Assuming progress on his hack continues as normal (IE goes on for awhile then gets reset, repeat indefinitely) somehow I doubt this will be a problem for him.

It never gets reset... there are some periods I take a break from continuing it, but there's always sorta progress on it...

@knuck, you're being rude, so stfu...

@JJ, sorry, but I rather thought of something thinner and more readable than SMW's original font... although yours looks good, I can't imagine myself reading a 20 lines monologue written in this...

@cpubasic13, I might or might not release a function-reduced version with the next demo of ALttP already...

This one is quite nice, actually... can I have it in a gfx file (those with a .bin as an extension^^)?

Thanks in advance,

And then no one will find your hack innovative because the rpg code will have been used as hell when you release it.
But in the end, it's your call...

BMFType (2bpp Game Boy format)

I should start a font archive on my website someday.

It will be hard enough to use. At least not like "zomg i take t3h lunar magix type some lololol text and my hack rox". You'll need to know about hex hacking and how SNES tiles are set up, and I don't think more than 5 people in here know that. An overusage is hardly possible, therefore.
Besides, I said I was gonna release a limited version. What you'll see in SMW: ALttP will be much, much more. [/advertisment mode]

@BMF, kthx.

No ASM required, right?
With "SNES tiles", do you mean the format used for the status bar and some other stuff? (1st byte: Tile, 2nd byte: Settings)

Yeah, no ASM. At least as long as you don't want to add functions to it.
With SNES tiles I mean how SNES tiles are set up in the PPU, and, yes, I believe it's the same on SMW's RAM mirror for the status bar. And it isn't exactly "1st byte: Tile, 2nd byte: Settings", but
vhp???## ########, with v = vertical flip, h = horizontal flip, p = layer priority flag, ? = palette number and # (10 bits) = tile ID.

although you dont seem to like me/respond to my messages(magst du deine landsleute etwa nicht? , i have to tell you one thing:

there IS a way to make a gradient hdma translucent textbox with only ONE hdma channel!
how, you ask?
simple, dont rewrite the palette via hdma, but setup your hdmachannel to write
2 registers at once, and select the cgadsub designation reg ($2131) as target.
dont forget to set your fonts background to colour #0 (transparent).
since youre using a static hdma table, set it up like this:

;no cgadsub
.db $7f ;scanlines to count until textbox
.db $00 ;register $2131, disable cgadsub on all channels
.db $00 ;register $2132, set cgadsub color to black


;textbox
.db $04 ;first 4 scanlines of textbox
.db $3f ;enable cgadsub on all layers EXCEPT layer 3
.db $aa ;select color

.db $04
.db $3f
.db $ab ;and make a gradient


etc.



thats how the pro's do it.
looks so damn sexy!

check these screenies out, they are from my upcoming breath of fire 2 german translation:

OMG!

This looks amazing!

When I first saw that I thought how amazing it would be to use this type of thing for a translucent fire on layer 3! That would be awesome for a fire pit or castle!! I think that would look great in SMW too!

etc.


That won't work that easily because (1) SMW uses CGADSUB for the backdrop colour, (2) some of my levels use CGADSUB for the level itself (->translucent water) and therefore can't be just switched to fixed colour addition/subtraction that easily without garbaging the background behind the textbox.

However, I believe I still have an HDMA channel spare, so the progress of this thing is only limited by my laziness.

btw, I, in fact, never knew Breath of Fire 2 was translated to English... that's why I never played it

whats even more amazing is that you dont even need an own layer per s
