I'd like to make games using character graphics akin to the Aquarius. I can't find the current rights holder to Aquarius so maybe a different character set is in order. http://www.vdsteenoven.com/aquarius/ The set used in LogoNES is donationware which is OK but is suited mostly to making full screen...

DRRNES is an NES emulator made in QBASIC.

Maybe simple enough to get a general idea?

So, ripping sprites from commercial games is a no-no. But, what about fonts? I heard that scalable fonts are copyrightable but maybe not bitmap.

It sounds like one would be safer using Eranas font than Dwedits in this case.

I think it's important to note if this is an IDE for C or ASM. I personally come from a high-level language background so I'd stick with NESICIDE which is an IDE for C. @Hamtaro126: It sounds like yu have some valuable feedback for cpow regarding NESICIDE. If you have anything to contribute I'm sure...

Please forgive as, once again, i don't have enough knowledge to truly help. Instead of using a save ram hack for Ice Climber why not just expand the thing from 16k to 32k? As I understand you wouldn't have to change the "mapper" at all. It's already 32K. Yeah. I missed that. However, what...

Being completely clueless I would think that VS patches would consist of

A. Finding the palette and changing the values to the NES version.
B. Finding the credits inserted value and changing that to 99

What makes these kinds of conversions challenging?

My motivation hasn't been very high lately unfortunately. Has anybody else noticed that when you lose the "flow", it gets increasingly hard to get back to a project as time passes? Yes I noticed that. I'm in the same boat. I couldn't touch my project for more than a year, almost 2 and now...

@cpow: As a side, when I select NROM Hello World Project as a template should there be something added to the new project? Any code or whatever? Not yet, that's a WIP. I'm investigating the best way to embed the project wizard material in the package. Embedding them as resources could get unwieldy ...

THANKS CPOW!!!

The first thing we're wondering is how well this assembler manages memory, how accurate it is, and that kind of stuff. If it's as weak as Batari BASIC, then some people may flee from it. Those are the people who want power for their thing. I haven't personally noticed any of the weaknesses stated i...

Bob Rost is usually pretty permissive about adapting his work

Maybe changing the coursework to use NESICIDE and cc65 would be a good idea.

He probably realized that, as the least experienced of all, my opinion to completely rewrite his tutorial for NESICIDE and cc65 was priority ONE. The suggestion to use the CC65 toolchain was only partly slanted toward the *possibility* of adding C-language tutorial material to the work. Many have u...

As anyone who has worked with EDLIN knows it can take weeks to replace each instance of the word "assembly" with "C".
