Hi guys! I was having a look at Fonzie's "The VDP in 16 Pics" when I noticed about a "supposed" free-to-use 128 tile area I didn't know about: http://s8.postimg.org/5729pyd91/pic_b.gif That discovery made my day... for a while. I made a quick test ... writing over that area brought no problem at all...

Hi again.

In the end a friend came out with a simpler solution even though it makes things trickier in the way later optimization becomes a must.

Activating line scroll.

Source code and rom (free to use).

Codeblcoks project (src+bin)
Only rom

Thanks to doragasu for the solution.

You're welcome.

I didn't bother about credit myself, but well... realbrucest in that case

Any sexy screenshots or bin downloads to go with the example code?

As talked to Stef at "parallax tearing thread" here's my little demo about "spotlights effects" written for SGDK and (attempted to be) translated to English: /****************************************************************************** DEMO TEST SPOTLIGHT EFFECT (LINE SCROLL + SHADOW MODE) *******...

And now thanks a lot to you Stef. I still need to do some research about that because I'm still a newbie, but there's more I know already and next steps should be much easier now. I'm also so glad in case I can contribute to sgdk. I've spotted a few other tiny unimportant mistakes among code comment...

Thanks djcouchycouch for taking the time, but I'm not quite sure about that. Maybe I'm missing something else or doing something wrong. Fact is that I took the trouble of filling my core with VDP_waitVSync() just for the sake of testing and I couldn't get rid of that tearing effect. :cry: By any cha...

(WIP) Image to tileset webapp Hi guys, I've started to code an HTML5+Javascript app to transform a frame into several sprites and then converting the lot to to C data code. Something similar to what imagenesis already does but getting focus a litte bit more on dealing with multi-sprite characters. I...

Thanks to you guys for keeping this great community rolling. Now I have no access to the Windows PC I was using for coding DynamiteDan (and less free time and some other business) but there is one importat thing I actually can do: I know I MUST start translating all Spanish stuff to English. I'll tr...

I guess it's bad habit brought from old msdos vga coding days. I started to do this stuff on megadrive with no idea about how to do things, as a learning project mainly. Now I know I could make a few things simpler and easier. I also thought that "porting" an old school 8 bit platform game would be ...

Hi everyone, a few months ago I started to play around with sgdk. One guy was looking for a programmer (I'm not but...) to try a port of Dynamite Dan, Spectrum version. Those days I had plenty of time and this is what I achieved: https://sites.google.com/site/emigrantebruce/Home/DDANMD-alpha01.bin I...
