| Brilliant! Now, I wouldn't call FDS hacking much harder... it's just quite a bit different. One of the biggest problems you may run into is that most emulators save directly to the image, just like a real FDS does. So just keep in mind that not all FDS images are equal. |

I have no internet service, in case anyone has missed me.  But I'm working on new DESnet software (one program which has been unofficially announced on IRC) so all's well. Perhaps you can start expecticting new releases, and such, Gavin? I dunno... |

NES classic ROMs are interesting. All of the boot code is encrypted and compressed to hell. The reason? *shrug* seems like a sort of copy protection.  Anyway, the NES ROMs are also likely compressed and\or encrypted as well. |

| *cough* The download link on the site is still pointing to v0.80 (rather than 0.81). You might want to change that. |

| Ah, interesting. The biggest problem I have noticed are the bugs in the zoom feature(s). Specifically, 300% zoom and the graphic filters. | |||

| I hate .NET, so I lied about having it installed and chose "No, I do not have .NET installed" because .NET is bloody terrible and awful. I hope .NET brings upon armageddon so I don't have to live in a world where .NET exists. Damn it! | |||

Originally posted by Jesper Hmm, perhaps you missed the part where I mentioned lying about having .NET installed. So, that answered your question. Just because I hate it doesn't mean I am not forced to use it every now and then -- that's just life. On the bright side, .NET's existence does not mean I have to write programs for it. That would be absolutely ridiculous. Personally, I cannot imagine why anyone would really want to go solely with interpreted applications. There's a lot of damn power in computer hardware these days, so why not make full use of it? I know I certainly don't want a high-end emulator or game running under interpretation. That would suck, no matter how many instructions per second your CPU could pull; because in the end, you're just wasting CPU cycles... CPU cycles which could be put to good use. (See http://www.distributed.net/ and similar projects.) On the other hand, it's an interesting attempt to bring multi-platform applications into a single package. Somehow that still doesn't make up for the cons. Two big thumbs down. P.S. .NET and Java are equally ludicrous. I do not care for either in the least. |

Originally posted by Jesper Shaw! I figure you could have distinguished the difference rather easily. Afterall, you did end up calling me a "ROM hacking veteran" ... That should be a good hint that I have at least half a brain. Maybe not much more than half, but at least half, you know? Oh well.  Oh, speaking of interpreted applications which attempt to avoid memory leaks and segmentation faults and whatnot... Did we all forget that even interpreted applications are not error proof? I mean, they aren't any less error prone, even. How many Visual Basic programs have you seen which exit with such-and-such error message? Probably quite a few, if you've used any VB apps at all. Just because the interpreter can catch an error such as "Subscript out of range" does not mean it's any better at preventing and\or fixing the problem than any other program. *shrug* |

| Master System and GameGear are the same hardware, with exception of the screen. Both use a Zilog Z80 for the main CPU. For 6502 tutorials, check out the DESnet documents page: http://desnet.fobby.net/index.php?page=documents Keep in mind that these are actual tutorials. Not just a bunch of silly information slapped together with the generic term "tutorial" used in the title. Because they are tutorials, the main purpose is not to teach you assembly, but rather to teach you some ways to hack assembly. The first tutorial in the series goes through a very limited amount of the basics of assembly, and directs you to the assembly documents on ZD and obelisk. That should be PLENTY to get you started on your way to ROM hacking freedom. |

| It seems bitmaster and I both ported Mario 3 Improvement to Windows. Just a little "inspiration" you could call it, hukka. ;D | |||

| I did a few hacks to the mouse handling, which fixes a lot, and breaks a little. Great job on Workshop. It's easily my favorite SMB3 editor. |

| I still suggest implimenting word wrap manually ... it's as easy as pushing 'Enter' every 80-or-so characters of text. | |||

| Yay! Finally, a reason to visit DESnet. I've added news of my latest project; a hex editor which I call CIEW. Visit http://desnet.fobby.net/ for more information. | |||

| It will... There are a ton of additional features that it will contain. Most of which I have not mentioned anywhere. The reason I am making the hex editor is because all currently available hex editors suck. And I need one that does not suck. | |||

| Absolutely. Both ARM and Thumb instruction sets for GBA, GP32, NDS, etc. etc. | |||

| Yes, Hex Workshop does suck. I have been using it since 1999, and it still sucks just as much as it did then. Unfortunately, I've not been able to work on this project for quite some time. And my being under heavy emotional stress does not help matters. So I must apologize to everyone for any additional delay which may be a result of the world sucking so damn much. |

| If you're asking that Workshop more closely resemble Lunar Magic, or even just comparing the two, please die right away. It is important that all of you do so before affecting the gene pool. |
