Someday there will be a VGM_resumePlay (); ...... xD

Perhaps, what do you mean exactly?

Yes! This is a drop in replacement for the existing vgm driver in sgdk. I have a patch against sound.c as well that will add the sound effects playback. I'll post it when I get back from work this evening.

Yeah, sorry I wasn't clear. With the old VGM formats for PCM your first did a 0xE0 followed by a location into PCM memory, then you followed it with 0x80-0x8F where the first nibble says to play one PCM byte and the second is how many samples to wait. 1.6 added the ability to just enable playing the...

Some notes on the tracks chosen: Green Hill Zone - A 1.6 VGM track with PCM samples that are referenced by 0x9n style calls. ToeJam Slowjam - A 1.5 VGM track that starts out without PCM samples, but uses channel 6 for part of the music. Sound effect must return the state of channel 6 after finishing...

I've been updating the z80 VGM driver to be a bit faster and add some new features. Just so you guys don't think I've forgotten about the project, here is a quick demo of what I have. https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B7gb_Cj7kCN7YzExd0FtRVhLYVk/edit?usp=sharing This is quite a bit more efficient tha...

Especially if someone creates a commercial product out of it.

I don't think using SGDK for a commercial product would be a good idea anyways, since it is GPL licensed.

I love my 1st party wireless Genesis controllers. I think they are the best compromise between the original 3 button and the tiny 6 button controller. It is super annoying whenever my cat gets in the line of site, however. I think it would be neat to retrofit these with some kind of bluetooth connec...

I would love to eventually get to play JB Harold Blue Chicago Blue. AFAIK, the MegaLD version is the only english version of this.

But at some point i wanted to have a tool which can used on unix system too

Awesome, us *nix folks appreciate the tools. I started to port Genres to Linux at some point and got pretty far along, before I decided to find other solutions.

Also @Kubilus1, on a sidenote, will the new VGM player support VGM v1.50 files without the 0x9x opcodes for streaming? @TechnoZealot. Yes! v1.50 (0x8n) style PCM is a feature of the updated VGM driver I am working on! So far this will be limited to 8khz or lower samples. However, there is still a b...

Use python to write an XM file parser that can spit out files compatible with other formats!

Stef has a 4 channel PCM player that runs on the z80 and plays 16khz files in SGDK. This uses the just the one FM channel. The mixing macro consists of the following: ; doEnvAndMix ; = 35 --> 49 cycles macro doEnvAndMix LD A, (BC) ; compute volume ' 7 | ADD (HL) ; mix ' 7 | 24 JP PO, .ok ; check ove...

Is it possible to repost the VGZ of the Corneria theme? I'm working on the VGM driver and want to throw as many things at it that I can. Thanks!

Is there a program in which he can compose music that then can be saved in a format which I can load into the project and play with just a few lines of code? There is more than one way to do this, but personally I like Deflemask. It is reasonably intuitive and allows composing Genesis specific (and...

I've been working on setting up a decent Genesis development toolchain. The thing is, there is definitely not just one way to go about this. A lot of it comes down to personal preference and where your experience lies. I more or less do the following: * Basic framework - I use Linux and SGDK for the...
