Thankyou for correcting my error Tiido.

The standard MD specs are (I believe) as so:
320*224 screen,
15 colours for background 1, 15(+BGColour) colours for background 0,
15 colours for Sprite palette 0 and 15 colours for sprite palette 1.
These come from a 9-bit (512 colour) palette. Each channel (R,G and B) has 3bits, or 8 levels ...

Unless I missed something here, and you want to use 4bit specifically for some other reason (space/storage?).[/quote]

4 bit samples use less space than the 7 or 6 bit samples, I'd also hope to save some reasonable amount of cpu power for things such as sound effects and voices.

A single digital ...

Correct me if i'm wrong but, wouldn't it be easier to do a pseudo gradient of 8 (as to only use half of the bg 2 palette) or so colours that had been drawn 16 pixels high and dithered like so:

The palette is swapped mid ...

.Mod player, that's cool. From what I've heard very few games use polyphony on the 6th channel. However it may be possible with the use of 2x4-bit being mixed to 8-bit. The 68k has enough power to mix 8-bit samples. If I see a z80 driver (which is ...

Here's the .tfd, I'm unsure about the compressed format you mentioned, hopefully it works (I just removed the DAC data from the VGMM version).

(Put the link to .vgz instead of .tfd, that's fixed now)

Very nicely done, it'll be interesting to see where this goes
At one point the demo managed 7fps with 74 polygons on screen (some were only partially showing but I still counted them).
I can now provide the programmer with a .tfd (192 kilobits) or .vgz (24 kilobits) file of the Corneria theme from ...

I've heard and seen some MD games that supposedly play multiple pcm samples at once. Some games I've heard of include: Street Fighter 2 CE, Mortal Kombat 2 and 3, Mega Turrican and apparently Probotector MD does it too.

I'm interested in how this is achieved, ways such as using 4-bit samples ...

21'ish mhz 2x68000, 3'ish mhz Z80 (one 68k for special effects)
Composite output, system16 GPU
Ym2610+internal beeper, stereo
Cart
Keyboard or SNES controller
Sound good 'nuf?

Possibly a RISC or small transformation calculator on the cart. Or maybe just have an extra 68000 plug in the side to perform a similar function to say... the MegaCD.

Midi data can be converted to the .mod format, dispite being slightly tedious. All that is required is a tracker such as VGM music maker or TFM and Modplug tracker.
Import the Midi to Modplug and copy note data to a mod file open in a different tab. Be sure to use 2 times the patterns as in the midi ...

Hi, I'm a bit of a noob around here.
I'm just wondering if there is a way or even if it's possible to port Megadrive games to the 32x to take advantage of the larger colour palette and sprite transformations?
Games that could benefit include arcade games and 3d games like Space harrier 2.
