what console should I develop for?

>>11055834
ColecoVision

>>11055834
depends what you want to make

>>11055834
Mega Drive. Best combination of being easy to develop for, having enough power to do most things, and having a large community of active developers to offer support.

There is no reason to develop for the SNES instead of the Mega Drive. That's why there are tons of new Mega Drive games and virtually zero new SNES games.

Not true, pic related. Mega Drive was actually better than SNES at bright and vivid colours.

Mega Drive actually had more channels, higher bit rate, and higher sample rate than SNES, so under the right talents it was capable of higher quality audio.

No, I don't believe it is. Get the fuck out and go console war elsewhere.

Ah, my mistake. It seems you were both console warriors after all and I should have taken my own advice and ignored the both of you.

>>11057089
Fuck off, you slimey tranny. No one was giving a flying fuck about muh console capabilities until you threw the first stone, targeting the one post mentioning the SNES as you always do.

>>11057112
>you threw the first stone, targeting the one post mentioning the SNES
Anyone who suggests the SNES as a viable homebrew development platform is doing so disingenuously, unless they also mention the OBJECTIVE FACT that it has worst hardware capabilities and is simultaneously much harder to develop for. This is why SNES homebrews are a trickle and barely existing, whilst Mega Drive homebrews have been thriving for decades. This is a relevant point to make for someone assessing development platforms. Sorry you don't like the truth when it doesn't fit you're narrative.

Oh yeah, that's prime console war faggotry. There's no such thing as something being unviable to develop for.
Report, Hide, Ignore.

>>11057872
I have a severe deficiency of vitamin needs likes and upvotes from tards anonymously

>>11057665
because I only care about the turbografx and there isn't a braindead easy way to get started like there is for other consoles

>>11058089
All you need to get started is a hex editor. Just start mapping out data offsets for text, graphics, code, etc.

>>11058285
But other consoles have disassemblers where I don’t have to do or know anything. The disassembler spits out assembly code and all I have to do is add comments and rename functions based on what I can bruteforce in a debugger.

>>11058285
No. That's not all he needs and not all you need. Let's put aside the part about how it's inconceivably stupid to not use better tools. You're simply incapable of doing that. Also, that's not disassembly. Seems you're actually incapable of understanding that a disassembly even is.
>>11058418
There are tools that do what you're asking for. But if you can't even find them, how do you imagine you're going to use them?

>>11058656
There are not those tools for turbografx. The best turbografx disassembler still requires a ton of manual effort to get to something that can be recompiled to a matching binary. For other platforms the initial disassembly is completely automated.

>>11058656
I didn't say it's all he needs, I said it's all he needs *to get started*. The reality is that "making a disassembly" is just as much about dealing with data as with assembly code. People who've never done it before probably lack an understanding of data representation in general, and need to develop it. Pull out a hex editor and throw a tile viewer alongside and now you have three representations. My first step when looking at a new game is always to first map out any big blocks of text and graphics using those tools, narrowing down what actually needs to be disassembled. The text gives me a hook, if there's an in-game event I'm interested in the code for I can find the text first and then set a watchpoint there in the debugger to get a stackdump as the code prints it. For a more arcadey game with less text I would probably do a cheat/RAM search instead to find a variable to set a watchpoint on.
>>11058976
I don't know what platforms you're thinking of where disassembler output can be recompiled to a matching ROM without any manual fixups. Maybe things have changed but automated full-game disassemblers always seemed kind of shit. Especially for platforms with 8-bit instructions they tend to get confused by data, whether it's inline or in separate blocks, and require tons of manual correction to fix. Disassembling even at most a bank/page at a time is always going to require going in later with a debugger and fixing things up. Without a decent debugging emulator it would certainly be more painful.

>>11059512
Gameboy disassembly is piss easy. There are emulators that spit out all of the addresses for data and code and the disassembler sorts it all out for you. Literally all you need to do at the end is add comments and rename functions. It’s trivially easy as far as disassembly projects go. I can’t comment on other systems.

It's a 65C02 machine, it's not an uncommon processor, tools exist, but what you'd really need to make your life not a living hell is an emulator with a step through debugger and an assembler with label support. pic related.
Mesen is wondeful for dev and debugging and Sour is adding support for more systems lately so there is hope!
>>11058285
> All you need is a hex editor.
I mean you could do calculus with a paper and pencil too, you're not wrong, but good god without a disassembler and step thru debugger you're making an already ridiculously long and tedious task that much longer and that much more ridiculous

>>11057665
> Why haven't you started a disassembly of your favorite game, anon?
I have started a few actually, but, i've only disassembled and labeled whatever code and memory i need for a given project. Anything more than that is too much work and doesn't interest me long enough to complete.
I have a hard enough time finishing projects as it is...

>>11058976
Are you actually arguing that tools for disassembling a mario game don't exist for a system that game doesn't exist for?
>>11059512
>to get started
My bad, I just assumed that meant to get started with "making a disassembly". All a hex editor will get him started with is asking "what am I even looking at?" He'll never get to the mapping out data because he lacks what's fundamentally required to get started. A brain larger than a walnut.

>>11059832
>It's a 65C02 machine
It's not. It's one thing to make that simplification in casual conversation. Doing it in a discussion about making a disassembly indicates an acute lack of understanding of the subject.

>>11059832
Does WLA-DX support labels?

>>11060010
> TG16 isn't 65C02
thought it was a 65C02 with a couple extra custom opcodes? educate me
>>11060037
> Does WLA-DX support labels?
yes, and WLA-DX is wonderful in that it supports a bunch of systems, but the labels are a bit ...lacking and barebones compared to specific assembler solutions for a specific console like ASM6F / NES. i've wrote a powershell script to convert the generated .SYM file to .MLB and import them into Mesen, which works well enough for marking ROM addresses, but .SYM doesn't extend into marking regsiters, RAM locations, or comments. ...as far as i know anyway, i don't know everything and won't pretend to.
WLA-DX's killer feature is the .BACKGROUND directive, which allows you to hotpatch code on top of an existing ROM file, so every time you make changes to a romhack you can apply it directly on top of a fresh ROM.

>>11060064
>thought it was a 65C02 with a couple extra custom opcodes? educate me
Start by counting the empty squares on the opcode matrix for each?
There are more than just a couple that are merely nice additions that probably should have been there in the 6502. There are as many again that are used for a whole new set of features for dealing with memory banking and transfers.

>>11060064
The HuC6280 is a Rockwell 65C02 derivative with slight changes, additional opcodes and a relocated zero page/stack. For the opcodes, your starting point should be the matrix at: https://www.chrismcovell.com/PCEdev/HuC6280_opcodes.html

>>11060251
> opcode matrix
ah yeah lets see, bytecode matrix matches up with 6502 / 65C02, they are similar for sure, what have we here...
> swap registers
nifty, the gameboy added that too compared to the original Z80
> test bits
good addition, you're limited to BIT testing memory only with the original 6502
> branch subroutine
cool i guess, saves a step
> clear registers
neat but kind of unnecessary, saves a byte from LD_ #$0
> transfer block
HUGE addition. the SNES has this too. DMA transfers save a bunch of time.
> memory bankswitching
Nice that it's built in instead of in the cartridges like the NES
> verdict
yeah i could see these new instructions being used enough that 65C02 decomp tools would struggle and get misaligned easily, you could use them in theory and just watch out for the x2, x3 and x4 rows.
i totally agree that these are smart and clever additions to the instruction set, and would just make coding for it a bit faster and a touch more elegant than the '02 or the 'C02.

>>11060296
>> branch subroutine
>cool i guess, saves a step
saves a byte but adds a cycle, not all that useful in practice
>> transfer block
>HUGE addition.
you need to be careful as the transfer blocks IRQs until it is complete

>>11060296
>> swap registers
>nifty, the gameboy added that too compared to the original Z80
I hate to be that guy, but the GB CPU doesn't have a second register set. That's a Z80 thing. All the GB's swap instruction does is swap the high and low nibbles of the accumulator and nothing more.

I love seeing tutorial vods. When i started NES romhacking and dev years ago, the youtube videos were basically non existent. Now there are tons of them and it's a wonderful thing. I wish i had resources like this when i was doing Nerdy Nights, combing though NESdev posts, ancient documents and wikis to scrounge whatever i could when i needed and try to get it straight in my head. It is sooooo much easier now to get started and it's truly wonderful.
> y u no post game
Plenty of people are and have posted games and romhacks they have made or are making on here. Posting tutorial vods like these might lead to someone making their own SNES game with C / pvSNESlib. /hbg/ should absolutely be a place where we post video tutorials, especially new ones like these, because they are valuable. pvSNESlib has made huge strides lately and i love seeing the state of the art of making SNES games, especially because the system has been historically difficult to develop for and the SNES hardware features can be a real bitch to wrap your head around.
The RGMX SNES series really helped me a ton understanding the archtecture, and i've referred to it tons of times times when romhacking.

asbsolutely fuckin based. i have a GD-EMU dreamcast optical drive emulator i haven't gotten around to installing yet and when this gets released i am absolutely solderin that baby in for the occasion.

Been playing through a pack of homebrew GB games and got to The Machine yesterday. I've had a lot of fun with it, it's a lot like Way of the Samurai on the PS2 in that you get plopped into the world and the paths you take branch in all sorts of ways. The game is short and divided into 3 main chapters, and you're expected to replay it several times to see everything. For example, my playthroughs went like:

Failed the placement exam, had to take a lower class job. Became a policeman and brutalized the lower class, became crooked and a fixer for a crime boss, helped rig an election and then assassinate a candidate. Got promoted to detective on the force to help cover up a murder, and finally took over the mob after the boss got killed for pissing someone off (who I was ironically promoted to detective for to fail to solve).

Failed the placement exam, took a job in a factory. Got fooled into working hard to stand out which raised our quota, started a union because of it. Campaigned for the commies, they got tons of support and their candidate was assassinated. Had the police beat us up for going on strike, which got out to the news media and caused MaWA party's popularity to shoot through the roof and win the election. Joined a rebel militia after the police tried to do a coop, got a dictator in power that executed all of the old guard and then started killing his allies out of paranoia.

Passed the placement exam, joined the glowies in the MSS. Started downvoting and upvoting posts so users wouldn't see dissenting content on websites. Manipulated the stock market to make stupid amounts of money for the government. Eventually ran for political office for the VULF party, won the chancellorship, got killed in a coop by politicians in my own party.

Every playthrough gives you more answers to the placement exam at start, so eventually you'll learn all of them.

>>11066661
Aced the entrance exam, joined the MSS again. This time, I quit my job and joined the nerds at the lab early on in my career, got to manipulate the human genome to make super soldiers. An AI robot tried to convince me to free him, but I kept him locked up. Got questioned for the murder of my boss, then joined the rebel militia when I was implicated as a suspect by the detective. Fought our way through The Machine to the top again, but this time the rebel leader was wounded in combat and died before become dictator. I became dictator in his place and largely did the same thing, stopping at executing my allies.

Went to go be a cop again, this time played it straight. Refused to beat up dissidents and arrest them for frivolous things, didn't go corrupt. MaWA lost the election and a riot broke out, so I became a riot cop and had to gun down rebels. The Machine became a hellhole after that with dissidents rounded up under false pretense and forced into slave labor.

The person who made this also made the Metal Slug 2 hack that removes the slowdown. Hope they keep making cool shit like this, playing RSG with the new combo of scoring systems is really fu

Great, I look forward to seeing any proof whatsoever that this is running on an actual SNES. Until then, you're all gullible morons.

This might have something to do with it, but the way he says that at the end of his video implies he doesn't want trouble from nosey Nintendo.

>>11079190
>how long is you game?
Right now the time counter of the current save says 13 hours, but it doesn't include all of what I've made.
I'd like to release it next year with two chapters (like 20 hours).
>what are your plans for distribution?
Free ROM on itch.io.

>>11055448
how do i play the OP image?
Even if its just a 5 second cutscene, i wanna run it in an emulator and give it a try.

>>11080045
I don't believe he's released any sort of playable build yet.

The DS has a file system similar to disc games which can be opened, extracted and inserted with Tinke. There's more info on gbatemp and no$gba's site.

Thanks for the info

This guy is using multiplexing like on the c64 to reused sprites to show more than the hardware supports on sega genesis. While the screen is being drawn the vdp is busy so you can't update except in h blank where you can send some commands. In most released games it would cause pixel glitches like in sonic but he says if you only update 3 colours or a small amount of data it won't cause glitches.

>>when there were 2 perfectly good uncompressed sets laying around in the ROM
what moron company made this game?

>>11055448
hey anons, i am currently coding a move sequence/combo system for wwf no mercy for the n64. it works like this:

>if a wrestler is able to pull off a specific combination of signature moves/taunts, the player is rewarded with a chance to end the match and win.

long story short, these combos can give huge amounts of spirit to put the player in special, they can award infinite special, they can deal 50 (max) limb damage on submissions to always and instantly end the match (a final submission cannot be broken up either), things like that.

the idea is to make the game a bit more "realistic" by basically allowing a guy to job for 10 minutes, then nail five moves in a row, then hit a finisher (and only ONE finisher) and win.

if anyone has any interest, i can go into more detail (like...a lot...) or even show vids demonstrating this. theres a chance someone will steal it for the upcoming (yeah right lol) ultra pro wrestling.

Any Pokemon ROMhacks that change the Battle Frontier in Emerald or DPPt significantly? Don't want to go to /vp/ or reddit because I don't trust them.

I think this this is the best homebrew I've ever played. Truly raises the bar for Gameboy

>>11083542
Iirc emerald does have a bunch of hacks that do that, not sure about the others.

Where can I purchase programmable nintendo 64 cartridge boards and shells to put my own homebrews on for cheap? Can't find anything proper on Chinese wholesale sites.

Thank yooooou

>>11086169
Retrostage for quality, you don't want the Chinese crap that breaks in two months (though at least there aren't voltage issues like on older consoles, N64 is 3v).

Another issue is the save type, EEPROMs are Nintendo specific parts which the chinks will run out of at some point. The simplest boards naturally have no save, and your stuff would need to use the controller pak.
