Yeah, I figure it's that simple. I'm a step before that, though. Where in memory are the CHR banks to set up in the first place? I guess that was the crux of my question.
Thanks, friend! |

| Hey all! Project is winding down. Starting to add some unplanned *flair*. Figured I'd try my hand at injecting some animated background tiles, since I'm using UnRom512 and the mapper supports chr ram bankswitching. But I'm running against a void in my conceptual understanding, I guess. The game uses... |

| Thank god. Thanks for the bug report! It actually drew my attention to another potential problem that I fixed while I was at it. Now, there seems to be only one lingering *bug* that I can't track down, and that's random instances of hurt cycle going on forever. That'll be next, after I do some memor... |

| I'd be curious to know if this patch fixes the problem? I fixed one or two of the other bugs here, so memory addresses may be slightly different, but in the same general area. I did cap that lookup with a bcc in stead of an equivocation...I guess it's possible multiple inputs were being pressed in t... |

| Yeah - what you're describing makes sense if y continues to increase passed 8 (which it should behard limted at) as the entered song pattern is an 8 byte array...and beyond that it's be messing with overwriting other variables. And the player changing color and losing melee is likely a change to the... |

| Rainwarrior - I did find an anomaly in the music play mode...I WAS restarting the index at zero, but after 9 notes instead of after 8...for whatever reason. Odd. But anyway, I tried to get the bug you found to happen...but never got it to happen. Question - did this ONLY happen when you futzed aroun... |

| Tokumaru - thanks man. That means a lot. I knew NOTHING when I started this. You, Kasumi, Rainwarrior and a few others helped me go light years beyond where I could've expected taking this. It's to the point where now, I feel like I can do any thing at all I want to...it's just a matter of what I ca... |

| What I do find to be great is how much growth I've seen in the community just since I've started this. Three years ago, when I started poking around asking people about homebrew and post market development and whatnot, the average person (even retro-game-lover) had no idea what I was talking about. ... |

| Tokumaru - it's completely true. They have nothing financially to gain. But what they're going to lose with the next generation is that connection they had with the 8 year old kids who are now 30, showing those games to their kids. The thing that opening this up might do is create brand identificati... |

| Thanks Erockbrox! And we'd love to have your feedback. We've started a thread in the discussion group there with some of the known bugs that we'll be patching this week. That feedback is invaluable, but also love to know about your experience with the game overall rather than having folks dive in lo... |

| Helps a ton. I'm going to investigate. I will check out the file in the morning from my computer with FCEUX on it. This ALWAYS happens from music playing mode, though, correct? If so, I believe it is what I described and I'll certainly look into this one tomorrow! |

| Huh. So strange! Curious - were you bashing notes then hitting the Start button? Did it happen on a Start button press? That would at least make sense...that maybe it tried to read the pattern and did something anomalous. Alternatively, possibly I don't reset after 8 values...I thought I did, but ma... |

We have a sort of manual that explains things a bit better in a few cases (like the being able to play... |
