abaudrand Posted July 23, 2012 Author Share Posted July 23, 2012 Here's a topic about fixed point math: http://www.atariage....xed-point-math/ It may be retarded but you could probably simulate numbers like 1.3 by using two variables. thanks for the link. I didn't knew you can include the player0X/Y in the writing to spare a variable. However my issue is probably simple for good programmer. all the parts I use this methode work fine safe the part on the mountain with lightnings (cf. video on the blog). If the player go left and slide a bit, he can stop by pushing joystick right. but if you slide right and push left to stop sliding, the increment still going as the value can' t be set at zero. I got this for over a year and left for the moment as I think the issue come from another part of the program. I ll post it later as I prefer increase my knowledge by doing other part that eventually help me to understand the problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abaudrand Posted May 11, 2013 Author Share Posted May 11, 2013 Been away from this project cos of that . Time to dive in again ! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abaudrand Posted November 9, 2013 Author Share Posted November 9, 2013 Teaser #1 a bit outdated video but which could give you an insight of the game. sorry for the horrible accent. The project is for the moment on stand-by as I had to switch to W7. The compilation of bataribasic weirdly crashed on some instructions that were okay on the XP built I had. I got a long list of bugs to solve just to have the same version which is displayed on this video. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YANDMAN Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 a trial of packaging: still work to do on it but its a good start This game looks really cool i would definitely buy a cartridge, I love the general artwork but not so keen on the traditional label style and font, i think it would look better being a full label using the title font from the packaging, Great work though, How close to finishing are you??

I agree that the label and cart lables should not match atari game. Anyway the game is at a crossage for the moment: Debugging the current version and finish it on a 32ko scheme or completly rewrite it and go for a 64ko version. Me and my bro are focused on the moment on a short sci fi movie and are quite busy on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abaudrand Posted June 21, 2015 Author Share Posted June 21, 2015 never released as the gameplay is not balanced. goin to release a demo soon and maybe ask for help as my skills are too limited 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abaudrand Posted August 17, 2015 Author Share Posted August 17, 2015 We want to try to build a cartridge and need help. The game is 64Ko with a SARA chip. What kind of Eprom to buy? what USB PLD to buy? Where to find PCB designed for the 2 chips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abaudrand Posted November 14, 2015 Author Share Posted November 14, 2015 Hi, I'm looking for a blueprint for making a PCB. The game will use a 64ko+SARA chip scheme. if anyone have schematics, it will be very helpful. Unfortunately, there are no reference on this website: http://www.grandideastudio.com/portfolio/pixels-past/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately, there are no reference on this website: http://www.grandideastudio.com/portfolio/pixels-past/ Are you sure you don't want to be lazy and just let AtariAge supply the boards? I think the Melody boards can already handle 64k + SARA. At least I thought so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abaudrand Posted November 16, 2015 Author Share Posted November 16, 2015 well, yes that will probably end like that... just feeling i'm in a desert with that topic... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Gemintronic Posted November 21, 2015 Share Posted November 21, 2015 well, yes that will probably end like that... just feeling i'm in a desert with that topic... There is a user on the NintendoAge forums called Jazzmarazz. He might have enough cart making background to give you some hints. http://jazz-disassemblies.blogspot.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abaudrand Posted September 23, 2017 Author Share Posted September 23, 2017 (edited) We haven't succeed to make a cartridge using old chip from Atari game like Desert Falcon. My friend Yann who was trying to make it left the project as his new job is too demanding. No further update to come for the moment. I'm currently changing job and back at school till end of year.

CPUWIZ Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 I have designed a board that can do that, it can go up to 256K + SARA. EDIT: Added link. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abaudrand Posted September 23, 2017 Author Share Posted September 23, 2017 I have designed a board that can do that, it can go up to 256K + SARA. Yes you told me that once. We will make our decision about the cartridge once the game will be completed. I'd rather come with something working instead of wasting other's people time. Anyway thanks for the offer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just a box with 200 boards, I have piles of more carts. I collect them for homebrews, there are millions of Crystal Castles and Dig Dug's out there.
