Thanks so much, everyone. It makes sense now.

Good point about the presence of the binary operator not necessarily indicating a literal value, rainwarrior. I haven't considered the possibility of using a binary number for an address, so that's food for thought. Clears things up!

On the APU basics page of the NESDev wiki, there is some code that "plays a 400 Hz square wave (50% duty) at maximum volume: " jsr init_apu lda #<279 sta $4002 lda #>279 sta $4003 lda #%10111111 sta $4000 I know that #% is how you get the literal value for a binary number, and #$ is how you do that ...

As far as the constraints implemented in PICO-8 go, I think they were put there to make working in PICO-8 a design problem more than a platform for viable games as we might think of them. There are some pretty good little "carts" (this is what the PICO-8 calls its distributables), but they all feel ...

If your only reason to be here is to attack someone else, I hope you're banned so this nonsense can stop. I believe I speak for the majority when I say that WE DON'T GIVE A FUCK ABOUT WHAT PEOPLE DO OUTSIDE OF THE FORUMS AS LONG AS THEIR PARTICIPATION HERE DOESN'T OFFEND ANYONE. People are jackasse...

jon kricfalusi is a genius

oh, okay. yeah, it does. every time i press F8, it loads the state, but also automatically switches PPU mode one down. (for example, if i am in PAL and load a state, the state is loaded and the mode is switched to Hybrid. if i am in hybrid, the state is loaded and 'wraps around' to NTSC mode.)

had to google what fpga was. this is amazing. i try to collect as many of those old art matix mandlebrot/julia set videos as i can. mandlebrot set on nes possibility?

edit: want to restate that this is truly fucking awesome

ah, okay! thanks! is there a simple way i can stop that, or would it require surgery? i can revert to older versions, but i LOVE everything about my current version except for that little thing.

it's gonna be so hard to code the movement for all five spice girls at once, let alone the dynamic motion of n'sync

i started learning programming concepts at the same time i started learning asm (which is to say, totally from scratch) about a month and a week ago. because i have done it like this, i don't understand the terminology surrounding hex editing. what do you mean "building tables?" i can probably answe...

every time i load a state, the mode changes from ntsc, pal, or hybrid. anyone else getting this bug?

actually, it covers that pretty close to the top of the page

yours is more clear, though

nub question from total nub: are those fade outs done via code instructing pallette changes or via code instructing "saturation" changes in the ppu register? ..or is it something else totally?

do you know why the gg sets sound registers? and also, when you say megaman does not, do you mean that the code for megaman doesn't clear the sound registers habitually?
