[roms] cartgroup=2 cartidx=1 changed from 0 to 1 WORKS!! Thanks for tolerating me you guys!! This was a user error on my part...I've typed so much...worked in gimp for hours on end...and it was a simple number being 0 or 1.

😅

Just curious about sprite management by scanline in bB standard kernel... is it possible? Other than color when those options are enabled for p0/p1, is it possible to change things about a sprite line by line? For example, if you wanted to move a multi-line ball or missile to institute a shift/bend (like in my profile picture with the reaper's scythe) or if you wanted to make a player sprite double wide for added size but just for a couple lines (like in Kung Fu Master to extend the players leg beyond the typical 8 pixels in order to kick).

They are just a set of 4 independent resistors in one device. They can go up-down or down-up, it doesn’t matter. Similarly for the capacitor networks. On my boards the silkscreen didn’t come out very well, definitely had to refer to the brd file.

@madness77, @phaeron thanks for the input. Yeah - these seem to be the relevant lines of my code: #define CART_TYPE_WILLIAMS_64K 15 // 32k/64k if (car_type == 8) { cart_type = CART_TYPE_WILLIAMS_64K; expectedSize = 65536; } if (car_type == 22) { cart_type = CART_TYPE_WILLIAMS_64K; expectedSize = 32768; } So we do appear to have incorrectly 'typed' car files, but it would probably be best if I just updated the code to accept either if this is common. This is exactly the same code as the UnoCart firmware, so its interesting this has taken so many years to come up 🙂 Will update the code when I get a spare minute, Robin

Try Heartlight sometime: Single screen, Boulderdash elements. There is also a VBXE version:

Yeah it's clipping info off...I've never seen that "Type 8" in the debugger on carts that I know for sure are. Am I missing something here regarding AMS mode 2? (There is no mention of AMS mode in the pdf. Is this a reference to sams?) I just did a drag n drop of the bin. 2xxxxx ...ain't the right line for what I was doing just saw the 16384 which is 4000 in hex. killercater.bin

I don't know if it's because I'm emulating a window's environment in linux or what but on mine I can't scroll in the left pane nor is it resizable.

Availability.. Quality of the game..trends.. If your system has the best version of the port..then it becomes more popular.. if people say ..oh you gotta play Penguin kun wars on the msx..it's the best.... well that goes up in value then Anyway. I'm glad you got the game you wanted.. i am sure it feels different than playing on emulator..

Last call to pre-order JagFest T-shirts! Get those in by May 15. Ran the numbers, and here's what fans can expect at JagFest next month for game reveals: - 5 Jaguar games - 5 Lynx games - 2 Nuon games This will be a combination of demos of unreleased games and exclusive announcements of upcoming games. List may grow too!

People are far less different than you can imagine. i too liked action games as a kid. Same as you! i did not get better in playing action games because i basically need a service dog (how do you call such dog in UK?). I need a dog because my eyesight is not OK since kindergarten... i played a lot logical puzzle games. So I started to like them! I plan to find all Atari 800/400 games and try to play them i play computer games since... It was so long ago I do not remember... Maybe in 1990? As far i remember i did try to play Rockford (PC CGA) a lot! I tried my best and sucked (US English... 😜 ) in it badly, like in almost all action games including action-platform. in those times i did not have many games so i tried harder than ever... i tried many times to play Boulderdash... Last time like 1-2 years ago

I still don't have the boards, but I was reviewing the PCB layout and orientation of parts and just want to make triple sure - even though there are dots on the silk screen, the orientation of all RNs does not matter, correct?

I was wondering if there is some data or format missing from my roms..as that clone does play real famicom carts ( just not mine ).. But i will get a real famicom as this clone won't run my disk drive system anyway.. Thanks !

Looking for unreleased game carts for tigervision's "Changes" and "Matterhorn". Anyone out there have working rom files? I know they were unreleased but so were some of the funware carts and they ended up on the internet regardless. I also have some custom made art for them being that they were not released.

Very nice game, great graphics and smooth (jumping) animation of the player! Reminds me to the inverse key I used alot in Basic programming 35 years ago 🙂

My high score for this game is 928,982. I have been playing off and on for about 22 years now. I'm surprised to see no one beat my score. I thought for sure that Kermit or someone would beat it.

changed that "bankedConsoleGROMs=0" and the path to the bin is correct...it's in the root of the folder. same as all working games

It should make no difference.

This did not work for me. The bin file must be intact or it wouldn't load by menu...but this just beeeeps in app mode.

Question: I note that when I reset my TI-99/4a with the reset button on my FinalGROM99, the palette of the F18A is not reset. Is this a known issue? And if yes, anyway to reset F18A palette without a full power cycle? Not a big nuisance, but anyway.

Just goes to show you it's all different for everyone. I find Boulderdash infinitely easier than puzzles like Tensor. Mind you, I spent 100's of hours as a kid/teenager playing Boulderdash.

Many moons ago before the advent of smartphones, we took a road trip. To keep the kids entertained, I connected 2 color handheld TV's with headphones, one for each kid, to a small VCR powered by an DC to AC cigarette lighter converter and they were able to watch a bunch of Disney VHS tapes throughout the entire drive. Now that was cutting edge in-car entertainment! 😁

Has setting the cluster size to 8192 when formatting a card been proven to be more reliable or work better with the GD?

Yea. Easy for me. i like logical-puzzle games I do not give up i finished all logical-puzzle games I started excluding some later stages of GNU Robbo, but i'm not sure if it those extra stages were buggy or difficult... Forgot about that game thanks! I need to try again :D But Boulderdash was way too difficult for me. i do not have good sight for action-logical-puzzle games... I finished Lode Runner twice on Atari 800 emulator, but when there is too much action i am not good in it... Also I finished easily PoP2 and never the first one!
