Thank you very much for your answer, so in this case how should I start to learn to change the music from scratch in the megaman 4 nes rom? I have several documents but I need to know how to start learning in order to change them. It's not an easy task. You must create an environment for editing 65...

The error of counting cycles, plus the wrong assignment of number of cycles (a cycle table to be exact) while the CPU is running. Needless to say, but for each CPU read/write, the PPU runs for 3 cycles in NTSC mode. Depending on the addressing mode, as Q said, the instruction will take a certain amo...

It's how you adjust a ruler over the timeline of events. I have no problems in my emulator even if I don't set my PPU timing as precisely as +1 or -1 "idle cycle". Why? Because the "inner works" (CPU instruction level, flags) are more complex than anything else.

If you want to emulate the NTSC NES at exactly 60Hz and have accurate timing, then you'll need to slow the CPU down to 1.78683MHz. Let me rephrase my question. I want to know how to limit 60 FPS in a loop. If you have a situation where the emulated system is 60Hz, and your display is 60Hz, using an...

What are you trying to solve by using an arbitrary 60Hz that isn't locked to the screen, instead of using whatever the screen is locked to? What do you mean?? Well, once a game frame is rendered by the PPU (the 256x240 image), it calls a function to control the refresh rate. Usually, vsync() works ...

Ages ago , I asked about 60hz framerate with Allegro's timer . Some machines do, but mine don't (for some unknown reason, it locks at 50hz). So, I ended up using Allegro's vsync() until today. I've found here another way of creating a 60hz refresh rate. It worked, but I noted a problem when the gam...

Awesome!

New version today.

Hi! I'm curious about examining some source code of some existing emulator written in my favorite programming language. Therefore I plan to do quick research to check whether there is source code available for emulators that you enlisted in the wiki, I'm also going to check what are programming lan...

according to which site? that color is much more what $08 looks like on my tv.. but every "accurate" emulator and lcd display includes way more green Again? https://www.colorhexa.com/808000 where are these RGB values coming from? Who says $08 is 523000? What does 808000 have to do with anything? Yo...

Color $08 according to this site:
RGB #523000 color description : Very dark orange [Brown tone].

according to which site? that color is much more what $08 looks like on my tv.. but every "accurate" emulator and lcd display includes way more green

Again?

Color $08 is NOT olive, since the color tones (or shades) have blue, a green value nearby the blue value, and high red. I tested 3 NES palettes, and they don't bring blue (value $00). Red and green are very nearby, which doesn't match the olive tones. Look at the image below. https://i.ibb.co/K7q2Yw...

Ouch.

Why do you have that >>10 there?

Access to the nametables 0, 1, 2, 3 (2000h, 2400h, 2800h, 2C00h) - mirroring.
The value is ANDed with 3, but is this correct?

Hello folks. 1. I'm aware of this previous topic , but it's not crystal clear to me. 2. Yup, my emulator is getting error #6 on Blargg's vram_test (Palette read should also read VRAM into read buffer). So, where's the problem here? tempaddr=ppu_address&0x3FFF; _clock_2007(); if(tempaddr >= 0x3F00) {...
