I think its more about how small the menu items are combined at the faster speed which makes it difficult, as well as the next/prev buttons, those are kinda awkward honestly

Could you elaborate? I don't find the mouse to be particularly difficult to use in the existing menu. The reason probably is that my mouse has a very varying DPI settings, and I usually use large DPI's. I've gotten used to it and it mostly works fine, I can move my mouse around much faster than nor...

It should remember the folder within a single run of the program (press Esc to go back to the menu after you've loaded a ROM), though it won't remember what page you're on in a long list of files. The folder it starts in on a fresh run of the emulator is configurable by changing the initial_path op...

I've heard a lot of good about BlastEm, so I just checked it out of curiosity. I've got to say, I am a little disappointed by what I've seen so far. Let me explain; The biggest gripe for me is the menu. It seems like you cant just drop in ROMs, and navigating the menu is terrible. Especially because...

looks interesting enough, I may have a go for Finnish. I have to warn though; Static systems where you just replace the phrases/words dont often work well, especially for humour, puns, jokes and references. Ideally, translations would happen as the game is bding built. Are there any helpful doc on a...

In interlace mode 2, the range is & 0x3FF, but in interlace mode 0 or 1, its 0x1FF
The document doesn't say it properly, but its actually either 8 or 9 bits, depending on interlace mode.

also it can be very useful for something like this; .cloop tst.b (a1)+ ; check if entry is null seq d2 ; if is, set d2 to $FF add.b d2,d3 ; and then subtract 1 from total count if so dbf d1,.cloop ; loop til all cards are checked Over branching conditionally, this actually saves 4 cycles per loop. Q...

What I did was, I set the C# code to transfer the entire file at once. 68K side I just kept in a loop reading the data, but I could get it to never sync, and from what I remember it never was able to keep up with the Z80 playback. I also remember that I had issues actually being able to read enough ...

Could always put at Y = 0 instead =P

I just now realized this is true... So technically this hack in Sonic games shouldn't be needed! I'll go test few things, be back to you with results.

Apparently this happens on the damn title screen. That's mildly stupid...

Sprite masking. When there is a sprite with X=0, the lines are masked and no sprite will show up there. This should apply to both of these sprites however, I do not understand why it doesn't. The fix? If X=0, add 1 to X. This will in some rare cases offset sprites but it will work just fine. Make su...

I dont know which of these are faster, but I thought to share this anyway, in case someone finds it helpful; ; =========================================================================== ; Routine to translate an integer to null-terminated decimal string ; input: ; d0.l - integer ; d1 - number of di...

Awesome, thank you! The point of getting the ROM was not to play it, but to verify a few things, and if needed, extract the machine code out of it.

Then you try to optimize and find that unrolling loops is an effective method for doing that. But hey, one good tip I can give you is... Use macros if possible. You can have a piece of code a million times, and still one change affects all of it, Really quite useful for gaining both speed, and yet e...

Yeah, I was not quite sure so I went with what the dumps say. However it seems really apparent they are not related. As far as that doc, I had a look at it earlier, but I can't confirm it is correct, and I can't therefore also create a test ROM to use without the keyboard, which is why I'd like to h...
