Cool! You have me inspired to do more nes cc65 homebrew. thanks Shiru8bit.

I know zero about programing games, but this is an iinteresting watch

Interesting... Kinda reminds me of the NESDOUG's cc65 library

He acknowledges it on his page that he derived his work from my code (partially, perhaps). I published original version of this library sometime 2011-12, I think.

Very interesting. Did you make that mapconv tool yourself? And how are you launching FCEUX / recompiling the C code?

@shiru8bit

+Tom Brannan Yes, I make custom map tools for every large project, to cover its specific needs. Usually they're quickly hacked together from ones I did previously, the same with mapconv here. To compile and launch, I use a simple batch script and NppExec for Notepad++, so I just press Ctrl+F6, and either get error messages, or get compiled game running in a second.

Nice to see 8x16 metasprite mode being supported in NESST 2.04. Any plans to release it?

Is all of your development done entirely in C? How often (if ever) do you need to optimize the compiled assembler code by hand?

@shiru8bit

8 жыл бұрын

+AlderDragon Most of my development done in C. Usually it is enough for simple arcade games without scrolling, these rarely need any assembly code optimization. This particular project is much more complex than a usual small homebrew game, so it has lots of assembly code (to avoid slowdowns), but C still used for prototyping in-place. However, I'm never optimizing compiled code by hand, rather writing it by hand from scratch, once logic is all sorted out and debugged. First half of this video shows C prototyping stage, second half shows rewriting finished C code into assembly code by hand.

Mr shiru what would you say about the PPU viewer what would be the code for getting my rom on the screen on the emulator pls help!?!?!

+Doc ter QUAZAR That's a custom map converter/level editor tool. I'm using this approach: design a level as a large greyscale BMP file (keeping in mind all limitations on the tile count etc), then import it with the custom tool that converts it into CHR, metatiles, and map data, then manually set palettes, walk map, and objects placements using the same tool.

How or can I get it ?

+Doc ter QUAZAR It is a custom tool that can only be used with this exact project, with implied knowledge of the project internals, so it won't be released. I don't see much point in releasing the base code for it either, as it is for Borland Turbo C++, and it would need extra code to customize it for another project - if someone can do this, he can as well make a similar tool instead, in a day or two. That's a normal practice for any large retro console project, you just have to make some custom tools.

I'm doing game dev for a long while, so it isn't difficult to learn a new tool. All you need is read the docs, and maybe look into some examples.

Hey shiru when it says meta Sprite tile does it mean your tile number of you artwork like yy-chr.

actually it was harder cause they had to work on ancient machines and didn't have emulators. sometimes (maybe most times) they would have to set up custom development kits, wiring a famicom by hand

And does game.s. Mean game.sound?

@shiru8bit

8 жыл бұрын

File extension *.s normally used for assembly source code in various toolchains, such as GNU tools. In this particular case it is an intermediate output, game.c (C code) gets compiled by cc65 into game.s (assembly code), game.s gets compiled by ca65 into game.o (object file), then it gets linked into the resulting binary.

You need to select pattern table for background and for sprites via PPUCTRL ($2000, bits 3,4). You should manually put the graphics into the pattern table you selected.

I don't use YY-CHR at all, never used it, and I have no idea what are you doing, so I can't answer. Again, I highly recommend you NesDev forums and wiki, that's the right place for such questions.
