SPC is complete and utter shit. But it was the first out the gate, and no amount of improvements will ever convince anyone to switch. See: IPS, CHT, SMC, ZIP, WLA-DX, etc. The overall implication of this statement is simply not true. I know a lot of ROM hackers (myself included) who were early adop...

Hi, solbad03! Hm, that's odd. To start afresh (assuming you're already running v3.00), format your CF card with FAT32, create a folder named POWERPAK, then copy all of this stuff (except for the two SIvX.MAP files, which are only needed for the initial upgrade to v3.00) into it. This is what your PO...

My webspace was yet again down for hours yesterday. I already complained to the hoster about the frequent outages. So please grab the files now, while you can.

@jwdonal, great work, highly appreciated!

I think I've found an error in v1.5 though. VS and GND on the LM324 seem to be reversed (cf the datasheet):

Awesome progress.

This new build supports scrolling backgrounds (no collisions/dynamic tile map updates yet, though).

"how did the PowerPak manage to screw up (H)DMA with the old firmware, and could it still be doing something like it?". I used to leave $420B/$420C in whatever state they were in before starting a game. As of build #11331, I do stz $420B : stz $420C ( details in the commit ). I can't test...

Tested this on my 1/1/1 Super Famicom (PowerPak/MUFASA build #11331): No errors at all with dmacolor.sfc (downloaded Jan 09, 2016), but immediate glitches with dmac_align.sfc (no glitches after tapping Reset though). 1) I really hope you got that backwards. I did not. :| 2) If you didn't, what did ...

Once again, the sheer resolution is scaring me off.

What's so bad about letterboxing though?

Tested this on my 1/1/1 Super Famicom (PowerPak/MUFASA build #11331): No errors at all with dmacolor.sfc (downloaded Jan 09, 2016), but immediate glitches with dmac_align.sfc (no glitches after tapping Reset though). Then again, with that poor resolution, I don't see the point of all this. If it's j...

http://manuloewe.de/snestuff/projects/furryrpg_build_00243.png While it may not look like much has changed at first glance, I'm rather fond of the progress made. :) Tilemap updates and other DMA stuff during Vblank is now done as requested by the main program only (probably still not as cool as d4s...

Here we go again.

I was planning on showing zoomed in version of the top row of pixels, but it turns out that on my 1/1/1 Super NES and SNES PowerPak running MUFASA firmware 11325, "dmacolour.7z" from this post runs like crap. Did I load the wrong ROM? There's a known bug related to -- you guessed it -- (H...

Tecmo's Secret of the Stars looks as though it was meant to be an NES game.

I'd be happy to beta-read your stuff. Though I'm not a native speaker of English, I do feel confident using the language, especially since I spent two semesters studying languages at UoA several years ago.

I'll send you a PM with my contact details.
