Nuon Game System Talk & Discussion

Okay, playing the machine more, I think it's just a problem with the disc drive being on it's way out. Even official titles struggled to read properly. I just got the thing.

Ouch, well, Nuance looks like a good way to debug, especially with a new developer behind it.

 

I had a look at the CD-Rs I have and it turns out I have some Verbatim CD-RWs. Tried them out, and they don't boot up at all, I don't even get the warning screen.

 

I get the feeling I might be using the padding files thing wrong. I archived every Nuon homebrew game in a zip (as "a.zip") and included that. I tried to make another copy with that zip bloated to 500MB using another program, but that didn't help.

These ones? I've been using Verbatm's "Music CDs", and they usually work great on other machines, but it seems to be giving the Nuon trouble.

Okay, I got my N501, and tried to burn a copy of Doom to play on it, following the instructions on Nuon Dome the best I could, and I can't get it to run consistently. It mostly hangs on the "running doom..." screen, and sometimes goes black after "loading doom...". I've only got it booting properly maybe 3 or 4 times.

 

Anyone know what I might be doing wrong?

Yeah, that's where I got the SDK, but I can only get so much out of the SDK's docs.

Update, I got it compiling, I forgot to set the "%PATH%" variable.

 

I got it compiled and running on Nuance!

 

 

I'm able to edit the text to make it display something different, too!

 

Anyone know of any good programming tutorials so I can do more with this?

Hey, I recently got myself a Toshiba model Nuon, being a huge fan of 5th and 6th generation hardware (as those were the eras I grew up in), and I really like how quirky the whole thing is, and the mystery around everything they planned but never got around to implementing. Tempest 3000 is also an amazing game!

 

I've decided to get myself a Nuon N501 as well, to play and make homebrew for, and downloaded the SDK from Nuon Dome and decided to try it out on a Windows XP VM, and followed the docs to compile the hello-world demo, and it gave me a lot of compile errors out of the box. Anyone know what I might have done wrong?

Alright, thanks a lot!

["'xcopy' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file."]

Robocopy didn't work either, but copying the template folder manually did, and got the project building.

 

Would be nice to have a bat do this for me automatically, though. Is there a 3rd party program I can use instead of xcopy?

Hey, I'm trying to follow the RB+ tutorial and I'm getting this error when I try to make a new project:

The system cannot find the file specified.

I can't find anywhere to get xcopy on my computer.
What do I do?

 

I'm using Windows 7 64-bit. (Yes, still, I can't upgrade for reasons not relevant to this topic)

So does this mean you're essentially making new Jaguar+JagCD consoles? That is so cool! I am so excited to see this happening! 🤩
