upper byte of...

Re: Suggestions for timelapse recording of desktop

Success!! I was able to get in touch with the developer of Chronolapse and he added the feature! It's now available in Chronolapse 1.9.0 and 2.0.0 for anyone who is interested. And it works absolutely P-E-R-F-E-C-T-L-Y. No more 1000+ images of dead time consuming my harddrive space! I can get up, wa...

Re: Nesdev.com funding

We had three donations come in after that last post, we have surpassed the goal and are now at $749.45. Since we have reached the goal, the donate button has been removed from the corner of the forums. It looks like we should have our new server and get it up and running sometime between the 2nd an...

Re: Legible SNES Schematics

how the heck did you figure that out? Basically, by looking at your schematic. I LOL'd hard at this. XD And then wondering about the differences between 7Eh-7Fh:0000h-FFFFh (whole 128K address range with mask 1FFFFh) and 00h-3Fh:0000h-1FFFh (first 8K range with mask 01FFFh (or mask 0FFFFh might als...

Re: Legible SNES Schematics

Someone has asked me a question regarding the signal connections to the S-WRAM and I can't figure out the answer. I think it might be an error on the schematic but can find no evidence as such. The question is: Why is S-CPU address bit 22 (i.e. CA22) connected to the "ENA" pin of the S-WRA...

Re: CPU->Cart Address Mapping for ExLoROM/ExHiROM

Thanks for the super-speedy replies! :) ExLoROM doesn't actually exist. It's pirate nonsense to refer to a fictional 8MiB oversize LoROM board. Much as HiROM ignores both A22 and A23, and ExHiROM ignores only A22 (and inverts A23), LoROM ignores A15 (and A23), and so this fictional ExLoROM would ign...

CPU->Cart Address Mapping for ExLoROM/ExHiROM

Hello all, I'm trying to understand what the correct address bus mapping is for ExLoROM and ExHiROM. From what I've pieced together from other posts and websites (e.g. here ) this seems to be the ExHiROM memory mapping: Bank Address Usage 00-3F 8000-FFFF ROM P1 (MIRROR) 40-7F 0000-FFFF ROM P1 80-BF ...

Okay, thanks for confirming. Hopefully a fix will come in the future. Probably a really simple fix.

Wow, that's a big DUH on my part. :roll:

Re: bsnes-plus and xkas-plus (new debugger and assembler)

Hopefully this isn't a dumb question...but why do I see the following: Debug Properties window in NORMAL build: - S-PPU tab shows all appropriate values - S-DSP tab shows no values Debug Properties window in ACCURACY build: - S-PPU tab shows no values - S-DSP tab shows all appropriate values Anyone ...
