It's my name.

My other username is homsar47 after the best character ever, Homsar. Yes I'm registered on here twice, and no I did not know about it when making this account.

It was me. And a buddy of mine named Frank.

Have you ever felt weird seeing this many people (that being most of SNESdev) using a term you created? I'd feel like some sort of celebrity.

Moral of the story: if you disagree with anyone, back off or die.

Not really but some people really can't be bargained with. You didn't do anything 12-year-old like but it's a nice insult!

*sees gbc game code released*
Oh, cool!
*sees that it utilizes C*
Not so cool.

Something about code written in GBDK just doesn't interest me. Maybe because it has so many pre-written functions, and I like seeing how different programmers work the wheel.

Das ist wahr, mein Schmetterling.

In my experience, Java is clunky and slow no one ever has the runtime when they need it. Spanish is something that most people I know only speak through school, so the runtime thing makes sense to me due to living entirely around English speakers but the language itself is simpler than English (C++)...

The ARM7TDMI processor implements the ARMv4t architecture (ARM architecture version 4 with Thumb). This means the GBA's CPU and the DS's IOP won't be affected. This means devkitPro can stay updated, right? Hope so because the developers of it seem to be all about discouraging usage of deprecated so...

Man...the truth is, the younger generation really is getting sensitive to the point of insanity. Truth. It just gets excessive when someone says a bunch of BS and berates others and all that and says that people should "just stop being so sensitive", which you're not doing. Seriously, I'v...

Your config file is pointing to $808000 and so on for code and not $8000, right? (Or $800000 and $0000, can't remember).

EDIT: Wait, are you using a pointer to BSS for a location to jump to? Then it should assemble as 16-bit, so that's not the problem.

My pong game on the NES is nothing special (its physics are not as complex as you're designing at all) but maybe it can give some inspiration: https://github.com/nicklausw/pong-conso ... master/nes

How have I managed to miss all of these people? I can't help but feel that people always talk about these "feminazis" because everyone else does, but I've never seen one. What exactly does a "feminazi" even do? Ask for equal pay? Ask to not be segregated from men at every corner...

EDIT: I think I'm misguided on the topic but eh. On the topic of character diversity on the NES: not surprising that a Japanese console doesn't have a lot of character diversity. As for America, it was 80's and 90's, so. On the topic of character diversity now: not everyone has to be a PoC or LGBT+....

It's one that getopt wouldn't actually help out with, because the args order changed.

Later today I'll see about implementing getopt instead, but if things don't work then...¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I checked out getopt.c and...really? I mean, sure, the functionality is ideal, but the internal getopt function is such a giant that I don't see the problem with just using a much simpler parser that probably handles things just as well outside of the issue in spacing. Even taking in account the fac...

Also, koitsu, WLA will probably figure out that it's reading a binary file as input before opening the actual input file and overwriting it. Can't confirm right now.

EDIT: yep, it looks like the "object file" isn't opened until a later stage than source file parsing.
