Re: Gunstar Heros disassembly?
...GNU GAS has very good documentation going back all the way to the late 1980s and good support too. Interesting. Seems that GNU GAS's executable is also known as "AS", apparently a legacy from Unix. Wonder why the author of this "Macro Assembler AS" I linked to decided to also use the name "AS".....

Re: Mega Marble World
Feels like 1993 all over again!
Really cool! I hope it turns out as good as it looks!

Re: Gunstar Heros disassembly?
I've given up on whatever the hacked assembler AS.exe is with the sonicretro assemblies, and switched to ASM68 now (oddly, the VASM site appears down over the last couple of days, seems back now though). It's nice to have some actual documentation on the assembler now. :) I wonder if this is the as...

Re: First Post and a Thank You
I just finished a very simple but functioning microtonal sequencer/performance tool that I got to work on my Model 1 with my old Tototek flash cart. I got kickstarted on the programming side by MarkeyJester's 68k Tutorial and the Big Evil Corporation blog but for all my YM2612 info I just wanted to...

Looks really cool! I'm glad you showed it running on several different Genesis models. It's neat to see. Good work on this demo!

Re: Are there any good/elaborate ASM tutorials around?
I haven't seen links to this resource on spritesmind yet, so here you go: Hugues Johnson's Programming Articles Hugues is a veteran programmer who is new to Genesis dev. He only has a few tutorials up so far, but I think they are useful, and I hope he makes more. Scroll down the page to get to the G...

Re: Noob questions: is playback of multiple, simultaneous samples (samples polyphony) possible on the Genesis?
OK, so we're not "multitasking" / rapidly switching between 4 samples, we're mixing (summing?) 4 samples together "in software" and then playing the mixed signal over the one hardware DAC channel, FM6? Yep. And heck, when hardware supports multiple channels, it's literally doing exactly that as wel...

Re: Problems accessing Spritesmind
All of a sudden, the problem went away and I can access Spritesmind as usual. I didn't even have to contact my ISP. Odd business! But at least it's over.

Re: Noob questions: is playback of multiple, simultaneous samples (samples polyphony) possible on the Genesis?
Software mixing is done by using buffering... So you read out a portion of PCM#1, store it inside a buffer, read a portion of PCM#2 then mix it with PCM#1.. and so on until you're done with all four PCM samples. Then you take the mixed result and sent it to FM6. OK, so we're not "multitasking" / ra...
