It's just missing the rest... ING LEAGUE.

Yep, that works perfectly and may be best.
The other approach, which is what I meant, is a nested loop. 2 counters, one you count up to #ff. When it reaches that point you inc the second counter and compare it to 4.

Have a secondary counter, add 1 to that every time the first one reaches #ff and keep reading and writing until it reaches 4. Or... You could do something different. Make sure your data never has a certain value, for example "FF", except at the very end. Whenever you read "FF", that's the end and yo...

It could be that I'm sleepy right now, but doesn't this mean that you've only looped through less than 256 tiles? For an entire screen you need more than that, about 4x that many.

I'd call that a horizontal split instead, as in, horizontally oriented split.

I proposed something similar for mesen, I think. We really need something like that!

Amazing!!

If he ever reads this, or anyone else: please release source codes if you have them (and if you can). It is ALWAYS welcome!

Macbee has made some demos using the full NES resolution, but made it so graphics optimized for widescreen, so it will look good on wide displays, but will appear stretched if viewed on 4:3 screens. I believe his new PC game Skatemasta Tcheco follows this rule. https://twitter.com/tchecoforevis/stat...

I agree with knight0fdragon. For changes like that, it might end up cheaper to rewrite the entire game. Compared to tracking down and fixing a bug in a rom??! I can't think of any situation where that might be true. When the bug is the game's engine itself, reverse engineering the engine from byte ...

Infamy of a game is another way to get someone interested in tearing it apart to mod out its faults. Infamy led to a quality-of-life patch for E.T. for Atari 2600 in early 2013.

Yeah, you tell me

Money is another way, but it may be expensive for exactly the reasons you've listed.

It all depends on how the text is delivered. A transcript is only part of the message. I want to watch it before coming to a conclusion. And this is only a small part of the whole ordeal. I want to know why suddenly it's become okay to overpromise and underdeliver. Just because it's done that's no r...

Was I wrong to take a job at Retrotainment Games? I don't think so, they are very nice people. About the movie, I didn't think the transcript was too insulting, but it did imply a few things for example when he explained what new nerds are now and that you are not one of those. I'm curious to see i...

I really like Bananmos analysis. Maybe I'm being too harsh. But maybe I'm exagerating a little just to get people to notice it isn't all flowers and rainbows. @Skrotebag: wow, now you got me interested to watch it. That sounds bad. Especially with the free advertising in the front page of nesdev.com...
