Re: SNES Pixel Art

Here is a gif screencap of an old demo. I was pretty happy with the little animation.

Getting into more intricate/usable stuff soon

Re: How fast are you people at programming?

I can't imagine making pong would be harder than making an object handler code, a metasprite code, a palette finder code that I'm mostly done with, an animation engine and a vram finder code that I'm about halfway finished with, and some other things. You could do something simple like Pong/Columns...

Re: How fast are you people at programming?

with regard to the original purpose of this post, It usually doesn't take me long to get something up and running, it's a matter of getting it working exactly as intended, or making sure it works on the hardware. I've also been programming SNES stuff in my "spare" time so it's hard to gaug...

Re: 2 nes homebrew games finished

I was going through older posts and I just wanted to say I think you should develop the Vigilante game, it's quite nice! If it had more detailed animation/bg etc I think it would be a really great experience. There are some internal tweaks you could make, for example when you hold down the punch or ...

Re: making images with multiple palettes and exporting tilem

Just to toss my two cents in, I'm still using those Excel macros I wrote for all my graphical needs. It's slow and clunky in many ways but so was every other alternative I ever tried. I'll take a look at the excel stuff, but truthfully I hate excel and most of the ms office suite. It is unfair and ...

Re: making images with multiple palettes and exporting tilem

93143 thanks for the info and links to the post. I've been bad at lurking on here lately. Espozo, sorry I didn't word things very well. I'm aware gimp is free and by tablet I meant a drawing tablet like this guy: http://assets.wacom.com/~/media/archive/images/gallery-images/inuous-pen-and-touch/gall...

Re: making images with multiple palettes and exporting tilem

Does Photoshop have anything like this? Nah, you can view the color table if your image is in an indexed color mode, but you can't rearrange them. When you save for web with a .gif or png 8 you can order the colors by hue/luminance/popularity which is pretty helpful but seems to not output consiste...

making images with multiple palettes and exporting tilemaps

I recently did a test of background mode 0, using the same image with multiple palettes: https://igcdn-photos-e-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xaf1/t51.2885-15/11246815_1583587288562148_1018407010_n.jpg however it was a bit of a pain going from photoshop --> rearranging tiles --> gif --> pcx --> pcx2snes...

Is there more info on the SE online already? Sorry if maybe I glossed over it in the SNES Programming Manual...

The second link doesn't work for me. I'm curious it's MIDI in right? Was that for the SONY News software that is mentioned in the SNES Programming manual?

Re: Any Recommendations for SNES Tracker forums?

yeah their tracker is not released. The video sounds like he's made other ones about the snes tracker but I haven't searched through all his videos. There's no indication about what percentage it is done, what features the program has (ie importing/editing samples), or if they really intend to relea...
