Okay, I need someone with an actual 32X to test this. On my own 32X, I have this issue where if the 68000 tries to read from ROM addresses 0x210000, 0x210001, or anywhere in 0x2130D0-0x2130DF (basically, 0x910000, 0x910001, 0x9130D0-0x913D0F with the bank set to 2), something else gets read, and the ...

Does the RV flag get reset on a soft reset or nah? I tried testing it myself, and it seems it doesn't. Keeping it set during a soft reset would not work out so well, since the internal vector table is still mapped and would cause the 68000 to jump to the 32X cartridge area, which isn't mapped due to ...

Thanks. Damn MCD manual's weird wording/mistranslations...

This is really confusing me. Would anyone here happen to know why the MCD manual states that the Z80 cannot access the PSG, let alone apparently anything related to the Genesis 68000 when the MCD is running?

A while ago, I made a Python plugin for Blender that enabled SVP model support + a rendering engine. It's not fully complete, as I never figured out how it handled Z-sorting (there's some kind of flag for each polygon in the model data that messes with it), and the rendering engine is ...

As mentioned in this thread , I have made my own Mega CD version of everyone's favorite 2hu video , Bad Apple!! May as well share it here, because why not.

Unlike the Cinepak version that was released some time ago, this uses a custom made codec. It packs 4 256x224 1BPP frames into 1 4BPP frame ...

So, I've managed to get rotation to work, but I have one more problem: it's not centered. Right now, I have the start X and Ys use the standard rotation algorithm and I have the deltas be the cosine and sine of the angle. I am not sure how I would put centering into the equation.

EDIT: Solved, I ...

Ah, so it's as simple as that. Thanks!

BigEvilCorporation: Basically, I've written a "fake layer" generator that takes 1 layer of art, shifts it a certain amount of pixels, then overlays it with another layer of art. It generates the data, then DMA's it to VRAM. I have received some help optimizing it, and while it's at the point where ...

The only emulator I got the ROM to load in was Genesis Plus GX (by changing the header to make it detect the ROM properly >:P), but as Jorge said, there were issues with it. Graphics glitch up and the music hanged after a while. (I was surprised to see the 3D segments (like full 3D) work perfectly ...

Title speaks for itself. I do know some basic 68000 speed optimizations, but I wonder what other kinds of optimizations I can make to really speed up my programs.

I saw it live, and all I have to say is... "fucking beautiful". Other than that, I am speechless.

While reading through the documentation, I noticed there was a "Full Graphics Function" for the ASIC chip that allows you to input a bitmap from the MCD side and the MD side can read it as tiles, while in 1M/1M mode.

I'm not quite sure how I could perform this. Is it just that you put in the data ...

I was just using a Sonic 1 disassembly for a base to do it on (mainly because I was too lazy to make a basic homebrew base at the time XP), but I guess another reason is to show that I can implement this into a ROM that's not Virtua Racing.

I have more info on how command 6 works with its camera and stuff for rendering art.

The first model slot is the camera. In this slot, you can load the world map model. The second model slot is a normal model, but with 1 difference. The camera follows that model, so when you move that model, the ...
