Fantastic, can't wait to give this a whirl!

I've updated the sjasm to the new location in the Makefile. Thanks for the heads up!

My Linux build toolchain that I think you are using, Zontar, is based off of ChillyWilly's and should have c++ support already built. I don't actually use C++ for Genesis development since it will be less efficient and lead to a larger file size, so I can't say how well this will work, but you ought...

Another update! Now obj2mesh supports the .mtl files! This allows for colors to be setup in Wings3d or other tools and automatically be loaded. This uses the diffuse color property (Kd) I've also updated the lighting so that colors are not wasted. Currently I set aside three colors, black, dark grey...

Fantastic, thanks for the information!

Doh, of course! It pays to read the descriptions, I must have glossed right over it.

So I seem to get very inaccurate results using the SGDK cos/sin tables. For instance this is what I see:

regular C function:
cos(180) = -0.593

SGDK function:
cosFix16(180) = 0.453

What's the deal with the different values?

I don't think I explained myself well. I'm not talking about gouraud shading. In SGDK starting with the cube_flat example, when rendering the polygon for flat shading each surface is drawn by first calculating the lighting, and indexing a color based on this lighting calculation. Then the BMP_drawPo...

So Stef, I notice that the BMP_drawPolygon function will always draw the polygons dithered. I'm wondering how I would go about changing this. I would like to be able retain more color choices but still some sort of lighting effect. Since the current lighting mechanism cycles through a number of colo...

That could be it, certainly. If you are using my linux setup, make sure you are using the files in sgdk/skeleton as the basis for the project.

I've made some improvements to the obj2mesh conversion program and the code to run files created with this. Obj2mesh now supports multiple polygons in the single file and calculates the center of the polygons. Polygons are now represented as a list of polygons that can be accessed for rendering, OR ...

Yeah, mod is working fine for me. Here's an example:

I've got modulus working fine with the Linux dev stuff, AFAICT. I'll try to do a minimal test when I get a second.

Was this added in a newer revision, perhaps? It's time to update the toolkit I think!

It's easy enough to alter the script to install a 64 bit OS and install BlastEm or other emulators. That's the beauty of Vagrantfiles! But even for this one, there is no need to run the emulator inside the VM. The directory that the Vagrantfile is on the host is mounted inside the VM at /vagrant. Th...
