@drag Notepad++ is in no way an IDE but is a nice text editor with syntax highlighting, which make it more useful than using notepad. Once you get to use a proper ide (and VSCode is technically not an ide but some editor with a lot of functionality to it, well, now almost an ide), notepad++ is less ...

What advantages does VS code have over Notepad++ ? Well, it depends on your need. With VSCode, one advantage is that it can be used on multiple platform (win/mac/linux) with exactly the same plugin. This was a huge thing for me. You have a lot of plugin that allow syntax highlighting for multiple l...

Why would coding in C only be for very small games?

I think the reason he said but he can correct me later is if you use only C and something like neslib you will be limited after a while compared to someone who can add some code in asm to improve performance. Seen that way, it make sense.

What's the poitn of making a port/demo if it skips the problematic areas ? In my opinion the "problamatic areas" are the only part who are interesting to port on the NES... the rest would basically just be copy/past work and would be totally ininteresting. Because my goal as never been to port the ...

Like Nesrock said (and you are aware of it too), I have been working on it until last year but due to some personal events, I'm not able to put as much time as before and had to put it on hold. This doesn't mean the project is dropped, just that I cannot work on it as much as I did. The intro is fin...

I miss the old color style. For me, after all those years, this doesn't look like the nesdev site anymore and I have a hard time with that. Links,I can adjust to location but the colors is what gave it charms. Now it's like if I'm reading some random forum and my interest in dwindling. That's how mu...

@Rainwarrior There is nothing wrong for the wiki to be "private", in the sense that only regular members of nesdev can make post on it. Why is it so difficult to understand... I don't know :lol: It's not like it takes forever with a small community to know if a member is really here for contributing...

@Begalad It may have been "better" before (for me, any spam is not ok but that's just me and my OCD :lol:) but I knew that it was heading that way with how the internet evolve with time so the right way was to make it simper for people to make accounts on it, not allow random post to be done since n...

Always cool to see that you have some new homebrew coming out ;) Didn't have time to try it yet but will dou it later. edit: I decided to give it a quick spin and it's nice in general but I have a hard time to avoid the enemies :lol: Since there is no way to run with some velocity, it's hard to some...

Like I mentioned in, hmmm, ~2009 when I first moved the wiki and forced non anonymous edit (and no post for new users but forgot about that one).... Nesdev is a niche community that the chance an anonymous edit will bring the "holy grail" of new information is close to none. If you still think other...

My eyes! :lol: Jokes aside WhoaMan is BACK!! Why people didn't react to that, I can't wrap my head around that ^-^;;; I'm just happy to know that you have shown a sign of life and that you seems well. As for the style.. Yeah. It's suck but that something that should be fixable with time. I'm so used...

Does that means that they already folded after more or less 1 year? I Cannot find much on the web either ^-^;;;

Hmmm.... I have been talking about "that" game a lot on some French discord recently and first: - it was never released - the author is missing in action - people are still waiting for it but not expecting to come out so I have no idea what you are expecting by buying a cart like that on aliexpress ...

I didn't know about that It must have happened when I was less active on nesdev so I didn't know about him. That's was quite messy what he did ^-^;;;

Thanks for everyone comments! I will let him no about everyone's opinion. Hopefully it won't be necessary to do it that way but that is a last resort to get a few nes cart released.
